New to the 80 Club and to the Mud forum and reside in Brandon(042 nor 047). Took a while to realize this section was here. Recently purchased a locked 97 LX450 185k'ish miles. After going hunting in a buddies this Spring, I fell in love and had to have one. Found one in Atl and drove all night to get it and get back. Pretty clean and never been offroad. Since I got it back I have replaced pretty much all the cooling system(rad, fan clutch, hoses, belts, work idler pulleys, thermostadt, trans cooler lines, and the like) as well as slapped on an OME 2.5 heavy spring lift. Have yet to press in the caster bearings in the control arms(cold beer, pizza, and whatever else if anyone wants to volunteer help!!) I've got it in my head its harder than it is, but its intemidating me.
Anyway, looking foraward to getting it closer to what I want and attending some of the monthly meetings at the Cherokee as well as actually using it as a hunting and trial vehicle. I will say at the REK concert the other night, the 80's were well represented. I counted no less than 6 in the parking lot.
