Tempe AZ: 1969 Toyota 4X4 FJ55 LAND CRUISER PORTAL AXLED ROCK CRAWLER - PRICE DROP!
 
3 Attachment(s)
Have you ever wanted to move up to an extreme rock crawling rig complete with 4 wheel steering and portal axles? Well, this is your chance to buy a complete extreme rock crawler for less than the cost of the parts that went into building it!!

This is a custom built 1969 Toyota FJ55 Land Cruiser 4x4 with a balanced and blueprinted Chevy 350 engine and a built TH350 transmission. The truck has dual transfer cases using a stock FJ60 case mated to the gear reduction of a NP203 case. The heavily trussed axles are identical rear axles from a FJ60 with 4 Hummer Portal Steering boxes at the ends. Final crawl ratio is 270:1. These were professionally trussed and built by Dutchman Motorsports in Portland, OR using stock parts available at dealers and even NAPA stores! The tires are 42" Interco Super Swamper TSLs wrapped around steel 15x10 8-lug Hummer wheels. The rig rides on a custom ball link suspension for extreme travel. The suspension is fully adjustable at all 4 corners using HD Firestone Semi-Truck Air Ride Air Bags supplied with air from an underhood Caterpillar 3208 Tu-Flo 501 belt driven air compressor controlled by 4 Parker manual air valves. Air bag suspension provides a full 15" of height adjustability. Full hydraulic front and rear steering with Danfoss cylinders and rear steer lockout mounts.

This rig is street legal and licensed, but is purpose built for extreme rock crawling. Wheelbase is 120", width 82" and weight is right at 5000#.

Purchased recently for my wife, but is too much for her to handle right now.

PM me for any questions, more info, specs and build sheet. This build project totalled over $45K. Price dropped to $11,000 OR BEST OFFER. Possible partial delivery negotiable - will meet you at any AZ border.
Located in TEMPE, AZ.

GOOD LORD, ..... I wish so badly I could just grab every INSANELY SICK right that I found for sale! :cry2:

Rebel..... BEST WISHES on this, sir! BUMP-GIGGIDY-BUMP!

PS> ... this has to be painful to get rid of..., a lil bit?

Rebelnoclu 06-07-2012 02:04 PM

Thanks Chef!

Yes, a little painful. This rig is loads of fun to wheel. Don't have to pay much attention to line, it just crawls over pretty much anything you aim it at!! We were hoping my wife would be able to use it to wheel with me in my 4Runner, but it's just too much truck for her to handle. She didn't really grasp the idea of the air bag system being able to keep the body pretty much level no matter what the suspension is doing. So we will get her something built, but simpler to operate once we sell this one.

Yeah, it's a bit to remember off hand, with "magic apron" training(You know, when you hand em the keys and say, "Ok, climb that!") hahaha. JK, I'm sure you tried.... but sure, she's gotta be comfortable, man... no doubt!

But wow, what a CLASSIC/CAPABLE/4WHEEL STEER/ULTRA UNIQUE RIDE! I mean, someone could spend that much ON THE UPGRADES, i would imagine, alone! That wouldn't include the cost of something that rare.

Very nice, man.... Wish I had the funds to DO something like this right now(don't wanna clog up your listing any more with props, lol... Just ...WOW!)

Best wishes, ...sell that bad boy! lol.

BUMP!

I've added this to a few threads, Rebel... I would love to see someone on here enjoying it! (So I can live vicariously through them/pertaining to a toy that I can't really justify grabbing for myself? hahaha).

BTTT!
