Big Top GT

I have a 96 Land Cruiser my father in law bought with a salvage title... It's got some frame damage and is in generally poor condition.

It needs what I think are axle seals out back (both sides, i think) and a bad CV shaft up front...

It also binds up really badly when you try to move the truck and turn at the same time. It's so bad you can't idle through a turn. The car won't move until you step on the gas.

Is that normal and are these things I can do myself? I'm pretty mechanically inclined (I'll be installing the blower on my Cobra soon) so I can do just about anything.. Do I need special tools or anything?

Lastly, where can I get door panels and tan leather seats to replace the ones that are badly torn? (or parts in general)

Thanks for looking guys.. I know there's a Land Cruiser forum but there's not much traffic over there.

Thanks again guys,
Alan
