1993 Toyota Land Cruiser Series 80 with Diff Lockers
I bought this Land Cruiser for my personal
project. I had been dreaming of one of
these Cruisers for a long time. Most all
I looked like they have had a very hard life with little service or care. Over
the years I must have looked at 50 Cruisers before I found this one. What struck me about this particular Land
Cruiser is that it was all original paint, Zero rust, all stock and not
modified. Plus the Grey interior color
is much better than the Tan that a lot of Pure White Land Cruisers had. When I test drove this one I knew this would
be the best one for my new driver. I was
really looking for a well-serviced vehicle, so I was happy to see that it had
several receipts in the glove box plus all the original owners manuals. You can always tell a vehicle was cared for
by the tires, this one has Michelin All Terrain LTX M/S, even including a brand
new one as a spare. So after I bought
it is when I got a little carried away.
I did a full service with new plugs, cap, rotor and wires. I also changed the fluids. It had a small hesitation, which I found was
the TPS sensor, so it was also changed.
Air conditioning is very important to me, while it worked most of the
time, I found it had a bad Evaporator valve, so that was changed, as well with
the dryer for safe bets. So now it will
freeze you out on a hot day. The seats
where in good conditioning, but I am a sucker for new car smell, so I had all
the seat leather replaced including the jump seats in the back to new
leather. Like I said I got carried
away… Only other item was a bad antenna
mast, which I found needed a complete power antenna assembly. I bought the factory original from Toyota and
had in installed. Everything on the Land
Cruiser works perfectly. All door locks,
windows, moon roof, heat, ac, 4wd, everything! Driving
this Land Cruiser is a joy. No rattles
or clucks going down the road. Great power
from the bullet proof 24 Valve 4.5 inline six cylinders, code named
1FZ-FE. 1993 was the first year for the
high Pinion Electric Locking Differentials, and the got larger brakes over the
earlier ones. It is a very comfortable SUV that seats 7 with
the removable rear seats. I can only fault the vehicle in two places, on
the pass rear door there is a very small tear in the vinyl, a small dent in the
rear bumper above the hitch, like they backed into a trailer. I am very picky about my vehicles, plus I
have a very short attention span when it comes to keeping cars or trucks. Probably why I am a car dealer. I think I actually like the dream and hunt
more than ownership. So it time for
someone to benefit from my obsessiveness and get a great Land Cruiser Series 80

Toyota bids farewell to FJ Cruiser with Ultimate Edition at SEMA
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Happy trails, to you... As we reported back in August, the FJ Cruiser is headed to the great automotive graveyard in the sky, and Toyota is offering a fitting eulogy in the form of the 2014 Trail Teams Ultimate Edition, which was just unveiled here at the 2013 SEMA Show.
Unlike many special edition models, the Ultimate FJ Cruiser earns its name with a host of parts from Toyota Racing Development, starting with TRD Bilstein race shocks that Toyota says improve damping, articulation and high-speed stability. The front shocks measure 66 millimeters and feature TRD race coil springs, with geometry that improves the approach angle; the 50mm rear units are equipped with remote reservoirs to diminish damping fade.
A new one-quarter-inch thick aluminum TRD front skid plate offers protection for the underbody bits, and the outfit is completed with a BF Goodrich A/T KO tires on 16-inch bead lock wheels, rock rails and a roof rack. Check out the high-res image gallery above and the press release below for all the rest of the details.
Toyota takes i-Road tests to the streets of Tokyo
Fri, Mar 21 2014OK, here's where we think those road tests will start to get a little scary. Those super-narrow all-electric three-wheeled Toyota i-Road vehicles may have looked great sashaying through the towns of the French Riviera. But now? They're being tested in Tokyo. Hoo boy. The Japanese automaker says it'll start testing the i-Roads in the country's largest city on March 24 and will do so through early June. And while there will be some industry experts among the 20 participants, there will also be some regular folks who we hope won't find out the hard way how well those 660-pound, one-yard-wide vehicles perform in crash tests. In the meantime, we'll cross our fingers. The cool thing is that the i-Road now comes in five colors: blue, green, white, yellow and what looks like a magenta-fuchsia-type hue. Earlier this month, Toyota said it started testing the vehicles in Toyota City, Japan, as part of a broader program called "Ha:mo" where people link shared vehicles with public transportation systems (it stands for "Harmonious Mobility Network"). The three-wheeler was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show early last year before getting the star treatment in a French Riviera-locale video. Check out Toyota's press release below and read our impressions of driving the i-Road here.
Toyota recalls power window switches for 6.5 million vehicles [UPDATE]
Wed, Oct 21 2015UPDATE: There was one incident of someone in the US getting a burn to the hand from this issue Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight tells Autoblog that. "We have 11 reports where part of the door trim and/or switch was burnt," she said. The company isn't aware of any crashes from the problem, though. Because of a potential short circuit in the driver's side power window switch, Toyota is recalling 6.5 million vehicles worldwide, Reuters reports. Of those, the automaker says around 2 million are in the US. The affected models here are: 2007 and 2009 Camry and Camry Hybrid 2009-2011 Corolla 2008-2011 Highlander and Highlander Hybrid 2009-2011 Matrix 2006-2011 RAV4 2009-2011 Sequoia 2009-2011 Tundra 2006-2010 Yaris 2009-2011 Scion xB 2009-2010 Scion xD According to Toyota, the switch might not have received adequate lubricant grease during manufacturing, and over time this could lead to a short circuit. In a worst-case scenario, the part might even overheat, melt and cause a fire. As a fix, dealers will inspect the component on these vehicles and apply heat-resistant grease to it, and any broken examples will have an internal circuit board replaced. Toyota already issued one recall for this problem in 2012 when it had to repair 7.5 million vehicles globally from the 2007-2009 model years, including 2.5 million in the US. These latest models had the grease applied in a different way. Related Video: Toyota Recalls Certain Vehicles for Power Window Master Switch October 21, 2015 TORRANCE, Calif., Oct. 20, 2015 – Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. today announced that it is conducting a safety recall of approximately 2,000,000 vehicles related to the driver's side Power Window Master Switch. The involved vehicles include certain: 2007 and 2009 Camry and Camry Hybrid 2009-2011 Corolla 2008-2011 Highlander and Highlander Hybrid 2009-2011 Matrix 2006-2011 RAV4 2009-2011 Sequoia 2009-2011 Tundra 2006-2010 Yaris 2009-2011 Scion xB 2009-2010 Scion xD The Power Window Master Switch in the involved vehicles may have been manufactured with insufficient lubricant grease. If not enough grease is applied, under certain conditions the switch may develop a short circuit that can cause the switch assembly to overheat and melt. A melting switch can produce smoke and potentially lead to a fire. Toyota previously recalled certain 2007-2009 model year vehicles for a similar condition.
