Just bought my new/used trail rig. 150,000 miles nice condition with minimal things to do on it. Runs good just needs a brake job. Negotiated the price down to $7900. Only thing I didn't get were lockers the ones with lockers the price was 3-4 thousand more. What do you guys think, did I get a good deal.

So when I can use your 4runner since I know you won't be driving that as much

Looking at it in person makes the deal even better! Great find!!

 

Thanks Lance, As far as the runner don't know yet, I'll have to draw up a schedule its between you and my wife.

 

link didnt work...

GOT LOCKERS?

 

Tri it again, should work now.

 

love that generation of landcruisers.. congrats.

 

looks good man!

 

got a 97 and love it, although mine doesnt have the V6 as yours does

 

Looking good! Are you going to lift it and put 35's on it?

 

Thats one fancy trail rig - I checked out a one LC's when I was Yota shoping. Is there much differenc in size between the 2 rigs? They look to be about the same in the photo but I have yet to park next to one. Is the LC longer or wider?

 

Excellent! I scored my '97 in Dec. and love it. The gf and I fight over who gets to drive it.

You know I am. I already have a list of mods- Lift, Exhaust, various engine mods, and ofcourse new shoes. Supercharger would be cool, but I don't think I can sneek another s/c past the better half.

 

The difference is mostly in the back, the LC has a bigger butt than the runner, and handles a little bit stiffer. Besides that Its a sweet ride.

 

You need to change the V6 in your sig to I6.

 

What does the I stand for?

 

I = In-line. All the cylinders are in a straight line rather than 3 on a side in the shape of a V.

 

OHHHHH, Is there an advantage to having an inline v the regular way?

 

Think of a 4 cylinder with 2 extra cylinders, it's just a smoother engine then a V6, their are advantages but it's more like do you perfer a V6 or a V8, you do realize the IS300 has a straight 6, nice ride

 

Well I learn a new thing everyday. Thank You

 

I think I've heard that the straight 6's are more reliable and maybe develop better torque for their displacement. But they need more space up front so they aren't as popular as they once were.
