I couldn't agree more! Lockers aren't magic. Once I find the right cruiser I'll spend a good bit of time becoming intimately familiar with it. I believe I will go with 33" tires that skinnier than I originally thought I wanted. Very light lift if any, maybe 1.5" at most as I don't want to change...

Our goal is to visit almost every country and every continent over 2 years. Much of our route is planned and we are now in the phase of selecting gear, and fine tuning our times and routes. Reading about others journeys it sounds like the lockers will be needed.

Doing a world tour next year, hopefully in a yet to be found land cruiser. Trying to decide on lockers. Factory is great but it seems like the ARB or Harrop options are just as good if not better. Do I need them or is it a want? ARB or Harrop just as good as OEM?

If not sold, I may be interested in coming to have a look. LMK

Congratulations to somebody. I was close but trying to hold out for an LC.

I like it your vehicle and I like your way of thinking. It's in the right price range for me. The ONLY thing that keeps me from moving is I really want a land cruiser. Stupid I know. GLWS, it looks like a great vehicle.

Great thread with options for new carpet. My question is why you wouldn't just continue to use the OEM carpet that is fortunately still available from what I can tell. I have that added into my costs of baselining a cruiser that fits my needs. Who wants moldy oldy carpet. I want the fresh smell...

Wow, just found this thread! Once I find the cruiser that fits my needs this will be on the short list of needed mods. 🍀

Paint it and enjoy it.

It's locked and the right color but the price seems a little steep for what Im looking for. GLWS

I like the cruiser and would think $5K is the right price if the headgasket were done.

Headgasket doesn't constitute a rebuild. Sellers need to be more clear and hopefully provide receipts for what was really completed.

What does the rust look like underneath? It would be great to see some pictures.

I somewhat agree. Though if I am going to replace the parts on either a 150K mile cruiser or a 350K mile cruiser I'm going to do it on the 150K. Just me. The cruiser posted above has promise.

Not sure if I want to tackle learning diesel engines yet. Hopefully I'll have the $ left over to get a large subtank and a roof rack to hold additional jerry cans. My thought on a low mileage is this though I have no facts to back it up. If you buy a low mileage cruiser then baseline it and...
