I selected my name out of being the new owner of a 91 FJ80.
I bought it with 162K. Been lurking for a couple of weeks and thought since it looks like the LC is a keeper.
Now i noticed the stock plastic/alum radiator is cracking near the plastic top leaking or oozing out.
I found a new radiator all metal 3-rows for 220. Oh yea, lifetime guarantee. I also looked in the oil & antifreeze for cross contamination overheating, no issues visable including the overflow tank color. I did pull the oil filler cap with the engine idling and the rpm's did drop a little. Surprising... That's good no extra blowby, i guess. Anything else I should look for..? I look forward to being here as i admire anyone who wheels as well, including myself.
