1992 Toyota Land Cruiser V8

1992 Toyota Land Cruiser Description

1992 Toyota Land Cruiser with a 6.0 LQ4 for sale. This truck was originally built by TJM for Off-Road Expo and the engine swap was later done by Steel Nutz Off Road in Murietta California. The truck is rust free and exceptionally clean inside and out. From what I can tell the truck had around 178000 miles before the engine swap and 10000 miles have been put on since then.

I have a whole folder filled with receipts and work orders from the previous owner. This truck has served me well but it is time to move on to something else. It sounds great, has enough power to get out of its own way, and will take you anywhere you need to go.

The Bad:

-The previous owner attempted to register the truck in California and therefore had to install catalytic converters and change the intake from the snorkel. The cats are no longer there but the exhaust hangs lower than it needs to and the snorkel is not currently doing anything other than letting some fresh air into the engine bay.

- The truck cruises fine at 80 mph but tends to wander around in the lane. An alignment or steering upgrade could fix this.

-The center differential lock was not working when I first purchased the truck and is now wired to a separate switch to the left of the steering wheel. It functions the same as the original switch in the center dash.

-At some point the truck was repainted its original white color. It was a quality paint job but is showing signs of age to a keen eye.

-Front knuckles are about half way to needing a rebuild but are still dry and do not click.

-No lockers
