Hey guys,
I am new to the Land Cruiser world and have just recently bought myself a 1993 80 Series GXL 4.2 Diesel Land Cruiser. She needs a bit of love and I'm in the process of fixing her up so she can be the mighty stallion she once was. So far with everything going according to plan, the cost of getting the basics to what they should be, should leave me with about $3000 left in my budget to make her a real 4WD.
My question to you guys is "In your experience, where would that money go in order to make the most of both the money and the 4WD?"
I plan to use her for 4WDing and touring around Australia. I also need to use it to get to work, and to drive down to see my family who are 400km away so please be mindful before you say "just put super big tyres on it" because because I need a half respectable fuel economy. She's just about stock standard with the exception of the the 2 inch lift and the factory bull bar.
The more specific, the better.
Cheers
Fieldsy
