Purchased a couple of things from a amayama.com, still getting things at a good price, the trick is to purchase more than one item as it’s a flat rate $15 for shipping, so purchased a drivers footrest and a left and right passenger door outside trim seal, for some reason both of mine are cracked and coming apart.

No way, not a hoist as well, you don’t live in the Pilbara do you, we could share

Unfortunately mate i'm down on the mid north coast of NSW, if i was up that way you could definitely use it.

I wish I had the room for a hoist, I've been talking to the wife suggesting we move and she knows without me saying it, it's so I can install one...

Mines a Super hoist plus, it's got a top plate and no floor plate which is great because if you have a roller seat you can roll round with no floor plate getting in the way. Only downside is it's in a 2 car garage so on one side there's not a stack of room. So if you can convince the wife then go for a 3 car shed with the hoist in the middle, and go a bit longer with the length of the shed so there's plenty of room for the car to clear the roller door drum with the Prado raised and allow for a work bench down the front end.

Keep working on the wife, and hopefully you will succeed

You will get there mate, it just takes time. I'm extremely fortunate that i have a 2 post hoist in my shed so it makes doing these jobs so much easier (and safer), i'd be lost without it.

Low range I’m jealous, but watch this space, I’ll catch up eventually

Today i fitted up some new DBA T2 4x4 slotted rotors and Bendix heavy duty brake pads on all four corners, and changed out the brake fluid.



I've also got some Bilstein shocks and King springs which i will put in tomorrow time permitting.

Worst thing about them is when you switch them off, it feels like your regular headlights arent even on.

I found that out the hard way a few weeks ago on my old 90. Flicked the switch for the spotties off and everything went black. Not sure how long I've been driving around with both high beam filaments blown!

Went for a better drive with the 4wdsupercentre muffler delete and would have to advise against them. Way too noisy, when you open the throttle it sounds like a Mack truck and fuel consumption was up slightly but EGT down. Wifey definitely was not impressed either lol. But it only took 15min to bolt it and give it a try, i will weld in a high flow unit something between a delete and the standard muffler and see how it goes.

Thanks for the link mate, I just purchased these 1 x PIAA Hyper Arros H4 (Twin) with 25% off that’s incredible

No problems, depending on the globe but usually they are much cheaper then elsewhere or getting the globes in places like SuperCheap.

I've had a 4wdsupacentre 3" exhaust for the past 18 months and its been awesome, i noticed they had the muffler delete pipes in stock so i ordered one and fitted it today.

Fitted like a glove and was quick to install. First thoughts are it's loud, quite a bit louder than i was expecting. Going from the stock exhaust to the 3" the increase in sound wasnt huge it mostly just gave it a nicer deeper note, but the muffler delete is very noticeable so the jury is still out on this one dont know if i will keep it or switch back. Not sure if its improved fuel economy yet only went around the block.



Also the other day got a new windscreen fitted after cracking it in the snow. Done by Obrien from $400 fitted, they used an acoustic XYG screen. Guy done a great job, even managed to peel off my national parks pass off the old screen and and restick it like new along with dashcam and hands free mic. Screen quality is ok, theres some slight rippling if i look through it on a sharp angle but it's not noticeable when driving. Also cabin noise is about the same as the OEM screen.

Yep ain't that the truth, tried them out last night, bloody awesome, I'll have to upgrade the low beam now.
