    Anyone know these guys?

    It will depend on where and who the vehicle was bought from. You can find vehicles in really good condition, but bear in mind a 75 series from the 80s was inevitably used as a workhorse sometime in its life and will have multiple owners. Inspect them thoroughly. I can testify for what...

    Suspension seats?

    The only experience I've had with suspension seats is not very good. Although I haven't had experience with Corbeau, the stock Pajero seats we had down here had lockable suspension seats, and most people lock them for a reason. I feel like those things make the ride feel even bumpier, as they...

    Need an 80 series front bench seat!

    There are, as mentioned, LHD 80 series split bench seats. The parking brake is the same. I just replied to a similar thread in ih8mud. There also are Recaro made seats with a fold down jump seat between them. Sort of like full-sized pickups. These are very, very rare. I'm not sure if they were...

    Toyota 90 Series LC Prado

    Both Prados have stock headlight assemblies. The 7" round headlight assemblies were stock for the first model years, I believe. We never had those early model ones, so the PO bought them overseas and installed them. The previous one is actually one model-year newer than the current one. The...

    Toyota 90 Series LC Prado

    well, these 90s are basically a two door version of third gen 4Runner. The four door version (95 series) share the exact same chassis, drivetrain and powertrain components with the 4WD third gen 4runners. They also share the powertrain and front end with the first gen Tacomas, so you do have...

    Toyota 90 Series LC Prado

    Thank you! a few more pics from December: These sandy doubletracks are our rig's bread and butter: Pretty much the standard way in and out of our fishing spots They're also extremely beautiful and fun to drive through at high speeds. You need to mind the sand though, and know where it gets...

    Toyota 90 Series LC Prado

    Hello, I'd like to introduce a new-to-me vehicle: a 90 series Land Cruiser. This might not be a common sight for you guys in the states, but they're pretty popular down here. This is actually my third 90 series, its replacing one really similar to it and its the most comprehensively modded one...

    Garmin GPSMAP 276CX

    There is a reason Garmin released a new 276C. Sure, you can do pretty much anything your smart phone, and they even have larger screen, but the ruggedness of these devices are the key. These devices might go obsolete, but visit any place where navigation is day-to-day essential, and most...

    The importance of a rear dust light in the southwest.

    Wow this thread has picked up. If one or the other vehicle has to move out of the way, it doesn't mean the other one shouldn't slow down or drive cautiously before they're given way. I think prerunners and high speed off road vehicles will be condemned to closed tracks if this gets out of...

    60 series seat suggestion?

    People here usually swap the seats for other Toyota ones that fit just fine. Its common to see a 60 series with VX 80 series seats ( which would be same as your 40th anniversary ones). Apparently they bolt right into 60 and 70 series brackets.. We had a special edition 80 come with a set of...

    The importance of a rear dust light in the southwest.

    I will insist: driving inside a dust cloud is plain dumb. I don't believe any of the posters is doubting the use of rearward facing lights, what they are saying is that you shouldn't be in that cloud in the first place, even if you can see the vehicle in front of you. And that you shouldn't be...

    The importance of a rear dust light in the southwest.

    I am all for bombing down a dirt road at high speeds. But common knowledge dictates you shouldn't be driving in a dust cloud, at close range with another vehicle and at high speeds. Its dangerous and not good for your car. It DOES NOT dictate you should approach the vehicle at high speeds and...

    The 255/85R16 Tire Official List

    Well, pretty much any tire is hard to find right now, at least not for a decent price. I don't need international shipping, I just need to ship them to Miami, Fl in order to get them on a boat down here. I just need to find a site that lists them in that size. It seems that site is the ticket...

    ARB intensity AR40 light bar

    You're absolutely right. I've seen the IPFs up close, impressive units, haven't seen them perform . I believe the Vision X were the first ones to build a true, round, LED aux light.

    ARB intensity AR40 light bar

    I like the mounting system they used. And even though I agree its a saturated segment, I don't think they'll have a harder time selling these than any other high-end manufacturer. I must add that I don't particularly like light bars, I prefer round lights. LED or otherwise. I hope manufacturers...
