Gday everyone,
Very stoked to find a dedicated hilux forum. I own a 2000 5le dual cab hilux that I owned in Australia and have shipped to Papua New Guinea where I work.
It's fairly standard but well equipped with bulbar, driving lights etc. All done by the previous owner I must add! I have had no reason to change anything. Not used for any serious off-roading, but living in PNG I often encounter rough roads and heavy loads. The hilux is the ideal vehicle.

I have a gearbox issue at the moment which I will write a post about in the proper place.
Look forward to meet you all so to speak :)
Pete
