Where in Doral can you pick them up?

Well guys got good news and bad news. Good news is the 94 has tons of service records but the bad news is the 97 went way above my budget so im looking at the 94 now. The hunt will continue though!

Yeah thats the nice thing about the 97 is that it has an ARB bumper, ome lift and new tires on it already. Im prepared to do the labor myself I dont mind getting dirty!

I do have a preference in terms of color I just figured these things are so expensive its kinda trivial lol. The 97 is my preffered color combo its like a champagne sort of and then the tan leather interior. I definitrly feel you on the heat im in south florida and owning a black car is a mistake!

Thanks I do some reading and everyone says get the lockers and they would definitrly help but my thinkjng is save on some of the mods with the 97 such as bumper winch tires and lift and then spring for arb lockers in the future. Would you agree with that?

Do you by any chance have factory lockers? I researched 3rd gen 4runnners a while ago and I know the oem locker on that was prone to failing occasionally.

Hey guys so I have a little predicament here. Ive been looking at buying an FJ80 for a couple months now and ive been lurking these forums trying to learn more and ive come across two 80s that I like. The 94 has 164k miles and it has lockers but when I ran the carfax no service records since...
