A walk-around of my 2004 Land cruiser Prado 120 series, 4L V6.
Or the GX470 as its known in some other countries.
Setup for touring / overlanding / camping, I go through some of the mods and accessories fitted.
Check out my mates 120 Prado: • Modified Toyota LandCr...
Well done. Clean and tasteful, functional mods and still looks good. Loving it.
Such a great build, awesome work.
Awesome setup, very inspiring for my own Prado.
Nice build! Has given me more than a few ideas for my 120. Thanks for posting 👍
Mate such an excellent setup; you should be proud, what a rig! 👍🏼
Awesome build. thanks for all the great ideas for my 120 build!
Great set-up, clearly well thought out, and nicely executed
Amazing build - by far the cleanest and most practical
Such a nice looking setup. Beautiful paint colour too.
Excellent walkthrough, super tidy Land Cruiser. Thanks for the video!
This is amazing. I have a Prado 150 and you’ve literally nailed every single thing I want.... thank you sir 👍🏼
Just came across this video. Amazing and clean build. I like that you can switch it to daily driver duties in 20 mins. Keep up the good work!!
Well done. Very clean and simple mods to get you out for a weekend or do some touring! I have the same model running the v6 and couldn’t be more happier with it. Reliable and plenty of grunt !
love this! This is the dream set up!
Just came across this video, Clean and practical stuffs inside and out. Well done mate, definitely will get more follower 👏👏
Awesome setup mate. Got it setup perfectly for some awesome camping.
Amazing amazing, amazing!!!!! There's nothing that car can't do my man ... money well spent!!!🎉🎉 enjoy more family outings🎉
Wow. Super job. This is the way I would like to have mine. Great!
Very impressive set up. Practical and well thought out. You’ve given me a few ideas. Cheers.
Glad to hear, thanks
Nice Prado! Nice setup in the back! love it.
Awesome set up. Great Prado 120!
Best buildt Toyota 120 ever. All you have done are so organized: Tnx for sharing 👍🏼
Amazing build. I might copy all of the mods. Love how you put the air compressor in the boot.
This is one of the neatest, organised, practical and well thought out setups I’ve seen. Well done mate, great vid
indeed
Thanks for the vid mate. love the work you have done, i have the same car untouched and have gotten ideas from your setup.
Great setup my Prado 120 is the same you gave me some good ideas, as for the bull bar I used the Toyota one and had a Toyota cradle added, had fitted a Carbon 12000lb winch, thanks for the walk around
No worries, thanks mate
Really great job dude. U did the perfect lone wolf explorer car.
Having just bought a Prado with plans to get out and about this has been a fantastic video to kick me off, well done, great ideas from front to rear and everything in between 👍👍👍
No worries, glad it was helpful for you :)
Very clean and neat rig.. well done!
I know your vid is a few years old now but I’m going to spec my 120 out in a similar fashion. Thanks so much for sharing
Literally best build I’ve come across. I’m here in the states and really wanting to pull the trigger on a GX470 If I had the skill and patience I’d spec it out just like your rig. Thanks for the inspiration man!
I just bought a GX 470, it doesn't seem to hard to do most of it.
Excellent set up. You have thought it out well.
Incredible build!!!
Nice truck, very well thought out👍.
Just grabbed a 120, thanks for the video and inspiration, it won't be stock for long. :)
Thanks mate, good luck with your build :)
Fantastic setup and awesome preparations. Greetings from Kuwait.
Like your tab mate! Great work.
This is awesome I’m about to buy a prado and this is going to be a massive inspiration on my build
Slick setup! Great platform.
Awesome set up! Loved it 🤟
Well thought out mate. Well done.
@chapelle121 mate love your rig setup. Thanks for your generosity with answering everyone’s questions. I have a 2008 un-modded Prado D4D and want to go in this direction but was a bit stuck even knowing what’s possible. The way you engineered some of those solutions was inspiring. Thanks mate, subbed!
No worries, thanks mate!
Very inspiring built, thank you for the video.
its beautiful your car bro. congrat.
looks good mate, you have put a lot of work into it.
Beautiful truck you have there mate.
VERY WELL EXPLAINED AND SUPER TIDY,,THX FOR TAKING TIME IN MAKING THIS VID AS I JUST PURCHASED A PRADO 2007 AND WAS LOOKING FOR IDEAS ON HOW TOO,,I AM GOING TO BUILD A REPLICA OF YOUR SETUP,,,MUCH APPRECIATED,,MANY THX
No worries, good luck with the projects.
@@chappelle121 Chappelle can you plz tell me is your cargo barrier a full size one or have you fitted the half cargo barrier size
@@rt-ks2bh it was a full size cargo barrier, it was actually to suit a mitsubishi van I got it for free and just cut it and bolted the bottom to the top of the drawers. That way it left room for the water bladder between it and the seats.
@@chappelle121 Thx for your reply,,,appreciated and very well thought out,,cheers
Great set up mate
Beautiful rig hope to have mine like this one day
Tnx for showing mate🤘🏻
More vids to come? Keen to see this in action, great build.
Thanks mate - yeah probably I'll do an update video of some sort, I have added a lift kit and winch and a bash plate and some other small changes since this video. Just subscribe i suppose and you'll see when I end up making more.
Sounds good... Sub'ed :)
Great ideas! Got some inspiration for my gx470. Thx!
Awesome! glad it was helpful - thanks for your comment
Looks really good bro
awesome setup. wow.
Awesome set up
mate, one of the cleanest builds I've ever seen. Very nice work. If you haven't already add a rubber plug to your air compressor outlet on your bullbar so you don't get water in there.
Thanks mate - Yeah I ended up moving my compressor to inside the car in the boot so not so much dust gets into it and its cooler in there, I have an outlet at the back now rather than the front
What a truck! Brilliant 👍
this is such a cool video. gx 470 representing
So cool. Great work
Nice set up
sweet setup
Nicely organised 😍....👌
Espetacular seu carro! 👏👏👏
Cool! I also have a Prado 120. Will tune it in a similar way. Thank you!
Clever mod on the air compressor, might have to steal that idea.
Nice setup
What an awesome build! In the off chance that you see this 4 years later: Do you ever have issues with rain leaking in through the door seals where you have run wires from the roof and into the car?
Nope, never had any water come in there. I have since re-wired those and ran the wires just to look more tidy. I now have them come out of the left tail light and up to the roof there.
Very nice rig
awesome mate, neat set up and like how u deal with the compressor
Great car, love it.
Nice rig👍
nice set
Nice setup. All you still need is some seat covers
Nice Build
Love your prado
Well done!! I'll be using yours as a guide! ;0)
jealous, we need that tailgate here in the states.
GX470
Nice setup. Be great if you could list links to all of the gear for people to find
Very well done
Great setup. Do you have the build plans?
Thank you, sorry no specific plans to share, I just added modifications over time.
Hey mate, any chance you could give us an in-depth explanation of how you built that table on your rear door. i Understand its been a long time since, but dying to know cause it looks amazing. cheers!
This is a ripper rig mate! Any chance you’d be open to sharing your plans for how you built the shelf & divider? Just top notch work 👌🏻
Hi mate, thanks ! I don't have plans unfortunately, that one was all just off the cuff figuring it as I go. Basically just got a bit of wood for the divider and cut it in a shape that would work combined with the angle off the cargo barrier, couple hinges and carpet and its done! the shelf was the same deal, just got some wood and carpet and cut to fit in the space
That’s awesome! 😀
Good job
Absolutely love your prado! It's given me a few ideas for my own one too. What is the make and length of your roof rack by the way?
Thanks, Its from 4wd Supa Centre, its the 'Full Length Steel Roof Rack', 220cm long
Excellent!
Hey a bit late to the party, but nice set up! I just bought this exact model and wondering how your rear door handles the extra weight? I've only got the spare and standard tools on the inside panel and I feel the door is struggling with the weight!?
Absolutely beautiful mate - that has to be one of the nicest Prado’s, in fact 4x4’s, around ! Well done 👍 so nice. It’s not over the top with every piece of unnecessary stuff bolted on for the brag factor - it’s just simple, super clean and super practical ! Awesome mate 😉👍👍 and I don’t mean this in any derogatory way but I get the impression you may be a bit of a perfectionist 👌 if I’m not mistaken and it shows so keep it up mate, it’s bloody great work ! Let me guess - aircraft mechanic or engineer of some sort ?
Haha thanks mate, I would say I am a bit of a perfectionist, but not in an over the top sort of way. Not quite an engineer but I am an instrument technician.
chappelle121 well either way mate - well done, beautiful clean tidy tourer you’ve got there. 👍 just goes to show with a bit of thinking, some planning and not stupid big over the top brand name spending, you can have a really nice vehicle to get you out and about into the camp lifestyle #stresslesscampmore #4wheelinginnsw
Good looking 4runner errr padro
Great build! I don't even have a Prado but yours is pretty much what I dream of doing in the future. For the next videos please consider asking a friend about doing the camera work so you don't have to do everything with just one hand!
Wow, what an awesome setup! Very, very impressive. How did you mount the fire extinguisher - is the bracket drilled into the step by the rear seat? Great solution to get it out of the way. Love the removable divider and shelf idea too. Thank you
Hi mate, yes - 1 hole is drilled and just a nut on the back of the plastic, and then got 1 longer bolt of the same thread to go into the original threaded car body mounting hole.
Hi mate absolutely grouse set up How did you run the hose from the bladder to the outside of the car? Cheers
Hey mate, there is a rubber bung just under the carpet near the rear left tail light area (near the jack compartment) . If you look under the car you will see it. Drill a hole through and poke the hose through
also do you find that the dual battery in the front has a power drop by the time the power gets to the back to the fridge etc
Mate… that’s a setup to be very proud of ! 👌🏻 Maybe a dumb question but have you done something to make your kings air compressor stop when it pressures up ? I have one but I don’t think it stops like that at a high pressure. Maybe it does 🤷♂️
If its a kings thumper max dual compressor, it should have an inbuilt pressure switch, you don't have to do anything it just cuts out when it reaches a certain pressure, which if your trigger is closed and it's not leaking anywhere it should reach that pressure very quickly and just cut out until you open the trigger or whatever again which will turn it back on.
Looks really good. Can you please detail how did you make the gas bottle holder. Thanks
Its basically a heavy duty ratchet strap wrapped around the Tyre - I used a product from Bunnings called "Grunt E-track Fixing Plate" which has cut outs for a strap to fit though. so that is basically strapped that to the spare Tyre, then i bolted an oz trail holder to that plate with another little flat bar to make it more sturdy.
@@chappelle121 Thanks mate. Looks really practical
Awesome.
Amazing build mate, lots of inspiration for my own! Did you do all of the wiring for the 12V sockets in the boot yourself?
Thank you, yes I did.
Top vid. Well done. Great job on the prado. Im keen for some titan draws and wings for my 120. What size draws did you use and are their wing sets universal?? Subbed your channel also.
Hi Mate, the titan draws you can actually buy vehicle specific, mine is a set specifically for the Prado 120 series - then it has everything you need to fit and the wings suit properly.
Sir, the best build I have seen. Well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. If I may ask, what is the brand (or where to buy) of the camping lights on the roof rack?
My camping lights on the roof rack I got from ebay. For the ones on the side search for '6" flood light 12v' and the ones on the rear search for '7" flood light 12v' or something along those lines - you should see lots of suitable results.
chappelle121 thanks a lot! Cheers
@@chappelle121 are the switches an ebay job too?
@@2Calam Yep
Your build is awesome. Where did you get the black ratchet strap? Thanks very much!
Hey mate, got mine from 'total tools' in Joondalup
