Arctic Truck Unveils Modified Toyota Land Cruiser 250
Arctic trucks have taken its packaging from its land cruiser 250/prado AT37 construction and are underrated. After all, these days we’re often overwhelmed by off-road mods, which range from the “angry eyes” jeep grille to the bumper that looks like it belongs to an armored military vehicle.
Even land cruisers can get stuck sometimes.
If you are familiar with AT, it’s no surprise. Founded in 1990, the company is Toyota’s special vehicle division, but now operates independently. From the beginning, it has been focusing on unquestionable off-road modifications rather than catering to shopping mall crawlers who want more flashes than material.

This build will be totally boring for anyone who wants to impress while queuing up at Starbucks. But for those who want a vehicle that is very good at off-road vehicles, especially in incredibly remote and rough areas of the world, this model may be a ticket.
There are many subtle mods on the rig. Your eyes don’t play the trick on you, and the Land Cruiser has wider tracks and fenders. The frame, body and drivetrain are all modified to increase ground clearance while keeping the center of gravity low.
Also included is a custom two-way adjustable suspension system designed by Arctic trucks, whose “Win Dhaka Expert” provides input. Wheel travel is improved and the suspension provides a modest 1.5-inch lift, so nothing is too crazy. But the construction sounds sturdy, which is most important on the trail.

Buyers can choose between 37-inch Bfgoodrich all-terrain T/A K03 or Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tires. You’ll notice that the look on legacy wheels is a back-to-back to a simpler era, which is great with the Land Cruiser’s retro-style look.
Finally, at the highlight, the 2-inch multi-function receiver hitchhiker adventurer can be used for traction, recovery or any number of accessories while entering the outdoors.
According to Arctic Trucks, the AT37 not only can withstand all kinds of off-road conditions from rock to snow, but should be handled well in daily outbound driving. Although some people have the ability to have a weekend toy, many amateurs today have to take on the double responsibility of commuting vehicles.
