LOVE IT! As an 80 owner, I love watching your buildout and trail videos. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing what you do with this beauty!

[@alabama2uz]

Congrats. I've always loved the 78s.

[@TexasSlinger]

Texas coast is getting popular. Definitely need to check it out. Water gets better as you get to Mexico boarder November is usually a good time

[@derrickmurphy9859]

Super truck .78s are a beautiful shape.because it's a bit smaller than the 80s it will go into tighter places..

[@luxembourgtbonbon8617]

It is a nice one , I liked it specifically the manual transmission Original one !..

[@kpkelsey6]

That’s a water to air set up. That “front mount” is the heat exchanger/ cooler.

Can't wait to see what you do with it!!!!!

[@howdybrown7322]

So cool! Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

[@peterjamieson2441]

It sounds really good

[@WheelingDiesel]

Looks like that didn't last long cant blame ya i ditched mine for a "proper" 77 series. Although for around town the 78 is a fun truck. .

[@scottpeterd]

The suspension has been seriously screwed up when it was raised. You can tell by the angle of the steering rod from the pitman arm to the left front wheel. Looks like the panhard rod wasnt relocated. Caster is most likely screwed up as well

[@jailbreakoverlander]

I know where that red barn is.

[@ozarkoverlandoutfitters9218]

Pretty neat place

[@FMF3]

Can install new motor … without big issue?

[@Viernes_Cigars]

I have a ‘94 KZJ78 and I love how those steel wheels with the hub caps look. How do you like them?

[@ozarkoverlandoutfitters9218]

I didn’t like them I took them off and put 70 series steel wheels on

[@Viernes_Cigars]

@@ozarkoverlandoutfitters9218 I just saw your other video where you took them off. I have a set of MT Classics II but I am going to look for those steelies. Glad I found your channel man! There’s not a lot JDM 70-series content on here

[@BaconRanch]

Hey man, great video.....just picked up a 1992 Prado EX right hand drive and I am in Canada....first timer...can you help me with finding the north american cross reference vehicle for engine amd suspemsion parts? Like, is there a comparable year and model of HiLux? or??? am i stuck with the more esspensive imprt parts?

[@ozarkoverlandoutfitters9218]

Suspension wise they are there own animal. Engine was never shared with anything in usa but was put in same year hilux in other countries. I’ve been buying most my oem parts from www.partsouq.com and cruiser outfitters. I carry suspension in Dobinsons brand that I’m running now on mine.

[@BaconRanch]

@@ozarkoverlandoutfitters9218 very cool, thank you. So you sell suspension? I will check it out....lift kits too? WQhat make is the 2446cc diesel engine? Thanks for replying!

[@brwils3378]

I’m very interested. I have a KZJ78 1995 with a 3L diesel and Manual trans. Already have a winch in the front and wondering where to mount a intercooler and what brand. Also what upgrade turbo was used?

[@GundamZro]

I want this but a 2 door!

[@babeparrish5621]

I've always wanted a turbo Land cruiser I love my 80 series but man I would sure love to get 20 miles a gallon How much would it realistically cost to get a Diesel cruiser?

[@brwils3378]

One of these with a 2.4 or 3.0 liter Turbo diesel in good condition and reasonable mileage in North America I presume is usually from 22,000 to 30,000 dollars depending on features and condition.

[@Aldan001]

It does not get anywhere close to 20 mpg. My 1kz-te Surf (2nd gen 4runnet) gets 11 liters/100km on the highway at stedy 60mph. City driving is 16-20l per 100/km

[@kenreisig7101]

What’s to become of Emma?

[@johndemers6324]

Is it the 3.0L turbo diesel What’s the tow capacity on this

[@ozarkoverlandoutfitters9218]

This one is a 91 so it’s the last version on the 2lte 2.4 turbo diesel. I do not know the tow capacity

[@cristiansandoval2532]

What turbo does it have?
