Up for sale is my 1988 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ62 with ~203K miles (relisted due to non-paying bidder). This truck has been well built and is located right outside Birmingham, AL. I've got a 100 series (Land Cruiser) now and my poor 62 is just languishing in the driveway; it has gotten pretty lonely. Mods: - ARB front bumper w/ Warn 8274 winch (150' of cable) and Hella 500 fog lights - Slee sliders - Custom rear bumper w/ dual swing outs and full roof rack with ladder built by Mark Whately (cut rear quarter panels, tucked right up against frame) - 37" MTRs on 15x10 aluminum American Racing rims - Lock Right locker in the rear axle - Double Cardan rear driveshaft w/ all new u-joints - 6" of lift via a Spring Over Axle conversion; the spring over was performed using 2.5" Old Man Emu lift springs w/ anti-inversion shackles. A cut-n-turn and full rebuild of the front and rear axles was performed as well. The steering set-up is a high-steer system from 4x4 Labs and places the tie rod behind the axle housing out of the way of rocks. The sway bars were retained and the links extended; the rear sway bar has quick disconnect pins for off-roading. - Upgraded stereo system: Alpine head unit, up front 6" Polk audio component speaks, in the rear 6" Boston Acoustics and 12" Infinity Kappa Perfect sub, there are two amps one to power the front and rear 6" speakers and one for the rear sub. - Cobra CB in dash with 4' fire stick on the ARB - New exhaust from the downpipes back - Recently replaced tranny and t/case with a lower mile(125K) unit - Task LED - Passenger A-pillar grab handle - Transmission temp gauge - Large transmission cooler Current maintenance: Plugs, dist cap, dist rotor, plug wires, fuel filter, belts, air filter, PCV, 02 sensors, hoses, thermostat, rear brakes rebuilt, new master cylinder, new radiator, new passenger front caliper, new front door seals, new A/C o-rings, new A/C dryer, new A/C evap valve, alignment, new tailgate shocks, leak in oil pan repaired (well mostly ), new Autocraft silver battery; all done in last 3000 miles. PO recently rebuilt birfs and replaced water pump. What’s left: Need to replace the A/C compressor (I replaced it with a used one, but it was no good too!). It could use some new shocks, the ride is a bit wobbly as it goes. The transmission shifts really well; no slipping, just a firm shift every now and then. It does clunk a bit when you shift into reverse, again not that bad, but it is a fairly normal thing for a 62 as the output shaft on the trans wears over time. Still drips a few drops of oil every now and then (nothing significant). The body is in good shape. There is a dent on the passenger side rear corner and a spot that was repaired with bondo, but the paint is in good shape (it was repainted). There are 3 rust spots on the body. One is on the driver's side rear window front bottom corner (bubbling under the paint), another is around bubbling under the 4x4 emblem on the tailgate, and the last in on the bottom of the passenger side rear window. Brakes are pretty good, but you have to plan in advance (the rear drums have been rebuilt and there is a new master cylinder). The frame is in great shape, just your basic surface rust (I sprayed the whole frame with fluid film last year to keep it in good shape). There is some surface rust on the rack and ladder, they just need to be sanded and repainted to be perfect. The only other thing wrong I can think of is that the spare is no good (I had it repaired for a cut, and now it has a bulge in the sidewall). So those are all the things that could be fixed. I just wanted to disclose everything up front. It is a great truck. The Cruiser is obviously a beast offroad, I think it speaks for itself in that regard and it gets plenty of looks. There are also a set of gray seat covers (SOR maybe?) that come with it. There are a pile of receipts that come with it from the PO (actually the PO before the PO I think). It is a truck with a lot of history, wish I could recount it all. I purchased the truck about 3 years ago for a lot more than I'll sell it now from another cruiserhead in South Carolina. I've just barely driven it and have thrown a ton of maintenance and time into it to make it an even better truck. The interior is in very good condition. The trucks drives pretty well over the road for a SOA rig. Don't hesitate to ask anything. For $250 more, I will throw in a set of Aussie sliding windows and all of the seals you need to rebuild them and install them. I've got a ton of photos of the truck, so if there are any you don't see, let me know and I'll email them to you. Keep in mind the truck is sold As-Is, where is, though I do expect I have described it well. If you would like to come see the vehicle or have it inspected, please let me know as soon as possible so we can arrange it. I am in the process of moving, so pickup needs to be on July 3rd early AM or on my moving date which will be July 8th or during the week of July 11th more than likely. I could also do it at a later time if necessary. Depending on arrangements/ shipping requirements, I could arrange for a friend to load or give it over possibly once payment is complete.
