Forgotten Landcruiser Truck Revival? 1987 2F First Start in 7 Years! Will it RUN AND DRIVE? PT2

When working on Landcruisers is your full time job my absolute favorite days is when I get the chance to go see and purchase another one. This truck is no different as I received a call from a good friend regarding a fj60 rusting away in his friends backyard. Then boom I'm talking to the truck owner and trying to make a deal.

[@mizeadventure9438]

Appreciate this comment.

Truck looks great! I just blacked out my front end as well. Love the look of it.

[@JesseKreis]

The missing spring is usually due to owners trying to correct the hood deforming. It's a known issue that 60 hoods get twisted because the springs lose their strength enough for the weight of the hood, so the passenger side droops a bit. When the truck sits with the hood prop up too much for too long, you get a hood that sits too high when closed on the drivers side. They seem to think removing the driver side spring will help, but it can't because the prop keeps the driver side higher always. I think the only fix would be to put a stronger spring on the passenger side to counter the affect of the prop.

I honestly don’t think you can go wrong with either keeping it original chrome or blacking it out. Looking forward to following this!

[@mizeadventure9438]

Love that. I really liked the black out look honestly

[@roadstergarage9914]

Very entertaining video! “That’s how all projects are!” Motivated me to work on my 80

[@mizeadventure9438]

Glad you enjoyed it. That’s awesome!! Get on it!

[@kevinbanker7814]

I personally dig the black on tan look. That’s gonna be another great truck when you are finished with it. Love the trick about the non-abs 4 runner booster.

[@mizeadventure9438]

Improves braking as well with that booster which I like

[@birsob]

Really enjoying the fj60 episodes I’d love to see some on a diesel motor 👀

[@joyridaz]

My rig is a mixture of black, chrome, and white…. Looks good but i wish I could see it fully chromed. The bumpers, grills, and body chrome bits like vents and plate light were backed out. I didn’t chef the black rims and went back to chrome steelies and love the look.

[@mizeadventure9438]

I would imagine your rig looks awesome with all that done

[@evercampos6388]

Great video bro!

[@ItsIzz2.0]

Your videos are awesome and funny dude! I want me one! I think I will put up my 80 and 1st gen 4runner for sale come spring time!

[@mizeadventure9438]

Sick won’t go back once your in one

[@TheJakeRobinson]

Have you ever dine a De-smogging video - how to? There seems to be a lot of contradictory info on the interwebs - maybe you would consider one? Cheers

[@robertwright5778]

Any tips on where you find such sweet rigs? I’m always looking for a new fj55 project but they are getting harder and harder to find.

[@mizeadventure9438]

They are out there just need to keep looking. That 55 in the back of my videos could be forsale.

[@cyberburnzy]

Nice tip about the 4-runner brake booster. Since it is desmogged , is that carb a CityRacer?

[@mizeadventure9438]

its a good trick. is a stock carb. not city racer.

[@nathanclay5798]

Nice video

[@danieldufur7474]

Why does the truck sound so good? The 2F has a rumble I haven’t heard! Did you do something to the exhaust?? I even noticed on your first time starting it... sounds like a freaking warplane!

[@mizeadventure9438]

Haha no exhaust. She will sound normal in the next video when a factory set goes back on.

[@danieldufur7474]

Oooohh hahaha... I’m doing a project right now too dude, been a year and a half process being out of college and getting my 2F rebuilt on my 60. Thanks for the vids! Doing a custom exhaust on my rig-- what kind of exhaust header do you recommend?

[@mizeadventure9438]

Sor 2 piece headers. Expensive but worth it

[@danieldufur7474]

Where does one get it?

[@mizeadventure9438]

SOR it’s a website

[@DuanDao]

I have a perfectly good running 04 LX470 and I want one of these...there's something wrong w/ me

[@mizeadventure9438]

Nahh these are timeless and bring a lot of joy to people when your a owner of something like this

[@TheToyotaGuys]

Hey man. You have any parts for sale? I’m look for doors for my 1988 FJ 62

[@mizeadventure9438]

I do but don’t have a good 88 door

[@danieldufur7474]

Does your KZbin channel help support your passion financially?

[@daleaustin7964]

Maaaate how many 60’s do you have?

[@mizeadventure9438]

Way to many haha

[@ItsIzz2.0]

Hey Jonas - Do you treat the undercarriage?

[@mizeadventure9438]

Yes I’ll be doing this one

[@benbujwah]

You still driving the blue truck?

[@mizeadventure9438]

All day everyday. Norah is my Mine rig

[@mizeadventure9438]

Main

[@brandonromero2846]

Keep it original

[@a.4656]

[@mizeadventure9438]
