I love this truck. The sooner you do the adjustments and deliver to nibbo's, the better.

:mrgreen:

What wheelbase are you looking to push it out to juz?

Cheers Jerry! :mrgreen:

Id like MWB length there nibby, just bought a house though so it may get delayed a wee bit. :roll:

I havent looked into it too much yet but if a MWB driveshaft fits Id like to just move the mounts and everything back to suit. The extra 28cm would be good I reckon, tank can be easily lifted out of the way.

Few weeks ago I replaced the LSPV with a Willwood brake proportioning valve, seems the truck passed wofs and cert(twice) with next to no rear brakes. All sorted now, a bit of a concoction of fittings but works.

Where did you get it & what was the part no.?

nothing wrong at all , just i am a Nissan blood , and part traded ish for my GU rb25neo det , missing the bhp had thou with my gu as i have 480 bhp to play with, plus i all ready have a well set up safari aswell, so one has to go,
but omg i do like a lot of things about this truck, shit did i really say that lol
but i reckon the rear axle needs moving back, and better flex , so if i keep i will be a visit to tom as i knw bugger all about mods for a prado , and i cant be botherd modded another truck so i guess tom will get it after he sorts nige out
