    Searching for a red Fj60/62

    For those of you who were at Katemcy earlier this year, there was a red 60/62 parked by the pavilion on Friday that has also been for sale on Austin Craigs. Anyone know the owner? He had 6-8 people standing around talking about it. Trying to determine if its still for sale. Jim

    New HJ61VX Owners

    Well after seven 80 Series, one 60 and one 40, I am an HJ61 owner. I bought this truck: https://forum.ih8mud.com/fj60-fj62-bj60-hj61/760683-1988-hj61vx-12ht-pto-winch-clean-co.html I made a risky decision to herd it home without doing any thorough checkup (did check the lug nuts, ha) and...

    I'M BACK

    Well I made it about 3 years then relapsed. Here is my latest project, not that I needed one, as I still haven't finished my Boss 302 racer. HJ61VX turbo diesel. Frigging LCs are the bane of my existence:

    Atttention all lslc owners

    As many of you know, I own a 1966 Cobra replica and have been very involved with that hobby here in Houston since this time last year.

    1998 4Runner w AC problem

    Yesterday I made a deal to buy a 1998 4Runner for my teenage son. The seller says the AC system started blowing fuses last week and the clutch is making a serious racket. I am very proficient with Land Cruisers but haven't wrenched on the 4Runner. I know it needs a clutch and I assume I'll have...
