New Member with Toy FJ62
« on: May 08, 2013, 04:50:29 AM »
Hi all,

Checking in here, I recently picked up a Land Cruiser and am going to start making it road worthy (exhaust, rust, oil leaks, rust...rust), then move onto making it a trail rig with suspension and tire upgrades.  I'm pretty excited; I have years of part time and recreational wrenching experience, a garage, another daily driver and a good set of tools.  Let the work begin!

Cheers
S

Thanks!  I just ordered an engine overhaul gasket set so I can free up the drip pan that's now living under the bellhousing.  I'll take pics along the way and try to add to the collective knowledge/how to guide here.
