    80 Series as work vehicle

    This makes sense considering how amazing they are in rough terrain. I hadn't ever thought about that, but I also don't live in an area where that would be a thought.

    80 Series as work vehicle

    I saw a dude at the hardware store a couple of weeks ago in a BEAUTIFUL, all original (except the wheels) 88 Supra. He said he barely had 90k+ miles on it and drove it for his side business (sprinkler irrigation) because "I pay taxes and insurance on it, I don't want it to sit in the garage for...

    80 Series as work vehicle

    Hey Guys, Does anyone here use their 80 as a work vehicle; if so, what type of industry are you in? I was doing a few things around the internets and thought about this. I don't use mine aside from driving as a DD but not for work. I was just wondering. I did a little bit of searching...

    To trim, or not to trim

    I like who clean that looks! One thing I've thought about is that beautiful white with khaki monster lining for the bottom. Whether I keep the flares or not. I love that pearl white.

    To trim, or not to trim

    Yeah, that's part of what I'm trying to figure out. I live in a town called Mooresville, NC now and it's essentially all car enthusiasts. Like, everywhere you go is car-centric. One of the older guys who works part-time at one of my jobs stared long and hard at my truck after I asked for his...

    To trim, or not to trim

    Hey guys, I'm not sure if this has been asked in the past, and I know it's personal preference. I've been battling with myself for three years now about removing the trim and filling in the holes on my LX450. I like the more aggressive, cleaner look. Everytime I go out to do it and begin, I...

    Build My HDJ81 Build

    I am just, so jealous and mad at myself for not aiming for this level yet.

    Click-Click-No Boom

    Thanks you guys. I did try hitting the starter with a hammer, but couldn't get much "omph" behind it. I will try the broomstick idea and look into an entire new starter. Someone else mentioned an incorrect ground; I wouldn't be surprised by the incorrect ground since the previous owners...

    Click-Click-No Boom

    Hello everyone! I have an 80 series that's been acting up lately. For a few weeks it has been giving me a hard time in terms of hesitating to start or just clicking. I took the battery to get tested and was told that: 1. The battery is incorrect and not powerful enough (thanks O'Reilly); 2...

    First Responder Lights

    There is that route. I will go that route if I can't figure other things out. I'm hoping someone might have a recommendation for a kit that's always on and maybe in the front grill or tiny guys right at the dashboard or something.

    First Responder Lights

    Aloha All, I'm always lurking but don't post much. I am at the point where I am going to start driving my truck directly to emergencies to save time and need to add lights. I know everyone calls them something different from "courtesy lights" to "strobes" and everything in between. I just...

    Just moved to Mooresville/Charlotte area from Kona

    Aloha All, I moved from Kona to Mooresville, NC and wondering if anyone is around that might want to meet up or have recommendations of where to take my little truck. She came in last week and I am super excited to go exploring and camping and beyond! PM if you'd like to meet up or chat or have...
