Picked up a FZJ80 yesterday..drove 14 hours round trip to get it. I was looking for a nice daily driver that I can take out and wheel while I still build my FJ40. Factory lockers front and rear work just fine. It has seen a little bit of saltwater but I will get that cleaned off and repaint those areas. I will be getting back to the FJ40 soon.


The good, well its a Toyota.
Slee Off Road 6 inch lift with 4inch springs
4x4 Labs sliders
4x4 Labs Rear bumper with dual swing outs
36x13.50x16 Iroks
LX450 short block with less than 9k on it.


It came with a ton of extra stuff including a FSM and Electrical manual.


The bad, not much to gripe about
Tach does not register until after 2500 rpms..otherwise sits on 0
Brakes are soft on first push and then right before the pedal bottoms out it gives for a milisecond and then the vehicle stops.
Only other stuff is small cosmetic things which I am not concerned about.


I do want to start looking for a new drivers door panel to replace the damaged on from the door stop.
