Great video. Just got my self my second one. A 97 lx450 3xlocked. Doing all maintenance and cleaning now. Dirty previous owners. Will keep it for years
I have an 80 series that has been in My Family since 1994 when my Dad bought it off the Show room floor at Bell Rd. Toyota in late 1994. It had All terrain tires and a Cattle Guard on it. I still Own it.
Northern Territory number plates at 4:34 That's where Crocodile Dundee was filmed. Any Landcruiser with rear barn doors has a model designation ending in 2. ie BJ42. HJ62. HZJ82.
The 80 series especially the 40th anniversay edition is a great heavy duty tow vehicle especially once you replace the original rubber bush suspension with nolethane. I also fitted new Pedders springs and shocks. The truck was slightly above standard suspension height when finished. The original sags over time and is too soft for heavy towing. I bought my truck brand new. The 4.5 litre twin cam is a great reliable engine especially if looked after properly. Only negative is fuel consumption which is considerable under load. But I did use it to tow a 31 foot drop keel ocean going yacht!
@@CrazyforCruisermy '96 got up to 15.5 mpg! If you want the mileage to looks great, keep it as close to stock as possible, with regularly maintenance and lightly added weight. It's amazing forever vehicle to drive.
What's the chance of the "common problems" actually occuring? I kinda want to get an FJ80, but with them being slow as heck and possibly having some serious frame and suspension problems, that kinda scares me away from wanting it. Are they actually common problems? Or are they more rare?
Thats my 1993 LC at 3:57. I got Maco to paint white as the clear coat on the original dark green was a mess. It has 338k on it and runs great. Gas hog but a reliable weekend truck.
Beware of oil leaks.Common issue from crankshaft seal,usually see the crank has grooves worn.Only way to fix properly is a long block....seen it LOTS of times with these 80 series over 200,000 miles
The only thing the 80 series lacks is the availability of an aftermarket dual transfer case. If I am wrong, somebody please correct me and point to where one is at. I want one bad.
Thinking of buying a 93 Land Cruiser with 330k...they are asking $4400. ANy thoughts? The dark blue paint is worn and the leather seats up front are torn up.
@@Fulllarrylarry No I didn't. Got an '04 chevy silverado instead. Needed to pull a 24ft trailer and the chevy was just more practical. One day, practical won't be as big a factor because that JDM was sweet!
My experience: -PHH (pesky heater hose) -EGR getting clogged up with carbon. -Engine wire harness melting right next to the egr - Heater control valves - Front main seal for the engine. -Slow power windows operation. -Head gasket Other than those issues I love my '96 landcruiser, already clocked at 416,000 miles.

If I would kiss a semi on the road I would want to be driving our 2011 Land Cruiser.
YES IT IS. 322k miles on mine and still running!

Never get rid of it. We own a 2011 model and will never sell it.
I like seeing videos like this because it makes my 80 worth more.
Over 300k miles on my 96, other then routine maintenance (and repacking the birfs) she’s been dead reliable AND she spends a lot of time off road!

Is the turbo diesel HD-FT as good for towing?
@@evankaufman4071yes but 1fz the best
Our 1997 3 locker FZJ80 runs flawless and get average of 19.5 mpg! 25 years old now and barely broken in @ 196k miles!
Leather, lockers, lift!
uhhh.....how?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😆 You must mean 19.5 gallons per mile? I owned one for 8 years, on a good day it was giving me 7 miles per gallon.

Smart Couple.
With front and rear locker 😍
I have had a 40 series, 60 series, and an FJ Cruiser. I now have a 76 Series. 76 Series is the best ever.
I can't decide which one to buy the fj80 or 76 series.. help me out bro..
I drove this in. Kashmir excellent motor back in 1999 ..
You sir are a hero among men
thank you man a great videp
Hello good sir can you do a video on the Toyota Land Cruiser 100 series thanks ,keep up the great work
Great video!
Wow 939,xxx miles! That's impressive
I know it wasn't available on USA but please make a video Abou the 70 series

Can't go wrong with a Land Crusier
How does Toyota do it? LandCruisers are so damn reliable!
They take pride in their work.
Thats my 1993 LC at 3:57. I got Maco to paint white as the clear coat on the original dark green was a mess. It has 338k on it and runs great. Gas hog but a reliable weekend truck.
Yes we don't pass to many gas stations.
The best Toyota made love my 80 series it’s been kept laughing me new since I bought it
You drive a quality Land Cruiser. We drive a 2011 model and will never get rid of it.
Beware of oil leaks.Common issue from crankshaft seal,usually see the crank has grooves worn.Only way to fix properly is a long block....seen it LOTS of times with these 80 series over 200,000 miles
just brought mine in and found I got an oil leak hoping it isn't worst case scenario
you can overdrive or underdrive the seal to prevent leaks on a budget. However the seals do wear grooves in the crank so you are correct
We own a 2011 model and it's my understanding that can get a long block 25 years after we purchased our Land Cruiser.
Looks like a great design if in ok shape
I SWAPPED THE FRONT SEATS FOR PRADO SEATS BEST THING I EVER DID.
80 series 4.2 diesel OR 4.5 petrol? Help me out please guys?
Turbo Diesel
Diesel
4.5 very strong 4.2 good but 4.5 1fz the best ⛽️
The only thing the 80 series lacks is the availability of an aftermarket dual transfer case. If I am wrong, somebody please correct me and point to where one is at. I want one bad.
None for the 80. Only way is to swap the engine and trans then you can fit an Atlas.
Thanks for video! Appreciate the hard work 👍
Can you do the buyer guide on the 2nd Generation Chevy Tahoe
Sure, I'll try to do that next! Thanks for watching!
Leave that chevy on the parking lot and go purchase a Land Cruiser.
Has anyone ever tried putting the tailgate and hatch system on a first gen Sequoia?
Thinking of buying a 93 Land Cruiser with 330k...they are asking $4400. ANy thoughts? The dark blue paint is worn and the leather seats up front are torn up.
If it’s been well maintained, with records and passes an inspection it may be a good deal! Have you driven it?

Looking at getting 95 jdm turbo diesel model with 115k miles in excellent condition for 23k? Is that a fair deal?
I ALSO am looking at a 95 JDM Turbo Diesel with 115k miles. . . asking 23k. I’m gonna offer 24k now!
Lol jk, that’s a smoking deal my dude.
Did you get it?
@@Fulllarrylarry No I didn't. Got an '04 chevy silverado instead. Needed to pull a 24ft trailer and the chevy was just more practical. One day, practical won't be as big a factor because that JDM was sweet!
330 K on my 92.
👍👍👍
Where is the common problems?
My experience:
-PHH (pesky heater hose)
-EGR getting clogged up with carbon.
-Engine wire harness melting right next to the egr
- Heater control valves
- Front main seal for the engine.
-Slow power windows operation.
-Head gasket
Other than those issues I love my '96 landcruiser, already clocked at 416,000 miles.
