I know the LJ78, the original Prado / Light Duty Land Cruiser has a lighter duty suspension, axles and drivetrain. But, those could easily be upgraded to 80 series components.
My main question is, was the chassis / frame also made lighter duty or from lighter / thinner steel?
I have an opportunity to buy one, and want to upgrade it to heavier duty drivetrainand axles from an 80 series, but if the chassis rails are not as strong as the heavy duty 70 series, it would not be worth it.
