    SOLD  Goldendale, WA: 1986 HJ60 LHD

    For sale is my 1986 Toyota HJ60. It has the 2H diesel, 5 speed manual transmission, and of course 4x4. It’s registered in Washington State and located in Goldendale, WA. I imported it from Canada myself, and have since spent a ton of money on it. If I keep it, I’m going to keep spending tons...

    HJ60 2H Diesel Hill Climb Action Video

    While I was shopping for 2H and other diesel Land Cruisers, I noticed a severe lack of videos on the Internet which detail these things just tootling along. Most videos are showing off a recent turbo install. I made a quick and dirty video of a ten minute hill climb flogging my stock 2H HJ60...

    New clutch and bearings, new noise?

    Good afternoon, I recently replaced the clutch, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, and resurfaced the flywheel on my 1986 HJ60. All of this effort was done to fix a noise coming from the pilot bearing. The noise went away with the new bearing, but now it seems that the throwout bearing is making...

    2H + H55F Removal Help

    Good evening, I'm not quite halfway through replacing the clutch on my '86 HJ60. Everything is disconnected and all of the bolts are out. The engine is supported by a floor jack, and the transmission is supported by a transmission jack. After trying for several hours today, I've only managed to...

    Who is the person with a brown and tan 60 on WA Hwy 142?

    I've seen you twice now, and the spottings have been months apart. At first I thought you were a tourist, but after seeing you again today I know you must be a local. Come clean and I'll share my garage and tools with you. I've got a silver HJ60.

    2H loping idle?

    Howdy! I took my 2H HJ60 and my dog out for a grocery run to town today and noticed something unusual while warming up. Right off the bat, the idle was loping. No A/C, no lights on, nothing unusual. It was a rhythmic pulse, and it wasn't threatening to stall or anything, but this is a new...

    2H oil pressure and water temperature holes

    Good afternoon, I'm installing a mechanical water temperature and oil pressure gauge set in my '86 HJ60. Are the two holes pictured below for oil pressure (circled in black) and water temperature (circled in blue)? This picture is looking at the engine from the right hand side of the engine...

    2H Exhaust Downpipe Studs

    Howdy! I was replacing the exhaust downpipe donut gasket today on my 1986 HJ60 with the 2H engine. I was able to find the gasket and new nuts for it from Toyota in the states, but I couldn't find the part number for the studs. One of the old studs is not in great shape and came out in one piece...

    Half-a-crank warm starting secrets?

    Howdy! Are there any methods or tricks to get a 2H to fire off immediately when warm? I'm talking about the starts where you barely bump the key and she's purring. Those half-crank starts are really impressive! I've experienced a few of them with my rig, but not very often. Lately it has been...

    One of these U-bolt plates is not like the others - thoughts?

    Howdy! I'm doing an OME lift to my '86 HJ60. The front's done, and now I'm on to the rear. After getting the U-bolt plates off to clean them up and paint them, the one on the rear right is not quite right! Do you think it's a good idea to keep using this part or are there better options...

    Wanted  60 slider windows

    Howdy! Do you have slider windows for a 60? Let me know! My dog would like them. As far as I know, 60s in the USA and Canada had solid windows. My HJ60 that I imported from Canada certainly does. In other parts of the world, it seems that these slider windows are getting thrown out in favor of...

    Secrets for removing leaf spring pins

    Toyota part number 0448260040, the leaf spring pin for a 60 series Land Cruiser. If left alone for thirty-six years, it is a real pain to remove! While very sturdy, the design is prone to seizing up and options are limited for extraction. I'm in the middle of installing an OME lift kit on my...

    For Sale  60 series 3D printed OEM-lookalike speaker covers

    Howdy! A little while ago I posted a build thread of some speaker covers that I designed and 3D printed for my 1986 HJ60. I've sold pairs to a couple of Mudders already, so here they are in the Classifieds. I've refined the design a little bit and sourced some hardware to fit the theme. A...

    3D Printed OEM-lookalike Speaker Cover Build

    Howdy! My '86 HJ60 only came with one (sort of) intact speaker cover. Not satisfied with the naked speaker, I decided to design and 3D print a replica. Regrettably, I broke my one good cover as I was trying to take it off, so I guess I'll have to make two of them. It could use a sanding and...

    2H smoke/steam characteristics in cold weather

    Howdy! I've got a 1987 2H diesel in my HJ60 Cruiser. This isn't my first diesel by a long shot, but I've noticed an interesting characteristic about the warmup cycle. On cold mornings (below freezing), it produces the expected gray smoke for thirty seconds or so. It then clears up briefly, then...

    HJ60 plugged fuel supply, trouble priming

    Happy new year! It's not quite so happy for my 1987 HJ60 with the 2H diesel. Last night I was driving home and it was around eight degrees F. The rig started up fine, and idled for a few minutes. After I got on the road, it started losing power and acting like it was starving for fuel. It...

    HJ60 OME suspension kit USA sources?

    Howdy! I'm wanting to replace the stock-from-factory suspension on my 1986 (1987 frame) Canadian HJ60 with all of the Old Man Emu fixings, and then forget about it for the next couple of decades. When I was running combine harvesters in Australia and first learned about diesel Cruisers, OME and...

    2H HJ60 No Glow No Crank

    Good evening, I was replacing all of the V Belts on my 1986 HJ60 tonight, that went well enough. However, when I went to start the thing and see how things are getting on in there, it wouldn't start! It doesn't glow and won't try cranking. There was a spark when I brushed a tool across the top...

    Mud flaps? Aftermarket or DIY

    Howdy! It would be nice to keep the wet road debris off of my 60 in order to preserve it while also enjoying it. Do any of you Mudders have tips on any robust and utilitarian solutions? Thanks! Phil

    60 Series Spare Tire Lowering Tool

    Howdy! I'm getting to know my new Canadian HJ60. Five new wheels and tires are nearly ready to go on, but my car is missing two of the four pieces to the spare tire lowering winch tool! The winch looks in better shape than some of the basket cases posted here, but it's soaking in WD-40...
