Hi all!
I am about to go and look at a HJ61 fully restored in Spain.
Never owned a LC but finally I can afford it.
(Picture show another HJ61 but with the same setup)
Made a checklist to follow when I look at the truck but I would really appreciate anything that could be important points to check. Especially the HJ61.
BASIC
[ ] Vin match
[ ] Service history + Mileage
[ ] Owner history
FUNCTIONS
[ ] Coldstart
[ ] Instrumentation
[ ] Lightning Ext/Int
[ ] A/C
[ ] Heater
[ ] 4x4 Locks?
[ ] Horn
[ ] Windows
[ ] Door locks
DRIVING
[ ] Sounds
[ ] Brake balance
[ ] Parkingbrake
[ ] Check all the gears during engine braking (not pop out)
CHASSIS/AXLE
[ ] Rust
[ ] Dampers
[ ] Leakage
[ ] Bearings
[ ] Differential oil
[ ] Full float axles installed
[ ] LSD Diff function
[ ] Check winch function
ENGINE
[ ] Radiator
[ ] Filters Diesel + Oil
[ ] Vacuum leak?
[ ] Waterpump
[ ] Stable RPM
(Engine should start up with a touch to the key. If it does not, there might be air leak somewhere in fuel line)
