[2000UZJ]

I think I found the issue...

Ring and pinion and carrier all have chunks missing.

Wowzer.

Bummer man. At least you have reason to upgrade now

 

[2000UZJ]

For the past couple of weeks I've been thinking of getting out of the Land Cruiser and into something different. After 14 awesome years the the 100 Series I made the ultimate decision to purchase something that I can enjoy all the time and not just twice a year off road.

I'll never forget my first Land Cruiser. It will always have a spot in my heart. My wheeling was getting too hard core for the 100 and I was beating it up quickly.I stepped back one day and looked at it, then realized I need a 40 Series.

I traded in 100 series for a Mercedes Benz E55 with 640HP and 780 Torque at the wheels. I cried when I saw the Landcruiser in my rearview mirror when I was pulling out.

I'll be back in a cruiser, once cruiser head always a cruiser head. See you all soon

All the best,
Nick C / 2000UZJ

I actually parked the 40 and wheel the 100.

I already purchased chrome aviator glasses, one gallon of hair gel, and an all white suit.

I'll be looking for a 80/100 in a few months.

I hope the diffs in the Benz hold up Thanks for all the great 100 posts.

Is the expo lighting business going away? I hope not some nice products you were bringing to market. Nice Benz..
Find you a cheap 80 and get back to the trails soon.

Sad day , in reading this post. Thanks nick for all your help on my hundy. If you ever want to just roll in one you can borrow mine any time while I drive the bj73.

Was the damage to the ring and pinion the reason for selling the 100? This was the first build I ever followed and took advice from, and I still credit you and your work for showing me along and introducing me to this amazing Cruiser community. I'm sure it's been a fantastic journey and I can't wait until you get back in the Cruiser game
