168K Mile - 1993 Toyota Land Cruiser - Frankman Motor Company - Walk Around & Driving

1993 Toyota Land Cruiser
Originating out of necessity in 1950, the Korean War created demand for a military light utility vehicle.

The Japanese military authorities ordered Toyota to produce a similar vehicle to a Jeep but to alter the appearance.

The 80 series, which is what this body style is referred to as!

Brought many great changes to this full time 4wd "Station Wagon" Platform;
Introduction of 16″ wheels
Rear axle changes to full floater with disk brakes when equipped with ABS
Introduction of 4.5l 24 valve motor
Front and Rear factory lockers become an option!
Automatic transmission – Electronic Controlled A442Fwith mechanical lockup converter (O/D on off switch)
Somewhere in 1993 the AC system changed from R12 to R134.
With the R12 systems the dryer unit was in front of the battery and with the R134 it moved to behind the bumper.
Radiator is a 3 row brass core.

With extensive aftermarket support, and having earned a name in the off-roading community as a "Tank"

Any Toyota aficionado will tell you that the 80 Series is an amazing platform to build a camping/ adventure vehicle!
