96' 175k miles
Normal PM, replaced EGR VM, rebuilt the starter, have new 02 sensor but think I will replace the exhaust 1st, have front crank seal but has not leaked bad enough for me too do it yet.
 
307000 no issues just replaced front main. Bought it with 190000 on it but dont think they had anything major with it. Checked the compression avg 150 psi per cyl. Still runs strong. Replaced Trans and transfer with 68000 miles no major issues with old one just leaking and slipping a little.

what year?
 
have 228k on the 93 and it still has the factory PHH.... and no major failures...and still has the factory HG ... great truck....


179k on the 97 and it was negelected by the PO it has had a HG and many other parts to get it into shape, more from negelect and no PM that actual failures... but starts everytime and is 100% reliable..
 
Just bought a 94 with 182k on it. Not sure what has been done to it but runs great so far. Just took it up to Tahoe and back. It's awesome! I will post pics soon.
 
95 with 138,000. Just did the Birfields and axle seals, upgraded to 100 series brakes because the brake caliper pistons locked up on one side and were eating the rotor, PHH, regular maintenance.
 
'94 with 220,434. Normal PM, never been into engine. Best vehicle I've ever owned. No rattles, no leaks, tight as a drum. Engine compartment is super clean b/c no oil leaks - none. No leaks under the thing eather - its freakin' unbelievable. 2 diffs, TC, oil pan, transmission - nothing leaks! Paint still looks great - interior still looks great (cloth). Slee front bumper/OME lift/33s. Bought it with 136K miles for $9K and did the front axle. My favorite vehicle ever over several Porsches and I currently have 2 mercedes. I drive it all the time and I'm always smiling. I feel superior to everyone else on or off the road. Had my house painted and the guy was telling me he got stuck in a snowstorm in Colorado on some pass b/c his 4 wheel dirve went out on his 3 MONTH OLD TRUCK! It is an F150. I would get in my truck right now and drive across Africa without a care. My truck will still be running when his new Ford is thrown in the bone yard! I'm driving it to a million - I'll take a pic of the odometer when I get there.
 
190 and leaking like a sieve

97 fj80

Wifes car leaking and burning copious amounts of oil
totally neglected by current owner(me)
need to get under there and figure out where it is leaking from
need to do tons of PM

need to sell off a couple of kids to free up time and money.

car has been excellent.

Wife is hard on cars and that is why i got her an 80 relatively bulletproof(jinx)

94 with 199.678 . . . . Almost there.:smokin:
 
:) 95' Cruiser with 92,000 on the odo, but that is a little below actual.
  • Head Gasket
  • New Radiator
  • Power Steering Pump
  • 2 sets of accessory Belts
  • Wheel Bearings
  • 4 complete brake jobs
  • OEM shocks replaced at 40,000
Had regular Toyota maintance since new. Used as a serious off road Hunting/Expedition vehicle from the day it rolled off the show room floor. Front axle needs rebuilt, and Birfs need replaced.
 
'94 with 190,000 (probably more because the speedo/odo has been broken for two months).

PO did head gasket at some point. No engine issues except for the pesky EGR code.

Touch wood.
 
94 165k getting a head gasket as I type. Ran great until the second the gasket let go.
 
the plan is to use this one fore spareparts , but is working fine
