1KZ engine - don’t push it when going uphill, slowly crawl and watch the temp meter, the key is to not get it overheated (install an external water temp gauge, that certainly helps) - maintenance with the cooling system is paramount. Enjoy the journey with the truck

Congratulation on the latest acquisition! This LC2 certainly got the best mommy on earth, TLC at best. "JUPITER" will be my suggested name, the largest Planet on our sweet own solar system. Jun's Jupiter.

As a Forester owner, I hate to see you retire your old Forester, but I give you a thumbs-up for this classic LC, great choice, and applaud you for your courage in chasing your dreams. Keep it up.

The 1kz engine is proven to be powerful and reliable, just make sure it doesn't get overheated. Make sure the cooling system is functioning well. Once the 1kz overheated it will start having endless cylinder head issues. The 1kz will run like a clock unless it get overheated. And don't forget it's a belt driven engine, if the last change history of the timing belt is unknown, better have it change before any long journey drive.

Wow, let the adventures begin!
Congratulations!
Your parents gave you the perfect name, Jun means Talented, handsome, ruler. The Parents that decide to name their new bundle of joy Jun can see that their future is bright with beauty and skills not to mention a spectacular gift to the world.
Your beautiful smile just lights up the day.

Nice Prado! I imported a 96 1hdft 80 series to Canada in 2019, updated the turbo, intercooler and exhaust. Made a huge difference. almost at 200K now.

I love your enthusiasm, looking forward to your adventures. We love our cruisers in Australia.

That is one beauty of a rig. You Tube recommended your channel and I am glad they did. I subbed and as a fellow Overland enthusiast I am looking forward to your build. My build out is done mostly with composite panels to keep the weight down. The company I work at rebuilds Aircraft and I was lucky enough to acquire some composite floor panel remnants and built my platform with a wood 2x2 frame and also a fold up "rear door" kitchen box. The box is 29x18 and I was able to mount it using one hand because it it so light for my door. Again thank you for your positivity and enjoy that sweet rig.

I predict she will eventually get more aggressive offroad tires for the big adventures. This is awesome.

[nasseral-momen]

Enjoy. I went for an LC troop carrier with a 1HDFT speciafically for the mechanical fuel pump. great vehicles. Stay safe and happy exploring

Congrats Jun, Looks like you are a step closer to your dream of overlanding like Eva. Good luck with your new baby.

[HansumRob]

that is cool what Leeson said about ur specifics.. Im a manual only driver.... love to choose my own gear..

[zubelerr]

Hello from Australia 🇦🇺, congratulations on your purchase! Keen to see this build🤩

[Ardaca]

I have had two manual Kzj78s (78 Prado like yours) and they are awesome vehicles. They are what made me to fall in love with the 70 series Cruisers. It looks like your truck has gone through some modifications previously. The 3 Liter came after 1993 along with the dash that is in your cruiser. Someone must have upgraded the dash, engine, mechanical pump, pto and all that.

[briantroxell]

That is a cool truck. I love it! And a manual transmission and a snorkel 💪 congratulations!

[AbdulsCycles]
