I’m new to this forum, and owning a Land Cruiser in general. I bought my 1991 Land Cruiser HJ80 while I was overseas in Japan and absolutely love it, but it needs some work. I met a guy while over there who rebuilds them for a living and he taught me the basics; maintenance, best oil brands, little tweaks I should make (and BIG tweaks), etc. He also mentioned that my rear axle is too small. I have NEVER owned a vehicle that I needed (or WANTED) to make adjustments to and I need some serious advice. Which rear axle would be best?? A guy from advanced auto parts said many people were switching them for Chevy 2500 series axles, and I’d really love to convert to disc rather than drum. But I also don’t want to spend money on something that just won’t work. Please be nice, I’m not very knowledgeable in vehicle repair/upgrades but that’s why I’m here, I want to learn.
Arigato!
