stuck in GA said:I read some of these answers, and here is the most straightfoward one.
stuck in GA said:When you take it for a test drive you can also see if it rides ok...
stuck in GA said:Also look for rust spots. You wouldn't think a 90's landcruiser would have rust but they do.
stuck in GA said:It gives you the comfortablity of a luxury car and the wheeling capablity of any other cruiser in my opinion. 80s rule!
stuck in GA said:and make sure to look out for clicking in the front which could be the the birfields and then you have to do a knuckle rebuild which I hear is a pain in the ass
stuck in GA said:You can still be knowledgeable and not do the work yourself. If I hear it from Urban Landcruisers that is a pain than I am going to say it. If you work on your own truck thats cool. To each his own big guy.
