FJ80 80 Series Land Cruiser Overland Build - Brown LLOD FZJ80 with a GFC Rooftop Tent walk around

This is my 97 40th Anniversary, triple locked, FZJ80 Land Cruiser. It is an 80 series that I bought a few months back already pretty well equipped. I added some 37" BFG KO2s on Fifteen52 Analog wheels, threw a GFC tent on top, Installed Slee front lower control arms, and DVS rear panhard bracket to help it track better. Put some Baja Designs lights on the Land Cruiser, and added a few Factor55 components. Oh, I painted it brown - so I think it's maybe the only (or one of the only) brown 80 series out there. The brown 60 series Land Cruisers I've see were inspiration for sure. This is a 97, so it's an FZJ80, though some just refer to them as an FJ80 still.

I've owned 3 generations of LC's for the past 30 yrs all modified overland builds. I currently own a 200 series with 2.5" OME and 34" K2Os. But my '91 FJ80 was my favorite. It's great seeing young guys that continue the passion for impressive overland builds. Thanks for sharing your awesome rig.

Nothing beats the 80 series land cruiser . The best model ever built. No comparison with any other car.

[justingarnick]

You didn’t say “hope you’ve been well”. WTF. I’m hurt. Lol. GreAt rig

[funkya]

I like LC both stylishly new and old, dented & paint faded. They both look great IMO

That's a solid Land Cruiser! I like that the interior has some character, kinda of like my 04' Toyota Tundra.

[billtimmer]

I like that you show all the little things you did to the cruiser, its fun to see how people customize the vehicle rather than just shocks and bumpers that everyone has. Also I love your dog! Thanks for sharing!

You're land cruiser is my phone wallpaper. It's my dream car thanks for sharing your setup.

Our owner is a HUGE old school Toyota guy and had to stop watching when he saw you painted the Gold Trim. Apparently the factory Gold 40th Anniversary trim is extremely hard to get so painting it might upset a few die hard, old school Toyota guys. I would have swapped the Gold with silver trim and painted it black and kept the Gold Trim for another build.

Still a Rock Solid Build, any Toyota guy would die to get his hands on! Keep doing what you're doing!

Can never go wrong with an 80 for an overland or expedition build. I drove a built 95 model all over the country for 10 years. Great choice and enjoy it.

Whole build is cool, love the rear bumper and old school look wheels. Awesome as usual.

You finally gave in and got an 80. Don't forget to add 2 more cylinders. Great choice. I got the forest green 40th, lightly modified.

1993 camry steering wheels are direct fit and rubber compound I believe. Wont wear as bad. Check your local scrap yard and welcome to the 80 community!

It's so awesome to see 80s getting more and more popular again. hopefully if I get my 80 over to the US I'll swing by Colorado :)

Your dog is awesome, your girl is beautiful, and your videos are great. Please keep them up. Only problem is your vids make me want to quit my job and live out of my truck and see the world.

[PURvRAG]

I really appreciate all the detail and opinions in your videos. I think that's why a lot of us watch so don't worry too much about making the videos too long

[ShaneNayani]

Finally found this car, I’ve been seeing this brown and I been loving it❤❤😊

[pizzarolls]

For a maaco paint job, it looks amazing man. It really sticks out with that brown. Looking like a grizzly!

Sweet! The problem these days is you can't find a new 4x4/offroad vehicle that is just very basic. They are all pimped out with so many electronics and luxury items. You have a very cool truck! I know not cheap to do, but kinda fun fixing it up exactly the way you want it! Look forward to more video's on this thing! :)
