Get the temp sensor checked, they crap out and will continue to glow for too long and burn out in no time.

Re: Nissan Safari vs Landcruiser 80

had a llwb saf low roof. massive rust issue in the roof. look for that +t would be a great thing if you want to tow. now have an 80 find it a lot smoother on and off road but for a real hard thrashed truck i would go back to a saf. my old one got an absolute beating but always got me home
