  • Moving on to a V8

    Well after 8 years of prado 120 VX ownership I have purchased a new vehicle.
    Still a toyota but this time a new single cab cruiser.
    After reading and learning a lot on this forum it will be time t move on (I dont know about forward yet).
    It has always been interesting sometimes frustrating but never dull.
    I am looking forward to building this vehicle up to be a strong capable long distance tourer.


    Regards

      Wow . From a vx prado to a single cab cruiser as a long distance tourer , that's a bold step . Are you going to carry a camper on the back ?
      03 grande v6 , with added stuff that makes it go places . RTFM people !

        Camper

        Yep we are aiming to put a trayon slideon camper on the back.
        I have ordered it with Barwork for the front and sides I got a GVM upgrade with a 2 inch OME lift supported by sumo springs.
        I will be taking the experience I learnt off PP in self wiring up an solis and stable electrical setup.
        We are also putting in an auto box from wholesale automatics in Melbourne. First off tho I am getting a waterwatch system installed.
        I am also carrying over from the prado the UHF, inverter and TPMS and IPAD stand.
        DPchip and 3" beaudesert will also be done, I had this setup in the Prado and was extremely happy with the improvement in power delivery.

        Just a few mods

        Regards
