Antonio deCarmoducci I think the more thoughtful humans who view this channel enjoy seeing all walks of life and income levels enjoy the outdoors and their rigs. If you or someone else is feeling intimidated by another vehicle on the roadway you may need to re- align your perspective on life. As you know assholes can drive all sorts of vehicles. I would also caution anyone making assumptions about wealth vs the age of vehicle someone drives. The smartest ( and wealthiest) people I have met drive “ shitty old rigs” that are paid off, parked at homes they own, and use the rig until the end of its service life. Hopefully you won’t need one of these shitty old rigs to pull your ass out of a ditch someday 😉

I certainly don't come here to see rude classist comments. I appreciate the honest genuine good natured personality of Ronny and his guests.

GAJ I thought exactly the same thing! As he said, it's all about the driver. I've seen mates with 35s get in trouble because they think they are unstoppable. When you consider 2WD VW Kombi used to cross the Simpson once. A friend crossed the Simmo last year in his Mitsubishi Van

Couldn't agree more !

Check the VSB rules out, you'd need to get that engineered to be legal.

agree 100%

Why dose it say 3days ago but the video is put up 5 min ago??? (Am i the only one who sees it?)

Ronny do you ever come to the East Coast? My friend and I have very modified cars you have never featured; a 60 series Landcruiser and a Discovery 1. Please shoot me an email if you are ever this side of the country, we have some tracks you'd love too. maxf@engineer.com

Such a great interview. Ronny gives lecture to other interview hosts who talk all over their guests. Ronny asked the good questions and let the man talk. Great stuff. This interview proves, you don’t need all the latest gear, you just need the basics!

4wd action was good. till they started going to difficult tracks with a/ts and no lockers "oh mate so hard"

My JDM LJ78G Prado has coils in the rear.

No Doubt

Shovels just had a birthday, repaint and oil

No, not just an fj40.. get roothy on with his milo 2!!!

Would love too just need to find one

I have a FJZ105R, never heard of this issue or experienced it. Maybe the previous owner fixed it? I know of other issues like the left front axle seal failing and the recall on the cable holding the spare up underneath the vehicle.

SEE YAI AYE well there you go, my 98 GXL 1HZ manual had its front left axle seal fail soon after I bought it in 2005 with 92k kms on it. The first time I took it back to a Toyota dealer in late 2005 the service manager advised that they would be replacing the spare wheel cable with the updated chain assembly. Apparently there were 105 spare wheels strewn across the outback due to broken cables with the owners only realising their spare had fallen off 500 kms down the track. I'm finally going to fit out my 105 for overland touring and this video has given me all the inspiration and ideas (love those drifta drawers and camp kitchen) I need to get it done.

@@richardhunt6112 Blame the offset in the diff for that, while they did a lot of neat stuff in the 80-105 series it's bizarre they never really thought that the longer left hand front side axle would experience way more stress in the long run. Know of a few 80 series owners who have had the issue but damn, yours failing in under 100k is pretty unlucky. Had a few people help with mine, hate to think what the mechanic charged you.

i wanna build my dream 4.2 one day one day ;)

Rolly B 2million km? Or 200k

202000 km , my mistake

Rolly B ahh ok, was gonna say, 2mil from any type of vehicle is awesome

ineedabeerandaliedwn-- I’ve seen one episode where they were using Eaton Lockers.

He should do an episode on the Sick Puppy 4x4 guys' 45

Actually no, and I have never thought of that, not a bad idea. Will have to try it.

Mark Jennings Good... get it as far away as possible

Strapped down with a gas bottle ratchet strap from Rhino Rack, fit for purpose, it ain't going anywhere.

That's more like it, pleased to read I was wrong! :-)

I asked a few owners and they seemed keen but never got back to me. I’m too busy as is and only ask once. I’ll keep looking.

They're all stuck in the garage lol

Just clocked up 260,000kms
