    Getting ready to buy an 80 series hoping for some advice

    The 80’s are all high mileage and need restoration. The sunshine is great for rust but hard on rubber. I agree its a great place to buy cars for restoration but it’s hard on a daily driver and worse on a vehicle that’s been sitting.

    Getting ready to buy an 80 series hoping for some advice

    I wonder what your friend was expecting the hummer to be? It’s aluminum and only 6000lbs gross weight, it’s narrower than my 2018 Ram Power Wagon, shorter than a full sized 4 door sedan, and only 75” tall so it’s really not as big as you would expect it to be. With 16” of travel stock and the...

    Getting ready to buy an 80 series hoping for some advice

    I still own a ‘74 FJ40 so I will be around. I live in the desert of southern CA were off roading is mostly sand dunes, desert, and rocks. It’s rarely trail driving. The FJ has me pretty used to going slow lol. With the CTIS and stock 37” tires and ability to lock the differentials the Hummer...

    Getting ready to buy an 80 series hoping for some advice

    Thank you for your input. It really helped put things into perspective and made sense about the accessories. I almost bit on a landcruiser but I couldn’t get comfortable with the high mileage. I went a similar but completely different direction in off road vehicles and bought a Hummer H1

    SOLD HZJ-80 Turbo, 1997 40th Anniversary, E-lockers (Utah)

    I’m not sure where they are getting the information from but CA is no smog for ‘75 or older petrol, ‘85 or older for diesel. The only way you can swap to diesel is if it’s a diesel CA vehicle with CA emissions installed. I’ve had several lengthy conversations with CA ARB, DMV, and CHP. The...

    SOLD HZJ-80 Turbo, 1997 40th Anniversary, E-lockers (Utah)

    Was the diesel taken from a CA registered truck? Otherwise if the engine serial number doesn’t match existing CA DMV records or the vehicle is ‘84 or older it’s no going to pass AIr research board (ARB). Just thought since it was converted in CA you might have found a loop hole.

    SOLD HZJ-80 Turbo, 1997 40th Anniversary, E-lockers (Utah)

    Will this landcruiser be able to be registered in CA / pass smog now that the engine has been swapped?

    Getting ready to buy an 80 series hoping for some advice

    I’m hoping for a daily driver / trail rig. Go camping, out in the woods, use it tow the jet skis and around town. (My side streets at 60mph so I will burn out off road tires quickly) I agree with the accessories to a point keeping in mind wear and tear. I’m not against wrenching it but I...

    Getting ready to buy an 80 series hoping for some advice

    Hi, I’m getting ready to buy another Landcruiser. I’m hoping to replace the ‘97 40th anniversary landcruiser I used to own. With a collectors edition w/lockers. What mileage should I be willing to except? I know service history has a lot to do with it but let’s be honest 90% of the 80’s have...

    For Sale 1983 HJ47 Quad Cab - ex-mining rig in MA

    Due to the design they all have MAJOR rust issues. I’m in the process of buying one now with the painful reality of a very $$$$ restoration.

    For Sale 1983 HJ47 Quad Cab - ex-mining rig in MA

    You just need to be able to sit firm on it once it’s restored. Take lots of pics, photoshop them to show off the pretty detail of the restoration and wait for a doctor to bite. Having a business that specializes in restoration also gives it value because the sales receipt allows the insurance...

    For Sale 1973 fj-40 parts in No. California

    It was a originally sold in CA, so it probably is a CA spec. I’ll have to check, I currently have a ‘77 2F installed. Can I ask what the benefit of the CA spec is? I assume it’s part of the emission system? Being that it’s ‘74 smog exempt. It won’t need emission support. I’m getting ready...
