@@fisherman6794 yeah I haven’t been able to find an Australian filter manufacturer yet. Please let me know if you know of any. My goal is to use Australian made where possible, Australian owned (manufactured overseas) is next best. For these old engines I don’t have a problem with Ryco but for the future V8 builds I doubt I will use them.

@@paulshennan2504 How cool mate, I’m glad you found the channel and cheers for the comment 👍

@@ratpinscher The part number is 87240-89115 “Valve”

Cheers for the tip mate, I actually thought that’s what the no spill funnel was supposed to do by having the coolant level sit higher than any hoses or possible trapped air pockets. When I get the car back I will give it another bleed with the top Heater hose off and see how it goes. I may actually do another full flush and fill yet, we’ll see. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

All good man just trying to help out.. also it's a non spill funnel not a bleeding funnel. You will always get air trapped at the highest point. 👍

@@craigivas4037 ok thanks mate, good to know. I didn’t realise they were two separate things. I will definitely try your method as soon as I get the car back l, thanks again 👍

@@wheelbarrow01 Yeah mate, the old one was so brittle it took ages but using a heat gun helped. The glad wrap is a great idea. I have nothing and was thinking the same thing about the dirt so I will pull it back off and cover it, thanks for the tip 👍 and yeah they look heaps better!

@@philby5810 That’s awesome mate and I may get in touch in the future. I have managed to find the connectors I have been chasing finally. Yotashop in the USA has them brand new so Im good for now. I will be pulling the 4YE down the track to do an engine conversion so just need to keep it running reliably at this point. I totally agree mate they are great little 4x4, I get a big smile every time I jump in it👍

@@DuncanMargetts Very true mate and I am 100% expecting the water pump to fail sooner rather than later, especially after feeling how much grit was in those hoses. I have ordered a new one as well as a Thermostat 👍

@@Shed-To-Beach Oh.. and don't be afraid to shove your garden hose into one of those heater core hoses and flush the heater core out with the garden hose.

@@DuncanMargetts haha😂 I did exactly that but it was off camera 👍 got a heap of nasty water out of there. I’ve taken all the inlet and outlet hoses off and shoved the hose up each of them so hopefully it’s reasonably flushed now. But will still definitely be replacing the water pump and thermostat. Just based on how rusty the heater tap was alone.

@@SRadford Yeah it’s not bad and I would much rather a closed door respray over a full tear down and colour change as far as cost and time goes. Maybe I’ll save the custom paint for the next build

@@fadecactus4656 Blue would be nice but I actually have a blue picked out for a future Xtra cab Hilux build. I don’t want 2 the same colour so no blue for this one 👍

@@gamerelfhighelf6459 Light grey? Like Nardo Grey? That would be cool. I actually think I have seen one on an American UA-cam channel painted a colour similar to Nardo grey and it did look pretty good 👍

@Shed-To-Beach yer good colour but paint it what make you happy mate 👍

@@gamerelfhighelf6459 Yeah for sure mate, I think it will be staying factory colour but ai might change up the decals, we’ll see. I’ll change my mind 6 times before it happens.

@@robcantwell1981 Thanks for the advice Rob, Mine is an Auto so the book says to use DEX 2 for the transfer case. From what I have been able to read it seems it’s due to the possibility of a seal leaking and the auto trans fluid mixing with the transfer case oil/fluid. I am going to make a call to an old Toyota mechanic to confirm but I think I will be using the same DEX 3 auto fluid for both the auto transmission and transfer case.

Iv always avoided penrite ok its Australian made so they recon but ive always avoided it it's expensive seems like Australian stuff is more expensive for Australians but they seem to sell it cheaper overseas , bit like our local beers it's cheaper to buy when your interstate 🤔

@@davidmilledge221 yeah apparently we even pay more for our own beef than other countries do to import it, crazy. But I don’t find Penrite that much more expensive than say Castrol or Valvoline. At least not where I shop. I do usually buy when on they come on special though 👍

@@wheelbarrow01 thanks mate, I plan to go through and clean every switch and contact etc. Like you said there is probably 36 years of dust and crap in all the nooks and crannies 👍

@@wheelbarrow01 thanks for the info mate. I have never seen them before until now.

@@TiaDakoda May or may not be actual facts….

@@SRadford Thanks mate, I came close to buying a 2nd.gen myself before this one popped up. The 2nd gen’s are great 👍

@@2874mattm haha yeah they were ok, just keeping the state ice coffee fued alive. And I’m pretty sure they all need to be consumed within sighting distance of a toilet 💩

@@MAC10JONES It is actually surprisingly comfortable to drive now the steering is fixed. Obviously not by new car standards but being IFS and With cruise control it was quite nice to drive. It would have happily sat on 110kph as well if it didn’t lose the overdrive gear. I was really pleasantly surprised 👍

You’ve obviously never owned one… I had an 84 model 4Runner with the leaf sprung front and it was quite comfy, slowed up a bit on steeper hills but got along ok at speed limits, a hell of a lot more comfy than my 1976 HJ45 Cruiser.

@@absinth64 yeah they are actually very comfortable. Once I sort the auto out, with cruise control this thing was a dream to drive. And the best part was being able to roll a sleeping bag out in the back when I needed a sleep. 👍

@@absinth64 youre obviously a Toyota person. That's all I need to know

@@MAC10JONES Not really, I’ve had 2 Nissan Patrols, a CJ5 Jeep, 2 Range Rovers and yes, a few Toyotas. My favorite was the Range Rover, hands down the best for power and comfort. Comparing vehicles like for like and same year of manufacture most of them are pretty much the same. The Hilux range although for many years underpowered were a big step up in comfort from Patrols, Landcruisers, Jeeps and (cough) Landrovers of the time.

@@johanbreedt307 haha, thanks for watching mate and sorry it took so long 👍

Thanks mate, yeah apart from the loss of overdrive it ran great. Should have it sorted and ready for rego inspection next vid 👍

@@TiaDakoda haha cheers mate! Preferably Australian owned and manufactured companies but I will consider all comers 😁🇦🇺

@@TiaDakoda Yeah I have faith haha, the old girl will make it. She’s running sweet after a bit of work on the brakes and steering 👍

@@stevescience7187 Thanks for the heads up mate. I definitely intend to do a full trans fluid drain and refill with some fresh stuff. Definitely looking forward to working in it. The trip is off to a shaky start but I think she is sorted now and Im confident she’ll get me back to Perth 👍

@@SRadford cheers mate, Im looking forward to getting stuck into it as well.

@@craigivas4037 cheers mate, I hope so

@@ThisOldYota Cheers for the comment mate, I reckon she’ll do it too 👍

@@darrensmith2261 Cheers mate, I do have diff oil so if it looks nasty I will change it for sure.

@@darrensmith2261 Thanks mate, yeah looking forward to it but dreading it at the sane time.

Thanks mate, appreciate you watching and leaving a comment. The tray is 1720mm wide by 2080mm long. Those are outside (overall) measurements. It’s hard to get the dimensions right, I feel this one is good proportions but it’s subjective too. Some people like really short bobbed trays etc 👍

@@Shed-To-Beach thanks mate. Might be someone very similar soon.

Thanks for watching mare and cheers for the comment. I would definitely lean towards a 5VZ as well but they are not easy to find with low km’s 👍

@@Shed-To-Beach true, low kay doners are pretty rare, the newer generation 1GR would be easier to find with low kays, but the price would be a fair bit higher. Looking forward to seeing what's next.

Cheers mate 👍 I can’t wait either.

Thanks mate 👍

Thanks mate, Appreciate you watching and leaving a comment 👍

Thanks mate, I appreciate the comment 👍

Thanks mate, appreciate the comment 👍

Thanks mate, this one will be up for sale very shortly 👍

Cheers mate, yeah the only problem is if the leaf was sagging the whole car would lower not just the cab, if you get my thinking. The Cab being lower in relation to the tray has me thinking worn body mounts. But only one way to find out hey. Thanks for watching and cheers for the comment 👍

Thanks heaps mate 👍

Thanks for the feedback mate. The captions were an experiment to see if it resulted in more/longer engagement. But I think you’re right. No real need for them. Gotta try these things though 👍

@@Shed-To-Beach Yeah fair cop. I watch lads from Appalachia regularly, rural strayan needs to be its own thing too. UA-cam AI will fix it if need be, lol .

Cheers mate, I was contemplating fabricating a rolling gantry but Im getting a bloke with a tractor and forks to move it instead 👍

@@Shed-To-Beach There was a solid gantry and 2 ton chain block on market place a couple of months ago in Rockingham but I couldn't justify the $600 he wanted for it. Ill build my own at some point in the future that can have rollers and be dissasembled.

Hey thanks for the comment mate, I really appreciate the feedback.

Thanks mate, appreciate the comment 👍

Thats cool mate, I bought it from a bloke in Geraldton. It’s a small world. 👍

@@Shed-To-Beach sent you a message through Instagram with a couple of pics of the ute

Thats awesome mate, I’m looking forward to making a few memories in it myself before ai move it on. Love keeping them alive. This one was already in pretty good shape though 👍

Handy to know, thanks mate 👍

Thanks mate, appreciate the comment 👍
