Sale pending!! I should have it by this evening assuming it all goes well.

@marcfj60 Yes its clear this has been very well maintained, and the biggest reason I'm pulling the trigger on it. I'm still not sure on the all-white look, but I figure I can always 3M wrap the car to a beige or maybe the just lower side moldings if I still don't like the white in a few months.

@Ramathorn15 Thank you a TON for finding this!! As a finder's fee I think I owe you a case of your favorite cold ones and a second hand on your next project.

Congrats!! I think there's some unwritten rule that all Expedition rigs must be white. Maybe I saw it on Expo Portal?

Congrats! I have techstream if you want to check on the AHC system. You definitely got an awesome deal. It looked about as good as possible.

 

[ajy4490]

@Ramathorn15 I will probably take you up on that! I did the quick AHC test yesterday by counting ticks on the reservoir in H and L modes. Counted 9 ticks, which means the globes _should_ be good (I read 7 or more is ok). But I know I need to balance pressures with cranking torsion bars, and techstream to get those readings.

 

[Ramathorn15]

Yup. 9 is a good sign. I'm pretty well versed in the system so don't hesitate to PM if you have questions. I'm more than happy to get it as balanced as possible for you too.

Cargo barrier for a 200 series

link: The worst ever Toyota Landcruiser 200 series cargo barrier | Other Parts & Accessories | Gumtree Australia Townsville City - Garbutt | 1096796352


Seller's description
Sick of that cavernous cargo area in your Toyota 200 series?
Want the practical space reduced to such a small, impractical size that a decent fridge won’t fit anymore?

Want a cargo barrier design that makes you and your friends laugh at its ridiculousness every time you see it?

Then look no further. I have a genuine Toyota cargo barrier for sale.

Allegedly designed by drunk Toyota engineers at the Christmas party just to annoy their customers, this design takes everything tried and tested by other cargo barriers designs over many years and tosses it out of those noisy electric windows.

While almost every other design on the planet keeps their top mounts high and out of the way to avoid both the curtain airbags and the cargo, Toyota has decided that all long distance travellers will definitely leave the third row seats in place just in case they are away so long, they return with more children that they left with, and will not mind two intrusive diagonal steel straps projecting into the cargo area beside the folded seats.

Unfortunately I bought it sight unseen from Mike Carney Toyota in Townsville, who will not refund my money, stating that this barrier is fit for purpose.

Well I guess in their defence, it is fit for most people's purpose…..because I understand that 90% of 200 series Landcruisers are purchased for the ability of that stonking great V8 engine to carry the upper middle class suburbanites around town in superb comfort to their hair dressing appointments in between coffee shop sojourns and kale purchases. And the cargo barrier indeed suits this purpose very well. One would not want a shopping bag full of Kale and Nespresso capsules flying through the air as one brakes heavily to prevent the immaculate colour-coded winch bar striking the private schooled child prodigy leaping from their Lexus at their daily advanced calculus tutoring session.

As much as I would love to keep it for the entertainment value (everyone who has seen it has laughed at my cargo barrier), I would like to actually attempt take my Landcruiser on long trips and maybe (surprisingly?) even off-road, so I do need to acquire a proper, functional cargo barrier so I can carry more than a Corolla. So I must regrettably sell this masterpiece to pay for a real one..

So if you would like to purchase for yourself a copy of what is perhaps the worst ever cargo barrier design in the world (although it was a closely fought competition with old Jim’s homemade barrier constructed of old security screen, VB tins and chicken wire) then feel free to purchase this fine piece of railway engineering.

It will come with the bolts, but you may need to buy a mounting kit, as I have no idea exactly how it is fixed. I am surprised that they didn’t just use velcro, as they don’t seem to expect anyone to actually carry anything substantial in there.

It is fitted to my vehicle, but it hasn't had any wear and tear as I CANNOT FIT ANYTHING IN THERE!

A suggestion from an internet forum was to turn it into a big BBQ grill. Not a bad idea. If anyone out there has any more creative things I can do with this barrier that is useless as a cargo barrier, please post them here !

Everything is great here! My wife and I have spent most of our off-roading hours on dirt bikes lately! Been a ton of fun. We even did Jaws up in Colorado last fall, that was a blast on the bikes!

Stock front bumper off my FJ62. Has end caps, one is loose. Pretty good shape, slight paint overspray on part of it, can be buffed out. $250 OBO

I have a set front and rear of 6" lift springs for an 80 series. I was planning to use them for my build but decided they are more than what I need. I would like to trade them for a set of OME medium springs 851's and 860's.
I do not know the manufacturer of the springs I have. They are silver and came on an east coast rig that had 120k on it. They could use a new finish. I would consider selling them as well, I am just not sure what to ask for them.
