Tis’ the season for some serious off-road adventure, which makes getting your vehicle primed and ready for anything a top priority. Thankfully, Toyota Land Cruiser owners already have the perfect foundation for a build with some serious potential! We’ll let Toyota UK Magazine explain more about why the Cruiser is a superstar off the beaten track:
“With an off-road heritage spanning more than 65 years, the Toyota Land Cruiser has earned itself a rock-solid reputation as one of the toughest, most capable and reliable vehicles ever made. What makes the latest model so effective off-road? The answer lies in combination of body-on-frame construction and all-terrain support systems…”
It should therefore come as no surprise that this Toyota model has been at the centre of many top Land Cruiser overland builds. For those looking to refine their own Cruiser setup, the following 200 Series upgrades should be on your hitlist.
Wake up your 200 Series Cruiser
Performance matters, especially when travelling off-road. Before you go ahead with the expensive and extensive upgrades, you might want to give this neat little gadget a try.
The small but mighty evcX Bluetooth Throttle Controller provides the boost you need to shake things up performance-wise. Adjust your throttle response at the touch of a button and realise a long list of rewards, including better throttle control, reduced throttle lag, enhanced acceleration, improved overall driving experience, impressive fuel savings, and extra security.
There are eight driving modes to choose from and 32 levels of adjustment, each of which can be used to finetune your setup to perfection. You can find out more about what it’s like to drive with a throttle controller here.
Protect your pride and joy
Those off-road trails can be brutal places, with the tough conditions that are so thrilling to negotiate taking their toll on your Land Cruiser 2007-21. Give the underside of your 200 Series the defence it needs with our ARB Underbody Protection Kit.
The premium skid plate is crafted using 3mm pressed steel, and is compatible with factory and ARB bumpers. The result? Vital protection for one of the most vulnerable parts of your Cruiser when you need it most.
Prepare for the worst
Our upgrades don’t just make your off-road experience the best it can be. They also help you to prepare for the worst, including if your vehicle becomes stuck or stranded. Whether you’re travelling solo or off-roading as a group, quick and simple extraction will get you back on the trail again and keep the good times rolling.
Our Saber 12K Heavy Duty Kinetic Winching Recovery Kit is a must-have for Land Cruiser owners. As a brand known for its professional recovery gear, Saber offers the crème de la crème of self-rescue equipment. This kit is no exception, and features an industry-leading kinetic recovery rope rated at 12,500kg and two fully bound 20,000kg heavy duty soft shackles to get you out of the stickiest of situations.
Complete your recovery setup
A recovery rope is only as good as its recovery point, so be sure to team the previously recommended Saber kit with our vehicle-specific ARB Front Recovery Point. It’s made for safer towing and rescue, fully tested, and rated for use with a 4.75t rated bow shackle and 8,000kg snatch strap.
Fit suspension that’s up to the challenge
OE suspension may do the job but it’s certainly not made for serious adventure. For a premium solution for on and off road use that prevents the suspension mishaps that can hold you back upgrade with our Old Man Emu OME Nitrocharger Plus Suspension Lift Kit. It’s one of the most important upgrades you’ll make to your Toyota Land Cruiser 2007-21.
