My 1989 LN130 Hilux Surf

Also getting a 2.5" exhaust fitted next week
 
Now that you have a snorkel, there is no excuse why you shouldn't have any shots of a truck fully submerdged up to it's windows... DO IT!!!
 
Well the mud hole I drove through in the last shot was up to just below the side mirror on the RHS, kinda dropped away just before the exit.

Deepest ive had it was just over the bonnet which prob wasn't really smart because the air intake used to be behind the left hand head light
 
nice...I love those old toyotas here is one from iceland:D
it was on sale this september...unfortunately its.....sold:(

Ive just seen something in that photo that intrested me.

The Panhard rod is paralell with the rear axle :)
 
Great choice on the tires. Loads of people run those around here and they work in pretty much every condition.
 
Great looking meats. Makes a world of difference, doesn't it. :D
 
Yep, sure does, even with open diffs
 
That's when the tires count the most... with a locker you can get away with a bit of balding.
 
Not to intrude on your thread, but I have those exact same tires on my Ranger. Love em! Don't get to 'wheel half as much as I'd like though...

Looking forward to more pictures of the tires being broken in!

You can get away with a lot of things with lockers, like the stupid lines that put a tire 5 feet in air :mrgreen:

Who said I need a locker for that? :p. Drawbacks of having IFS, lots of wheel lift.

pffft

A solid front axle doesn't always help. I've had enough rear wheel lift at times to almost soil myself. :p
 
Fun fact about your new tires WellsieTRD, they are the same type (Goodyear MT/R) that Jeremy Clarkson fitted his Land Rover Discovery with when he drove it up a Scottish mountain.
 
Must get that episode, havent actually seen that one
