The FJC does pretty good in 2wd especially using the lsd button when needed. I primarily use my 2wd fj as a daily here in the Chicago land area so not a lot of Off road opportunities near me. Its a great tow rig for my teardrop camper and boat. I bought 2wd because of the cheaper price(what i could afford), less maintenance, possibly better mpg and I found my voodoo blue color I wanted with 100k miles on it.
@@angelon7095 keep that frame coated, inside & outside, with Fluid Film (or another brand) in early October if you plan on driving it in the salt, better yet also get a beater-car for the winter. It may cost you a little more, but you will be happy that you did. They aren't making any more FJ's.
I don’t know about the tires, but those are not FJ rims…Tacoma rims I think. Just saying. Also, FJs are not “known for steering wheel shake”…you’re thinking Wranglers.
You're correct. Those are Tacoma wheels. FJ's are known for going out of alignment easily when you off-road, then that causes the steering wheel to shake.
Good advice. I looked for 2 1/2 years for one. Patience is the key & the more you look at them the more you learn.
Very true! Patience will save a lot of headache in the future.

That is a pretty good find. Especially if it has no rust over there in the Midwest region.
@@Caleb-Nall yup the fj I bought was from down south so very little rust !

@@onenikkione Absolutely! Luckily the frame on my fj is in excellent shape. I'll be treated it later this year before winter. Thanks for the info !
sweet camera setup and nice info

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Totaled my 2014 I bought new last month now I have to find another one :(
shoot man. that really sucks. Terrible luck
Found a 07’ with 218,000 miles for 10k
How long do you think it will last me
Should I buy ?
Depends on how it was taken care of. If it looks in good shape and was taken care of it'll last you till 260K easily.
mine is a 2011 arctic white 4x4 with about 135Km....i'll let it go for.......say.......$150,000...serious offers only please!!!........lol
oooooh and it's been meticulously maintained and undercoated every year.
Seems like a good offer to me.
@@Caleb-Nall yeah nooooo, after much consideration, i can't/won't let it go at any price.
You sound like you hate it lmao
Don't hate it. Just things to watch out for!
