Overview of 1971 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 For Sale by Owner

Taking the essence of the famed WWII era jeep, Toyota produced the Land Cruiser FJ40 series utility vehicle from 1960 to 1984. It is also an evolution of the Toyota BJ series trucks. With the gradual progression of functional improvements and upgrades over the years, the FJ40 Land Cruiser was the bestselling Toyota within two years of importation. This particular example of the 1971 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 raises the bar with a staggering build sheet. Currently located in California, this unique, custom-built Cruiser features a Chevy 350CI V8 engine, among other upgrades.

Exterior and Interior

Arguably the first thing you will notice on this Land Cruiser is the custom-built Stinger front bumper, which carries a Smittybilt XRC 9,500 lb winch with a nylon rope mounted on the front end. Other custom built features include body guards, sliders, steps, a new Bikini soft top, and a multi-point roll bar. The original metal exterior on this Land Cruiser is painted in white, and it offers two sets of doors that can be removed for that open-air experience. Old Man Emu 2" lift springs and Ranchero RS9000 shocks take care of the ride height, which is another imposing feature of this FJ40. This Cruiser rides on 35" BFG mud terrain tires and Pro Comp wheels with matching spare with disc brakes on all four wheels. Under the body, a front shackle reversal kit is included, extending the wheelbase by 2 inches by moving the front axle forward. This FJ40 features KC Spotlights, undercarriage lights, and LED rear taillights, making it ideal for late- night off-roading. Additionally, it features a swing put basket and CB radio antenna, holder. The interior, finished in black, is fitted with sport bucket seats with lap belts, a CB radio, and a heater unit, which is a rare option. It also includes Stewart Warner gauges and a tilt wheel steering column.

The power is sent to the wheels via a GM turbo 400 3 speed automatic transmission. It features 4.10 gear front and rear axles, a Lock- Right front locker, and a Detroit rear locker. Furthermore, a 4.0:1 low gear Orion transfer case, Hurst electronic brake lock, Power brakes with adjustable dampening, and power steering is fitted to this FJ40 Land Cruiser.

1978 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ55

VERIFIED SELLER
SOLD

The Fifty Series or J50 Toyota Land Cruiser is one of those comparatively lesser-known sorts in the United States. Produced between 1967 and 1980, it marked the start of the Station Wagon line-up of the Land Cruiser family, the ones that were slightly less hardcore than the Heavy Duty series, and more SUV-like. Today’s 1978 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ55 is a fine example that’s weathered the test of time over the years. Now, it sits proud in Chapel Hill waiting for a new owner, and rocks just 305 miles after a full frame-off restoration. If you’re a Land Cruiser fan but want something a little less mainstream, this vehicle is perfect!
