My son and I bought this as his first vehicle. Went halvsies with him. Paid $10,700. 221,000mi with excellent service history. But he’s got a list of things to work on. Here’s the list… Tires (wants 33’s and different wheels) Replace filters Wheels (Maybe find some Tundra wheels for cheap...

Always wanted a LC or LX and I finally picked one up from someone I know that's owned it since new. 227K miles. Mechanically this thing has been well taken care of. Dealer maintained for 20 years with all recommended service done. Cosmetically it needs some love. Fender bender on the right...

Hey im new to ownership (yesterday actually). Got 94 one owner in REALLY good condition for a Midwest car but I have a few questions for the community. 1. Heavy steering…all I drive is Yotas and it feels quite heavy. Pump is working as fluid is moving. Is it heavy cause something is wrong or are...

Hey y’all, pulled the trigger on an 07 LC470 with 115k miles on it. Interior is great and engine is perfect, but got some rust to it. Most of it is “surface” rust, but there is some corrosion that has created holes in the rear quarter panels/wheel well area. Has anyone had any luck with body...

since my beloved 85 was stolen, stripped and left for dead in the forest back in April, I have since acquired a 2001 4runner. I must say, at my advancing age, it's nice to have a heater and ac. I even have a working clock on the dash. lol Several things to get used to though. The horrible gas...

Hi all! I'm new to the forum, from Denver, CO. I recently sold my Porsche 911 and purchased a 2015 GX 460, which I'm in the process of outfitting for overland adventure. It's a big change of pace (literally), I realize! Some people think I'm nuts, but that's okay -- LOL! :) I've learned so...

Hi everyone. New to this forum and a bit lost but trying! The newbie instructions said to post an intro under my model so hoping that is what I am doing! have an FJ and my partner in crime has a BA Tacoma. Looking forward to being a part of this forum.

Euhhhh, I feel like the little boy walking in the back room poker game! I'll just sit in the corner and watch /lurk🤤 Don't mind me if I ask a stupid questionsss.

Shewbie here, coming in peace. Looking to lurk for a while in Los Angeles. Have a lot to learn. Love this site. A couple of questions for yah. Where can I find the buyers guide for car models? Is it pinned somwhere? Can't afford anything but want to learn and experience more first. Any...

Dear Friends, Good morning. Today I got my hands on my FZJ80 I purchased this week, and managed to take it out for a drive. Its a 1993, Japaneese Model, 4.5, Gas, Stick Shift, 345,000KM and engine was overhauled 2,000KM Ago. It's got a few nice things, 4:88 Gears, Mickey Thompson Mud Tires...

Hi, I have a 97 Land Cruiser that I am slowly fixing. I love the vehicle and am prepared to take as long as I need to to make it perfect. Only limitation is $$$.

Hello dear Landcruiser enthusiasts! I'm 19 years old and just got to learning how to drive. My father has bestowed upon me this beautiful beast of a machine that he also uses for hes day to day activities on our property and getting around the area. A HJ61LG-MXW! Now as the title suggests I'd...

Hey everyone. First time LC owner here - purchased the 2020 HE and love it so far. Wife & I are expecting our first child and decided she needed something super reliable and safe. Didn’t think I’d love it so much. YouTube and these forums have been awesome so far. Decided to order some Slee...

In my first week of LX470 ownership, never had a car this tall or bulky before. Just as a reminder I bought this at 220k miles for $6700 from the first owner, it has always been in the Bay Area. PPI was fine, no rust and mechanically sound. The interior was pretty dirty, but nothing a detail...

Purchased this LC200 in Albany NY from the Yoda dealer's wife - a CPO with about 50k miles on it in Oct 2016. I did nothing except replace the tires with some 285/65/18 LTX A/T2 Michelin's - until a few weeks ago. Now ARB drawers, barrier and sides, ARB 47L Fridge, FrontRunner SL2, FR 2M...

Hey guys! For my 23rd birthday my dad gave me my grandfather's old welder. It's an old school Miller Thunderbolt 225 A/C only stick welder. I've done some research online and found out that it's a pretty good machine and I'd like to learn how to weld on it. I've done some welding in the past...

1996 fzj 80 stock I named her after a bruiser of an aunt I had long ago. LC pronounced many different ways. Up for suggestions. I look forward to my slow build and future trails and friends

*edit* I forgot to mention that this is a 1985 FJ60 I just recently cleaned out my carb thanks to the wonderful videos by Pinhead on YouTube. My truck was not passing smog, and after a mechanic refused to work on my carb until I took care of any potential vacuum issues, I am low on funds for...

So I am COMPLETELY new to the FJ40 scene. I live n Mexico City and found an old 1963 FJ40 in Guadalajara, it had been sitting for 20+ years (photos as found here FJ40 1965). The good news: It started up! The bad news: I have no idea what I'm doing but do know I want to keep it as stock as...
