The buzzards have been circling around this one. Yes, I'm one of those damn buzzards. Occasionally I do a search at the local U Pull & Pay. They had a listing for a 76 Land Cruiser. Had to be a 40 or 55. I took a half day to go check it out. My guess is that it's been there a while. It's nearly...
Toyota: Land Cruiser FJ 55
First of all NO AFFILIATION.
I'm not sure why I'm bothering to post this. Maybe it's the fact that he calls it a moose, or the detailed pics of the torn up back seat covers, or better yet the many high resolution pics. Or maybe it's because the current bid is $6.55
Maybe I'm the only one who's been struggling with this, but I decided to scrap the whole oem wiper assembly after numerous attempts to fix it. Typical problems included, wiper links falling off the pivot arms under the dash, wipers failing to stop in the park position, stripped wiper arms , and...
I thought I would get this thread going. Here is some information to ponder:
A buddy of mine sent me this article a couple of years ago that pretty much set everything in motion:
$100 Power Steering? Yes you can. Use Column Electric Power Assist System (EPAS) ! - Ford Muscle Forums : Ford...
I've noticed after driving the pig over the weekend, especially at higher speeds, how sensitive the steering is. It dawned on me that when I had the alignment checked, they also checked the caster angle. I went back and looked at the print out: -1.6 degree on left front and -2 degree right...
A friend sent me this link. I figured you guys could appreciate it for the love of the craft. It's probably not the right forum to post this, so I apologize in advance. Just try to imagine this as a pig. It's kinda long, so if you get bored at least fast forward to the end to watch the test...
Anybody live near charlottesville, Virginia?

It has one side mirror at least. All the hardware on the doors would make it worth the asking price.
Let me first start off by saying that I know nothing about the process of re-chroming. A friend of mine told me about these guys; www.electroplatingelpaso.com
They charged me $340.00 including shipping for everything that you see in the photo below minus the plastic vent trim, they can't...
I posted in the general classified section as well. I have a 64 45lv and I'm starting to slowly collect parts that I need. The current tailgate is pretty rough and missing the handle and some internal pieces. The upper glass section is also missing the side supports. I would be interested in a...
Well I missed the last tailgate for sale here a couple of days ago:(. So I'm hoping that there is someone else out there that is cleaning house and needs to unload one. I have a 64lv that has a tailgate but no handle and appears to be missing some linkages as well. So a complete one would be...
I got some info from Mike at Bumpitoffroad. First off he is asking $800.00 for the bumper including powder coating. IF 5 or more people are interested, he will give us a 10% discount. I did inquire what would be the cost if some of you did not want the powder coating, and will pass that on when...
I was at our local U-Pull and Pay today looking for bucket seats for my build and came across two LandCruisers, a 88 and a 92. Both had fully intact engines and manifolds. I'm no where near thinking about converting to a 3fe engine but these don't come around here very often. So my question is...

I just saw this on ebay. Not sure if it's worth what he is asking, but it sure is beautiful .
I probably should have started this thread back in April, but the intimidation factor was very high. I was reading Pathfinder's thread and it really got me thinking, so here it goes. I picked up this 77 pig in Batesville, AR. Believe it or not, my wife found it on craigslist by her own doing. So...
Hi all,
I just recently purchased a 1977 fj 55 and drove her home from Arkansas to New Mexico. Mechanically she is strong but the body condition is a different story. I found a body shell from a 1974 fj 55 in really good condition and wanted to swap them out. I am new to the Land Cruiser...
