What size tires do you have?

Do the speakers work on the doors?

In the UK, we don’t have LX but the Landcruiser comes with AHC system similar to the LX

My left-hand drive 5-speed triple-lock California-registered HDJ80 will be live soon on Bring a Trailer. 1HD-T

What’s your opinion on a repaint color change? I have a 1994 beige metallic….bad need of a paint job. I’d prefer a different color but a color change is a good bit more expensive than painting the same color

I enjoyed the video, the cargo liner in the back caught my attention where's that from if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks;-)

I bought mine in 2017 for $6500 2006 Doble cab SR5 with 180k I replaced the battery and timing belt and put original tie rods on it. It now has 315k miles on it, and it's still driving perfectly.

I recently bought with 184xxx one that identical to this one haha

I bought one 2 years ago, I live in SoCal, it’s was around the same price for one with 92k miles for a White Limited 4x4 Double Cab. Mine definitely was not as clean as this one, mine had cosmetic damage running boards were scratched, headlights were oxidized, Steering wheel leather was discolored, Front seats needed leather replaced, and tires needed to be replaced, fast forward to 2024 it’s all he repaired and I really enjoy it. Prices are higher because we live in CA and Toyota tax on sought after vehicles. Most the other ones I for sale had 150-300k miles on them so I feel pretty confident I’m the purchase.

Did you just fart at 9:38?

Is it more feasable at a shop in terms of labor cost to just swap out entire UCA or just ball jionts?

Just wanted to say THANKS for making such a helpful tutorial. Your thorough and patient explanation inspired me to tackle this project and I consider myself a newbie with car maintenance / DIY auto-projects. I bought a junkyard wheel for $50 (+ $50 shipping) and had it shipped directly to Craft Customs. Took about 3 weeks to get back to me. Just finished the install -- took me about 90 minutes but that was with a few pauses to grab the right tools. Things I picked up that I didn't have: a plastic pry tool, a torque wrench that went down to 10 lbs., and a 1/2" socket extension. You'll need an extension or deep drive 19mm socket to reach into the wheel. Also, O'Reillys tool rental will loan you a steering wheel puller set for free. I did that and ended up not needing it -- my wheel came off with a little tapping. The cruise control clasp was a little stumper, but came off with a flathead prying up there. Swapping the cruise harness to the new wheel was an easy 2-screw process. No trouble with the horn or airbag either. That wasn't as scary as I thought it might be! One question for you: when putting the new wheel on, do you think you need to get the EXACT teeth placement correctly, or just eyeball it? Now I have my old wheel that I'll either sell on mud, ebay, or maybe send back to Craft Customs to get refinished and then sell. For those wondering, Craft Customs pricing as of May 2024 is $300 for smooth leather all around, $350 for OEM style (leather and perforation), or $700 for leather + wood (Lexus style). Anyways, thanks again, this was a fun project and made me feel great that it went as planned!

Hey! Looking closely at a rebuilt LX450 and this video was super helpful, do you think you could take a look at the sales photos if I linked it to you in the comments?

Do you have the wire diagram for the dashn to show the lockers engaged for the 1999?

Do you expect the LC to be sturdier and with better finishes than the 2025 4Runner?

Regarding the wheels that you mentioned that it looked like it may have been touched up/painted over, I suspect those are actually the original condition. These OEM wheels are likely to be some sort of shadow chrome/hyper silver paint where a black base coat is applied first then the silver is layered on top. Seems like the silver top coats are getting faded and the black base is showing. Just an interesting trivia haha. Really enjoying your detailed going through these ads even though I'm not even from USA. Just a passing kiwi LandCruiser fan! =D

Did my drivers side door a few months back, decided to know out the passenger driver side today as well as the rear hatch thanks to your video. Thanks!

Ive got one of these. The 40th anniversary in antique sage, but its just got the standard single diff lock. Its parked right now because the brakes need work and I cant wait to get it back on the road again.

Neighbor sold me their silver 2003 Tundra Access cab, matching Leer topper, bed liner, 80,000 miles, garaged, no rust for 10,000 back in 2014. Truck now has 90,000 miles. I don't drive it much.

And I’m getting on with 87,456 miles for $9000 in excellent condition and I thought it’s too much

I cleaned mine last weekend, its smells and sounds a bit quieter. Super easy!

My friend… where can I get one? Couldn’t find it in their website

Man I feel like I lucked out. I watched this video before I installed mine and was terrified the install was going to be a pain. Luckily mine bolted right up, no issues at all!

I don't see rust. Looks great to me. You should see mine! Greetings from Chicagoland...

Nice truck man i bought a red one same year but mine is 2wd. Im thinking on how can I make it AWD

We miss you LCP! Give us more!!

Hey bud, love your break downs. I've watched a few very closely before taking the leap on a two tone '97 triple locked 80 series from BaT just the other day. Working on get her shipped over my way currently and would love to have your take on it. At 220k miles she's not the prettiest but with a little elbow grease and maintenance I think she'll fit in just fine. If you want any more details just let me know. Your videos are super informative, much appreciated!

Does ur fridge rattle just installed one into a 300 series land cruiser

Not sure how to direct message you but I’ve been looking a a 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser with low miles and was wondering if you’ve looked into it since it’s been available for quite sometime. I’ve got the car fax report to provide to you if you’d like

Thanks for your video. Precious informations and I did repair mine that had the same leaking. Have a good one

I think this is a standard LC converted aftermarket to a heritage edition look alike, no roof rack and has 3rd row seats, heritage did not come with 3rd row seats. Spare tire is the standard LC wheel. Disappointing you didn’t pick up the after market conversion to heritage.

@thelandcruiserproject I see youre taking a break from making videos but I would love your helping reviewing a potential purchase -- and my very first. Plesae let me know there's anything I can do to get your support. Thanks.

I paid $8,000 for mine in 2015 it now has 280,000 miles on it and since I’ve had it I have not had a single issue what so ever. I’ve put some money into it over the years, not because it broke down I just peice by piece have replaced parts to ensure it’s going to last forever. Currently I’m replacing the whole timing belt setup even though it was still working perfectly fine which it crazy because it’s the first time the timing belt system has been replaced because in trucks this old they usually only past around 100,000 miles and this truck has 260,000 miles. But other then that writhing the last 8 years I’ve replaced that, full brakes and routers, ignition coils, spark plug wires, the exhaust system( with stock exhaust ) I’ve actually replaced everything with stock OEM parts. So like I said it’s sitting at 260,000 miles and it runs like a brand new truck rolling off the lot, I haven’t had any work what so ever done to the transmission and it still feels like a brand new truck. I’m so happy I bought this truck when I did because they don’t make trucks like this anymore whatsoever not even close for it to be such a small pick up truck which used to be considered full sized and having a eight cylinder engine is awesome like it’s nothing special but it’s definitely got some get up and go and power but that’s why I think 10 or 20 years down the roadto have this truck fully stock in perfect condition will be a cool little truck to have for sure you already don’t see many of this make and model on the road anymore and when you do, they’re usually beat up

Bought a 2015 LX570 with 70k miles for $30k… super happy with the value buy.

That’s surface tension rust

How do I contact you about a rare imported 80 Series (Turbo diesel) I found? I want to put a deposit down on it ASAP in case it’s a really good find… You seem like the person to get the best opinion from!

Very helpful 😊

Thanks Bro, thanks to this I was available to change mine in no time 🙌🏼💪🏼

Opinion needed. I have a 1995 LC80, owned by the same people for 29 years. White paint, with brown cloth interior. 275K miles - I bought it from my architech who kept it well maintained and in his garage when not in use. He sold it to me for $8500...but I honestly think its worth more. 100% stock original. no lift, 33" BFGs (I put on), no smoker, no kids, no pets Northern AZ (Sedona) car... No rust at all.

I've had a couple of these now and that is indeed superficial rust. I don't care if it has texture, I care if it has holes I can't repair. These are never going to be perfect at this age. 5 out of 5 would buy, but not at this price point.

Got the same one V6 Petrol

I got a 2002 unicorn rare 😎

1:15 My 2003 has white. Does it mean its fake ? I see many others on the Internet, too

17 city/19 highway??? Every other stock 1999 100 Series LC in the US with the 4.7L V8 including mine gets 15/16 highway and single digits around town.

That is the wrong climate control for a 40th it should have a digital temp like the lexus not a slide.
