Добрый день. Очень, хорошая, работа. У меня, 2L. Пробег 450000 т. км. Хочу, установить, 5L. Почему, на 5L, ломает коленвал. Много моторов, встречал 5L, с сломаными коленвалами. Спасибо. Удачи.

Wow this is the first time we’ve ever heard of a crankshaft breaking in a 5L! Ours cracked due to an error in the way our turbo had been installed meaning it was over boosting and putting too much pressure in the engine.

Great build series. We are about to hit the cape with our tinny. Just about to upgrade axels and springs etc to fit bigger Offroad wheel on the trailer. Wondering what brand your black tinny cover is? Looks great. Does it keep a bit of the red dust out?

Hey guys! Thanks so much! Yeah we LOVE our boat cover and yes it keeps ALL the red dust out. It was custom made for our boat by an upholsterer in Noosa. Highly recommend going down that path hey. It’s copped a beating and only had to be patched up in one spot once.

Enjoy your new project S & S - you may likely need to upgrade the clutch unless it’s already been done as they’re known to be weak in this model and also the front wheel track is wider than the rear to accomodate the V8 - a retune may be required also unless you’re happy with the factory tune - here is a KZbin link from a Sydney chap who has reviewed his ‘22 model after two years ownership which may help to inform your upgrades etc - kzbin.info/www/bejne/an_IaaJ8bpxnnrssi=B8psr91v-82yfsLz - good luck with the build.

Congrats on the Ring! and the 79🎉... I've had one for 5yrs now and all i can say is people will either love it or hate it... just ignore the haters as it's what you wanted. I may have done things arse about... sound deadening was one of the first things I did; then a clutch upgrade, new exhaust and towing tune - no more downshifting to go up hills whilst towing (under 2T anyways), and when it's unladen it's phenomenal. I switched focus to building a canopy for it rather than doing any more which I regret as I don't use the canopy as often... i'd like to have upgraded the head unit and speakers but that'll happen sooner or later... then brakes, then suspension & GVM... etc. Anyway, look forward to more videos!

Haha thanks! Big couple days hey! Sound wise it's still better than the Hilux (in my opinion) so probably doesn't bother us as much haha. Luckily it did actually already come with a heavy duty clutch and a tune, we forgot to mention those two in the video but are probably two of the things we should have haha. New exhaust is DEFINITELY on the very long list haha. It should be going in for it's first mods soon (ARB bull bar, side steps, winch etc) before we head down to Tassie in a few months for the canopy!

Hi, I'm totally lost here, any trailer over 750 kg has to have brakes, your car is the same towing up to 750kg no brakes 750kg to 2000 over ride brakes, 2000 kg to 3500kg electric, have you had your ute weights checked your not over on your rear axle weight, I would not bring it into NSW, they love weighing boat trailers that people have over loaded above 750kg and no brakes

Hey Wayne! We do have electric brakes on the trailer? Also yes we've had the tow ball weight checked along with many other weights... but no plans to go to NSW either haha.
