Hi John

Nice to hear from you...The other forum went very quiet and I hadn't really been bothered lately. Been focusing on renovations on my house. Now that they are mostly complete I have had a chance to tweak the Prado.

The old girl is going well...Just realised the other day we have had her 9 years going on ten.
She has morphed over the years from stock family wagon to competent club truck.
Threw a rear Factory electric locker at it a few years back, then swapped the diffs out (ring a pinion for the locker) to 4.88...And just recently threw on some 35's. Now its back to factory speed specs.
Had to do some front gaurd trimming but I think I have cut enought to stop it rubbing.
The old Warn Xd9000i finally burnt out and I grafted on a Come Up winch motor. Alot stronger pull now.
Also a few bar work tweaks.

What about yourself??

Regards
Calvin
