New build: named Clifford
Last week I bought a 1995 fzj80 land cruiser fully loaded for around $4000. This is my first 4x4( coming from 2 late 80s c10s). My buddy has a 4runner he is currently SAS finaly convinced me to get a 4x4 and mainly a toyota after a overland trip to colorado and moab.
We are both planing to do the transcontinental trail in the next year or two. Planning on doing the kentucky adventure tour this spring.
Plan:
Custom bumpers and sliders, might do custom roof rack
Winch
33s (bfg at), maybe 35s if i regear
3 inch lift
New exhaust (so it doesnt hang under the frame)
on board air and water
Might do a removable aux fuel tank
Already done:
All new brakes(calipers, shoes, rotors, etc.)
20 inch light bar
2 led pods
2 led reverse pods
Removed side steps
Built storage boxes
Power inverter
Todo list:
Rebuild rear elocker
Change diff fluid and extended breaters
Needs: before transcontinental trail
Rebuild motor(270,000 miles)
Rebuild axles and tcase.
Anyother suggestions or tips would be great. Thanks
