This 1986 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 is a clean and cool Land Cruiser
that started its life in California and the Pacific NW before
spending some time in the South and Midwest where it was used as a
fair weather vehicle. This vehicle has had a ton of work and
improvements done to it in the last few years and we will try to
detail most of them in this description. The last owner lived in
Michigan and spent $15,000 + doing mechanical upgrades, preventive
maintenance, and repairs at Technique Vehicle Outfitters which
specializes in Toyotas and Overlanding (Have Receipts). His goal
was to build a turn key and reliable truck that he could drive in
the summers when he wanted with no worries.
The body on this FJ60 is clean and straight. It was repainted in
its original color of Dark Blue Metallic which appears Gray
depending on the lighting. The paint looks great and all of the
chrome and trim appear to be original and is still very nice. The
underside is super clean and we found no rust issues with this
vehicle.
The interior is also in excellent condition. It has been mostly
redone with the seats being professionally reupholstered in OEM
style upholstery. They look awesome. The door panels were also
redone to match. It received new carpet with Kilmat sound
insulation, new headliner, and there was a new dash cover installed
as well. The headlights, taillights, brakelights, and turn signals
are all working. The gauges all work. It has tilt wheel and a
working aftermarket stereo. The windshield wipers and horn work.
The heat and AC also work. The AC was overhauled a few years ago
with new compressor, evaporator, and condensor.
Mechanically this vehicle is Top Notch and recently completely
checked out (2025). It runs and drives excellent. The engine is the
2F 4.2L Inline 6 known for its reliability and longevity. It
appears to be all stock and it runs strong with no issues or rede
flags that we found. In 2025 it received a new rear main seal, new
valve cover gaskets, valve adjustment, new waterpump, new
thermostat, new belts and hoses, coolant flush, full tuneup, carb
rebuild, new vacuum lines. It has the H42 4 Speed Manual
Transmission that shifts great with a strong clutch. It received
fluid flush in 2025. It is mated to the Toyota Split transfer case
and the 4WD works like it should. It has the Toyota 9.5" rear axle
with 3.70 that was rebuilt with new Yukon gears, bearings, and
seals. The front axle is the 9.5" with 3.70 gears and it had the
knuckles rebuilt and new bearings. Other recent work includes a new
Red Head steering Box and dampner, 2 Inch Old Man Emu lift with
upgraded shocks, new sway bar bushings, and new brake hoses. This
is all sitting on a nice set of factory steel wheels with new 32
Inch BFG All Terrain tires.
