  • If anyone is interested we ( my electrical engineer son ) has started to make a batch of T/C lockups for the A750 5 sp auto's. These will fit either the 100 series or 120 Prado's with the A750 5 sp.

    Cost will be $350 plus postage. These units will have push button to lock and brake light to unlock or for an extra few dollars have any type of switching you want.

    We cannot guaranty you won't hurt your A750 but i have been using mine for several years in the 120 with nil issues.

    Just PM me if you want one.

    Thanks.

    Russell.

      Interesting mod. I was looking at getting the wholesale autos lockup kit but they told me I cannot use it on the sand which is where I was getting the heat build up from the torque convertor the most. Does anyone know how to safely run a lockup on the beach/sand?

      cheers,

      You can't use it on deep sand because you need the torque to plough through it - this applies to any. I have done some experimenting on Goolwa Beach

      I am very pleased with mine - I paid $490 for it at the 4wd show and on a recent trip towing my camper saved me 2litres/100 km. Got 12.8 average going to Barmera including some non locked up driving through Adelaide in shocking traffic against 15 for the previous trip to Broken Hill

        • Just finished testing the last version of lockup switch, with PCB boards instead of multi wires. Improved plugs as well.
          My son (Trav ) will make 10 kits for the A750 to suit 120 series 5 sp and Landcruiser 100 5 sp. Cost will remain at $350 plus postage.
          If you want one please send PM.

              • You will need power, earth, and cut 2 wires from the ECU and solder in new wires to control unit. Remove glove box and trim and access is easy.

                Will post pics later.

                • Hi Rusty, Bugger,Bugger. I have just returned from trip to Perth. We traded old single axle Jayco for new Jayco Journey tandem axle. Bit heavier but nicer to tow. I bought and fitted a Wholesale Automatics lock up kit while down there. Just over $600 with postage. I had my own ready to fit at home but didn't have the confidence. Oh well. My beast is coming up to 200ks shortly and is going sweet except for the clunk into reverse. I think its the rear diff play. I met a mate the other day owns a hilux with D4D engine has over 300ks on with nothing done to engine except normal oil,filters etc.
                  just keep driving he said. I had a pleasant surprise the other day, I went to Darwin Toyota and asked about new dash as mine looks like a road map. A week later he rang me back and said new upgraded one on the way from Japan. No charge including fitting. Has to be under 10 years old. Im chuffed. Hope all is well your end and I know that you will do well with the new kits. Great price too. Take care and cheers Bill.
