Well here's Land Cruiser #3 since I started this thread and the last one for a very long time. This one has everything I've wanted in a cruiser so no reason to look for another one.
Here's the specs
1999 100 Series, 98,000 miles when I bought it, came from Arizona so no rust, 2" OME suspension with Slee torsion bars, 4.88 gears ( amazing how much better the gas mileage is with the lower gear set ), rear e-locker, front ARB locker, ARB compressor, ARB front bull bar, White Knuckle Sliders, Warn HS 9.5 winch, Warn driving lights, Safari snorkel, TJM rear bumper with spare swing out, 43 gallon sub-tank, new 315/75R16 BFG KO2 tires, ARB frig, custom rear storage system, 15 gallon fresh water storage with pump and spigot, full roof rack, HEO awning, CB and Ham radio.
Here's a few pics from a recent trip to the mountains of western North Carolina and east Tennessee.

Gosh dang!
I ALMOST got a 100 series instead of my 'new to me' 4runner.
I"m sure in the future I'll be trying to track one down.

Ugh. I was reading this today from beginning to end and I got emotionally attached to your 80! then you got rid of it. Nice 100, though. I am glad it is all you want so you don't need to do anything besides maintenance and gas

I miss my Land Cruiser also. Getting the itch to get back in one.

I'm going to put some 285/75R/16's on it and some Weather Tech floor mats but that will probably be it since it's my DD. Now I have a 2003 4Runner to sale, it's on the classifieds if anyone is looking. I'm glad gas is cheaper so it won't be as painful to drive. I averaged 16.7 MPG coming back from South Carolina so not bad but going to be a lot less than my V-6 4Runner.

Found a killer deal on another 100 series so started a new build.
The day I bought it
After adding a OME 2.5" lift and 295/75R16 Nitto TG
Now working on bumpers, sliders, and roof rack.
Mocked up bumpers
New Smittybilt X20 12k winch
Rear bumper will have dual swingouts, one with ladder and jerry can holder and other with spare tire mount.

Got the 100 series back this week from the fabricator, really happy with the results. Now I have to hook up the winch, CB, and lights. Headed out for a long trail ride this coming week in western North Carolina.

Thanks! I have a local guy that does fab work in the evenings and weekends and he does a great job. He did everything for what I would have to pay Slee for the rear bumper alone.

Back in the hundy club!! Your 80 was awesome but I think the 100 is overall a better truck. If the 80 had the 4.7 v8 or a turbo diesel it would be a diff story. That 4.5 just doesn't have enough guts. Anyways sweet 100! Do you have the white one still or just the red? Here's mine

I deleted the muffler on my 100, sounds pretty good but I'm going to put it back on this week. Seems I've lost some power and I think because of the lack of back pressure.

Took a ride last weekend over to Hurricane Creek in NC and came back through the Gulf Rd in east Tennessee.

Overall conclusions
I have read this thread completely and have thoroughly enjoyed it! So what are your guys' overall assessment/opinions of 80 and 100 series Land Cruisers in terms of comparison? Which is better for what? likes, dislikes?
