Basic Description
The legendary 70 series heavy duty Landcruiser came with the 13BT, 4 cylinder turbo charged diesel between 1986 to 1989, a follow-up from the classic 40 series. This truck comes with a 5 speed manual transmission (H55), split case transfer case (1.08/3.05 Marks reduction gears), factory AC (blows cold), electric windows, power door locks, factory PTO, 4.11 differentials, fiberglass removable top, electric mirrors. The truck gets over 19 mpg (US). The color is two-tone black and silver. The truck frame and body are rust free.
This BJ74 has been modified for expedition use, and only the best parts and equipment have been used, Toyota OEM or better quality aftermarket parts from Australia. I have an extensive maintenance history since I acquired it in 2006. Included is the backseat, spare front cab carpeting and Factory Service Manuals (engine and chassis), printed out in two big binders.
