Available

For Sale: 1994 Toyota Land Cruiser FZJ80 – Locking Diffs | OME Lift | 38-Gal Tank | Tasteful Upgrades

This well-equipped 1994 Toyota Land Cruiser FZJ80 with 206,000 miles is an excellent example of the iconic 80-Series platform—renowned for its legendary reliability, solid front axle, and go-anywhere capability. This model is powered by the highly regarded 4.5L 1FZ-FE inline-six engine, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and factory locking front, center, and rear differentials—a rare and desirable combination.

➤ Why the FZJ80 is Better than the FJ80:

The FZJ80 replaced the earlier FJ80 midway through the 1992 model year and introduced the 1FZ-FE 4.5L 24-valve fuel-injected engine, which offered more power, torque, and refinement over the older carbureted or 3FE inline-six in the FJ80. The FZJ80 also included various improvements to interior materials, electronics, and drivetrain reliability. It is generally considered more capable, more modern, and more valuable than its predecessor.

➤ What is a Center Differential Lock and Why It Matters:

The center differential lock allows the front and rear axles to rotate at the same speed, which is essential in low-traction situations like snow, sand, or mud. This Land Cruiser goes even further, with locking front and rear differentials, giving it true triple-locked status—providing maximum traction by ensuring all four wheels receive equal power. These features, combined with its solid axle and rugged design, make this Land Cruiser one of the most capable off-road vehicles ever built.
