My 91 with 3FE 256K miles, paid $1200, then it broke, fixed it for $300. I picked up some J springs, shocks and caster cor. bushings, 48x69 confer rack, have a rear locker to install, herculined it, built a huge stinger since the front bumper was gone, 35" BFGs also in its near future. I get 20 MPG HWy,if I drive at 55mph and about 200 miles out of a full tank if I don't watch my speed.

20 mpg with a 3FE??? Not to doubt you but I don't think it is really that possible.
 
1991 Land Cruiser. 141k basically stock, K&N air filter, catalytic converters hollowed with a cherry bomb turbo muffler, and it has all the routine maintenance done (cap, rotor, wires, plugs, fuel filter, timing advanced, lifters adjusted, throttle and kick down cables adjusted, and ALL fluids changed). It is two tone silver metallic and dark grey metallic. Everything works perfect, drives like a dream.

It won't stay stock long. I picked up mine 100% stock on 11/25/09. From then to now it has been rhino lined, added a 2.5" lift, 33s then 34s, put in an Aussie Locker, custom front/rear bumpers and custom sliders. I think this is more addicting than tattoos.

I did a recent road trip and got 330 miles then filled up, but wasnt even flashing the low fuel light. Not all flat land either. 200 miles to a tank is not 20mpg..:frown:

Big C,

Use the search field for your questions, i.e, search valves, best lift, lift, locker, rear locker ,etc. You should have all of your general questions answered by reading a lot first. If you have specific questions you can ask in each thread as long as it is relevant to the original post. As a last resort you can start a new thread and pose your questions but you might want to use a single thread per specific question.

Hope this helps! Welcome!:flipoff2:
