Any advice

Post by searsy989 »

Ok, i'm drawing up plans for my first 4WD and i'm thinking of getting a 4 door hilux (sceond hand of corse) with a budget of say at max $15,000. I would like to know...

1. Is there any particular model that I should get (if there is any).

2. What would be some good, simple mods (nothing major) for a hilux and who would be able to do them.

If there's also any useful advice you can give me, I would really appreciate it.
The machine is now alive...

for 15k you should be able to find a nice rig with mods.Have a good look around and one that the previous owner took pride in should stand out.Turbo diesel is the way to go and regular oil changes are important someone who takes pride in their rig will service it regularly.
