I rather unexpectedly lost this guy about two months ago. I miss him every day and I still find his fur in my Land Cruiser because of all the time we spent in it together.

What a sweet looking little guy. I am so sorry.

Must be nice to see such a clean and rust free undercarriage.

Wrong again. That's a completely different Land Cruiser and won't fit a 79.

Any idea why 70 series floor mats seems to be rarer than hen's teeth? Even buying abroad is near impossible.

I could be wrong but that looks like it was etched onto the frame recently.

That looks insanely clean and a great place to start! I'm jealous but excited for you. However I am always surprised to hear people say they prefer the newer Megazoid chrome grille over the simpler grilles. To each their own, I suppose.

Any idea how backed up Armageddon diesel typically is for this kind of work? I'm south of Boulder, and it would be nice to know of another garage who doesn't seem to mind working on 1HZs.

Hi Jan. My bet would be that you messed up the speedometer cable on the underside of your truck when you washed it. I've only dealt with this on an LJ78 but that cable is pretty finicky. I would check the connectors and see if that's the problem. I'm sorry if you already checked the cable...

I am also here to recommend the milspec clamps. I've had mine on for about four years and they've been great.

I have an HZJ77 and I am interested. I may also be taking a trip out to Boise in the coming months.

I am getting old. I hurt my neck today replacing a fuse on my HZJ77. The right headlight was dim and I fixed it with a swapped fuse, but if you know where the fuse box is on these I hope you agree it kinda sucks to get to.

Yeah, the wheels are great unless you have fender flares like I do. It's an odd look.

Thank you! No, they are 70 series steelies.

Those look great. I am not thrilled about using spacers, but I love the look of the wheels I got.
