How refreshing to find a video of a young girl who knows what she's talking about when it comes to her truck. I'm an old bloke who's been around the traps a few times and I get a bit over all the overly blokey type 4x4 videos where the boys just try to be better than everyone else. I like the fact that you have an older vehicle and understand not only how it works, but also what it takes to make it do what you want it to do. Thank you for sharing.
I thought the Utes were the Car derived pickup's single cab car front end. But I suppose as it is a utility vehicle it does cover all pickups, here in the UK we don't get the nice stuff and big V8's but I do run a Chevy LUV crewcab basically a Isuzu Rdeo 3.0L automatic chipped and much abused but mostly stock it goes anywhere I take it.@Dave D
I’ve bought a 75 series for my daughter, came searching for mods to do it and found your channel.. now I will say, you’re a tremendous young lady and I hope my daughter turns out similar to you. Your dad must be proud asfuck!
Love the old school rig😊 I once had a 68 ford 2500 4x4 standard cab with a strait 6 300 c.I. And a PTO wench. I’m so excited to be watching these videos😊
Gotta love the 75's such a great truck, had a 75 then a 79 with the 1HZ aftermarket turbo, now currently got a 76 series, keep up the great videos. 👍👍👍👍
Watched your three LC videos; very much enjoyed your point of view concerning maintenance and repairs. Good to see a female that is interested in her vehicle. Looking forward to watching more of your LC videos. I drive a '93 PZJ75 truck.
Now i know why you folks down there are not buying Jeep Wranglers;it's because you have the best; Toyota Land Cuisers! Man, do i miss my 1980 FJ-40!Greetings from Canada!
Looooooooove!!! Omg you are my absolute inspo ❤️ So much motivation from this vid to get stuck into my own cruiser. Can’t wait to see what’s install next 🤙🏼
The start of that reminded me of a rave party i went to years ago,,,,,,feeew don't need to go there again, how can your Toyo look so fresh in the morning ;)
To stop the low sulphur (new diesel) from eating out injector seals, put some good quality two stroke oil in a 1:200 mix into your fuel. I run it in my 12ht and have noticed a difference. Keep up the great vids :)
15:25 ............'other than that, 610,000 klms '..........you've got to love Land Cruiser ! And thanks, you made my day, mine has only 310,000 klms on the same engine as yours.
Really enjoying your videos theres a great honesty about them its not scripted which is awesome and your not throwing out "shout outs" to get free gear . Keep up the good work Cheers BK
Hello Danie!, i'm Greg and i live in France ( Basque Country precisely ) and i have a HZJ 75 to. Yours videos are super GENIAL!!! Go on like this! See you...
Very nice rig👍 You don't need the hood insulation, it's for winter and noise deadning. K&N filters are garbage, open the intake tube and see if you have oil dirt mix, most likely if you have k&n.
Yes you do need the hood liner it dissipates heat. And I've had k&n for years and its been excellent way better than paper filter. Just clean and oil it as recommend and they are great.
I like the truck , offroad style safari keep on . I have a toyota 4runner 90' 4x4. Like the rack. I have to put another engine. I have to founded first. Puerto Rico.
Loved this video 👍 really well put together. Great to see girls lovin their cruisers. I had a Pink FJ40 now I have a black 570 Lexus on 33’s with Pink number plates and Pink Aerial. Also have an RM Williams steering wheel cover that hubby brought me. Keep up the good work mate 👍👌
I hope you keep doing these videos. You do them well, you have a great attitude. It reminds me of Dangar Marine from the Hawksbury who does all things to do with boats. Useful hints...nice personality...a pleasure to watch.
You're welcome. We have a 91 troopy with the usual issues but a good motor and drive train, and a relatively immaculate 94 ute currently presenting us with huge potential for unforgettable adventures in as yet unexplored regions of the transfer case. We use UA-cam for back up, because we really only have half a clue and a workshop manual and if we ever get stuck right up the creek, we are pretty friendly with a local mechanic who does the FNQ work ethic quite well even though he is a cheese maker from Switzerland. We try and make him show us the ropes but by the time we have fetched the refreshments, he has pretty much done half of it and we are none the wiser. The point is, you do the youtube presentation really exceptionally well except you won't kick a spare wheel under the truck just in case. Tie a short rope to it so you can easily retrieve it or whatever, but I didn't like watching you crawling in under like that one little bit.
@@amywas1 yeah nice. If you ever have any questions happy to try answer them:) but you sound pretty set! Tyre doesn't fit under axle and putting it under the chassis will not stop the axle from moving. I did a video on my insta showing I can still sit under the guard if the jack collapsed or fell completely out. Screw type bottle jack failures are probably rarer than stands falling out
@@amywas1 you don't have a jack stand on the side of the road to change a tyre and most people don't take one offroad. People need to learn to work safely and be self aware when the circumstances aren't perfect otherwise we become complacent and reliant on safety devices to keep us safe
wow, this videos going nuts for you, well done. Ive got a 200 series youtube channel, I love finding other 4wd related youtube channel, good luck with it all. Looks like you have a fairly sizable Instagram following too.
Dont need a flash 4wd.....I just brought one for $2000 drove it from sydney back to Gold Coast, fixed some minor things, now getting it ready to go up to cape york. Keep up the vids!!
Hey Dani, Awesome video... I have a 96 75 with the same whole on the passenger side haha, loved the info you have on the shocks etc, been a little ashamed of my old girl compared to modern utes etc, but this video has given me motivation to carry on with mine. Cheers !
My Cruiser has the 2L-T the head cracked on a drive over the summer. I decided to go with a different engine altogether, since i live in the states I'll be doing an swap over to petrol.
I've seen a few Aussies and Kiwis do it on ih8mud. I'm not sure how common it really is. I'll be posting videos soon of the progress and everything on my other youtube account and insta too!
Great video. Photos on Instagram don't give justice to the junker quality of things great Cruiser. Good to see that you have only made basic modifications to make the vehicle more suitable to your 4 Wheeling.
I love Toyota Land Cruisers! They give me plenty of recovery practice in my Rubicon! ☺ Just kidding of course. I love the traditional hard core four wheeler and women who drive them even more!
Water isnt the best solution of rust prevention. I lanolin the chassis every major service or before a beach run.Hence why there is not an ounce of rust in the chassis. I dont lanolin paint work and living on the coast eventually paint will chip and the body will rust.
i also own the same type of ute mine being 1992 75 series running 1hz garret after markert turbo straight through 2 1/2 inch exhaust 33 inch tyres setting it up slowly to travel oz just added roof top tent awning solar panel full roof rack from font to back i paid twenty k for mine 12 months ago to many other extras to mention...fell in.love with your video doing landcruiser park.... sweet ride yours too danie keep the videos comming
@@mesahatesayou fitted a roof rack of sixty series place to legs on it at the back then bolted kings roof top tent to it and kings awning as well also running solar panel as well will try and get pics together you hope this helps
Sick rig!! You’ve done a good job building it the way YOU want it, it good to see someone having a go and showing you don’t need a $80k+ ute to get into 4wding, sucks about the rust but aleast you’ve taken the initiative to rectify the issue, keep up the good work and keep the good videos and don’t worry about all the uneducated people who are just hating 😊
Cheers heaps for the support! And yes usually going 4wding there is a high chance of damage so how people take there $80k+ rigs offroad blows my mind haha
Grouse Cruiser you got there. Have you considered using castor correction wedges on the front axle? And do you find the steering doesn't pull as straight since putting on extended shackles?
Hey Danie, watching your UA-cam channel from France. Congrats for your wonderfull LandCruiser. I have a question for you. I am looking for some full white or crystal front indicators lights. No orange parts. Can you help me to find such parts. Thank you for your response. Best regards, Pierre
Everytime you get in your beautiful Land cruiser feel for those of us in North America. We never got the wide spread diesel options nor did we get the entire offering of cruisers. Not to mention we never got the newer (newer is relative) Patrols with the beautiful h233b front axle nor any good Nissan diesel options. Dont ask a North American what a "Ute" is...we don't have them :( Iam jealous, absolutely beautiful vehicle you have there.
As someone who knows pretty much nothing about cars this was really interesting, it as like you where speaking another language when you pointed out each thing haha. I've been thinking about getting into 4wdin but like I feel that I don't know enough about cars and I'd end up buying some absolute shit box that would cause me more problems then enjoyment out of it. Anyway, great video!
Ill tell you a secret, when I first started 4wding I didn't know anything about cars either! But its crazy how when you have a passion for something it translates eventually into all this knowledge!
Hi!!!! Love the LC!! I’ve got one myself. Can you please please direct me on where to find those front clear signal lights?!?! I can’t find them anywhere 🥲
Brilliant videos. Please keep them coming. Super informative. For someone starting off. What would be your top 3 mods to a pick up. Also if I put bigger than 33" tyres on my pick up will it affect my gears?
Locker. Lift. Tyres. That would be the top 3 but winch and recovery gear too. Depends what your factory wheel size is, going up in size will normally affect your speedo and gearing
@@DanieSimpson holy shit that was a quick response. It's a bog standard 03 hilux 2.5l with nothing done yet. We don't landcruisers like yours in Ireland unfortunately 😔 I'm a subscriber for life though. Can't wait for the next video 👌
With the fuel filter, I replaced the old one, to one with a glass water trap, and if I used Toyota or generic filters, they would suck in air. It wasn't until I used Delco filters that the problem stopped. I noticed you have two batteries, but with the winch running off a PTO, do you need all that extra power?
I actually love your truck! But... I do agree with you.... She needs some new metal! Lol... The brown stuff would drive me crazy! Lol BTW, I want your bumper! But I guess I'll have to build one!
@@DanieSimpson awesome. Do extractors really make much of a difference? Have read alot of mixed opinions on them... I'm not going to go the turbo upgrade as I want to keep the reliability and simplicity of the NA. Mainly chasing a nicer note hahaha
but honestly , and i do a bit of comp trucking , get yourself 2x lg fire extenguisers one front one back mine have saved my rig twice , cheap insurance

I was gifted my 75. It was great fun. I sold it last year I think. $4000. Before that was my 40. I still miss her.
Nothing Wrong with the Oldboy. HZJ75 are a good truck. Mine is a 1991 model. Love your work.

You should wash the chasis after driving through salt water. Just hose it down to get the salt out.
