As more HDJ81s have become available for USA import in the last several years (suppose we've reached the final year for an 80 series import with 1997), I imagine the sample size for JDM HDJ81 ownership has grown a decent amount. I am considering joining the ranks with a pretty nice example running a 1HD-T connected to a fully hydraulic A442F, and would love to hear some anecdotes on the experiences folks have had with these rigs.
Have you had serious issues with parts aquisition and maintenance?
Has RHD been a pain in the butt?
Would you do make the purchase again?
I drove an FZJ80 for many years, and the dream of a diesel 80 has been present for a long time. I'm also striving to be realistic and not bite off more than I can chew. Thanks in advance for any anecdotes!
