Recently purchased this Hilux from UK since I'm moving from DR Congo to Tanzania and needed a RHD vehicle. This said I'm also converting from a Pajero to Hilux.
2002 Hilux 2.5TD
4" Procomp lift w/ heavy duty rear springs fitted
32" BFG tires
Hannibal rack
Alu lining in truck bed
The fun should begin with adding battery management system (have a 50l ARB fridge), swing tire carrier in the back and some storage system in the load box.

Re: My first own Hilux
Very nice, Tom!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: My first own Hilux
One good looking truck. Which company did you use to export your truck out of the UK?
