1994 FZJ80 Lockers, Lifted, Slee Goodies *New Price 9-18-11*

NEW PRICE 9-18-11

Well, it's time to officially put my cruiser up for sale. I bought it as pretty much a play toy to be taken camping, off-roading and light around town duty. And it did all of those things very well. But as it usually does, life changed. I lost my job along with my company car so the LC turned into my DD. And when I got a new job, it was 60 miles away with no company car, so the LC was getting a lot more miles than I had planned. Basically, I've put about 18k miles on her in the last 7 months. She may be big, but she can do the miles, that's for sure. But right now I'm just looking for something smaller as I can't afford to buy 2 cars, and I really don't want to put all these miles on the cruiser. So even though I know I'm going to regret it, it's time to pass her on to someone else who can use her for what she was built to do....

**Update** Price Lowered! Valve Cover Gasket replaced, Mobile 1 oil change, tires rotated, and full chassis lube over Labor Day weekend. Truck is ready to go for a new owner. I've bought my next car and the Landcruiser needs to go. Unfortunatly I dont have room at my new apartment for 2 vehicles. Pretty much looking for a cash sale at this time, but still possibly open to a trade on a sport/sport-touring bike + cash. $7200 OBO Located in Lafayette, IN (1hr NW of Indianapolis). Willing to meet buyer 1/2 way (within reason) for gas $$.

The Bad -

• The sensor for the front locker is bad.....The locker locks fine and can be tested, but the light in the dash blinks like its not locked, even if it is - Sensor may just need cleaned, maybe replaced, not really sure, but I rarely use the front locker and it's very obvious from the steering when it's locked, so i've never messed with it - Rear works fine
• AC needs to be recharged - It worked fine when I bought it, but got progressivley less cool as summer went on and I finally just quit using it
• Truck currently has a CEL - needs a new vsv
• There is 1 crack on the top of the dash above the gauges - right in the center , goes front to back, about 4 inches long - was like that when I bought the truck and I've used cleaners and lubes on the dash frequently to try and help prevent other cracks in the future
• Drivers side seat bottom has cracks in the leather - They are not very noticable with the seat covers, but they are there. The upright part of the drivers seat has no rips or tears, only the bottom cushion. All other leather seats are in excellent condition with no rips, tears or cracks. Front drivers side bottom seat cover also starting to wear from the cracks in the leather rubbing it.
• There is a small dent in the rear bumper and bottom passenger side of tailgate. Its hardly noticable unless you know its there. Looks like PO backed into a small tree. Also a couple very small dents in the hood, maybe the size of a silver dollar - again, not very noticable and these could probably be pulled out easily
• There is a crack in the sunroof glass - PO says it was professionally sealed and i've never had any issues with it leaking since I've had it
• Truck has some very, very minor underbody rust. Mostly just the axles have some slight surface rust on them where the paint has worm through. Has only been through one Indiana winter. The body is completely rust free
• There are a few "Pin Stripes" and a few minor scratches from branches but they are almost unnoticable (mainly seen on the black pillars between the windows) and could probably be buffed out easily
• Needs a new speed sensor at the transfer case. Speedo sometimes works, sometimes dosen't. I always have my gps in the truck, so I've just been using it for an accurate speed reading. Does not effect the Odometer....it works fine 100% of the time

Thats about all I can think of for now. I've tried to be very detailed and honest about the truck, I want you to buy it and be happy with it not have any surprises. I would be interested in a trade for a motorcycle in the $3-4k range plus cash. I'd love another Honda VFR, or a Honda RC51, but will consider other sport/sport-touring bikes too. Again, just email me what you have, you never know. No cruiser motorcycles though, please.

If you have any questions, or would like more pictures, please email me at higgin@gmail.com

Thanks,
John

Here are some interior pics......

Note......The seat covers look purplish in the pics, but they are black.

Where did you get the seat covers?

 

[80seriesnut]

Would you be willing to sell the front ARB bumper?

 

[adrenalinefjz80]

This 80 is a beast. John, sad to see her for sale (just like Lee), but hopefully she'll go to a good home.

 

[adamsclarke]

Nice, I see my old rigs pop up all the time. The truck was great for me and then sold to zombified and now to you. I'd buy it back if the timing was better. Bump.

I've wheeled with this rig a few times, very nice truck and John is a stand up guy.

John, how about some undercarriage shots?

 

[Higgin]

Friday night bump.

For those who have asked, I'm not parting anything out on the truck. It either sells/trades complete or I'll hold onto it and keep on driving it.

And good call on the undercarrige shots, Brent. I actually meant to do that a few days ago and totally forgot. I'll try to get some up tommorow or sunday.

 

[Fast Eddy]

That locker sensor is the same as the reverse light sensor in a bunch of minitrucks. It's not cheap from Toyota though...

Bump for a really nice rig!

 

[Higgin]

Thanks for the info Fast Eddie! I thought I had cruiserdan price it out for me a little over a year ago, but maybe I'm thinking of something else I ordered. Anyway, for me, its never been a big deal. Its totally obvious when the front locker is engaged anyway, and for as few times as I actually use it, its never been worth messing with it.

 

[Higgin]

Bump

Happy Easter!

 

[anthonycds]

Bump for a cool truck, and super nice guy

I had my truck into the shop today with some other service and had the same question except mine is with the back locker. They threw it up on the rack and checked it and it was a problem with the sensor. The locker engaged but the light still blinked. He showed me where the sensor was but like you, im not messin with it. No biggie, as long as the locker works.

Sweet Truck. Good luck with the sale.

which model cobra CB is it? it fits in there so nicely.

Sorry for the delay, but here are some undercarriage shots. The majority of the undercarriage is pretty much rust free, but I've tried to get a couple pics of the worst of the surface rust that is present. Keep in mind, this has all appeared within the last winter season, the underside was completely rust free before that. So it should be pretty easy to get it off and throw on a new coat of paint.

Pic #1 - Axles - Light surface rust has appeared on both the front and rear axles. Front axle is pictured and rear axle has a similar amount. Also note a small amount of surface rust has started on the front control arms but is minimal.

Pic #2 - Front Control Arm Drop Brackets - These are by far the worst pieces on the undercarriage. Not sure if they had a bad paint coat when new or what, but most of the paint has worn off of both brackets and been replaced by a layer of surface rust. You can also see the small amount on the control arm mentioned in pic #1.

Pic #3 - Frame/Lower Rear Control Arm - This is just a pic to show that everything else under the truck is for the most part is rust-free. There are some other small spots of surface rust here and there on the undercarriage, but pretty much everything else is clean. Frame is perfect. Besides the Front control arm drop brackets, I think most of the surface rust on the front/rear axles and the front control arms was caused from paint getting worn off of those pieces while off-road from branches, weeds, rocks, etc, and then the rust showed up when I had to drive the truck this winter.

Body is 100% Rust-Free!


I've had a lot of offers for interesting trades so far, but still haven't found that perfect car I'd be willing to trade the LC for. Again, if you are interested in my LC and have a car/truck/suv/motorcycle to trade, even if its something I didn't list, go ahead and email/PM me the details of what you have. You never know what I might go for.
