-Front axle serviced: new Marlin Crawler inner axle seals, new wheel seal, new hub gaskets. 
-New Toyota OEM spider joints
-New t-case front and rear output shaft seals
-New OEM rear driveline U-joint

Here's what's needed soon:
-Nothing for a daily driver. I've been driving it almost daily with no problems. 
-Spare tire size is 28". I'd pick up a used full size in case it's needed. 
-Jack and spare tools kit needs some missing parts replaced to be ready for a flat tire. 
-Horn doesn't work. Needs new horn pin/brush in steering wheel, and this is an easy install. The actual horns and wiring are fine (I tested them). 
-Windshield washer system does not work in front (it works in rear). I haven't had time to diagnose, but I believe just needs wiring checked. Headlight washers need hoses. 

Other things you should know:
-There is minor surface rust underneath paint on some parts of hood and small section on tailgate. 
-Coolant temp gauge hasn't moved much, but thermostat works fine. I've seen another FJ60 with same, I think it's a gauge or sending unit issue.
-Carpet and interior is well used but original. 
-Engine bay hood insulation is torn in the middle, but still in good condition. Can probably be secured to the hood in torn areas. Plenty of folks run without a hood liner without trouble. 
-There are some tears in the dashboard and seats (underneath the seat covers)
-I can provide specific photos on request. Let me know what you want to see more of!

Any additional questions? Let me know! 

I am driving, so mileage may vary. Will list locally, so seller reserves right to cancel auction.

Toyota maintains world's largest automaker crown, GM and VW close behind

Wed, 24 Apr 2013

Toyota still holds the title of World's Largest Automaker. The Japanese automaker ceded the claim to General Motors in 2011 following a series of natural and man-made disasters that stifled production in Asia. Production is back up to full speed and, coupled with the introduction of a new Camry midsize sedan, Toyota retook the title in 2012 and has so far been able to keep it by selling 2.43 million vehicles in the first quarter of 2013.
The race is still tight - General Motors reports sales of 2.36 million vehicles, earning it the second spot globally with Volkswagen's 2.27 million sales nabbing the German automaker third place. It's not all smooth sailing for Toyota, either, as the brand's first-quarter figures were down 2.2 percent when compared to last year. GM posted a 3.6-percent gain and VW managed a 5.1-percent gain over the same period.
Sales in China may be a deciding factor as to which automaker performs best in 2013. Toyota's figures were down 13 percent in China. Meanwhile, GM and VW are continuing their upward trajectories in the crucial Chinese market.

How Toyota's neighbor delayed 23,000 of its deliveries

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

Don't you just hate when your neighbors' mess becomes your problem? Toyota certainly has good reason to be upset, after an dirty mishap at a steel mill delayed thousands of vehicle exports from its nearby port in Nagoya, Japan, (pictured above) by as much as a month.
The messy situation occurred on June 22 when the mill near the port lost power and had to burn off an excess buildup of coke oven gas - which isn't exactly a situation friendly to living beings or the environment. According to Automotive News, it caused a massive amount of smoke to emit from the plant that fell as soot and tar on about 23,000 vehicles that were waiting to be shipped out. Getting the models properly cleaned off has been quite a task. A team of 5,000 workers were at the port until this week getting them gleaming again.
Potential Toyota buyers in North America have no need to fret about getting a sullied car, though. A Toyota spokesperson told Automotive News that none of the vehicles were bound for this continent. The automaker is reportedly considering asking the mill's owners for reimbursement for the cost of the weeks of cleanup. Paying for the mistake is, after all, the neighborly thing to do.

Toyota Tacoma helps stand up to your girlfriend, mimes, magicians and the Grim Reaper

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

It takes a lot to get a product noticed in today's fast-paced world, but one avenue that's always seemed to grab the eyeballs of consumers has been humor. Toyota knows this rule well, and has put together a quartet of spots called "Tacoma Wins," in which the midsize pickup's features and specifications best a number of seemingly worthy competitors.
Whether it be sobbing girlfriends, a circus magician, a grim reaper or the scariest thing of all, a mime, the Tacoma looks well equipped to deal with it. Take a look below for all four of Toyota's newest spots.
