This will be a great series to watch. I’m not a qualified mechanic but do as much of the work on my HDJ100 as I can. Looking forward to learning heaps from your misfortune 👍🏼 love the positive attitude mate
I'm sorry to say, but after watching the initial video when you upgraded your Fathers LC and the tune it was running, this was always going to be the outcome. The comments showed I wasn't the only one who thought so. It's all a learning experience. even if it is an expensive one. Anyway, good luck.
After watching your videos, I'm very grateful of many possible scenarios to take in my mind, for example mine it's an 181.000 km and very well keep engine, I've only considered basic upgrades "only", improve manifold exhaust and pipe, improve air filter and snorkel, and finally improve only intercooler , any recommendation will be keep in consideration... regards.
Big ends are the first thing u should check. No point ringing it's neck if it's gonna throw a rod. At 600 + thou thats a no brainer. Just like trying to boost a Hz beyond its limits. I've been down that road. :-(
Good luck with the final solution, looks like it needs a full transplant? I used jh Southcott in Adelaide for my 1hz p, they were perfect. The spalling of the lower end bearings would show up in the oil for sure, any signs of it when doing oil changes? Oil sampling is expensive but the preventive benefits are worth it
hard to tell from the video but the snapped rod almost looks like there is a bend in it? Would be interesting to see what it looks like with the rest of it stripped, not convinced worn bearings will cause this, in most cases worn bearings will spin before it throws a rod, possibly hydraulic locked from or dropped a valve would be my guess however stranger things have happened, keen to see the rest of this series
Geez it didn't last long At that power level I'd say they wernt expecting it to Seen the boys at the skid factory Do one a lil while back leak down and comp must of been ok But they whacked bearings in it And they were showing signs of wear at 400 odd k I think it was Just the rods were done Theyl prob get another 250 or more out of that one It was a modest build still a nice improvement You could near hear wills dad's ticking kaboom
Tuned in Bunbury? Not the first, they blew up a 1HD-FT new build with new everything including bearings in it on the dyno not long back. Drove there ok for the tune, after installation of the bench run & rebuilt motor. They red lined a brand new rebuilt motor on the dyno before even hooking up the dyno gauges being total f/whits, “warming it up”. 🙄 Put a rod through the block, just like this.
Is that bunbury Bunbury Fuel Injection & Turbo Charger Service because i had them fit a steinbauer only to find today that i already had a safari dp unit as well
@@WillsLandcruiser sweet Will, yea makes sense now👍🏼. Hope your ride still going strong. I made same mods to my 78 troopy based on your experience so hoping be good for long time 👊🏽
@@bradpope7913 all’s still going well mate! Must have done between 35 and 40 thousand k’s since I put the turbo on and no sign of trouble! I hope your troopy continues to run just as well as mine!
Hey mate, the FTE is a bit funny in that it doesn’t actually have glow plugs. There is a glow screen in the crossover pipe. It’s a squared section with a heat element inside it. Hope this helps 👍
If the engine failure was due to big end bearing failure, the broken conrod bearing area would have been flogged out along with the crank journal. Rods dont break until the big end bearing welds to the crank journal. You also would have heard the knocking for a few minutes before the rod let go.The broken rod bearing area and crank journal were in good condition therefore the failure was due to the conrod breaking mid-length. The bearing damage would have been a result of running the engine with low oil pressure following the breakage (oil pump cant maintain pressure with a missing rod). Id be keen to see if the head dopped a valve causing the rod breakage. If not, atleast we know the torque limit of 1hdfte rods.
Good insight, unfortunately with journal bearings the increases load / forces placed on the oil fluid film can be rather excessive especially when the clearances have increased over time. Having one of these engines myself they are one of the strongest around and non common rail 🥳 but parts do need to be replaced. Best of luck with the rebuild 👍
I can’t guarantee they’ll have an FTE there, but the guys at Just Wrecking Toyota’s are fantastic. So friendly and helpful. They’re very decent guys, know their stuff, and it’s like toyota heaven there. Your chances of finding an FTE anywhere are slim but give them a go!
@@Uberkreig yes that’s what I was working towards! But plans change and now I’ve got some time to think about if I still wanna go FTE or a different direction for my 105
Hi there is no way a big end bearing caused a rod to snap and go out the block maybe to many revs yes I think you should go back to the drawing board in 20 years off diesel mechanic I’ve never seen a big end do that sorry
Never seen a bearing cause a rod to break. Generally rods break from detonation or a rod bolt failure. The bearing damage you show would have been after the rod went through the block and it ran with shards of metal and no oil pressure. When bearings are done they spin in their housing giving that bearing knock noise. At least you have and excuse for a built engine now 🤫
Interested to follow the series. It's unfortunate that the old engine went. Nice to see that you where able to get a replacement. I'd rather avoid knowing what the replacement cost. I'm 4 days late, but happy new year.
Happy new year to you also Bradley!! Managed to get a decent bargain on the replacement. I’ll go into a bit of detail on that. But yes crazy to see the damage worn bearings can cause hey!
Really good attitude you have Will. As a 100 owner I'm hanging to see the engine build.
I appreciate you saying that, thank you! I’m really looking forward to this build too!

Nice aftermarket inspection window you installed there
Can never have too many inspection windows right??
Cool . As a 105 owner , I have gone from 1hz , to 1hz turbo and to now fte , I will be very interested in your series on the engine . Great vid
Wow what a cool video and build. Defiantly found the power limit for stock.
This really highlights the amount of energy engine parts are subject to.
Looking forward this series. I own LC 100 1hd-fte so very interested how your dad's LC 100 turns out.💪
Hmmm, that's a pretty decent window in the block.
All the best with the rebuild.
Great work Will, looking forward to watching the process
Woops bugga! BUT, good ol' cruiser still drove on to and off the trailer under its own power😍
Only Toyota!! Couldn’t believe she just climbed up there on 5 cylinders like that with craters in either side of the engine 😂
@@WillsLandcruiser that's why we own these awesome machines! I'll never buy a different flavour car again I think!

Sometimes you learn the hard way! It did cross our mind at one point but we dismissed it. We’ll have this imprinted in our minds for future builds now
Good on you mate. Watching with interest
HDJ105 owner.
hey will you got any parts from the old engine still ?
Great vid Will and certainly looking forward to the series! Keep em coming
Really good vid. Where did the front bumper come from?
Keeeeeen for the rebuild vids

Hey Will, have you removed the head from this engine yet? If so, did it drop a valve?
Cheers
Geez it didn't last long
At that power level
I'd say they wernt expecting it to
Seen the boys at the skid factory
Do one a lil while back leak down and comp must of been ok
But they whacked bearings in it
And they were showing signs of wear at 400 odd k I think it was
Just the rods were done
Theyl prob get another 250 or more out of that one
It was a modest build still a nice improvement

@@ianmoone2359 yep im never going back could have blown mine up too :(
See the video of it on the dyno it's just pouring smoke out
Bit confused mate, last I saw of this vehicle was the 1hz turbo with JB & intercooled Hpd & tuned. Have I missed something
This is his old man's 100 series, not Will's 105 series
Yeah as stated above. I know they look similar but I’ve done a couple videos in the past on dad’s 100 Series with the FTE

Hi Will, where are the glow plugs located on the FTE? I have one in my 79 and I am suspecting one of them is done.

What oil were you running in it
Wooohooo new content excellent
I’m equally as excited about this 😆😂
The amount of smoke coming from the exhaust it's no surprise it spat the dummy
Mate I saw you in robe few days ago I was in the white chopped 105
Cool to hear from you mate! You did well to spot me through all the people in that crazy town at the moment 😂

Good information, thank you Dean. I’ll take note of that
No worries mate. Thanks for the film, its a good learning opportunity.

Hey mate what wreckers did you score the fte I’m on SA aswell and been tryna find one

This was tuned professionally. Any comments from them?
Nah so it wasn’t the map or any of the upgrades at fault. It was our fault for not upgrading or replacing the big end bearings at the time
Just a heads up dunno if it's the same for fees but I know with the 1hdt you have to do you big ends every 100k
Ftes*
Looks like fun
Interesting, these engines can make 400hp all day, every day of the week on the factory bottom end. There must be something else going on.
That’s usually at the rear wheels I believe so on all 4 wheels this would have probably been making around that
Tune it they said it will be fun they said 😉
I thought this was your turbo 105 when I saw the title 😂 how's the jb turbo going? - very tempted myself
Haha thank god it’s not my bus! 😂 The JB turbo 1HZ is going strong. I’d highly recommend it 🤙
@@WillsLandcruiser was that spare fte meant to replace the 1hz eventually?

Would of been easier to work on if you unbolted the bonnet first instead of just before you left the engine out

ouch..
Only 230kw? I thought the fte were tough as nails. This is only td42 level power were they brake
Poor bloke was bound to let go though
Wow I wouldn't have have said that those HP and torque numbers were overkill at all 🤷♂️
