I too am a landcruiser man/ person 80 series hdt, do all me own repairs as well love me bundy but live in WA. The kids love 4wding we all love ya work danie keep the posts coming mate.🤙🍻
Lolololololol you and your friends are a hoot!!! I just discovered this channel and you.i enjoy and impressed with girls/ladies doing their own wrenching...very cool very impressed.
my old hj60 series been sold to Christchurch miss it while my gq nissan safari/patrol was in accident till insurance fix it in another 6weeks I have just bought a 1985 bj75 series landcruiser as a spare truck ✌😊💖
Awesome video! I don’t usually like these style of videos but I found it really engaging so well done 👍 Also what are some tracks around Townsville that you would recommend doing?
That was awesome and funny as hell.. now the one vehicle that makes a good off road IFS is Jeep,, they are different than others they use a dana 30 or 35 and half the axel is solid and the ends have stub shafts,, i own a 2006 jeep liberty KJ with traction control and i love it.. it is great for off road and really really good in the snow with a good set of all terrains on it...just my opinion,, thanks for the laugh and a great video.
Would you ever plan on doing a 4wd trip and letting followers tag along? Could be a cool way for fan interaction as well as getting gnarly videos of your cruiser.
Ok first time I've seen you but your a Ford girl and that's all I need to know, got to be the real deal, you can always tell the character of people by the things they like, so Ford girl has got my heart in the first 10 mimd of watching you, God bless, keep pushing forward
bloody RAAFy chappy…. funny vid, reckon I passed you just the other day. Some 70 series ute with massive tyres heading south from Brisbane around 5ish about a week and a half ago, I was on a yellow and black bike. Nice truck, not an 80, but at least a yota…
@@DanieSimpson hmm could have sworn it was your truck and that you were down here at the time. Guess I will see it again then, was exactly the same. Have a good one and safe travels anyway.
Very nice and down to earth. I like your content. If you ever want to come to the US and need anything, let me know. I will be very resourceful to you. Keep on doing the food work you are doing and stay real and down to earth as you are.
Words of wisdom right here haha they say only drunks and children tell the truth. Also running the wildpek tyres mt's first time, quiet, and hardly any ware apart from left front but my town has lots of round abouts and haven't been bogged in sloppy mud or soft sand so they do good
I just went 4wding tonight, last minute off the highway track and ended up in some slimey riverbank mud.. I am so surprised at the Falken MTs hey, full psi and they found every ounce of traction
Nice to see a young lady with a good outlook on life few and far between these day's what ever you do dont change but make sure you keep one eye open for that special young man lol
Yeah sure for all the new cars that come out about 20mm off the ground😒 75series come out with 31" tyres and the lowest point is the springs and you can't bash plate them
Why is it people rip on tritons, ive never owned anythign else so i honestly dont know any other 4x4. My mk seems really good and always does what i ask of it. Is it just a general thing rip on them thing or do they actyally have a bad rep and i just got lucky with mine?
Peter budd, Because they are Shit. No man just jokes as Danie said just a bit of banter. A friend of mine had a 2003. That thing was a really good truck. And to my surprise it was great at towing. Very overloaded, 4 adult blokes, canopy and tray full of toolboxes, jack and stands and spare parts diff centers, gearboxes etc. And a tandem car trailer that weighed about 1000kg with a 1180kg race car on it. I played around a bit with the injector pump and it pulled harder than a 14 year old school boy. Cheers.
@@DanieSimpson, Thankyou I have been a Mechanic for almost 30 years. People see these hiclones on a infomercial and think wow these must work because the Mechanic (cough actor) on the ad said it worked. I have actually had a argument over one that a customer wanted me to fit. He purchased it from a opposition workshop down the road and I refused to fit it. I had serviced and had taken car of his 4x4 for over 4 or so years. Anyway he went down the road to the opposition and had it fitted. A couple of months later his 4x4 was due for a service on our system. I let I go a week and by chance I drove past the opposition workshop and there was his 4x4 in the parking lot. I was a bit upset because before this he was a great customer. Anyway rambling a bit. The next day he called and said he wanted to book his 4x4 in for its service. The following day I asked him why his 4x4 was down at the other shop and he said when the other shop fitted it they told him they had fitted hundreds of them all claiming bullshit fuel savings and that in 60 days if he didn't see any improvement they would remove it for free and refund him his money. He is lucky he got it writing because the same thing has happened to other people and they only verbally said it. Put it this way with all the automakers trying to save on pollution coming out of the tailpipe and better fuel efficiency wouldn't they be standard equipment on all new cars and 4x4s.
What the hell did they do to that poor dog. Bundy rules IFS is good but a compromise Yes i own a hilux Getting 80 000 +from cooper stt pro Loving the down to earth aspects of your show, keep up the good work. (rescue that poor pooch)
If filming with a camera and tripod is too much of a hassle when you go wheeling, you could try mounting a GoPro to your Ute or wear one. Just set and forget
Hey imm your biggest fan love the videos and your ute and I need your help I wanting a 75 series Landcruiser got a bit to speed how much sould I spend and what to I look out for wanting a 1h and what shocks and stuff sould I get and what wheels as well be going of road a lot thanks
I paid $10k for mine 8 years ago with 450000kms on it so I wouldn't be paying anymore than that. Shocks aren't too big of a concern due it being leaf all round. And 33" tyres are a good size
Yeah and videos like that all you see is the bonnet or the flare and the ground no concept of angles or inclines or articulation or anything. Absolutely cant stand those 4wd videos
@@nicolestephens6799 yes I own s drone but it is illegal under casa laws you fly without being in control and they usually only have sensors on so many sides so trees, powerlines, hawks are still something you've got to be looking for
I laughed "i dont know why you would own a 200 series" i live in rural Australia EVery bloody farmer wife has ether a 200 or a Prado! No joke most are Saharas
Seriously some of the questions people ask you shows exactly why aliens choose not to visit earth!!!! If money was no object, what would be your ideal rig and why?
I've always thought your puppies were impressive, then I watched this video and followed your gidget link and realised that your puppies are truly wonderful! Gotta love Spaniels, they're the best!
Another good vid. You are so kind to open yourself to questions - even the absurd ones. I have not seen all your vids yet but perhaps in a upcoming wheeling adventure you can share some history of that area and include wildlife bits. Keep up the fun stuff!
12:35 for the big question
Paddy Newell thank you!! I wasn’t prepared to watch all that...
🙀🙀Now we have cleared that up🤪👍, I might put myself to bed..😂🤣😀

I clicked like before the video started love your work 🍻👍
Confident I love it!
That was awesome and funny as hell.. now the one vehicle that makes a good off road IFS is Jeep,, they are different than others they use a dana 30 or 35 and half the axel is solid and the ends have stub shafts,, i own a 2006 jeep liberty KJ with traction control and i love it.. it is great for off road and really really good in the snow with a good set of all terrains on it...just my opinion,, thanks for the laugh and a great video.
I had an elocker popped up front... Now my winch never gets used 🤣
My mate just brought a second hand 200 series and it cost him 72 grand , Ill stick to my SR5 Hilux !
When I used to drink, Bundaberg Rum, me and my cousins nicknamed it Qld Diesel and XXXX was Barbwire....
i like it!
Jeep girl is a thing in America! Jeeps are more popular over here. And we don’t have the same land cruisers as you do
Should come down to Cathu one weekend. Just south of me at Prossy
Awesome Q&A
I'm going to come over to tour aussie for a year or more and am looking to import a 4x4 canter lifted motorhome :D
Oh that would be awesome!
You had me at "lockAH"!
Just found your channel. Love it.
Bloody great video mate, love your 75 and keen to see what the 105 will bring
Thank you! And yes will be a video!
Great job. Some questions are kinda silly. I really miss my 40. Bought stock new and put 3" lift 33" mickey Thompson bajas.
Sounds mean!!
@@DanieSimpson it was. Till engine cracked.
Would you ever plan on doing a 4wd trip and letting followers tag along? Could be a cool way for fan interaction as well as getting gnarly videos of your cruiser.

Danie....are you running beadlocks on the 75? Any comment. I'm looking at putting new (steel) wheels on my rebuilt 80....
no and all you wheels on my vehicles are alloy
Hilariously funny loved it good work
Thank you!
Found ya on Instagram as well good work

@@DanieSimpson hmm could have sworn it was your truck and that you were down here at the time. Guess I will see it again then, was exactly the same. Have a good one and safe travels anyway.
Nothing beats Patrols and have Patrol envy here in Merica
Beats them at blowing engines? You are correct. They are number 1
Love this girl

Loved the bloke shit canning Gallen when he was watching the footy. Big thumbs up from me.
Hahaha I will pass it on:)
luv your honesty
I'm i weird for not owning a cell phone by choice since 2007? and no its not a typo literally since 2007.
Sounds like a good life:)
It's not weird it's unique.
I would say one of the first things to get would be a good bash plate they protect all the important stuff under your car 👍
Yeah sure for all the new cars that come out about 20mm off the ground😒 75series come out with 31" tyres and the lowest point is the springs and you can't bash plate them
They also come factory with underbody bash plates
Why is it people rip on tritons, ive never owned anythign else so i honestly dont know any other 4x4. My mk seems really good and always does what i ask of it. Is it just a general thing rip on them thing or do they actyally have a bad rep and i just got lucky with mine?
Just banter. Don't read too much into it. Honestly if I was forced to buy a new dual cab I would probs buy a triton

Hahaha, made me laugh. The dog os soo cute. Damn, Luna Park. I live 5 min up the road. Next time you two are down here, bring some time with you :D
Pretty cute hey! And bummer maybe next time!
Do you eat beef, If so, what is your favorite cut?
No love for the Hilux? I love my Taco, that said I would love 70 series more.
I have a 2000 factory 3.0TD 1kz hilux 😍 my dream ute is a hj40 Cruiser OOFT 🔥
Yeah awesome!!
Danie Simpson Thanks! keep up the good videos an I love your Cruiser 😍
Hi Danie, I like your videos and impressed with your technical skills.
Well it is my job haha but thank you!
Thanks for making life better in the 4X4 world, please don't hate I drive a jeep YJ.
No hate and thank you!
@@DanieSimpson Any love for XJ's?
What would you recommend as a first car. My parents want me to spend all the $$$ I have on a modern ute. Yet I just want an old land cruiser.
Get something that is cheap to run unless you can afford to pay to run a 4.2 or 4.5 either a neeish hilux or an old and good condition cruiser
Then you get yourself an old Land Cruiser.
buy some tools and learn how to fix cars. You will be so grateful later
What @@harveysmith100 said👌👌
@@DanieSimpson Cheers Danie, we know because we know
Get a cheep hilux you will learn a lot and they cheep rego and you will have a lot of fun as much as I love the old cruisers
If you could would you put an 80series chassis under the 75, or do you like leafs
No I wouldn't put an 80 chassis under it.
Is your XY Falcon 4wd on the register? I'm restoring one for my brother in law. Cheers
What do you mean by on the register?
@@DanieSimpson There's an official register so they know how many are left out of the 400 or so that were made.
@@panpantz well there you go:)
Would one of those Hiclones make much difference with fuel economy on a 1HZ?
Hiclones won't make a difference in any engine.

Yeah thought about that too. Might try a set up in the car too
Danie Simpson . @turbo tractors do a pretty good job at it
Keep it up girl

Yeah and videos like that all you see is the bonnet or the flare and the ground no concept of angles or inclines or articulation or anything. Absolutely cant stand those 4wd videos
@@DanieSimpson that makes sense I guess, have you got one of them gps drones? 😂
