I am looking to replace the fuse cover, part number 82622-28010, which is apparently out of production. Does anyone know if there is an updated part number? Even the local JDM servicing place is lost. Link to the page with the part I am looking for - https://www.amayama.com/en/part/toyota/8262228010 Thank you in advance.

Faulty thermostat?

This MIGHT help. It's Russian but you can just watch him disassemble everything.

Rojie, You are truly a wealth of useful information and thank you for your insight. And upon learning that it's a limousine, I'm not even upset! Now that I re-read my post I realize that I wasn't as clear as I could have been. I am not interested in true off-roading but, instead, I'm interested in driving it on "good dirt tracks" like you describe. The outcome I'm looking for is that, because I live around the mountains and enjoy camping, I would prefer that this is able to go off road without breaking the trim. I see this crazy Russian modification posted above and, while it's certainly pretty kick-ass, I wouldn't have anywhere to park that thing. There is a video I found on Youtube that reflects something a little more modest (attached), and better aligned with what I have in mind (an AH20 I believe, but nonetheless gives an idea of what I'm aiming for).

In the future I'd like to modify my van to go off-road / overlanding. There were slim pickings at the time, and I chose a model with a body kit which I think will interfere with larger tires and overall ground clearance. There are very few resources on this project so I am curious if anyone can enlighten me on the removal of the kit; what to expect once they are removed; and tips on lift kits, required suspension alterations that come with it, and rim/tire options for such a project. Even off road bumper options. Or, maybe removing the kit is not even necessary to lift and put larger tires etc on? Thank you!

Thank you for the welcoming, Rojie. Yes, undercoating/sealing is on the list of priorities.

Picked this up on Saturday. 2003 Alphard G. 73,000 KM V6 AWD I love this van.
