The water system to the back door is genius. I would suggest a simple ball valve at the end of a low point drain be added somewhere below the faucet head to reduce the drippy affect while driving. Or, add a duckbill valve in the line somewhere prior to the faucet.

@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen6 жыл бұрын
NIce vehicle. Not sure if the 120 suffers the same dangerous flaw as the 90 but anyone who has a 90 should regularly check the lower ball joints. We are seeing MANY 90 series losing their front wheel due to LBJ failure. It happened to us on the way home from Albany and it isn't a good experience.
@jamesrobert31146 жыл бұрын
Western Australia Now and Then the 120 ball joint is upside down and pushing the ball into the joint not like the 95 which pulls the ball from the joint. Only fit genuine ball joints on the 95 and you’ll have no issues, went to the cape in may in a standard 95 and no issues.
@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen6 жыл бұрын
@@jamesrobert3114 The LBJs in ours were original but there also seems to be an age related problem with them. There are so many of these vehicles losing their front wheels now it is very worrying. We try to warn owners to get them inspected if they haven't been done for a while. Sooner or later someone is going to get seriously injured or killed. Before we lost the wheel we even took the car to a mechanic complaining of an odd noise coming from the right front but they didn't pick up the problem and two weeks later the wheel came off.

1500km range... Hmmmm, I had a Prado without an RTT and it was impossible to get that range once the accessories went on (bull bar, tyres, roof rack). Other than that nice job all around and tidy. But be careful linking a Deep Cycle battery to your main for the purposes of augmenting the current during winching as deep cycle batteries are not designed for high current quick discharge due to the thinner internal lead plates.
