New Mexico - New Guy!

[1994LCNM]

Your name: Paul
Your Cruiser: I know its a 1994, but not sure exactly what type?
Mods on your Cruiser: None, all stock?
Plans for your Cruiser: Off Road / Prepper Monster!

So my father in law had bought this in New Mexico, USA 7 years ago. It was running, but he stopped driving it and I just got it yesterday. I am a grease monkey by nature so I can fix almost anything. e also gave me a few parts to fix it, so I am trying to find out which Land Cruiser this is? Anyone know?

Which forum do I go start asking questions in!

I am excited to work on tis thing!

Hi fbnss,
Thanks for the reply. Can you please give me a rundown on this vehicle, what is an 80 series? Also, I need to replace the tires and I was thinking of some off road set up. Any ideas? Do I need to look for a specific rim type?

An 80 series is clearly the pinnacle of Toyota's range of landcruisers! (Not biased) I'm not an expert by the way if you look in the 80 series part of the forum or use the search function there's loads of info on here.
As for rims I have a 2 inch lift and have squeezed 315/75/16s on my standard rims (same as yours)

oh, it drives a whole lot better on 285/75/16s but dont tell anyone i said that!
