Mine came from Ft Jackson. I bought it six weeks ago,and broke down on the way home... I was so new and have been scouring this site to figure what went wrong. Six weeks later I pick it up from my mechanic, and the answer I got was a loose wire on the glow plug control module... He also said the battery and the drivers side alt was bad. I got it home and it would not start. I put a new rear battery in and drove it around all day. I bought a NAPA 31 series battery. I think it was just the battery the whole time. No gen lights on, batterys holding the charge, and both alts are 10-8. I am soo happy with it. I have a long list of things to replace based on my research here. Tom she gets a new starter relay and glow plug resistor. She is in absolutely amazing condition with 95,000 miles and just very little surface rust is the best part. My FJ-40 landcruiser is in rusty pieces after I waited to fix the body AFTER fixing most everything else you can name. Mistake and lesson learned. It was a headquarters vehicle, so I am assuming they kept it nice for the "o's" to ride in? Does the star painted on the front mean a one star used it? It will be my daily driver and adventure/hunting vehicle. Sorry to the purists, but next week or so 4" of lift, all the gear to make it right after the lift, and the the wheels and 35's off of my landcruiser. Once I wear the 35's out I will run 33's. So proud of it, and cheers to all the folks that have posted and have me on my way! I will post pics tom. Thanks again!
