Africa 4x4 Overland: Our African road trip

Expedition Vehicle Preparation & Safaris in East & Southern Africa

This site contains lots of vehicle specific information on 4x4 preparation for overland expeditions in East African and Southern African environments. Currently I drive a modified UK spec Toyota 4Runner (also known as the Toyota Hilux Surf) with the 3 litre Turbo Diesel engine (1KZ-T / 1KZ-TE). A few bolt-on mods will turn this into a vehicle fit for any overland adventure! Most of the mods (and any problems I experienced or could have experienced) are descibed in the following pages. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to email me.

NGORONGORO, Tanzania: Traffic jam in the Crater. The road from Arusha to the NCA is pretty damned good - however as soon as you get into the NCA the roads fall apart. The crater is great but very expensive: 50USDpp plus a 200USD crater entry fee.

MALAWI: Bridge crossing. Note the solar panel on the roof for running the cooler and charging a camp light. IPF lights on the roof for night driving (not particularly recomended, night driving that is) and a full length roof rack perfect for a roof tent and all the assorted crap that my wife refused to leave home without!

NANYUKI, Kenya: Crossing the Equator going north at Nanyuki. The spare was off being repaired and since then I've bought another two: they usually live on the roofrack. Check the British and Zimbabwean number plates.

The corrugations shook loose the pins from two bow shackles (one fore and one aft), a retaining bolt on the hi-lift, broke the drop arm on the rear sway bar and caused my only flat tyre of the journey. Although you can't really see it, I've extended the front skid plate all the way from the bullbar back to the back end of the sump. Plus I've emoved both anti-sway bars - can't tell the difference myself!
