Selling 1989 hj61 or trading for newer LC or GX460 for my wife’s realtor job. Would love to trade if possible. Only 167k ish miles, super clean undercarriage. In the last 8 months full knuckle rebuild, brakes, rotors, Fuji tie rod end kit, sway links, bushings, 70 series side mirrors, hood to cowl seal, steering stabilizer (emu), OEM battery tray, fresh fluids (coolant flush, oil, trans, diffs, transfer). 33” Cooper AT3 Tires have about 3k on them with matching spare and rim. Factory pto winch, cable lockers, 5 speed, 12ht, everything you’re looking for in an hj61. Also has full Emu 2” lift. Runs great with no issues whatsoever except for some smoke at start up on cold mornings. I’d trust this to go across the country, good oil pressure, perfect temperature always no matter if going over passes or mid summer on the freeway. I love this Cruiser and have had a 60 series for the past 32 years. The turbo diesel is such a great engine, and consistently gets 20 mpg.
Has some cosmetics to address, clear coat peeling in spots and had a repaint at some point. A couple rust spots to address along the roof and and cowl although the gutters are still nice and solid. Little rust on the inside of a couple of doors corners (not bad). A couple door windows won’t work the the drivers master switch. A couple of door cards need fixed, has a crack in dash, stereo doesn’t work. Overall very presentable as is and I’ve liked the fact that I don’t have to fear a minor blemish or 2 from winter driving or parking at the store although I’m pretty conscious of that stuff too. I have the original roof rack, running boards, and brush guard as well. This is probably the most sought after model. There is with all the features people are looking for. Selling to get wife a new vehicle. Located in Whitefish MT. $24,500. NEW PRICE $22,750

The last picture is what it looked like when I first got it. I took off the roof rack and running boards just to work on it. The roof rack was causing those rust issues on the roof.
The roof is still solid but needs addressed obviously, winter is here and I don’t have a garage to tackle unfortunately. Thx!

Would you consider a built 2011 FJ Cruiser?
 
No thank you. Really need to get my wife a friendlier daily driver. Would love to see a pic tho!
 
Still for sale?

Thanks,

Any chance you would be willing to sell just the running boards if the new owner doesn't want them?

The whole truck is tempting but I already have one with the same rust problems. It's a lot harder than you would think to fix it properly.

Yes, will let you know if new owner doesn’t want them. Luckily the rust isn’t in the gutters (surface stuff). The area in the back was from a rusty Jerry can mount that was attached to the roof rack dripping on it.
 
12v or 24v? See two batteries. Is one for accessories or not?
 
cool let me know on the boards.
I have a nice 61 they would fit on.
The rusty one is deflared and linexed no need for running boards

glwts…there aren’t many of these left with all the options
