Hey, to each their own, not judging.... Totally kidding. I dig your LV. I think they are so cool, I had one that lived it's life in Southern Oregon and had it for a couple years then sold it. I really wish I had hung on to that one. I had to narrow down from 7 land cruisers to 1 and it was sad to do. I have since started resurrecting my army but I don't imagine I will find another fj45lv. Looks like you are taking good care of yours!That might have something to do with the push rods not being in place. I haven't worked on this in a few weeks but my plan is to set the clearance when it's running. I need to finish replacing the fuel lines first among other things.
