AAMC's latest activity

Hi, new member here. Still trying to familiarize myself with this place, but I guess I post the intro here? Anyway, I had a '93 f350 7.3idi back in the day. I was restoring it slowly, until it went into limp mode. I spent around 6k on a new...

At the Chatooga River today

Little mountain air time and some filthy dogs.

Of course my friend! Got any use for a "new" 28 year old spare? LOL!

Did you buy 5 wheels to make it "correct"? :grinpimp:

While others are modding up, I just finished out getting this rig to base spec! 😆 Only options remaining on it are the premium stereo and alarm system...

It is virtually impossible to ship those mouldings without damage, unless it is from Toyota to the ordering dealer. In that case there is no freight charge.

285 KO3, new front and rear mud flaps, and new rain gutter moldings!

Question, Does anyone know of any other models that had a rear bench seat? Also what size tires would you guys recommend for a vehicle like this without flares. Anyone running a similar setup with photos of their rig?

Good day, mud, The purpose of this thread is mainly to document the journey of this Land Cruiser. I unexpectedly bought this LC when I drove it up from Melbourne, FL a couple of months ago. I was driving it to my home in TN, to perform a...

From the article, talking about earlier models "After the engine, the only other notable value-add is if you’re dealing with one that had the optional front and rear locking differentials, which most folks will just say is a “triple-locked” 80...

Great short read for us 80s enthusiasts. https://www.hagerty.com/media/market-trends/hagerty-insider/market-spotlight/the-toyota-land-cruiser-80-series-has-reached-exit-velocity/

I'm going to stay out of the conversation on where this vehicle has spent its life...but to the OP, I get it. I picked mine up on BAT 3 years ago...did I pay a premium, most likely, but I got a great rig out of the deal that I plan to keep for a...

What turn signal "connection" point are you referring to? You haven't indicated front or rear. A "fast" flashing condition indicates a higher current draw which could be corroded pins in the connector, bare wires etc. There are two common...

Well, I just got back last night from spending two days at Ozark Overland Outfitters in West Plains MO. Jason and his crew made the whole experience painless. Knowing it’s my daily driver with long trips in the future Jason: * replaced weather...

My Dad was the greatest fisherman and outdoorsman I've ever known, echoed by accounts from everyone he knew. He held saltwater and freshwater fishing records, could shoot a penny in the air with a .22 rifle, had harvested everything from elk to...

Damn, I’m looking for a pristine set of LX450 front floor mats. I can only hope that they are somewhere sitting in someone’s garage, and I’ll be there to scoop them up!

Getting ready for the hand over…basically unused and remarkably not lost…

3rd slider leg tacked in on both sides. This was yesterday, both legs are welded on now and the sliders got prepped then sprayed with 2K epoxy primer. I will coat them tomorrow with Rapor Liner. EmKieth skid/bracket all done. Tossed in a...

Haven't updated in quite a while. On the '93, head gasket surgery was a success, the annoying whistling sound was finally (after ~ a year... :rolleyes:) found to be caused by a small hole in the lowermost hose on the S/C, transmission solenoids...

Here ya go: 80 series U.S. Domestic Market Poverty Pack Registry

I have a poverty spec Prado and would love an equivalent 80 series. Neat truck. Is this registry published somewhere?

Chipped away all the old sound deadening as it was impregnated with oil and permeating thru the carpet. Installed new stuff. Took forever! Spliced the wiring into a junction box where it will split to the diferent lights and trailer wiring from...

Wonderful story and rig.

It's definitely rare, and I would argue that the US spec "poverty packs" are less in number than what was manufactured for the rest of the world. The interesting thing is that we have varying levels of USDM poverty packs in the US. I keep a...
