I never posted the price.

Ateast it's a 96 so it'll have the 4.5 vs the 4.0. And yeah, is expect to have to start doing maintenance stuff sooner than later.

179k miles and supposedly no rust. Don't see any in the pics. Seller is 2 hours away so I need to make arrangements to check it out in person.

Thanks. I am mechanically inclined but not a motorhead so I do need instructions most of the time when working on my vehicles. But I do try to do as much work myself as I can. That was another concern, availability of parts in the US since this particular truck is an import non-US model. I...

Locally for sale. Gas engine. Auto transmission. Center diff lock only. Has 317k miles. Is that too many miles to not expect issues sooner than later? Great looking truck but for just a bit more I can get a JDM import diesel with almost half the miles.

Yeah, there's a handful of good looking stock trucks here for decent prices. I was interested the one I posted about mostly because of the maintenance stuff done to it plus the extras like the lift, bumpers, wheels....stuff I'd be doing to a stock one anyway.

So, seems there was frame rust that was repaired. For their $16k asking price with a repaired, I passed.

Planning on going to look at a 2006 with the V8. Anything I should pay special attention to when checking it over? Seller said timing belt was done at 90k but truck currently has 210k. Claims no rust and some other maintenance stuff done like brakes and new UCA's. Lifted with a Toytech/Bilstien...

Also, I asked about the frame so waiting for a response. Sale thread says no rust but I'll see what they say about why it's reinforced.

230k miles.

Debating on a Gen 3 4Runner or an 80-series Land Cruiser for a project. Plans are just to have for short trips, camping, mild off-roading. Found a nice looking (in pictures at least) 2000 4R locally with a nice list of work that's been done including: New belts including timing belt New brakes...

New guy here. New to Toyotas. New to the 80 series. Might not be the best (or maybe it is) first Toyota to jump into....but I'm looking at a 1990 HDJ81. Assuming it's in overall good condition with no majors issues, what should I expect to pay? The one in particular I'm interested in locally has...
