i plan on getting one of these once my 87 toyota pickup dies. the problem is toyotas dont die, they last forever. the new top gear episode has this car in it. sadly it rolled down a hill at the end of the episode. what is the mileage on one of these?
I have a 1984 FJ40LX all ORIGINAL.. 82,000kms all original..factory everything...6 Seater...3 wiper blades...like BRAND NEW....in Mustard Yellow...Im in Aus...
Hehe i started out with 1st low (easy on the gas) and then a little more juice on second run, still in 1st low, third run with the throttle pinned. Fourth run in second low with more speed. But i needs crawler gears, and some airlockers to do the job better :)
Im driving with 20psi in my tires in the clip, it could have been better with the tire pressure around 12-15psi. That is what i normally run when im out playing.
Really nice...I think it would have been a bit easier if you had less air pressure in the tire.

Hi Lemonyfishmas, this is a european model with only two wipers.
It originally came with splitrims, it is from 84 with a 3.4l Diesel without turbo. Designated 3B
Sorry to say that i sold it some years ago, pretty hard to see it drive by in the city life.
Spent 1 1/2 year restaurating it from top to bottom. :-)

Assuming this is the 3 wiper edition?
Do you know if the original rims fitted to these out of the factory were split or solid?
Thanks in advance

I just don't like watching you potentially hurt her! Such a precious, don't lose her!
