1995 FZJ80. 170,000 miles.
Just discovered this small bit of rust on the front driver’s wheel well under the battery box and just behind the headlight...
It’s the only rust on the vehicle, so I guess should count myself lucky!
Anything I can do to keep it from spreading, apart from...
I looked at a 2009 tonight. It’s from NJ. The interior was in fantastic shape, the outside paint looked fine as well as I could tell in the dark.
The undercarriage had been freshly undercoated. I was laying in a puddle, looking around with a flashlight the best I could at places that weren’t...
Hey Guys,
I had my car up on the lift and was changing the oil and greasing the zerks and noticed that the under carriage is starting to rust. I have had it just over a year and it was really clean underneath and no rust. I got the car from near riverside and I live close to the coast in San...
Hey all, I am new here, but have a 1990 FJ62 that has a water leak after about 10 minuets of driving in rain.
The water was coming in right at the seam in the headliner, See picture.
I paid 500 bucks :( to have the windshield replaced and resealed... but still leaked... EFFFFFFFFF.
So then,
I...
Found a 2000 cruiser on the east coast with low miles (100K), but have concerns about rust on the rear axle of this handy. Being from the Oklahoma most of our vehicles are rust free. See attached pics and thanks for any advice.

Tried to remove by roof rack today - everything went well expect for one bolt on the center leg which had a lot of rust on it. Applied a lot of WD40, and then when I tried to torque out the screw the screw head got destroyed ... and it went downhill from there.
I have tried all kinds of things...
Is it to late to turn this beast back into its former glory? It came from Illinois, land of the salty roads that breed rust on metal. Pics aren't the best but you get the general idea of how bad the rust is underneath. Surface rust doesn't look to bad although it has been repainted so who knows...
Hit me up if you're looking to get your truck undercoated with Fluid Film. I'm not aware of anyone doing this professionally (I am not a professional) in Chicagoland so I figured I'd offer it up. I have the spray kit and I do it out of my garage for mod money. If you bring a 4X4 Toyota it's $75...
Hey guys,
Looking at picking up a 2004 GX470 that has great service record. However, my concern is when looking under the truck it appears to have fair amount of surface rust. Truck was in Kansas from new up until a few months ago. The truck overall is in great condition.
My question concern...
Hello, all.
Last week, I totaled my 2000 LX. Devastating. I have very little time to find a replacement, which of course is adding extra stress. Looking for another 2000 with less than 200k miles, and with solid records in Missouri or surrounding area. Obviously not an easy find. It took me...
My truck came from Virginia, and Michigan before that with lackluster maintenance history. I am rebuilding the front axles now and am stuck trying to decide what I should I do about these pitted swivel balls. I cleaned them up the best I could and used some rust converter on them.
I am trying...
Here's the thing. I live in the Middle East and I visit my boys in Virginia as often as I can. I've been looking for a Model 100 for some time--I own a 2001 model 100 with a straight 6 in Dubai which I love as my daily driver. I thought I had found the perfect truck on Ebay that I could build...
Posted a few years ago about this. Just had my second Krown treatment applied to my '98 LC. This stuff is very effective. A new Krown dealer opened up here in Michigan so I don't have to go to Canada anymore. For those who haven't heard of their process, basically they initially drill small...
Not sure if anyone has posted this car yet.
Was hunting on Autotrader when I came across this 2002 LC for $6700 (edit: They lowered the price to $6399)
Before I even looked at the location, I browsed the pics. It looked really clean! Oddly underpriced and it was being sold via a Toyota...
Would love some opinions on the rust in these photos. Been looking to purchase a Land Cruiser for some months now. Found myself an '88 FJ62 with about 180k miles. I know rust can be a big issue with the 60 series. Your thoughts would be appreciated..
Hello
I have a 1999 LX470. The part of the frame where tow hitch is bolted on is very rusty on one side. The other side is in good condition. I am just wondering how much weight can I safety tow at this point. Please see picture for details.
