build

Has any attempted to build this combination. I blew my 3 speed transfer case and bought a Orion and trying to match the toy box to it. Dennis

Hello mudders, Just gonna start with a little background. Been a Toyota guy for some years now. I work as a parts guy at a Toyota dealership, and generally just love Toyota 4wd’s. I’ve owned 2 other 4wd Toyotas including a ‘94 LC80, an ‘07 FJC, and those are what made me want to stick with...

Hey all! After driving by an old friends auto garage/dismantler I spotted an FZJ80 sitting with weeds growing through it. Drove by for weeks and never moved. So one day I go in and ask him what the story was. It had been a customers who gave it to his grand daughter to drive and she had ran it...

I've been guesting and reading this forum for about 3 years. In 2020 I started modifying the 2011 GX460 I bought in 2011. Some photos are attached. In early 2021 I did some off-roading with her in Florida in the Osceola and Apalachicola National Forests. Very light going ,though I bent and had...

Last year I picked up a new 80 after having lots of regrets about getting rid of my last one. After looking for months all I was seeing were bros who wanted way to much for way to little. In the Pacific Northwest, the mere act of throwing up a rooftop tent can apparently double the value of your...

I wanted to make this to document the life of the FJ I recently acquired. I have 0 experience with them, but a large portion of my motivation for acquiring one is that my brother-in-law who I love and adore deeply is a HUGE Land Rover guy, and I thought this would annoy him the most, because A)...

I picked up this rust free LX earlier this summer. No engine but I have a few spare 1FZs around to rebuild. Same for the original 343 auto. Interested in what you 80-series enthusiasts think the direction should be. This Cruiser will be for sale once finished. Rebuild a 1FZ and run a good...

Having a hell of a time finding a solution. Anyone make them? Not a lot of custom fab options where I am located..

I don't know why it's taken me so long to post this here. Our Toyota Landcruiser has been in our family for over 30 years and has been passed down to me. It was my first car and I drove it all through high school. It has been parked for awhile due to a exhaust manifold crack and brakes. I'll...

I’ve got a 200 in the shop that I’ve snuck in between a couple of major 40 projects. One just done. One that’s about to start. This is a nice Mississippi 200 that’s in for Slee Sliders, Slee Front bumper, Dissent rear….Dobinsons update, tires ….. may be forgetting something Saturday I...

Hi guys, just picked up an absolutely immaculate 1992 HZJ77. It's been owned by and older guy for the last 18 years or so. Only 230,000kms, and 5spd. An absolute gem. Here are a couple of photos

I was asked by a buddy in our Land Cruiser group to build a custom bumper for his 100 series. If anyone is interested, I have been “loosely” documenting the progress. I downloaded a 3D model of 100 series to use as reference and for communicating a design to the owner. I then designed the...

Sup Mud. Figure it's time to start a build thread to keep track of my bull****. My first 80, Shannon, was a 97 Desert Dune Collectors Edition that I picked up in Dec. 2018 with 320K miles, 4.88 gears and ARB lockers. Picked her up and the next day drove up to @OGBeno house in upstate NY and down...

Here we go again. The River critter (bought with that name) is under the knife. Staring on the back and moving forward. 3 days deep right now. have the rear end built rear frame restored. fixed a f holes in the cab .

2018 Lx570 Owned since new (had been previously titled, I purchased it with 88 total miles). This has been a very carefully thought out build. Trying to maximize the fun factor, while maintaining all the creature comforts of a true daily driver (I didn’t do a drawer system for this reason)...

Ladies and Gentlemen, After 6 years of watching my wife drive out 2014 GX, I have taken it over as my primary vehicle. When we bought it I knew this day would come where I could build something I wanted. Huge thank you to everyone that has contributed to this site. I’ve spent the last few...

Hi all, I am the new owner for this 91 RHD JDM. I got her with only 80k miles. She already had new exhaust, fresh maint on birfs, 4" OME lift. Driving her home from the purchase, the master window switch broke, leading me to my initiation of the 24v world and sourcing unicorn parts from AUS and...

Feeler listing here for my GX before I list more widely. I purchased from Roam Overland Outfitters largely built in September ‘21. The original Roam listing with detailed photos is here: ROAM BUILT 2008 GX470 (SOLD) - https://roamoverlandoutfitters.com/products/2008-roam-built-gx470-sold A...

Picked up this 1989 FJ62 kind of by accident. A guy was selling a truck on Facebook marketplace and this gem was in the background. It looks like the original motor was removed around 180,000 miles and the PO had a LT1 from a corvette ready to install. The body and frame has zero rust and all...
