I have spent again a day in the North Yorkshire Moors, near Kirkbymoorside, to test the Amazon’s new installed ARB Locker with great success.

I have bought a pair of Light Force 240 Blitz Lights which have a long range of about 900 meters. The housing is made out of super strong polyamide and apparently indestructible. The lenses are made from hi-impact polycarbonate. With a 100 watt bulb the output is approx 730 000 candlepower. My first impression was [...]
ARB Air locker

The Landcruiser 100 series with IFS is only with a Rear differential locker equipped. Unfortunately Toyota has left the front locker away, which, as proven by the 80 series is often very handy. For most users it is sufficient to have only the rear locker. If you want to go that little further it is [...]

After I have finished the Bumper, the next on my list was to go for an electric Winch. I have researched quite a bit; looking for different models but could not make a decision which one I should go. Each one had its up and downs. As the Land cruiser is a very heavy vehicle, [...]

The next on my list was to fit a Snorkel to the Car. There is various versions on the market but I decide to go for the Safari Snorkel SS130HF. In my opinion it is very stylish build and fit the Car well. A large hole has to be cut in the right wing but [...]
How it started!

It began with a Isuzu Trooper 3.1 TD which I have purchased in 2005. I have used the Car to pull a Horse trailer and also to go on holidays in the UK and Europe. The Load space was great but it was slightly underpowered. I have made some modifications to the Car. Replaced the [...]
