2 modified episodes in a couple of weeks, hellz yeah. LOL when old mate jumped up at the start like Ronny. This thing has everything you could possibly need and more.
So far my favourit vicicle from all modified episodes! Very authentic, he knows his car, nice to see clever solutions. Thanks and all the best from Germany
Another great modified video Ronny, always lots of great ideas and I like Matt's approach to his build using old and new, top vehicle well done Matt. Cheers Darren.
Nice tray setup, very practical.. You must park the ute under cover if your batteries are not charging, all that charging equipment you should have loads of excess power My old $120 cheapo 1000w inverter will run a 1250w hair dryer on high for a good five minutes before it cuts out maybe something wrong with your inverter..
hey ronny just if your interested. today when I was at woolorama in Wagin I saw multiple off-road/camping areas that you may be interested in looking at. there is also Polaris, can-am, oze4x4 and a few other cool off-road brands that would be cool to look at. the last day of the show is saturday 11th march and the entry is free.
Ronny enjoy the videos, how about for a modified episode you feature a Holden Colorado RC model. They are pretty popular over there in WA they have there own Facebook group you should meet up with them!
Ronny great episode once again l am modifying a 130 Defender with a 14 inch stretch in tray and also a fare few mods would you be interested in having a look when finished
Great video Ronny! I agree, this is one of the better configured 79's that I've seen on your channel. No offense. ;) I would be interested to know the weight of all that cargo. Thanks!
Question MATT in regards to your driving lights , if you didn’t have the light bar and the driving light (in front of the grill ) ; and just used the light force rock bodies would it be enough to use driving ps great rig Denis
Been wondering when watching various clips from different ppl. When u buy all these different items to go in to canopies, is there płaces that specialise in fitting out/installing and advising on the best way of doing things? I come across lots of mod's that make sense when I see them, but I wouldn't know in what order to do a build.
1 piece of constructive criticism, please stop answering a question with a question, it's very annoying. Other than that, all the modified episodes are great and I always learn something from them.
Well spotted Sir. In most cases, a better performing antenna may be mounted further back and leave the view of the driver unimpeded. I am happy you spotted this and commented because most people in the 4wd game just follow each other like sheep and put big antennae up front.
Ade Larsen In Scandinavia the standard is to try and put it as much in the middle of the roof as possible. That way the whole roof can become a receiver and give good coverage :) the trend seems to be front for Australia, back for America and middle for Europe
Yes, if only Australian's realised that a small antenna mounted in the middle of the roof worked better than some of these monstrous erections they place on the bulbar in view of the driver. In fact, I have a video on my channel about this subject, showing mounting UHF, VHF and HF on the middle of the roof. It's called a Ground Plane. You might like it. Also, my family is from DK and Norway and I have lived half the year every year in Norway. I have also lived and worked in Finland, Sweden, DK and Norway. Where are you from ? Hvor komme du fra ?
That is one expensive setup he has there. So, do you guys have other vehicles to use as a daily driver while at home? I would hate to travel around everyday with that much gear on my vehicle.
hang on when he said at 8:43 i start the car every weekend does he mean that he can afford to pay for this car to sit in the shed plus own another car to drive during the week geezz $$$$$
Ronny what is your opinion on an older Land Rover Discovery? Like a 2002 4x4 not AWD or such. I'm trying to build my first overland vehicle and am trying to decide on what to build. I don't see many Toyota Land Cruisers where I live in Canada but there are several Discoveries for under $10,000 . . . . Cheers
A 2002 Land Rover is not the most reliable thing on the road. They can work, but I would not trust it to bring me home from a real adventure. Why not go for an LX 470? Should be similarly priced and much much much much more reliable. Just an opinion from a nobody though.
Hi all - another great vid Ronny. What I'm wondering what kind of budget should you set aside after the cost of the 4WD to get it to this level of capability? Is it an $10k or is it approaching $20k - $30k?
Is it possible to buy a unit like this separately new or used in Aus with everything installed already?How much would one cost.Will appreciate if someone can reply.Thanks
For a tidy job, also get a role of aluminum duct/heat tape for the joins. I have removed my saggy roof lining in my 4x4 and replaced it with the double sided alloy 10mm foam roll you can get from hardware or left overs from a building site, It cost me around $50 rather than $400 for a reline and is also good for under bonnet lining .. Its a big improvement my truck looks like a spaceship with all the electronics, switch panels, and conduit..
Such a great looking rig with all the right equipment needed... another great video!

Listening to Ronny interview these folks, you can tell he really knows his stuff.
One of the best organized trucks you have shown, that is some awesome work.
We Americans are just so jealous of you guys down under. You really do know how to enjoy your weekends.
at @18:30 when he said "im trying to do it on a budget" it made me laugh.
kind of digging the center console fridge.
retiredppd gotta make sure you get the real fridge tho .. CDF-11 waeco .. not the TB08
yeah, keeps your soft drinks cool & it's an arm rest... win/win
retiredppd just watch out because there not actually a fridge, there a cooler they only are good to keep drinks just cool.
Fantastic build and the craftsmanship shows
WOW!! what a crazy set up. So jealous, great episode Ronny.
Another great modified video Ronny, always lots of great ideas and I like Matt's approach to his build using old and new, top vehicle well done Matt. Cheers Darren.

Good lord this truck is decked out!
That fridge/slide combo costs as much as my entire suspension.
Love these vids.
Australians have got overlanding down pat.
Nice tray setup, very practical.. You must park the ute under cover if your batteries are not charging, all that charging equipment you should have loads of excess power
My old $120 cheapo 1000w inverter will run a 1250w hair dryer on high for a good five minutes before it cuts out maybe something wrong with your inverter..
This is fast becoming the landcruiser channel ron 😅
That V8 sound 👌👌

Nice Bolt Cutters in easy reach :)
They must come in handy for recovery
love it thanks ronny.
love the rig mate.
wow this guy thought of everything, we'll done
Hey Ronny you missed the timestamp for the canopy in the description
Awesome set up. Have you ever considered an upright fridge like Jase from all 4 adventure. its a 110L Waeco and saves a lot of space.
It would be nice know much has been on these modified vehicles.
What a fab vehicle, some time and money went into that rig
far out Ronny that beard is coming along well
Ronny anyone you run with have a holden colorado? ive got the american version would love to see an overland build on 1 of em
Ronny enjoy the videos, how about for a modified episode you feature a Holden Colorado RC model. They are pretty popular over there in WA they have there own Facebook group you should meet up with them!
sounds like a beast
Great Video Ron as always, might wanna let this bloke know that the 16A RCBO wont do anything for strikes.
Ronny great episode once again l am modifying a 130 Defender with a 14 inch stretch in tray and also a fare few mods would you be interested in having a look when finished
Really nicely done up vehicle btw!!!
ronny love your stuff all the way from kenya ( east africa ) , please do a prado 150 or land cruiser 200!!
epic rig
I'm just Glad for another video Ronny Dahl I was getting bored
Nice setup!!
I'd love one of these trucks, pity we can't get them here in the UK.
Maybe you can do hilux again?
Saw you boys in Albany today..
Great video Ronny! I agree, this is one of the better configured 79's that I've seen on your channel. No offense. ;) I would be interested to know the weight of all that cargo. Thanks!
Damn I need on of those Tyre checkers, my crow bar was confiscated, apparently it was a weapon.No conviction recorded.
who needs a house when you have that
Question MATT in regards to your driving lights , if you didn’t have the light bar and the driving light (in front of the grill ) ; and just used the light force rock bodies would it be enough to use driving ps great rig Denis
Hey guys nice Truck indeed.... wondering where you got the padded insulaton material for lining the insude of the van mate???
Hahaha I bought this exact canopy!! You all missed out
beard is elite
Love the show mate. Enough of the 79 series. Let's see a Prado.
Is there any way to get rid of that slapping and drone sound from the exhaust ? It would become very annoying on long trips..
hey ronny could you do a modified video on a hdj79r rv landcruiser if you can find one thanks.
awesome modified mate! whens one on a 200?
wish we had these in the state's
love the content. still wishing for a 75series ute to drag some ideas for
+Dylan Barton eagerly looking for one still
Been wondering when watching various clips from different ppl.

I come across lots of mod's that make sense when I see them, but I wouldn't know in what order to do a build.
+Ross Westmore mostly its DIY fitment
Hi. Nice rig. I am especially interested in the aux diesel tank. Where did you get it?. I have been hunting for onr
Name it, he got it
Hey Ronny when's an Ftruck build in process of doing mine atm would love a build
lol overkill, pie warmer, lol. Where do you put your chair, luggage and swags?
MOOSEDOWNUNDER Roof rack.
What's with the GGS rego? you an old by Matt?
what do diff breathers do? why do u need them
so no water dirt or mud gets into the diff
Helps them breathe so they don't suffocate.
Brad Młodystach I did both axle seals due to not having breathers, drained over 5 litres when it should have drained 3.
The thumbnail made it look old and shitty... boy was I wrong
1 piece of constructive criticism, please stop answering a question with a question, it's very annoying. Other than that, all the modified episodes are great and I always learn something from them.
Why have the antennas on the front? Can't they be at the back? They seem to be a irritation to the visibility up front!
Well spotted Sir.
In most cases, a better performing antenna may be mounted further back and leave the view of the driver unimpeded.
I am happy you spotted this and commented because most people in the 4wd game just follow each other like sheep and put big antennae up front.
Alright thanks for you answer! Keep up with the videos! Fan from Sweden/Stockholm

Get rid of that fridge and get a trailblazer fridge/freezer there reliable and Australian made!
Awesome set up! Something I dream on doing in the future! Wanting to trade in my fj for a 79 GLX one day
How the fxxk do these blokes afford this stuff!!!?

I'm glad he's not shamed to say budget and saving money and make do's
I do the same man and it benefits the future items i could get. Onya
What is the thing on the bonnet called and where to get it?
Awesome

+akbardumbar 25-40k depending on what you do as DIY
Where did you get the hood thing from?
Is it possible to buy a unit like this separately new or used in Aus with everything installed already?How much would one cost.Will appreciate if someone can reply.Thanks
Look up patriot supertourers. They cost the same as a small house
i wanna know how heavy it is.
Hey Ronnie, its axle not axel, just saying?
ronny how can i tag along with yous
This things awesome, fark.
That 16A combo wont do shit for lightning strikes, he needs a surge arrester on his house.
Can you tell me what insulation you have lined the canopy with please
Kate Goodwin that's just a 1 inch thick Styrofoam panel with a silver backing. You can get it at a home supply store.
Thanks
