      @harrywalker968 Місяць тому

      ???..80 series have gutless 6 cyl. 1940 engines.. only good thing about an 80. is solid diff..but they rip the mounts off the diff chassis, if you raise, twist more than factory.. ausie.. [ nissan gu better front diff, susp, being same as f100 4x4, thru eye bolt, not clamped.. nissan still have transmission brake, toyota deleted in in favour of yupi buyers..]

    • @alanmay7929
      @alanmay7929 Місяць тому +1

      the 4runner chassis is actually a very good one and with independant suspensions its going to be quite more comfortable to drive maybe not as offroad capable as the solid axles front and rear. the chasis was also developped to actually cope with the big heavy v8

    Greetings from south central BC, thanks for the video. As a semi-old guy who's been fooling with rigs for more than half a century and 4x4s for almost that long, the only concern I had watching you was that those nice muley mounts are going to be tough to clean in that metal work shop environment! Wonderful project too, super cool and rare. We'll be back!

    Petrol powered 79 Series ‘Cruisers are extremely rare here in Australasia, if not actually even unavailable. They are all 4.5l V8 diesels. Very popular and highly sought after even second hand. Great reputation for strength and reliability. Huge aftermarket for parts and modifications here.

    Nice job! You have excellent fab skills. First time I've watched one of your videos but the Toyota drew me. I have an '03 4Runner with V8 and I see your chassis has the XREAS suspension system, which you had to damage to lengthen the frame, but it's easily replaceable with any standard suspension, I replaced mine with Robinson IMS shocks with '07 FJ springs all around.

    I've seen a couple 79s here in the US, but I think they were imported under the sanction that they're basically here for building parts/demos. I know another guy has one here, but I'm not sure the details of his. A lot of the 79s here are being used to build technical trucks for the military. Sweet project dude!

    Parts are plentiful in Australia, but remember the right hand drive thing changes more than the firewall and dash. Eg. wipers
    Keep in mind, that pacific islands like Vanuatu and New Caledonia have the 76 (low roof wagon), 78 (single cab) and 79 (double cab) they are both left hand drive countries.

    Hi from northern Australia. guys around here will give their left nut for one of these trucks. interestingly most will throw out the factory rear axle and replace because its not as wide as the front axle.then after all the accessories added they end up very expensive.... but very capable units. recently the 4 cylinder automatic variety came out with 3.0 L hilux engine under the hood.

    There's a lot more 79 bodied Cruisers in the US than you think. I built one on a 62 frame and its currently in the LC museum. In fact, I probably brought the body you have into the US in 2010; 1 of 47. Fwiw, you have a left hand drive model so why would you get right hand drive parts out of Australia? You can get all the dash parts from Toyota in the US if you know the part numbers. It aint cheap but cheaper than going to Oz. Good luck with your project.
