Just passed Broken Spoke Overland on 65 South. Is he not an Overland Bound Member? They are in Nolensville apparently. I looked but didn't see them on here anywhere.
Hah yea it is! It is my second so I'm running out of room for car seats! I was actually considering building some storage drawers in the back seat between the two car seats. Storage and separation. Win win!

Just ordered Bilstein 5100 Adjustable Ride Height Front and Rear Shocks and Front Strut Mount Kits. I just need to order the Toytec/Eibach 620lb Springs and Toytec "Superflex" Rear Coils then we'll be about ready to lift this rig. These front springs are a tad heavier but the Prado's oem front...
I've certainly gotten alot of ideas from that corner of the globe including the Prado itself. The problem being that some Prado parts aren't direct bolt ons. This leads me to still have many things up in the air such as my front bumper. I initially wanted a Prado ARB but it's not a direct fit...

I retorqued all the factory side rail bolts and fitted a Yakima roof rack I had from previous vehicle. I don't mind drilling holes in this rack so it will likely be the base for my awning and tent until a full length type rack can be afforded later.

Thanks! The goal isn't to go real huge with lift and tires but instead spend money on conveniences along with front and rear locker making it triple locked. It should be a traction tank with triple lock and/or atracs.

Hello all!
This will not be a "everything at once" build so this page may be updated slowly but I figured this was a good place even for myself to track complete jobs. I look forward to sharing with everyone the build that I am having so much fun with.
The main purpose of this build will me to...
