The so-so: - Rear electric window motors are slow/sluggish. They open and close, but the passenger side needs help going back up if you take it down to low
- Blinker won't shut off when you turn the corner. You have to manually click it off.
- Brights turn on, but sometimes you have to pull back the lever and then swing it forward real quick. It's the same switch as the blinker, so I'm guessing it just needs a new switch
- It was repainted a few years back. From 10 feet away it looks great, but when you get up close you'll see some of the paint chipping here and there. Nothing terrible...it looks like it was a good paint job, but it definitely wasn't a super high-end paint job.
- Has a few leaks. One looks like it's in the t-case and the other is probably the rear main seal (which is pretty typical for Land Cruisers). A couple drips a day.
- Can't get the glove box open
- Speedometer is off by about 3-4 mph. If you're going 55, you're really going about 51.
- Power antenna motor works, but the antenna doesn't go up and down. The antenna gets reception just fine as-is.
The bad: - The passenger side rocker is pretty rusty. The rest of the truck is much better than average, but that rocker has a couple holes in it. I have a good used rust-free rocker panel from a 1986 FJ60 (same specs as the 88 FJ62) that goes along with the truck. It rusted out because of the chrome strip that used to come there. It's pretty common...they hold in moisture and rust out by where they clip in by the doors.
- Air Conditioning not working. It either needs a recharge (circa $100) or worst-case it needs a new compressor (circa $300)
