    I had a RAW suspension put on my 2022 Fortuner, which gave me about a 50mm lift. I have been very happy with the result. I also tow, and would be interested to know if you get any sag when you hook up your camper before you use your airbags. I get about a 15mm sag which they say is normal. My camper only ways about 960kg

    • @AndrewSenior
      @AndrewSenior 10 місяців тому

      I definitely notice a sag having towed since these upgrades, but not nearly as pronounced as with the stock suspension. I’ve got the “comfort” springs at the rear and the “medium” springs at the front (for the bumper and winch weight). I’ll inflate the air helpers more when the vehicle is loaded and I’m towing to level it out.

    I first visited Africa in May 1998. Later that month I was hitch-hiking back from Kariba to my friends' farm near Banket. When who should pull up and offer me a lift but renound Zim guide Steve Pope. Steve was heading to Chitake camp for a lion walking safari and rather easily convinced me to join him and the small group he was picking up from a canoe safari. We didn't see lions on this trip, but needless to say, the experience was one I'll treasure forever. I've since heard of Steve's passing and treasure many moments I spent with this incredible soul of Africa. In particular, two "mock" elephant charges, where a large male elephant appeared, quiet as a mouse, out of nowhere. In the mayhem that followed (thinking that Steve was about to die and that I was going to run) I took two "shots" on my trusty FM2. It was pretty hairy as the big guy meant business, trumpeting loudly as the dust rose up and over Steve's head. Steve had even unslung his .458 magnum before we made a safe retreat. On this occasion, discretion was definitely the better part of valour. Mana Pools and Chitake in particular, will always hold special memories for me. RIP Steve. Thanks for keeping us safe 🙏

      You can “rough” it like we did if you’re ok with self-drive, camping and being self-sufficient, or you could do a 5-star guided experience with one of the many great options there. There are also mobile operators which can give you an in-between kind of experience where you stay in a tent but with other luxuries :) You can self-drive yourself there or even fly in as part of an experience. Many options!

    We've got horrible no-see-ums here in Central Texas, too. "OFF" mosquito repellent seems to work on them, however. I would love to visit that area, but don't think I could deal with not having access to showers. A luxury lodge with a swimming pool and access to air conditioning and showers sounds much better than camping. That's just me....

      Hey Johan, the heli-flip is one of the best ways to experience the delta. I would absolutely recommend a 1hr flight from Khwai over the flight from Maun - I’ve done both. You need to see in advance if they would have an aircraft in the area to accommodate that and pre-arrange the meet-up time and location if doing it from Khwai.
