I caught the Land Cruiser bug several years ago. Always knew Toyotas were extremely capable 4x4's but really wasn't a LC junkie until the last 3 or 4 years. I have owned 4wd mini trucks and 4runners off and on for 30 years.
Anyway, purchased my 2001 Land Cruiser in October 2010. One owner soccer mom car with 137k on the odometer. I have fixed the easy stuff like antenna, rear wiper straightening, etc but did my first mod about a month ago. I have been waiting for nice weather to take pictures.
I removed running boards and bought a 30mm rear spacer from Slee and cranked my factory torsion bars 13 rotations. I refinished my factory 16" rims with Duplicolor graphite and ordered a set of 285/75-16 BFG AT Load range D from Tirerack.com. I think I am pleased how it has turned out so far.
I know that my CV boots have let go on both sides so I am thinking about new boots and clamps and possibly the Slee front diff lowering kit.
