Love that video where he locks it and starts driving on pavement, turning the wheel back/forth

Or that previous video of where he locks it and you hear that pop when he turns the wheel

Yep. Whoever buys this may be as clueless as the seller. Shame, bc I wanted to bid but worried how much damage this guy may have done over 3 months

Do you think he’s even engaged them before those videos?
Hard to know. He clearly doesn't know what they are or how they operate. Can't take such an expensive gamble, but someone will

Yep. That’s definitely part of the question/gamble. The paint seems very good condition.

For anyone interested in that year, colorway, and with those same options here is another one. Triple locked, all stock with the exception of the 33" MTs. The odometer is broken. I have driven this rig. Pretty clean, a few leaks.

I posed the question on C&B on how often he engaged the lockers, seller claims only twice - at purchase and for the C&B listing. Still cringing from those videos

It is a nice color. For how long has the odometer been broken on that one on fb? Makes me uncomfortable, especially at that price.For anyone interested in that year, colorway, and with those same options here is another one.

@RuralTruck the odometer stopped working at 80K miles. If you search, this is a problem that can occur from foam getting into the odometer gears.

Sticky Odometer and Trip Odometer finally fixed on my FZJ80
I bought my first Toyota Land Cruiser, well first Toyota really, about a year ago. I have had a few little things that have bugged me on and off sense I've bought it. I guess little problems are to be expected in a vehicle with 281,000 miles. Today I tackled the P0402 code (fixed it but I've...

On this vehicle, I was more curious if it stopped working a decade ago or if it just happened. I feel like I’d rather buy a vehicle with ‘known’ mileage than a ‘low mileage’ one at a premium price that’s unknown, and as such hadn’t pulled carfax or researched this one much. But there’s a clearing price for everything given the circumstances, and my desires/willingness won’t be the same as others.
How much damage could be done from just that brief back and forth with the lockers? What are these going for these days, triple locked?

Looks like $23k plus fees for that one. Paint is really nice, but needs some maintenance/work too. Far more than I was willing to pay for something I don’t need.
Plus buyer's $1045.00 commission fee.
Holy shazz. Watched until the end. Lots of positives, but lots of unanswered questions and marginally presentation
