hi to all Lj 80 lovers
Wow what a great site... as a kid i recall dad had a yellow Lj80 and I loved it. I remember one weekend at rainbow beach Australia there were cruisers,patrols and hiluxs bogged all on one track, but not us,haha we cruised past all of them asking if they needed a hand to get out, grunts were the reply..after owning my share of cruisers, hilux, wrangler and patrols I have now just picked up a 1980 Lj 80 in excelent condition original condition.im so happy to finally have one, the elderly couple shed a tear when they dropped it off to my partner.i will be using mostly for beach driving so I really need to run at least 31 inch tyres and a lift to get it clear of the deep tracks,and a tad more power from her,id love to hear from you all.anyway hello from Glen in Australia.

Welcome nice Lj. Not sure if I like the front bull bar protection though. Each to there own.

Thanks fella,s. I think the tubes off bullbar are something to do with it being towed behind a motor home most of its life, if my rods fit I will be using them.
