Howdy folks - newbie here hoping to soon own an FJ55 instead of just a sideline enthusiast. Seeking braintrust input on Seller’s disclosures below and attached photos. Hired a mobile mechanic and received vague evaluation / didn’t get much by way of vetting the good, the bad, the ugly. So, I’m here to say hi and seek constructive feedback/coaching on what’s materially of concern/big ticket problemos/major headache issues v. the not so bad to worry about. TIA for the guidance and support!!

Front pinion bearing and front driveline u-joints have played.
-Front axle has grease build up and should be serviced.
-Leaf spring bushings are worn.
- Play in steering box and tie-rod ends.
