I mean that is a lot of money for that... with leaf springs... if it was linked and had coils... I don't know. for that kind of money you can buy a 70's seriers land crusier or prado.
 
Lotta money involved in those builds. Very nice to look at.
I would be too worried someone stealing it if I had something like it.
 
Meh... the reason I sold my FJZ80 was the track was too wide for my liking. Lots of pinstriping and trail issues, so much worry for a spotter vs the 3rd gens which are just more maneuverable.

This probably has its applications, but I'd rather just buy an FJZ80 with triple lockers, a little lift and 35" if I'm going that route. It would be more reliable (less of a "hackjob") and save thousands.

Plus 240k miles, he basically overbuilt it. For 20k, maybe?
 
Overbuilt? Yeah. Overpriced? For sure. Would I have made some different decisions if it was my time and money? Yes.

But... do I LOVE seeing rigs like this? Absolutely!! :D

It is sweet for sure but we all have criticisms, mine is why leafs in the front? If you're going to go through all the trouble of doing a SAS, I'd want coils up there. The shackle looks like 1920s tech in the back. Otherwise though, its sweet as heck.
 
No way he gets 17mpg around town and 19-20 highway with those big tires. I have 33s on mine and get 15-16 around town and 17-18 highway.
