I have a set of 4 original 18" wheels off of my long-since-sold 100 series. Wheels are in great condition as far as I can tell (maybe a little dirty); I had replaced them with Methods/BFG AT2s and put them in storage in my in-laws' garage when I did.
Pickup only in Falls Church, VA. $100...
Fellow Mudders, I'm looking to find a good home for my 2004 Thundercloud Metallic (silver) Land Cruiser. I'm a long-time member of this community and this is my third LC (trying to catch up to a lot of you elders out there!); I bought and sold my first one back in 2004-2005 before I knew what I...
Long story short, I’m about to fly down to Georgia today to pick up my FJ62 and drive back to Virginia. However, my brother is in the process of shimming the front OME suspension and the bolts have completely seized in the removal process; no amount of heat or impact power will budge them...
There are a few threads on this but not one that really ties together which keys to get from where, where to have it cut, and how to program it. The FAQ has a thread within a thread that very well covers how to program a master key specifically for a 2004; link is here: 2004 LX470 transponder...
With some help from Mud, I attempted to install an aftermarket Pioneer head unit in my 2004 LC while maintaining full functionality of the MFD (including climate, backup cam, trip info, etc), and I can say without question that it can be done. I took out the factory tape deck and installed the...
Hello All! I'm one of those crazy idealists that thinks one day I'll have enough money and garage space to have a Land Cruiser in every flavor to choose from each morning. Currently have a 1988 FJ62 that I bought from the (brief) second owner in 2006, and recently picked up a one-owner 2004...
Hello everyone - I'm looking to become an active member of the 100-series forum after being active on the 60 forums for the last 11 years. I still have my FJ62, but have been in the market for either a 100-series or a GX470 for the last six months. Today I found this gem listed at a local...
Gents,
A proud FJ62 owner here looking for a new DD and camping/overland project. Almost had to get rid of my 62 recently due to a career transition, but the stars lined up and I'm now looking for a GX or a 100-series Land Cruiser (or LX) to add to the stable. As noted, this will be a DD that...

EDIT - NOT SOLD, BUT THANKFULLY NO LONGER FOR SALE (WHICH IS MUCH BETTER)!
I never thought I would even consider selling my beloved 1988 FJ62 – the Grey Ghost – but sometimes circumstances change, life gets in the way, and we have to be more rational than emotional. For a variety of reasons...
So there I was, strolling through my local military exchange, when I saw this new t-shirt from The North Face:
Came in multiple colors/sizes so I got this one for me and a blue one for my stepson. Would've been better if it was a 62 on there but I'll take it... :hillbilly: Can you imagine...
Gents,
I'm looking to upgrade the headlights in my 62 using the popular harness from slcfj62 here on Mud, and wanted to upgrade the headlamps to H4/H1s. However, H4s - and any non-DOT headlamps - are technically illegal here in VA (but H1s are okay). Are any of you running these and/or have...
So, I've been wanting to customize my cargo area for a while now, and finally designed a system built around an ARB 50qt fridge and a Camp Chef Everest stove. The box will have the fridge mounted on a slide on the far left of the cargo area (and I mean FAR left - the slide is JUST going to...
Gents, had a little mishap tonight: Ever had your wheel come off at 55 MPH? I did...
Been putting off investing in a Hi-Lift (I know, I know...) but need one now - like, right now. I can get one from Amazon by Monday for $77 for a 60" and $84 for a 48" (strange how the shorter one is more...
...about three hours ago. We were driving down the Fairfax (VA) County Parkway at about 55 mph when I started to feel a little wobble from the back - though it had been fine a couple hours earlier. Then something hard bounced off the driver's window or door, like a rock hitting the windshield...
Hi All,
I posted this same question on my swap thread but wanted to reach the widest possible audience. While doing a Vortec swap I replaced my stock radiator with an identical CSF 2708 radiator and wanted to install -6an fittings for the integrated transmission cooler inlet/outlets. However...
Hello Everyone,
Thanks for stopping by! I tend to talk a lot, so give me a few minutes and allow me to introduce myself, my brother, and the Grey Ghost. I'm a career Navy guy approaching the end of said career; for the last 18 years I've mostly been known as Dozer. I acquired the Grey Ghost...
Folks,
I recently went through some bad overheating problems that turned out to be a false alarm. Replaced my TSU with a non-OEM part that I got from an online vendor at the same time I ordered a new water pump, belts, and hoses (all of that was OEM; vendor did not carry OEM TSU). After...
Fellas,
Been going through some overheating/leaking problems but getting it worked out. Want to run something by you guys to make sure I'm not going crazy. Recently replaced my water pump, and while I was at it replaced the belts, hoses, and coolant temp sensor. After burping the system...
Gents, hate to admit I've been lurking here for a while, but still learning the FJ62 and my Jeep CJ experience does little good here. In any case, I've learned a lot so far from all of you and hope to be of help in the near future.
In the meantime, I need to ask for your help. I've done many...
