Hi. I recently put in a 2" lift kit on my Prado. The front is now 1" higher than the rear. The mechanic said it would take some time for the suspension to settle cos he changed the front rubber mounts since they were worn (he didnt change the rear rubber mounts). Did you have any issues with your Prado not being level after the lift kit installation?
@k44_4wd Жыл бұрын
Hi Stephen, no when I did the lift it looked perfectly level, just as it did before just 2’ higher 🙂 - I think it’s better that your rear rubber mounts get changed also now

Greatings from South Africa Please o bear in mind that Europeans and the Brits made Countries like South Africa. We are definitely not all dark skinned and live in clay huts 😂. Now that it is run by Africans it is a mess, lets leave that for now. We have a similar sized 4x4 community as Australia. Because of the extreme environment, we need good gear. The equipment produced here are of the highest standards. To do overlanding , especially in more remote parts of africa, you should not go without quality equipment. Therefore the demand for excellent products remains high. We export all over the world. Even Aus which is arguably the largest producer of aftermarket 4x4 and camping accessories in the world. Back to the seatcovers. I had my Escape gear covers on my Hi Lux for 13 years. It faded a bit from machine washing, but never tore apart. The reason for the replacement was that the driver seat bolster wore through a bit. You can also look at suppliers like 1 Takla 2 Caprivi 3 Beesdam Shipping should be better now after Covid. I am not a vendor. Just a enthusiasts like you Regards Riaan D Mūller

Hi Paul, I didnt go crazy with “the build” or rather the project turned out to be a much quicker one then anticipated, reason being I had been after a 80 series for several years so it would not have made financial sense to equip this, also due to the pandemic’s restrictions I was still uneasy to go overland which as a result placed less need for a roofrack etc. Feel free to like my FB blog facebook.com/Kilin4x4/

@@k44_4wd Well I’m not new to off-roading having Land Rovers & Range Rovers for over 15 yrs but overlanding is a new adventure for me, I plan to start exploring the U.K. first. I looked at all manner of vehicles & Landcruiser is the one that kept on coming back to me as the best but fuel consumption is a big part for me. I bought this J95 but initially didn’t like the ride so I looked at the 80 series & nearly bought a V8 100 series on LPG a couple days ago but the seller messed me around then yesterday I found out that Shell have pulled out of supplying LPG pumps to the U.K. market so now I’m going to stick with the J95 I’ve bought but need to improve the ride & comfort of the whole thing.
