It’s no secret that we think the Toyota Land Cruiser is up there with the best when it comes to the top vehicles for overlanding.
Yes, the legend of the Cruiser lives on, with the 76, 78, 79 and 80 Series models particularly popular. There is one model that we haven’t mentioned that’s well known and much loved for its prowess on the overland scene as Top Speed details:
“The 105 series is a unique model produced for a very specific reason and market. It is a car that offers unmatched reliability, durability, and capability. The most impressive fact is that it manages to combine all these traits with comfort – a feat few 4WDs manage to achieve. The U.S. might have never gotten this model, but it is now nearing 25 years of age; therefore, it can soon be imported.”
Building on the 105 Series Cruiser’s reputation for reliability and capability is easy with the following upgrades…
Koni Heavy Track Raid Dampers
As heavy duty, adjustable shock absorbers for on and off road use, our Koni Heavy Track Raid Dampers are the perfect addition to your Toyota Land Cruiser 1998-07. They’re a 105 Series upgrade that is just as at home in the urban jungle as in the African desert, making it ideal for the most avid adventurers.
Most shock absorbers are after all built for road use, with basic suspension components that are intended for little more than light off road use. There’s nothing basic about Koni dampers though, with this traditionally failure-prone part one of the most durable off-road shocks on the market. The result? A higher level of safety, more stability and better road-holding.
Terrain Tamer Suspension Kit
Finetune your setup further with a premium suspension upgrade. The Terrain Tamer Suspension Kit has been specifically developed for the 105 Series and is fully integrated to ensure a setup that suits your vehicle build and usage patterns.
As well as providing a complete and custom package for your Cruiser, there’s no extra charge for options such as heavy duty springs or firmer valved shock absorbers. This is all part of the Terrain Tamer commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, and is guaranteed to take your overland experience to the very next level.
Terrain Tamer Differential Rebuild Kit
Terrain Tamer’s Differential Rebuild Kit is another upgrade that’s well worth making to your Toyota Land Cruiser. This high quality kit provides everything you need for a complete rebuild, including all bearings, gaskets and seals, nuts, gear lever seats and bushes, boots, and washers. And it’ll save you a lot of effort, as well as guarantee the perfect fit first time.
Terrain Tamer Complete Engine Rebuild Kit
The Terrain Tamer Complete Engine Rebuild Kit has also been designed and manufactured to offer a single, complete rebuild solution. Each component has been carefully crafted using premium materials to ensure a long service life, optimum durability and the highest quality.
The custom kit includes engine gaskets, seals, main bearing set, camshaft bearing set, con rod bearing set, pistons, piston rings, head bolts and other parts to suit your model.
