1990 HDJ81 VX Limited
313,000 km / 195,500 miles
1HDT Turbo Diesel
Triple Locked
Automatic
̶2̶5̶,̶0̶0̶0̶ $18,500 OBO.
- open to trades, trades+cash (80 series, 100 series, FJ62, 3rd Gen 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, 1st gen Tacoma) Preferably lower mileage, close to stock or mild lift, rust free, recent CA smog would be nice)
- Purchased this rig in March 2023
- feel free to ask any questions, but I'll list everything I can think of now
The Good:
- averages 19 / 15 mpg
- Factory Winch w/controller
- Factory Center Consol Fridge
- 2.5" Lift
- Nomad Sahara 503 Wheels (approx 3000mi)
-315/75r16 Falken Wildpeak AT3 Tires (approx 3000mi)
- new aluminum radiator (installed by PO in early 2023)
- recently rebuilt starter (PO early 2023)
- EGT and boost gauge
- 3" exhaust
- ARB Safari Snorkel
- Jaos basket rack
- new brake pads (approx 3k miles by PO)
- Timing belt, BEB, birfields, done at approx 187k miles (PO)
- sunroof works! and doesn't leak
- new wiper blades
- interior in great shape
The bad:
- clear coat failure
- tint is ripped and peeling in a few places
- driver's side seat heater doesn't work
- front and rear lockers sometimes slow to engage
- Some undercarriage rust. I've cleaned up some of it (wire wheel, OSPHO, Rust Oleum). Nothing too concerning though and frame is solid.
- front wheel wells are pretty rough with a few small holes rotted through
- no speakers in front door and the remaining speakers leave a lot to be desired
- key doesn't work in passenger door
- slight pull to one side under braking at times (sticky caliper?)
- AC does not blow cold
- cruise control works intermittently
- passenger window switch only rolls window up (not down), but driver control works for all windows flawlessly
