what about MTS select and diff lockers (central and rear) ? you didn't use that. shifting from H4 to L4 isn't everything mate

Very straight fwd video, nice. Hv u got videos about when to use central locker and rear diff lock?

So
Low range button option is for tough terrain
Or off road

High range option button
Is for street paved driving

Am i right ?

The Landcruiser is so old fashioned. Select terrain response to the surface you are driving on and let the car do the rest. ( our just push a button and engage low range at speed up to 30 mph.

If you want to put back the car from low range to high range, do you need to put neutral again

I am still trying to locate 2H gear on my Prado. Where is it? He keeps on telling us driving the Prado. If anyone has an answer how to switch to 2H on the Prado, please let me know.

What is the device you used at 1:42 to deflate your tires? Thanks.

You havent show how to shift the gear to low range, rest of the video was good for information point of view

In Prado 150
When I am driving in sand dunes what would be the best settings?
4H with central difflock
Or
4H without central difflock

Someone please help me here. - I keep hearing the same phrase over and over and over, and it's driving me crazy. "When you go into 4-low, the truck slips into a lower range of gears". - This doesn't make sense to me. I'll use my truck for an example but the logic works on anything. I have an 8 speed transmission. If I'm in 4-high and driving along slowly, the truck will stay in 1st gear, it's lowest gear.... If I'm in 4-low and slowly driving along, the truck will stay in 1st gear, it's lowest gear... The diff's gearing can't change (at least I don't think it does...). So therefore nothing changes. They SHOULD logically be the same. - But it clearly isn't... I feel the truck do something when I put it into 4-low. The feel of the truck COMPLETELY changes. It drives differently. Everything - but I can not for the life of me understand why this is. I only have 8 gears to choose from right? What is changing?
