I dont know the truck but looks like a good buy.
Toyota Landcruiser FJ40, front and rear lockers, 35" simex.
Toyota FJ45 build in progress.
Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set.

I don't know much about it apart from seeing it on a few club trips and it seems like a very capable truck with the turbo diesel and coils all round etc, Ill find out more about it then post the info up.!!

Funny, its obviously the same guys looking at the same trucks on Trademe all the time
I had asked a few questions on this auction previously...
From memory (and it was a while ago) Dont think he had changed diff ratios (or gearbox/tranny ratios). The engine would turn the 35s but I imagine would be sluggish.
Seams like he's reduced to a much better price range.

With the turbo on it shouldnt have much trouble turning the 35"s, theyre only 10.5" wide
