They are an addiction. My immediate family has 10 LandCruisers. 5 FJ40's, 2 FJ62's, 1 FZJ80 (40th Anniversary triple locked), 1 UZJ100, and 1 UZJ200. We're crazy but I love it. :P
I suggest a car door edge guard off Amazon for the bottom of the angled front plate that was touching the roof, I did this for my Prinsu to prevent scratching. Correct, it doesn't need all the bars either. Your builds are wicked.
actually, prinsu did send a rubber cover that slips over the edge and likely reduces any wimd noise. just like you mention. Guess they caught on and provide it now.
Love the content! I’m about to pull the trigger on a 70 series ‘93 BJ77 with 370k kms (I’m stationed in Germany) in Europe for 15k. What do you think? Worth it? Runs perfect and zero rust.
@@CruisingTheLand Growing up (I'm 36 now) my parents had FJ60 and HDJ80. I miss the HDJ80. It was model year 1992 so it came with the 1HD-T. Great engine!
@@electrikoptik nice.. back then pretty much all 80s were stock, maybe the rare 2" lift and bull bar.. Imagine a built 80 from today rolling up in the 90s beside a stock! our mouths would drop! its amazing how you can transform these rigs into works of rolling art.
Thanks a lot for such good and interesting videos! Like your sense of style, all of your rigs looks extremely cool! What is the milage on that Mamba? When I see condition of its body, rubber seals, lights and comparing with mine HDJ81 I wanna cry :))))
Hey I’ve been looking for the diesel 80 for about 3 years now! I should have pulled the trigger on a few and missed out! So I got when I’m interested, low miles, all stock and $20k. Only thing is it’s a 93 so it’s not the 1hdft that I want. Can you do a video on the differences between 1hdt and 1hdft I’ve done my own research and the FT is the one I want. Is the 1hdt that much more inferior to the 1hdft. Let me know what you think. Thanks for all the videos!!!
Hi Gabriel, well, 3 years ago you couldnt get a 1HD-FT, you could only get rhe 12v 1HD-T.. the 25 year rule. Both great engines. spoke to someone today that was explaning the inline 6 is best engine configuration, which is why Cummins 12V inline 6 was their best, most reliabe too.
You get 5% off with my link.. Also found in the description in my linktree for many products. The rugged bound 5% off is there too. Rugged Bound is built in South Africa and is fully welded and the best Roof Rack available. cbioffroadfab.com/shop/?v=7516fd43adaa
Hey man, just wanted to reach out about your HDJ. I am contemplating importing, or buying one already in the states. Do you have a direct email I can reach out to you? I didn't see one in your about page. Thanks.

Tell the Mrs LC addiction is for life, beyond help
The mamba looks soooo much like a mamba...awesome.
As for the sticker leave it on the window, love the simple TURBO on the body..adds authentication
Turbo for sure. Previous owner of mine in Japan resprayed the truck and didn't put the turbo stickers back and it bums me out. Love the now-retro font
you can buy the stickers on ebay and put them back on.
@@CruisingTheLand for sure, probably going to repaint it first though, it's a really poor respray and has a few little rust spots
Such a beautiful rig

sounds like a good deal. just over 200k miles.. clean no rust is important.. try getting 1-2k off for some baselining repairs.
@@CruisingTheLand Thanks for the quick response! Yes, I actually talked him down from his original price of 16,900 👍
Ma man, when are you gonna start her up so we can hear the sweet 1HD symphony?
Good Point!
Final Reveal video coming up, I will 100% crank her over and video a short drive...
that engine is sooo smooth.

Mamba has 195k Kilometers, so thats 123k miles... A small % of the million miles that engine will go!
What is the back swinging tire holder called that you have
Thats a Slee rear bumper
Looks great. Love how low profile that rack is.

absolutely!
Info on the wheel and tire specs? Impeccable fitment!

Awesome Cruiser. You should replace the rear mud flaps to match the front.
not sure if the mud flaps can go on with the bar... custom cutting required.
what's the cooler code of this 80 series?
Its an aftearket Black. The 81 was the dark blue, but refinished in black.
Where is part 4????
Should be in the description. It's the Final reveal
Here is a 2nd reveal after I added a light bar too:

@@CruisingTheLand Thanks, just picked up a 1991, with 15's on it....
@@rescue1512 a 1991 1HDT?
get yourself some in the 1993-1997 16" wheels.. much nicer than the 15s.
@@CruisingTheLand I'll keep an eye out for some 16', thanks
which car cover is that on your land cruiser in the driveway?
its a car covrr for a Tahoe/Escalade, fits better because of the roof rack.
Why does it look like the land cruiser parked on the street is riding super low on the rear? Or my eyes effin with me?
which Landcruiser? color?
@@CruisingTheLand the one where you say hi to your honey.
@@zumezoom9593 it is bc all the others are lifted, makes that one seem low.

Looking at importing one of these. What mileage did you get from AZ to Cali when it was (mostly) stock?
went 1 tank. approx 480 miles
