I really don't have any complaints with the standard gear ratio's
One moment i'm at a event offroading, and when i'm done i can hit the highway, and cruise at 135kmh with eas:clap:
works great for me.
The automatic transmission really works wel, and also offroad. Manual shift is so 2014:lol...
2years ago i bought this LC80 4.2 TD 12Valve
Always loved the 80 serie's and my wife likes it too.
It's here daily driver.
The car hasn't seen any mud because the car was very clean and the backdiff lock wasn't working.
the diff lock was totally corroded and i replaced it with a new one...
Tnx for your reply Dave!
I do appreciate all the information, and i'll base my choice on these opinions and experiences.
because i don't like to experiment and find out that i made the wrong choice( My wife would kill me:shhh:)
So if there are people with same or other experiences, i would...

For my LC80 i'm looking to buy some new tyres.
i would like a plus size tyre to fill up the wheel cases a bit more.
but wich size is still good to ride on the highway.
on the highway it's normal cruise around 135kmh(gps)
the car has no trouble doing this and i dont get any anouying vibration...
this also is a job that needs to be done on my LC.
But i find the rubbers very expansive, about 45€ per window.
but i'll bet they wil stay perfect for the next 15 years.

I believe it's a 2,5 inch system.

Hi there,
i've placed a new tweaked turbo on my '94 TD so i replaced the exhaust as well.
It's a Tecinox stainless steel exhaust (side exhaust)
The exhaust works well and i never get tired off the sound. It's sound great, and you can hear the turbo wissle when the engine is running idle...
