Hello Olde North State Cruisers,
I have a 1983 Land Cruiser I've inherited from my brother. It has some issues with rust spots on the roof and a few spots on the lower panels. I'm in need of recommendations of any body shops you have used and received quality work. I live in Carteret County, so...
I've noticed some rust coloration weeping from the door to the rocker panels. Should I take the rocker panels off and have a body shop repaint them, the door panels, and the body itself? Has anyone else ever had water drainage problems that lead this area to rust? This is a Colorado car...?
I'm planning on installing an H42 4 speed transmission and transfer case behind a 2f in my 1967 FJ45. I recently read a thread where someone did a similar swap into a 1966 FJ45 and had to add a 1" body lift for transmission tunnel clearance. Is a performing a body lift necessary for this...

I have parted out the bulk of my '85 FJ60, and what I have left for sale is
a pretty solid (definitely workable) body shell, on a
good frame (surface rust only, from what I could find), with
front and rear complete axles
Below are general photos of what I have...
two questions that are probably simple for you more experienced guys.
My LJ78 has some oil leaking around the top of the engine. I see this plunger on the throttle body and it seems to be coming out there, at least partly. Can anyone explain the function of this and potential fix?
Also, some...
Supposed one stumbled across the option to either purchase the cab with interior for a 79 Series Double Cab LHD or the main body with interior for a 76 Series LHD, but were only given the option to buy one...which would you choose??
No frames, engines, front fenders, or hood; just the body and...

On port "R" of the throttle body.. I would love to know how many inches of vacuum I should be reading at 3000 rpm? The FSM does not specify except to state vacuum.
I believe I have something blocking the port and it is NOT carbon. Maybe a broken wire or something similar from a previous...

Want to see which shop offers the best rates. I live south of Seattle...not a region of the country for low cost of living or low priced body shops.
Go...

I'm thinking there's very little an amateur can screw up on fixing the rust on my rig. The panels are flat, and replacement sheet metal for the tricky parts are widely available. There's no interior trim or upholstery to dick with, and I'm not a stickler for deadlines, originality or...
