    Got a 2016 Prado for wifey to compliment our series 80 in Costa Rica - want to add off-road driving lights

    Just picked up a nice 2016 Prado turbo diesel with 125k km. VX trim. We are not going to go nuts with mods and buildout on this as the Series 80 will be the adventure machine and the Prado will be the “luxury” car for airport runs, dinner dates, on road trips etc. We would like to fit a pair...

    PTO Winch shaft rattle - What is going on here? <Videos Fixed, thanks Bilt4me>

    So my rig is a HDJ80 with PTO winch. I recently had to use the winch when taking the "shortcut" from Volcano Arenal to Monteverde when my kids were visiting. There was a small landslide blocking the road but it had two ruts in it from another vehicle already having crossed it. I went for it...

    Quick question on HVAC mixer valve - which position is closed?

    I spent too much time searching and watching YouTube videos and I'm just not clear. My slider isn't working because the cable doesn't move at the valve when you actuate the sliders so I'm trying to manually put it in closed. I'm not sure if the cable pulls to close the mixer or if the cable...

    How far can I drive with rear axle seal leak

    My HDJ80 is in Costa Rica. I am in a remote area right now 5 hours drive (half offroad) to San Jose, my mechanic and Toyota parts. How far can I drive with this leak? What am I going to destroy if I drive while losing this oil? Is this the diff oil coming out?

    HDJ80 Exhaust Manifold Leak? - How to fix? How does this joint work? Ok to drive?

    So I have a '93 HDJ80 in Costa Rica. I was on a long journey over last 3 days way down in the Southern Pacific area (Zancudo, Pavones, etc.) Ran a bunch of back roads and trails. All unpaved and many with a rocky surface that jiggles the car endlessly. After I got back to pavement I noted a...

    Wanted  Series 80 non-airbag steering wheel, grey preferred

    Want to replace this with identical if possible. It is from '93 HDJ80 left hand drive. The reason I am replacing mine is because the plastic covering is no longer "stuck" to the metal rim inside. The plastic rotates a bit around the metal rim inside and it drives me crazy. I need one that is...

    Any suggestions to how to get instructions to a fabricator in Costa Rica for rear bumper and sliders?

    I was going to buy from one of the excellent vendors here and have shipped to Costa Rica but it is crazy expensive to ship and labor is very cheap there. My "guy" said he can have anything built - just tell him what I want. Short of just sending pics of some good products any suggestions for...

    Long shot but... Is anyone aware of any rear bumper options available in Costa Rica?

    Other than ARB. I have a good contact at ARB Costa Rica and they can get anything ARB but I'm not a fan of their rear bumper. My last trip down I got hung up in a river on bunch of big round boulder and ended up denting/scratching stock rear bumper so good excuse to get some more armor on...

    My rig is at my 2nd home in Costa Rica so I can't look/evaluate/plan very well but I think I want to bring new J.W. Speaker LED lights down next trip.

    the size of the base plate under the emblem? I want to get rid of mine next trip down to my house in Costa Rica. I was going to purchase a flat emblem with 3m tape to put over hole or get a custom emblem made (maybe come up with a Burro del Pantano logo?) to cover the hole. By the time I get...

    I want to get rid of it. Obviously the only right way is to patch and pain the entire hood. Any creative ideas for a work around. perhaps a flush badge of some kind? I'm going to try to bring a "TOYOTA" grill down next time too. Hopefully Southwest will let me carry it on. ARB bumper...
