    SOLD  Los Angeles 1997 Triple Locked Land Cruiser

    Full pictures available here: I’ve been the owner of this Land Cruiser for the past 4 years and have driven it regularly across the western US without a single problem. It is a rare and desirable color combination still in great shape for being over 20 years old. This truck is extensively...

    I'm in the Los Angeles area. I don't have the third row seats for it.

    Would like to see this go to someone from MUD who'll take it on a lot more good trails. Make me an offer!

    Frame is good and rust free, it's been a southern california car its whole life. Just your typical surface rust on the exhaust, otherwise looks good. The "rust" is a little surface bubble that was where clearcoat had peeled away and it hasn't changed in any way in years.

    For some reason it didn't notify me that anyone had replied...here's some interior pics. I'm open to offers.

    I picked up another 80 that's in nicer condition to keep for the long haul rather than spending money on a good trail rig. Interior is decent (both front seats are beat), everything works, shortwave radio included. Exterior is typical dings and scrapes from 4x4 use, no real rust aside from a...

    Wanted Fj-80 in So-Cal

    I saw this one a few hours after it was listed. Was posted for $6500. I called the guy and he said "Sorry, I already sold it" and then I noticed the ad was relisted for $10k. Must have got a lot of calls in those first couple hours. Good luck in your search! I'm keeping an eye out for a real...

    Did about 1200mi trip this past weekend and topped out about 6500'. Sometimes the truck had full power and could easily climb grade at 50mph and other times barely get to 30 on the same road. No noticeable change in shifting or driving (other than power loss) inbetween. No more gas smell at...

    Oh...I'd pull the cats myself, but the bolts are basically just a rusted mess which is why the shop opted to drill the hole. He'd have happily just replaced the cats, but out here in CA that's a $1,000+ repair bill

    The exhaust shop drilled a hole in the pipe and looked at the cats with a scope and to test the rest of the exhaust they put pressure through the hole out the back (from what they said). It did pass smog very well about 4 months ago. I reset the ECU after every change I make, I have a quick...

    I'm going to be get a friend over tomorrow...that's about all I can think of at this point, something screwy with the throttle and it's not opening 100% I flushed the transmission and checked the torque converter too just as an aside.

    Okay, new EGR installed now too...still not much of a change after putting some miles on it. With new EGR modulator the truck ran better, but that mostly translated to smoother power delivery. For reference, at Sea level driving up an 8% grade hill from a stop I can get up to 30mph and just...

    Fuel strainer looked new when removed, I replaced it anyway with no change on the drive. The tank inside looked very clean as well, so that's a plus. Replaced the EGR vacuum modulator and things seem MUCH improved. Hard to tell without a good long freeway drive, but on my test run tonight it...

    I sorta assumed that if fuel pressure was good at the fuel rail under load, then there would be no issues with the way it runs.

    Finally got a good drive in. Definitely a bit better with the charcoal canister, also no more pressurethane built up in the gas tank. The EGR also looks like it's not working well in testing, so I'm going to replace that as well. Timing is good. Otherwise the screen in the tank is the only...

    Just put on a new charcoal canister, going to give that a shot and see if I notice anything different. The cats definitely check out okay, had an exhaust shop check everything out to give it the thumbs up in case I missed something.

    Air filter is new, fuel filter is new. Pre-filter in the tank I haven't checked. Charcoal canister/evap issue I'm going to look at today, especially since it has smelled like gas at times and I do get a lot of pressure release when I remove the gas cap. I unhooked the battery yesterday...

    Yes, back at sea level for at least 300mi now with same issue (power is better than 10,000', but still bad). Charcoal Canister is something I haven't checked yet, I'll run a test on that! Vacuum seems good over all and haven't been able to find any leaks yet, but that's worth continued...
