Toyota LJ78 advise needed ....
I'm trying to get my head around the Toyota range.. so sorry if its a stupid question, is a 5 door 1992 Toyota LJ78 Diesel auto any good for Overlanding ? I’m looking at Jap imports and a few are filtering through ebay for little money.
It looks like it’s fitted with free wheeling hubs, any good for longer tarmac bias trips. Size wise, its quite square so is the internal size comparable to the 80 series ? I plan on fitting out the back with a bed platform rather than a roof tent.
Does it have Toyota’s reputation for reliability ? and lastly is the 2.5 d a OK engine..
I like the simple looks, if anything it’s a little less expensive looking than the 80 …
Or do I forget it and save up for a 80 ….
Cheers
Matt
