In this thrilling episode of Donut, we witness the transformation of a battle-scarred Toyota Land Cruiser into an off-road beast ready to conquer the treacherous Gauntlet. With over 200,000 miles under its belt, this rugged machine undergoes a meticulous overhaul to ensure it's primed for the ultimate test of endurance. The team dives headfirst into the heart of the Land Cruiser, the transfer case, addressing issues with the viscous coupler and opting for a clever part-time spool solution to enhance its four-wheel drive capabilities.

As the crew delves deeper into the Land Cruiser's mechanical innards, they tackle the rear axle with precision and finesse, upgrading shafts and gears to withstand the grueling challenges ahead. The addition of an ARB locker and meticulous gear adjustments showcase the team's dedication to maximizing performance and durability. The rear differential receives a thorough servicing, emphasizing the importance of maintenance and quality parts in ensuring peak off-road performance.

With a keen eye for detail and a touch of automotive finesse, Donut's crew navigates the complexities of the Land Cruiser's front axle, showcasing custom drive shafts and heavy-duty components that promise unmatched strength and reliability. The meticulous assembly of the front axle, complete with one-ton knuckles and advanced joint technology, sets the stage for the Land Cruiser's triumphant return to the road, poised to tackle any terrain with unwavering confidence. Through dedication, expertise, and a passion for all things automotive, Donut's team breathes new life into this iconic off-road legend, ready to face the Gauntlet and emerge victorious.
