'95 with 182,000 miles. Very little maintenance by PO's over its lifetime. Just replaced the original wires, distributor cap and rotor. Would have replaced the original shocks too if I could have gotten the #$%$ bolts off.

Go away....

94 with 191K, new to me!

 

[Pete483]

My cruiser is below average I guess

97' with 164k. Just regular PM, if you consider having it rebuilt at 124k and then having the headgasket re-replaced at 140k. Not all Landcruisers can be above average.
