The Alu-Cab THOR Roof Conversion, designed for the Land Cruiser 76 series. The Thor Conversion is Alu-Cab’s latest 2-sleeper overland solution.
When it comes to overlanding, the Land Cruiser 76, is considered to be one of the best overlanding vehicles available. They are strong, capable are reliable, which are important points to consider when overlanding.
The THOR roof takes seconds to unlatch and open and can also be closed with your bedding in place. Solar panels and roof trays can be added to the roof, however be mindful of weight and placement of products as additional weight will make opening of your roof more difficult.
Universal bolt-in side boxes can be added as an accessory to your vehicle by simply replacing the back windows. The boxes can be added as an empty cupboard or the Thor Kitchen and Thor Recovery cupboard can be installed.
Overlanding has never been so easy, so convenient, and so unbelievably capable.

In the 70's and 80's I had an old Series 2 Landie which, inbetween breaking down, I used for Sodwana diving trips and to get to obscure spots on the Wild Coast. No sophisticated gear in those days. Left SA for Oz 25 years ago and I have had a number of four wheel drives and camping gear and I am continually amazed by how superior in terms of innovation the SA gear is.Alucab is streets ahead of what we can get here. Gets expensive bringing in your gear but I do have 4 of the ammo boxes!

The tent holds up excellently in the wind. Speaking out of a night of windy experience in the Thor (Jana). We’d always advise to park the vehicle with its nose it the wind so that the wind flows over the tent shell.

If you can do this to a 76, I’d love to see it on a JL Wrangler. Just replace the back half of the roll bar and create a full top replacement. This top could be like the defender 100 Top conversion. It would allow customers to switch back to OEM if need. I'd buy one instantly.

@BeowulfHagen
@BeowulfHagen 2 жыл бұрын
@@dallasvanwyk True the Ursa is a fantastic set up. However, there are several shortcoming for me, that I cannot live with. The Ursa, only has a small port to get up stairs, or allow stand up room....for one person. Ursa does not alter the roll bar, thus reducing the ability to have a larger panel, or more panels to get upstairs. They did do one top with better access to the bed area for Dan Grec, but that have said they will never do it again. Even though the Ursa is nice, I prefer the functionality of the Alu-Cab much more. The way the AC-Thor bed fold completely up increases the living area immensely. Not to mention that outside configurability that for me, surpasses Ursa's.

2003, we converted a 1996 Ford CF8000 commercial truck to our concept of an ExpeditionVehicle. We used Vulcum 116. . Nearly two decades full-time live-aboard, our Vulcum 116 remains soft and pliable. . Never use silicone sealer. It has zero-zero-zero stretch. On vehicles with shifting panels (hint -- all of them), silicone instantly shears, necessitating a second application, then inevitably, a fifteenth.

Nice!! Very nice!! I was waiting for the shorter platform roof conversions.

Luckily we might get the Ineos Grenadier here in 2023. Highly request you to please build something similar for the Grenadier. Also, quick question..what’s the net weight increase of this conversion without accounting for the awning, shower cube and all other add ons. Just the camper conversion..??

Awesome job guys and something I am genuinely considering for my own LC S76 wagon. The only thing holding me back is the commitment to cutting the roof off. There's no coming back. Or is there in your view? I.e; Assuming I'm considering selling the vehicle in the future - once my adventurous days ultimately come to an end - I'm conscious of the modification damaging the end sale price, given it would no longer be in its original state. It would be a major job welding a roof back on! What do you say to folk like me who are sitting on the fence? It would be easy if I chose never to sell the old girl. Hmm, maybe I just answered my own question! Lol Once again, awesome design guys. I love it.

01:30 In America, the 'A' pillar surrounds the windshield. The 'B' pillar is at the rear of the front door. The 'C' pillar surrounds the rear window. On a drop-windshield vehicle such as some Jeep models, the 'A' pillar is non-existent, but the 'B' pillar is still at the rear of the front door. . Did you get all that? . An aside: Some sedans eliminate the 'B' pillar for a stylish 'open' look and to facilitate rear-seat passenger access. Many convertibles eliminate both the 'B' and 'C' pillars... relying on the windshield to support the vehicle in a roll-over wreck (not my first choice).

Hi Brad, we have the Hercules Roof Conversion for the 78 series. We wanted to manufacture a roof conversion for the 76 too because it is a extremely capable and compact vehicle for overlanding.

...all that weight, up so high... That has to be over 200KG up on the roof. The quality is beautiful as usual from you guys, but the concept of this much roof height weight on an already tall vehicle seems unsafe to me.

Hi there, the conversion weighs 130kg and adds 270mm to the roof. It does not add much more height and weight than a rooftop tent would.

@@alu_cab that seems fine, because you are removing the old skin and structure, so there is surely 30 - 40kg that was removed, bringing you to about 90-100 overall weight added. That's pretty light for what you are offering. However, 2 full jerry cans, a high lift jack, shower cube, light bar, awning, and brackets for all those things. That's easily another 120kg. I don't want to discredit you guys, I love your stuff and attention to detail. But that is a lot of weight!

Hi Christoff, this is just an overview. Is there any specific aspects you would like us to focus on with more visuals? We’d gladly film short videos on them.

I get you’re trying to promote all your products but this is supposed to be a review of the Thor but there is so much crap attached to it that we can’t see how it interfaces with the roof.

Okay, I’m going to just come out and say it… I’m disappointed. I was really hoping this would be designed around 4-person (2 adults/2kids) camping in mind. The overall height doesn’t seem to be lower then the 78 conversion. Additionally I’m willing to bet the weight of the pop-top conversion is more then a quality rtt and pair of rhino cross bars. Really why do this type of build to a 76 vs a 78? To finish off, creativity and craftsmanship look amazing.

Could not agree more. These builds are getting out of hand. The weight upgrade needed for this would prevent it from tackling any really hard hill climbs or tracks. So it is an overlander, in which case you could easily tow a small trailer or camper of you liking. Great enginuity but better ways to spend 250k.

The weight is not much more than a normal rooftop tent would be. It adds 130kg to the vehicle. We would always recommend to have after market off-road suspension installed when converting your vehicle and adding additional weight.
