Excellent video and love your honesty. I've learnt some lessons the hard way myself. These days i follow the rule that I'm too poor to buy cheap things.
Uploaded 19 seconds ago wow. I absolutely love the tub on the 70 series, wish we got that factory option in Australia. The sandy taupe is colour is beautiful as well. I'm new to this channel but sad to see the end of this ute.
I just bought a motion detector light made in China. I am certain that it's a numbers game that companies like General Electric play. Buy huge quantities cheap, sell for a high enough price to justify the ones that are returned and in the end there is still profit for all those involved. Likely I'll regret the purchase, but the other choices on the shelf were also made in China.
Returned to the UK in December from 11 months travelling and working in Oz. Gutted to find out we can't have the 70 series land cruisers here. Might have to emigrate 😂
@BarryJPR absolutely. I had an old v6 3.5l Pajero in Oz and there was no way I could run that in the UK. Currently dumping kerosene in my diesel! Hope all is well down under, I miss it every day!
Recently got my self a pair of cupholders for my 60, so simple I could make them my self but at the moment I cant be bothered, I have to Focus on what I need to finish this Resto first I think my top has been off before since the old girl is rusting at the spot welds and along the gutter which is a bit of a pain but glad I'm doing it cus if I left a bit longer it much worse now since it's cairns and it's always hot and humid during the day hahaha
Suggestion- check out Viair air systems! I've got a dual compressor and tank system in my rig and I LOVE it, absolutely blows the socks off the other guys dual ARB systems. I've got dual 450C compressors and a 2gallon tank.
Biggest regret mod i made on my 75 series troopy, was putting another set of extractors on when the old ones died from old age. Should of spent the bit extra and put a turbo on the old girl.
Do you know the thickness difference between the 2H and 12H-T clutch plate? If it is as you say then that is a cheap and easy "heavy duty, high horse power" clutch combo right there thay won't slip as easy when you tune the 12H-T 😃
Yeah im starting to get alot of people asking for them. Ill have to see if i can get a hold of a GU to test fit a prototype. Cool ill check them out, cheers mate
@@Buildin70s I’ve got ur cup holders in one of my 75s (my daily), and have just gone to the dark side and bought a 2006 gu coil cab. There are no decent cup holders available for a patrol with a bench seat. I’ll be ur first customer when u start doin em for pootrols. Love ur channel mate, good to see a normal bloke on UA-cam 👍. PS.... don’t worry I still have 2 1/5 75s and an 80👍
Loving the build, but just on the intro it would seem a little more streamlined if you left a tad more time for the music to fade out. Same could be said for the outro, let the video fade to black and the audio fade out over 3 or 4 seconds and you'll be golden :)
Yeah cool, i try to keep the videos short thats why its like that tbh didn't think anyone would really notice haha Next video ill give it some more time to transition. Cheers mate👍
Proper driving says that you're not supposed to hold the clutch in at the traffic light! Slip it into neutral and take your foot completely off the pedal. Don't they teach kids to drive properly, these days?
Mate please never buy Rubish from China I bought a battery Greec gun from eBay and its absolutely Rubish I wanted to save money buy not buying the Milwaukie but I regret it now .
It's called a bull bar. They are without a doubtthe most useful bit of kit than an Australian four wheel driver could ever invest in as they are designed to protect the front end of the car from animals when we are traveling at high speed on a rural road
Love the concise honesty. Top 5/10 videos are always filled with so much fluff. Love the presentation!

Not the end for the 75 just on the backburner for now!
easily one of the greatest 4x4 channels going around

That sucks, most of the time its worth spending more to do it right the first time but as long as we learn from it haha
Where Can i buy fender flares like that?

Nice work! Keep up the good job. Just found your channel so I have some catching up to do
Just stumbled across your channel mate, awesome content I subscribed. I’ll definitely be watching for a long time to come !
Probably a stupid question but how come they never made a wellside for the landy’s?
What about one of those cup holders to fit a GU Patrol? For the air compressor, check out Endless Air belt-driven compressor.
Yeah im starting to get alot of people asking for them. Ill have to see if i can get a hold of a GU to test fit a prototype.
Cool ill check them out, cheers mate
Yeah definitely, i just don't advertise them for other vehicles because i haven't tried it out on them

Love my cup holders they’re the best!!
Nice 👍 truck mate good job.
Was devastated to hear what happened to the 79, excited to see it all fixed up though!
Too noiser went i drive
Straight up the NPC1300 is lighter than a standard clutch and holds more than you will ever make, best clutch I’ve ever driven
Cheers, I'll have a look into them
My mate makes a stainless steel mount for under the 79 series passenger seat comes with the compressor and everything
Hi it jake can you make a one cup holders and phone holders a vdj 79 series left-hand side ?
For a left hand side vdj 79?
Buildin70s yes with a phone holders with the cup holders one can you do that ? For a 2010 vdj 79 series thanks
@@jakeriddleston6606 should be able to do that, can you message us on ebay? Thanks
A phone hold with the cup holders in one piece for the left hand side Bolts to the Seat rails ?
@@Buildin70s how do i message you
Is the 79 worth it over a 75?
I love the built not bought style
Thanks heaps the the Building 70’s mob for my cup holders keep up the good work 🤙🏼🚙⛰
Glad you like them! Cheers mate 👍

Do you have any problem with the weight ,do you exceed gvm???
Yeah maybe next time don't buy cheap things. Price always come with quality
I see you are selling your tub set up on gumtree
hey mate hayden here from childers qld you seem like a cool bloke keep it up
Whats the problem on noise when driving
Stop being negative and just be happy you get the 70 series where you live. I can’t even get that here in the United States.
I love 70s made a whole youtube channel about them haha
I never said anything negative about the 75? Just about the aftermarket mods
Jacklyn Junction
Far more room behind the seats in a 79 compared to a 75. Probably why your notice it now
Yeah definitely but still would have been nice to fit a few small things behind the seats in the 75
First View of your channel, I'll be back. Cheers
Like Kings is quality. Lol

Mate please never buy Rubish from China I bought a battery Greec gun from eBay and its absolutely Rubish I wanted to save money buy not buying the Milwaukie but I regret it now .
Kings awning and swags are just about their only good products, most of the rest is cheap rubbish.
Engine problem
Noise when drive
By NOT naming the "BRAND" you call crap, you not doing your viewers here a favour. Put a name to it,other ways they end up buying the same .
I would but It was a no name Chinese awning from eBay.
Just stay away from the real cheap stuff and go kings at the cheapest
Sorry kings awnings are crap as well gone through 3 now piss weak in the wind.
Comment parts
Number 1: gettin a old, decades old technology 70 series when you could of got a Ranger thats better for less $!
id take my patrol over a ranger anyday
@@ethan.p1159 Fuck that
old tech.. even a WWII Willy's MB still going to outlive rangers for more generations..
When you bought your ranger what did your husband think?
Ps I voted yes so happy you guys can get married now
@@lildickdaddy144 im gonna report you for homophobia you homophobic ranger hating prick
Number 1. Huge useless front bumper.
In Australia they're one of the most useful things especially in the outback, stops all the kangaroos from destroying the front of my ute
It's called a bull bar. They are without a doubtthe most useful bit of kit than an Australian four wheel driver could ever invest in as they are designed to protect the front end of the car from animals when we are traveling at high speed on a rural road
@@Buildin70s omg, poor kangaroo :)
@@Harro4870 I see. I had myself ony my Samurai a big heavy bullbar (here we call it "bumper") and I never hit anything so I put something lighter.
