>Now its in a scrap yard.
To be fair, that's where Trailblazers belong.
Is it worth shelling out for a diesel hilux as opposed to gas? I've wanted a SFA Hilux for a while because my brother's was great (before he put it up a tree and #rekt the front end) and I love the way they look but I could probably buy three or four volvos for the median price of a diesel hilux and ones with gas engines usually cost about half as much.

Just get an old square body dodge,chevy or you get twice the truck for a third of the price
here's my hunk that's too long to actually do anything serious. I wanna build a Montero

Diesel hilux is slower and less powerful than the petrol version.

Have fun rolling on that short wheelbase faggot
>>15241869
I wouldn't bother. You can, but in order to do so without becoming bogged involves doing more harm than good to what ever track you may be driving, and your vehicle. You'll find low speed maneuvers impossible unless you're simply driving on an unsealed road.

Or, instead of wasting money on the current 2WD Ranger that'll still remain inferior, sell it, buy a 4x4 and not have to worry about that crap.
>want 4x4 F-250 to carry a cabover camper off road
>all the 4x4 ones have already been lifted 10 feet off the ground and have the dieseldouche tax
There is no car community more cancerous than these fucking diesel bros.

Have fun with your breakover angle senpai
Just got back from a trip to Siberia, man Land Cruisers of every ilk EVERYWHERE.
LC80s are the most commonly lifted/modified ones, followed by LC105 (owing to solid front axle I suppose). LC100 are mostly left stock, same for LC200s. A ton of Prado 120/150s, likewise mostly stock family vehicles. Rarer were Prado 70s and Prado 90s, and the piece de resistance, a pretty new LC70.
Made me sad coming back to the states and my piddly '96 4Runner.

Your turning radius is going to be fucked with that spool man. Why not at least get a ratcheting locker instead? Also, you should already have 5.125 gears standard in your rear diff.

Funny. I've seen two of them for sale here recently for less than 1k. Unmolested work trucks. Of course they are work trucks so they are completely beat to shit with 250k+ miles.
