Meet Sully - My 1998 FJ100 Toyota Land Cruiser with 250,000 miles

He's big, blue, and gets a glorious 11-15 mpg with premium gas. Meet Sully! At 250k miles, he's seem better days, but the drivetrain is solid and he should have a lot of life left. In today's video, we'll run over everything I've learned about the truck so far, and some of my plans for it going forward.

My ‘99 has 515,000 miles. It runs strong and rides better then my dads 2013 200 series.

I was searching a used vehicle for myself and had come across 1998 toyota land cruiser. Found your video on KZbin. I'm amazed how these toyota's can just go on and on. Very nice video 👍. Giving proper details.

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

Thanks for watching!

I have the 98 cruiser with lockers the good year it's got 330k and doesn't burn a drop of oil and oil stays clean best vehicle I've ever hard only thing seems hard to get parts and they are costly and notice theres more parts for the fj 80 and the model after the 100 series

[@akshaymehmi4713]

Beautiful truck! I've got a '99 with almost 300,000 miles!

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

Awesome! Any tips for keeping it on the road?

[@akshaymehmi4713]

@@NeverEndingProjectGarage Regular maintenance is all you need tbh - the 100 series practically take care of the rest!

Finally a person with common sense. To often guys make it seem like they will ever use half the shit they spend on equipment and add ons that qill never be used.

They've got to flex for the internet somehow, right?

I’ve wanted a FJ 100 for the better part of a decade. Finally found my dream truck this week. Black 98 with 277K. I’m the third owner! Love yours as well.

[@brooklynd3526]

Hi! I totally enjoyed your video! Sounds like you So Enjoy your Cruiser! Yea & again foe being 20!! stinkin' years old!! Dude thats dope! ... So what I am truly interested in is you mentioned you had your timing chain replaced... may I please ask how much this was for you?, if it's not too personal? I am looking to acquire one sometime in mid-summer this year! Cruise On!

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

Thanks! The timing belt + water pump was around $1000 at a Toyota dealer.

[@hazemgiballi]

Clif D can have it done at an independent shop for $5-600 with water pump. Shop around

Where can I get an owner's manual in english for 98 L/C 100 series with a turbo diesel. Mine came in all Japanese.

[@Colorado4x4]

Nice rig! Is it still hanging in there? Do you have an update video?

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

It's hanging in there! There will be videos coming soon where I'm getting it ready to be a tow vehicle for the new car.

[@wesammansour1486]

LC's are great vehicles,but i really wish you guys can get the mighty Nissan Patrol.. It's one of the best off road vehicles ever.. Cheers

[@carholic-sz3qv]

they are basically the same and the nissan get worst gas mileage compare to this

[@hectorhernandez1983]

Hi. I liked your video content, but you really need a camera with image stabilisation. It was very difficult for watch.

[@gabegalera]

Do 98s come with a key with buttons to lock unlock?

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

Mine did, yeah. But, it came with an aftermarket keyless entry/start system, so I can't use the buttons on the keys.

[@foxgrove60]

Yes

[@RalphDaVillain]

Order a long ranger fuel tank. Your will no longer be a problem!

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

I don't think anyone makes one that works for US models.

[@MINHAJ882]

How much do these things run for with 250k miles?

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

It really depends on condition, I've seen them go from anywhere from 3-25k with that mileage. Condition, modifications, and current maintenance matter a lot more.

[@reorx76]

Nice tatoo

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

Thanks!

[@stocksj]

What did that 98 cost you?

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

4500, but I immediately spent another 1k on the timing belt and water pump, so figure 5500 to get it up to speed.

[@nature4free283]

I got a 1999 land cruiser with 189k miles I guess that's low miles lol

[@NeverEndingProjectGarage]

Yeah, that does seem kinda low....get on that!
