Hi @Waqas Parvez, your mod looks super nice, I'm researching to do similar or replace the bumper for fibre one. Metal look nice but apparently one would need to pull it of every year to get trough inspection. Besides we do not have kangaroos here ... 

I have a 2021 Prado Adventure (with additional lips/spoiler below bumpers - even lower then without).

Would you mind sharing where did you get skid plate and bumper trim? My whatsapp is +971525086821. 

Thanks.

Hi @Waqas Parvez along with Asad even I am in the bumper, could you also share me with details please ? My whatsapp is +917547261486.

Congratulations @varunmehndiratta

HI @Taimur Khan best advice for the Prado gear selection :

Do not do anything. Prados are full tme 4x4. Just deflate and go and as @Frederic mentioned just use that switch only for recoveries. Also to get more power the trip tonic gears are enough. 

CONGRATS 👍🏻

Prado

Being one myself, I would recommend that in a instant. Fortuner may cost less but are not powerful enough. Modifications are way more easier and are very capable even when they are stock. models. If you are looking for buying second hand any model year is great !! Just be careful to buy the 4.0 lither V6 version as the other option (2.7ltr) is a bit under powered.

hi @Tbone

Please give up my spot to someone else. My rear brake pads are to thin to drive with.  

Crony MT777 .

Available in any store selling radio equipment in China market. Better than the Baofeng one.

@Anish S Thanks for asking but I made other plans. See you again on a next drive.

Hi @Tbone please continue the drive without me . I have to run to the office due to some emergency. Sorry for dropping out so late 

I have seen these things sold by XXXXX and was at a point very much ready to buy these but settled for a less expensive version of them. I only tried them once and were not accurate. But the stem removal tool is honestly the best tool I have and makes me feels that dont need to spend anymore than that.

I am sad that I could not make it 😔 The video Asif bhai posted is very nice.

Try ali express or ebay.com. Deliveries might take around 15 - 20 days. but you shall get a lot of ideas and options.

Hello @Frederic
 

Sorry for the last minute update but I have to dropout from this drive for some reason. Was looking forward this drive but unfortunately can’t attend it. 😔

Hi

 

Good video, as I have also been wondering a bit, when to use central diff lock and when not. 

I am typically driving without TRC and VSC systems, so they are off. Should I always use center diff lock on, when we are driving on sand ? Or is lock only switched on, when got stuck, etc ?

Share your comments, please...

 

I also do not use TRC while driving in the sand . As per my observation It’s just one of the features given in the car for a better and smoother drive. I myself have so many times not even bothered switching it on. I have also used the diff lock just for recoveries. Usually  I always drive on D, with the occasional use of the trip tonic to climb up.

Based on my experience below are a must for prado:

Skid plate front and back

Ensure skid plate its made of aluminum with 6 MM thickness. Aluminum is light weight so i found it to be best.

Offroad Tyre - Geolander ATS

2" Lift would do alot of wonders if you want to continue with your prado until Intermediate and above.

 

Thanks for the tip. I already have a 10mm aluminum bash plate installed. Main reason is the side clip which always tend to come out even when when a small bump occurs.

Hello there fellow Carnity members, hope you all are having a good day.

With my Prado's stock bumper having had enough of my off-roading adventures and has finally reached a point where it has to be replaced, I have to get myself a new off-road bumper. I have been looking at a lot off options and already concluded on a plate bumper. but however I am still not sure on what material do I make for. 

Should I go for a fiber glass one which shall be lighter and cheaper but will be damaged easily it gets a big hit or a steel bumper which will be able to absorb impacts much better but will much heavier on the car and cost more. 

Please help. 

Congratulations @Barry. 

Hello @Foxtrot Oscar. 
 

Sorry for the last minute drop out but. My car isn’t starting up.. seems like the battery is down, won’t be able to make it to the drive. Please continue the drive without me.
