In the end you will have a magic car. Mine 91 model, diesel have locker's 300 thousand ks old man EMU full suspension 2 inch lift. Love the car had from new. Do 12000 klm trips. From Melbourne AUSTRALIA 🤠👍
You may want to use dawn dish soap for lubing the bushings in the future. WD-40/ PB Blaster will contribute to rust creating more work while sanding/ recoating later.
Thiers a Pan Hard Correction kit sold by emkieth This will help the wondering also thier is a steering gear box adjustment. I see you have castor bushing in your radius arms. They could be toast
yeah i may look into getting the adjustable pan hards, i want to do the steering box adjustable as well and the castor bushes are only a few years old so they should be good
so far so good, i think it’s been on for 5 ish years maybe 20k miles. i do have the heavy springs, plenty of travel, comfort, and durability. i’m sure there are better kits but $$$
@@theflipflopfabshop thanks man! Thinking of getting this. My old man FZJ80 have not been upgraded and everything is stock right now. I have so much to replace. Btw did you do anything for the body roll when you installed the old emu 2 inch. Thanks!!
@@motogp2375 all i did was the caster correction bushings, i’m not sure if drop brackets for the sway bars is necessary for a 2.5” lift but it’s worth looking into

Beautiful 80 series. These trucks are amazing and always worth restoring. Love that you love it so much

We are in literally the same boat brother. The list never ends. Give Absolute Wit's End a look for 80 OEM.
i want that turbo kit
I have exact same lift w arb front bumper w winch. So it’s higher in the rear. Need those front pucks and sway bar drop so it won’t rub drive shaft
I like the colour you've done the wheels in!
thanks 🍻
80 series landcruisers are considered legendary in Australia!
good trucks for sure
Well done.
part of your video underneath the car seems to be flipped horizontaly during editing: it seems as if all theads are left handed.

Dark emerald pearl 6m1
thanks man
Your rear sway bar is at a terribly steep angle. You need those flat drop bars to drop your sway bar links.
Very nice cruiser. Lots of things to do. Baseline that thing first before big mods.
thanks she isn’t too shabby and for sure, lots of maintenance to do before i can drive it wherever i want to 👍🏼
