The time has come to move on to other things, so my Land Cruiser is for sale.

Specs:
- '93 Forest Green - 256k on clock, has "lower miles" engine, I believe
- 4.88 gears w/ factory elockers
- Longfield birfs with stock inners
- ARP hub studs front and rear (rear have 0 miles on them - installed last night)
- new spindle axle seals installed in rear (8/23)
- AISIN lockouts on front w/ gold 60-series dial faces (big deal, right...)
- heavy-duty drag-link
- ARP knuckle studs
- 1 1/2" Spidertrax spacers
- roughly 4" lift rear, 4" lift front with 2" budget-block spacers
- ARB front bumper in rough shape
- tubular rock sliders welded to scab plates on frame
- exhaust routed inside framerails, catalytic converters eliminated
- replaced lower rear links with unmolested factory units (8/23)
- have a set of Trail-Gear transfer case crawler gears that will go with it, extra rear driveshaft, front axle gaskets, Marlin Eco seals, other seals
- comes with factory doors with working electric Windows and lift hatch
- will come with 35" Treadwright Guard Dogs on 17" Sequoia alloys

The Bad:
- body has dents and dings, in particular rear lower quarter panels
- rear pinion seal weeps
- could use new rotors and pads on most corners - still work fine, though - I would remove ABS system at that time, too
- electric seats no longer adjust - fixed position
- couple of broken wheel studs - will try to replace before it sells
- passenger Birf occasional clicks - had driver rebuilt by RCV when I bought the Cruiser two and a half years ago for ~$100 shipped, and it's smooth
- rear windows have been removed
- center diff lock permanently locked in, but to has lockouts - drive flanges included if you want them.
- sunroof is non-functional
- has radio, but blew a fuse or something when passenger visor was taken out forcefully

This has been an absolute blast to wheel and taught me a lot about the dynamics of wheeling. I ran 36" Swampers, 35" short-course Maxxis stickies, 37" Trep non-sticky, and 37" Trep stickies on it. The Cruiser has been a proving ground for my many theories of off-roading design and equipment. Only left me stranded once due to a broken sector shaft. Box was replaced on the trail, and away we went.

The Cruiser is a perfect platform for a firewall buggy. I had high hopes of finding the time to chop it up, but that hasn't happened and won't any time soon. Been building a house with my wife, and that has consumed my life the past eternity (it seems), and the land we have built on will continue to require a lot of my time. All that to say it time for it to find a new home. Could be road-worthy, and I've driven it for a few miles on asphalt at a time, but I think it really is best suited as a trail rig.

In Hot Springs, AR

Some pics show back glass present and tires that are different than current. Will get updated pics.
 
When it had short course stickies. That's a 35" tire on top of a 39" red label... And some of an XJ hood :****:

Dang Jordan...getting out :dunno:
Nah, just mixing it up, Ray!

If anyone is interested in cheaper options, I have a few ideas. Could go back to stock axles with 4.10 diffs - rear welded, front lock-right. Could also put a set of Chevy steelies with bored centers to clear Toyota hubs and 25% tread 315/70R17 Desert Grapplers.

Installed new AISIN "blue hub" fan clutch, new AISIN water pump, new windshield wipers (crucial... Ha ha!). Now on a set of 37" 50%+ tread KM2s on Tundra alloys.

$3750 without crawler gears

Doors back on. Has late-model OEM 4Runner 17" alloys with the 37" KM2s.

Let's make a deal. This needs a new home. Comes with two extra power steering pumps and rebuild kits, two spare rear factory drivesgafrs in good shape. One is functional but could use new joints.

Haven't tried real hard to sell this thing, but it does need a new home.

$3500 without crawler gears
