    Good review thanks. You may want to think about removing the small engine sump and clean your oil pickup mesh filter. Also VVTi filter screens. One each side of the engine. Easily accessible crom the front. Fourby4Diesel on youtube has made these suggestions on his channel. Very helpful hints from you both..

      Thanks Michael 🤙🏼 funny you mention that! I actually made a video of the process. The video never made it to TH-cam due to filming issues and I wasn’t about to pull it apart again. Your spot on with this suggestion as I’m sure most FJ and V6 Prado’s have never had the VVTi filters changed, the Toyota dealership told me they had never sold a set! Obviously it’s something they don’t do either.

    @CACressida 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I had steering slop in my FJ. I replaced my lower control arm bushings with Whiteline bushings, new tie rods and that literally was a night and day difference. Most of the abuse on my FJ is from high speed desert driving, surprise jumps and hard landings. I notice the idlers tend to make noises after a deep water crossing so I keep spares. My FJ is an old 2007 but it still takes a beating. Overall, great trucks as long as you don't need more space.

    • @OutbackTouring
      @OutbackTouring 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So true, yes I think replacing the steering rack was unnecessary, good call on the lower control arm bushes. I forgot to mention that in the vid. I replaced the whole arm with a Pedders arm that has new bushes and lower ball joint. 🤙🏼

    Nice to hear that you are more satisfied with the BP-51 coilovers. I bought my FJ with +/- 200k km. It is a 2012 model year manual transmission, the first owner (German fellow) imported it brand new from the US, used it for about 7 years then decided to sell it. So I jumped on the deal. Never regretted it since. It was still running on the original suspension, but the inspection showed that the rear ones were almost finished off and the front ones were also getting close to their end. I was thinking about several options Icon, Pedders, Dobinson ... but at the end I decided to go for the OME BP-51, and I did it all around, in the rear with the middle strength springs. I am also very pleased with them. No issues so far. I did quite a few mods on it. ARB front air locker, ARB compressor, ARB breather kit, Nitro re-gearing to 4.56 as I installed 295 / 70 R 17 Cooper STT Pro mud tyres, custom made steel bumpers front and rear, custom made skid plates, Nilight off road led lights, and quite a few small items. There are still some other stuff that \I am planning for. But I am really happy with the car and how it behaves on our Transylvanian dirt roads up in thehills and mountains.

    I have a lock up kit fitted to my 200 series, and I must say that I have mixed feelings about its usefulness. Firstly I modified it to only operate in manual mode and only in 6th and 5th gear to try and hold the transmission in gear longer when going up a small hill for instance, as you only have to breathe on the throttle and it wants to change down. It works reasonably well in that regard, but when it comes out of lockup back to 4th say, it can be a bit harsh if you have your foot on it. Other than that , it does not give me any better fuel economy, and it find it only useful when towing on reasonably flat terrain. I only use it occasionally.

    • @OutbackTouring

      @geoffredmond730 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@OutbackTouring Thanks for your reply to my comment. Too be fair the kit I had fitted was pretty basic, lockup was either off or on controlled by a switch, and you had to remember to turn it off when coming to a stop, as it would stall the engine, until I modified it as I said before. However I agree with you, today’s version,fully automatic would probably work a lot better.

    • @OutbackTouring

    Looks good mate, have u noticed any difference in freezer temp or power consumption since doing this mod? Another guy actually added another temp controller to his fan mod for a more precise fridge compartment temp control. TFS. Cheers

      Hay mate, no difference in freezer temperature, maybe gets cooler quicker, very slight increase in power consumption due to the fan itself but the compressor doesn’t run as much so the net result is less power consumption overall. I don’t think the temperature control is an issue, the fan definitely results in the controller set hotter probably because the fridge doesn’t have to work as hard to maintain temperature.
