Prado 120 at Levuka 2024 - First camping trip since rebuild (WET)

First camping and offroad trip away from home since the new engine and drive line went in. Definitely learnt along the trip to use 2nd a lot more now the Prado is a 5spd vs the old 4spd and pushed it harder than I would have liked (aiming to reduce redline situations) but we managed to get home under our own steam with no breakages. Popped 2 x tyres off the bead after finding our stauno deflators were set closer to 15psi and not 18-20. Looking forward to more technical SLOW and controlled driving on the next few dry trips around SEQ and surrounds. A lot of winching left out of this video of short cuts...
The Prado is on ~3" lift and 33" muddies twin locked with high stall converter in the auto with all the extra fruit for touring/medium offroad work.

Cool video and looks like a weapon. Are you running an exhaust?

Cheers mate! Exhaust is fresh but starting to quiet down as it carbons up - Custom headers machined fit to block with 100 cell cats each side then 2.5" to sports muffler and 3" after that. No drone at highway speed and pretty quiet unless you are really into the throttle, considerable pick up in seat dyno for the 4.0 V6
