I drove my '97 with 200k over 1100 miles (18 hours) a few months back. Have faith in it! After all it is a Land Cruiser, one of the most reliable vehicles in the world.

All of my A/C lights have went out, where'd you buy them from?

Along with the info above, there is one other issue I forgot to mention in the post. The passenger seat doesn't move forward or back, I believe the gears are stripped. Also, the driver's seat is missing the switch to allow the seat to lean forward or back.

The transmission is fine. I have not noticed the issue since I moved to Delaware. However, it could be because it is so flat out here; I've haven't tried reversing up a hill. Also, from my understanding the problem is easily fixed with a flush. I haven't gotten around to doing it as don't really...

The time has come to sell my 80. It has been great vehicle to me but I need to move on to something slightly smaller and more economical. Overall, the truck is in pretty solid condition. Sitting right now at 196k miles, has no mechanical issues and no rust (originally from Arkansas). The...

Dylan, I've been considering the new 3" kit as my 200k stock suspension is completely worn out. Does the kit include everything necessary for proper installation? I'm a little concerned about brake lines and driveline angle specifically. I've heard once you get over about 2" of lift you need to...

This is brilliant! I've got an emissions test coming up soon and have the dreaded P0401. I'm clear the code and see if I can use this to get readiness! Thank you for the info

Clean install. I've been looking to the same thing recently to charge my devices and such. Where'd you source the inverter and switches from?

Looking forward to doing the same thing one day. Great work man!

I think everyone here can agree Thermarest is the way to go. I've owned one for years and never had any leaks or issues.

I'm thinking of picking up a set of these. Where can I buy the ARB lenses?

BTW it has 191k miles. Not sure how long these trannys are supposed to last Yes it does seems to be lined up well. Look as if it's fully engaged in gear. I found the dipstick and fluid level seems to be fine and fluid looks red like it's supposed to be. Am I supposed to check the level when...

Just got my '97 LX about two months ago; came from a Jeep TJ. It goes everyone my Jeep did but much more comfortably and I know I've got the outstanding reliability of Toyota on my side. I'm never looking back!
