This is just my personal experience of the J100. This particular copy, from the pictures, looks good. And given you don't live in a rust belt I'd assume the undercarriage is fine. My uncle has had a J100 for over 15 years, and it's mostly been trouble free apart from minor service things like...

Not that I'm looking for any help (although maybe shipping of some shrooms or maybe a shrink or two wouldn't hurt). Had this absolute brainfuck of discovery on my gf's recent Hilux purchase when replacing the front struts for OMEs... Couldn't figure out why the upper control arm hit the coils...

You put 75W-90 in the transfer case, and an ATF fluid into the transmission. You could probably run both on olive oil (a proper Greek one) and they'd be fine though I don't recommend it.

I'm sorry what? My J73 is on 42" and I never had this issue. I just have a steering stabilizer and no hydro assist (yet, will probably add it later just for the funs) Is your steering stabilizer working? Any play in the steering rods? This to me kind of sounds like a bent wheel or something like...

I have to admit, I don't remember whether the HZJ73 has 55" or 58" track width. But I do remember that the J80 has 62.2" and 63" axle width depending on year. It is a significant width difference so be mindful of other issues that might arise like fender flares, might have to trim the fenders...

Avoid it as flaming hell. I spent the whole day trying to figure out the HVAC controls, and eventually gave up, restored it to the defaults (apart from the cameras I installed) and I'm going to advise my uncle to buy a real double din pioneer/alpine/somethingnotchineese instead.

Did anyone have any luck finding any kind of manual for these radios? My uncle bought one of those units from Rhino and it came with instructions at all, but at least most of the wiring harness seems to fit, although I'm having issues with the climate control. They did reply rather quickly via...
