Hi all,
Looking into purchasing an HJ61 to replace my current car, as my needs for overlanding/touring require something bigger, and with better capabilities. This won't be the first time a 60 Series has been in the family, but it will be my first LC, and first diesel and like any used car there is a degree of unknown.
This HJ61 comes with a 12H-T with around 300,000km, but I have read here and on other forums that this engine can go double that without much issue. The transmission is an A440, with a rebuilt rear end.
What are some things to look for other than leaks, and rust, while checking the car out? PO has owned the HJ for approx. 10 years.
Thanks, in advance.
