As stated, working on a potential purchase as first time 100 series owner. Been patiently shopping and had a friend (LC enthusiast) say it was not concerning but don’t want to settle and wanted to hear unbiased opinions. Pics are from the owner, it’s a bit of a haul to check this one out so...
Got back from my trip to Georgia from California. Drove 7003 miles and logged gas for 6771 miles. Missed one tank. For the 6771 miles, I used 422.4 gallons. Overall MPG was 16, with a best tank of 19.6 MPG driving through New Mexico into Texas (I 40) and a worse tank of 12.5 MPG driving a...
Any ideas on how to pull the mileage?
Found a 2000 MY locally. Thinking about pulling the TC to rebuild to use as my core/donor for part-time spool (and maybe underdrive and 3.1 low). Would like to know how many miles are on it. No battery but can use a donor/jump box. Is there way to get to...
In the earliest of stages to do an LS swap on my 92 LC. Priced around FB Marketplace for a donor engine, and figured I’d give Mud a shot too. Let me hear what you got.
ARB in Seattle is currently rebuilding BP-51s for free and they don't need to be leaking or otherwise not performing to have them rebuilt. You pay shipping both ways. Both Slee and ARB have told me BP-51s should get to 60 or 70K before they need rebuild. However warranty is 30K. As my truck...
Hi Folks - I've taken an interest in my family's 1998 4Runner SR5 (only 137K miles), it's clean, runs smooth, all the maintenance is up to date and no rust at all.
I noticed the fuel gauge either reads empty or full. My conclusion is that the fuel gauge sensor in the tank needs to be replaced...
I have been tracking my 80s MPGs since the rebuild. Interesting to see the trend slowly increasing over time.
We plan on driving the rig from Mt. Hood to LA next week, so I am interested to see how some highway-only fillups affect this data.
Red dots show prior to rebuild. Average is 12.35...
Considering a “high” mileage (300k plus) 100 series LC or LX470.
Any one out there have 300k plus on there vehicle? How many miles did you put on it before it failed?
And for those with high mileage engines that havent failed how many miles do you have on it currently?
Anything I should...
Getting ready for the annual summer trip from Sacramento, CA to Winter Park, CO and back.
Always think of this while tooling-along and watching the scanguage read-out the rapid drop in MPG whenever the speed gets above 70mph...
Has anyone configured an air dam for their ARB front bumper?

I recently bought an FZJ80 from the original owner with complete service history going back to 2004. Truck currently has 125k on it and has been a city car/babied all its life. Last knuckle rebuild was only 20,000 miles ago. Although, that was 8 years ago.
I plan to take a trip from Florida...
Available for purchase is a 1977 FJ40 with 57K on the ticker. I have done my best to preserve this FJ40.
What can I say? Everything works! I have spent a lot of time working to preserve an original FJ. I have taken extensive pictures to document the preservation process. This vehicle was towed...
Is there a conclusion on what the primary reason for AHC globe failures are?
Is it the charge seeping out of the rubber over time? Or is it the constant exercising that come with mileage?
Im looking at two car this weekend that are VERY different so the question is AHC specific.
One is an 02...
I am looking at lx470s as a beach cruiser/kid hauler.

Keeping the "Wanted" threads going here in the for sale section.
Looking for a stock, rust free, well maintained, higher mileage (<150k) LC. No LXs at this time. Prefer black, green (yeah right), mag grey then white.
I actually tried to snag the mag grey 160k LC in Phoenix but it was pending...
Hi there - I have a 2000 LX470 with ~270k miles. So far it's been trouble free aside from a few minor fixes here and there over the years (this forum has been a huge help with those BTW). Just curious for those of you with high mileage 100's... is this even considered high mileage for these...
Toyota land cruiser
It's in Orlando. 74k on the clock, I just looked at it today. The guy seems firm at 4500$. Here is the deal, interior is in great shape, small tear on the right side of the driver seat, that's it. No lockers. Rust. Lots of it. There was some gear oil underneath, didn't...
Hey Everyone.
Just picked up a new-to-me 2001 Land Cruiser, 230k miles. I have had a 98', and an 03', before, I simply cannot stay away from the Cruisers. This is the highest mileage one, that I have had, and while not new to Cruiser's, I want to get everyone's advice on whether there is...
