Chapter One: This Baby is finally mine.
Hi! Big fan... newbie here. Just picked up my first Land Cruiser and just crazy about it. After years of admiring from the side lines (Element / Tacoma), I finally pulled the 4x4 trigger and this beauty showed up.
Just shy of 200k, this ‘96 FZJ80 (yup, with lockers) was well appreciated & clean. I started with new tires, updated the sound system, dress up the stock wheels (powder coated black) and a little lift. Oh and I put in cup holders, lol. It’s a work rig with room for play on the weekends.
Definitely have project dreams and a bunch of off road toys on my Xmas list, but for now just getting to know the pure joy of the drive ....and taking a second job to pay for all the gasoline.
Please share your must-haves / favorite on-board tools (jacks, kit, compressor, etc) safety eq & accessories. Thanks!
