Intro to my new (to me) 80 series (1 Viewer)

[Kaosu]

Hi there,

Just took ownership of this 1994 Land Cruiser.
Since it came into the family I have:
- Torn down the engine (1 FZ-FE) and replaced the cylinder head completely with a brand new one
- Disassembled swivel hubs, cleaned down and re-greased all components
- Disassembled and cleaned down the front axel, cv joints and replaced all seals
- Replaced wheel bearings
- Hopefully much more to come!!!

Yeah it's been lifted and I forgot to mention the new shocks I put in too but I am pretty pleased to say the least!

Nice rig! Did it have a cracked head when you got it?

It did yeah, the crack was behind cylinder 4's intake valves seemingly because it was burning Coolant but no pressure was making it back into the Coolant loop......
The valves were pretty spent too after that much Coolant flowing over them...
Can't half tell which one had the problem aha

Congratulations on your cruiser find! Looks beautiful, especially with the Australian backdrop. HG done with the new head, that's great!
