Took my 100 series in for service and saw this 200 with a vinyl wrap job, old style "land cruiser" emblems, an aluminum roof rack, and atx wheels painted....

Left the white top exposed to show some FJ throwback love.

Not a huge fan of the build but appreciate the color, as well as, the vision and effort. My favorite part was the saddle leather interior (and it was from the factory).

My wife and I drive 100's and don't really see ourselves crossing over into the 200 world yet but couldn't resist the chance to photo a cruiser and share it with the community.

I don't like the wheels or the rack at all, but that wrap job, the color, the white roof and the emblems are turning me on!
 
Whereabouts in PA?
Ardmore Toyota, suburb of philly - off US-30 aka the "Main Line".

Owners truck (atleast for this week) he's obviously a cruiser fan - has multiple series he drives but loves his 40s.

It's funny, the owner of Koch 33 Toyota has a 100 lifted with ARB's front and rear, hutchinsons, etc - these guys could drive anything and they go for cruisers.. Another validation to them being the one of the best cars in the world.

Sorry no photo

Took my family on their first off-road outing today at the Red river gorge here in Ky. We were even able to get stuck, as in all four wheels spinning, rear axle burried and dug in so deep my rear bumper was flush with the ground, stuck. Rear air line on the locker broke some how so I got to use my winch. Fun times!

Stock arb lines? Considering braided lines next?
 
Yep the blue ARB air lines. Broke off right where the spring, pig tail, comes out the top of the diff. It's was a mess. Had to duck tape it for the water crossings, that's right, MacGyver style. Almost had to use two stickers before I found duck tape haha. I'll see whats what tomorrow. Hopefully there's something to work with and I can fix it.
 
Interesting find
 
Hopefully no crud got into the airline? So who gets to wash the underside ROFL :rofl:
It's all cleaned up now. child labor laws don't exist around here lol

Sprinkler underneath is Cali style. You can get those push pull splices real cheap I think they are for 5mm. ARB sells a repair kit with a couple of them and a length of tubing. You can go into any NAPA auto parts store and they carry a product called Synflex that is DOT approved that does the same thing. Personally I'll always go with a weak link that is easy to repair and repairing the braided could be problematic not to mention if it held something else could break that is costly. Better placement of any line couldn't hurt either. I went Harrop and carry a roll of cheap speaker wire LOL

Not sure if it was the cause, but the rear sway bar seems to flex more than expected and I believe that it did similar damage to my e-locker harness. It’s up and out of the way now but it may be worth double checking.
 
Good thought I'll look into that
Thank you
