@Ducky's Dad, You can't really come to a conclusion by comparing the sheer # of REPAIRS without also comparing the # of SALES. ARB's literature rates the single at 50% duty cycle and the twin at 100% duty cycle (tested at the same ambient temp). The article you referenced said the twin ran...

Bumpers turned out great!

I've gone through a couple sets of 285/75R18 now and will continue to buy them for my 100 series. The size is starting to get popular. I'm hoping more will get on board so that I have more choices. I've compiled a list to help you =) : Toyo MT, AT-II, RT Nitto Ridge Grappler, Terra Grappler G2...

Would be interesting to test the two... as the Twin compressor has a cooling fan and would be running half as long as the single.

The dimensions make it less than optimal for me but I do like the Piezo igniter. Mountaineer: Closed Dimensions: 25.25" x 13.75 " x 5.25" Cook Partner 22" Width: 22” Length: 12” Height: 3 ¾” (closed)

It's definitely possible. There are many JDM diesel imports with CA plates.

Here's that 900km article... 186K miles between "rebores" might not sound that impressive today but this article was written 25 years ago. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/interesting-1fz-fe-80series-article.401807/ I don't know what is meant by "service life" but as far as 25 years.... here...

The "F" in A442F is for Four Wheel Drive. The Coaster is RWD. You can compare the internals of both if you would like. A442E RWD A442F 4WD Here's a Coaster... https://www.ramadbk.com/japanese-used-toyota-coaster-buses_534365.html

I can't say I'm a fanboy but rather a long time enthusiast. I would certainly love to own a Y61 Patrol or G-wagen... even a LWB Samurai. A Ford F250 or PowerWagon would be great too if I needed a larger truck. Anyway, I can answer some of those questions.... The early FZJ80 had an A442F...

I would say most of the folks that are over GVWR are because of off-road gear like bumpers, sliders, oversized tires, winch, tools, recovery gear and spare parts. That could add 5-700 lbs, easily. If you stick to fire roads and such, you could save a lot of weight.

I'll let you folks hash out the child safety. But I will say body on frame SUV's offer little in the way of crush zones. How many airbags is irrelevant for newborns that sits in the 2nd row, middle seat. When I look at accidents with 60,70 and 80's... I see the weak point being the "A" and "C"...

Try calling Partner Steel directly, they've accommodated special requests for me in the past. Half a stove should be no problem.

GX470 or GX460? They are quite different.

Most folks just replace with standard fuse.

This is from 7 years ago....

Nice work! Another option to get that double burner is to use a bin for the sink. Less required mounting depth too, so the adjacent storage drawer could be deeper. Obviously, you'd need to store the bins but they could be collapsible.

There is a ~2" difference in cargo width between 100's w/ rear AC and w/o it.

Are you referring to the gas tank skid plate?

^^FYI, Toyota did offer part time 4wd w/ selectable hubs on IFS 100's in some markets.

Old Man Emu Australia offers GVWR/GVM upgrades. The kits include new springs, shocks and a new GVWR/GVM plate. In all cases, the upgraded GVWR never never exceeds the GAWR. https://www.arb.com.au/products/old-man-emu-4x4-suspension/gvm-upgrades/
