1985 TOYOTA FJ60 LAND CRUISER, H55F 5 SPEED, FULLY REBUILT 2F ENGINE
Well maintained expedition style 1985 FJ60 Land Cruiser w/ recent low mile professionally installed H55F 5 speed transmission and fully rebuilt engine. This rig has spent its life in the Southwest (purchased in CA and moved to AZ in 2004) and is absolutely rust free and in excellent condition. Everything resealed: No leaks & dry underneath (see pictures). Always garaged and in excellent condition inside and out. The 5 speed really makes the FJ60 a comfortable and very drivable rig with a lower 1st gear than the original 4 speed and with the bonus of the extra 5th gear for the highway.
Outfitted with 4 Brand new 2016 BF Goodrich KO2 All Terrains, this rig also is equipped with a ARB front bumper with Hella lights, custom roof rack, new full carpet, upgraded sound system, Halogen headlights, and a full repaint in the factory gun metal grey. The interior is in excellent condition as can be seen in the photos. A new windshield has also just been installed.
Clean title, no accidents, clean Carfax and Autocheck. Frame on restoration presents this truck mechanically and aesthetically as one of the nicest FJ60’s around with arguably the lowest mile full drivetrain (engine/trans/clutch) of any 60 series on the market today. Body has 225K well maintained, easy miles. The only off road miles are the occasional forest road camping 2-3 times a year. See the following list for the breakdown of mechanical upgrades below.
