80 series Landcruiser Turbo Diesel, Modified Episode 42

[@DaneF1]

This is the best modified episode yet, all the bits that normally would get cut out are the best parts.

[@Ronny_Dahl]

It’s always easier when you know someone well in an interview. Had a lot of fun editing this episode

[@SilkOCE]

This bloke is an actual genius.

[@Craqthump]

these 2 together = big grins, great modified episode really enjoyable, & some really awesome idea's on that Sahara, thanks for sharing the knowledge!!

[@rollyb5061]

very true

[@firetofork]

Cheers mate! It's really easy filming with Ronny because we are both useless actors, so when the camera starts rolling, we just carry on as normal.

[@fedvoxavoxa]

You cranked me up so much boys!

[@TomaszbtdZiobrowski]

love the friendship/chemistry between you two :)

[@graphicsdesignbeforeafter]

Like the simplicity of the rig setup and genuine owner!! poor chicken at 21:07

[@arcoeco]

Best modified yet. :) Real world stuff and lots of innovation without spending mega dollars to have the big name brand stuff all over the car. That switch panel is awesome! :)

[@Aidan.17]

Whenever you guys do videos together it’s hilarious! Even the cooking shows as well.

[@rollyb5061]

very true

[@MisterPrecision13]

I know it was the chemistry between two mates, but if your interviews from now on are of that calibre Ronny you could get a job with 60 minutes. Very relaxed and informative with just the right touch of humour. What a pair of clowns. Really enjoyed this one boys. Nice set up also. Keep them coming...

[@williamfairley2502]

That has got to be one of your best interviews

[@rollyb5061]

yes I agree

[@mozaic_channel]

Think I’ve watched this episode over 20 times to get ideas for my 80. Still my favorite rig and episode. Harry moved on to the Prado but the 80s still have some life left in them.

[@manuelwebe]

Best modified episodes. Pure authenticity.

[@TimsBitsnPieces]

A great vid and vehicle. It's great to see someone that has done things without costing heaps and plugging all the different companies. There should be more vids with simple yet effective and cheap mods for most of us that don't have buckets of cash or sponsors. You both are fantastic together, the commentary flowed well and informative also at the same time. Keep up the great work.

[@caramelypoops]

Really long video, I was worried I'd get bored halfway through but really enjoyed it to the end.

[@firetofork]

I was even worried I'd get bored watching it when I found out how long it was!

[@greatsouthernoverland]

Harry's a good fella, with skills :) best modified episode to date. Bring him on all the trips Ronny, you guys bring the best out in each other!!!

[@yuridaman]

Gorgeous 80. Well done Ronny. Most enjoyable modified yet.

[@beyondbitumen7914]

Best modified yet.

[@mikekay213]

Most detailed and entertaining modified...great guest too!

[@chris.s1678]

Best modified ep, quality banter, i didnt notice until reading the comments then went to check how long the video actually was :O

[@aldosarretti9223]

Toyota give us back 80's!

[@bigoz1734]

If they made an 80 series in 2019 that had a stock V8 turbo diesel and the classic 80 design I'd set out to buy one straight away. There's so many from the mid to late 90s out there but it's hard to get them under 450k kms or in decent condition

[@dolmarf411]

@@bigoz1734 i sell them in europe. the best is the 24 valve 1HD-FT, better then the V8. with a bit tuning and different turbo setup you get a very fast Land Cruiser.

[@PadmaDorjee]

That would have to be the most enjoyable video I have seen on your channel Ronny! The connection between you and Harry is so infectious and hilarious, I loved so bloody much. You were the first person I saw talk about 4WD life and I am so hooked, I am now looking for an 80 series like Harry's. Thanks for opening my eyes the a wonderful life of freedom and pure enjoyment.

[@bananasusyd]

Best modified episode yet!

[@maman89]

This sahara version is so lust worthy. The engine,sunroof,buttons and especially the factory fridge.

[@slowboat6021]

good to see you guys having fun. thanks for sharing your 80 with us Harry.

[@lumpskie]

Saweet! I've always wanted to learn more about Harry's Cruiser! Posted on my birthday no less!

[@emuonwheels1990]

One of my favorite episodes. You all should drink during all your modified filming. Lol. Good job every time Ronny. Keep um coming.

[@Ronny_Dahl]

We only had two beers, one at the start and one towards the end. Murray in the river had plenty however!!!

[@buddhikapulasthi2998]

Really enjoyed this episode mate! I love the friendship between you two! One of the best videos yet! Good luck!

[@scharvey]

Love the dude drifting down the river in the tube...

[@austinc5103]

25:15 love the fellowship there

[@jimbrewer429]

Great vid, this would have to be my favorite one as not everyone has endless cash to throw around. Great setup Harry keep up the good work Ronny

[@MrLangDog]

Don't take this as an insult Harry, but I enjoy your commentary on videos because you have a bit of an American edge to you. You don't mumble and you don't play the "humble ol' me" card. What I said probably made no sense to you but but cheers from Florida Ronny and Harry!!

[@victor-emmanuel7485]

One of my favorite land cruisers!

[@CambridgeCrusaders]

One of the best videos yet! Absolutely love the trips/videos with you and Harry, and a great Cruiser!

[@Gorian01]

Best episode yet, engaging for 43mins hard to do

[@mikemalone2389]

Best modified episode ever!

[@sephirothpgc]

best episode yet :D

[@rollyb5061]

enjoyed it, great stuff

[@Flemberg27]

Awesome!! How good is that! Great ideas without breaking the bank! Great stuff boys :)

[@BerettaMato]

Best modified and I watched them all. Two mates and a cameraman having fun. I love your 79 but here in the states we can't get one, love my 80 best offroad I have had. I am a patreon and this video is why I support.

[@firetofork]

Thanks mate, I really appreciate that and I know Ronny appreciates the support on Patreon. Great to also hear from fellow 80 drivers.

[@coenstant]

Brilliant and dead honest review, thank you gentlemen, very entertaining as per usual.

[@rustyoverland8574]

This is the best modified episode I've ever seen. You guys are a riot 😂

[@phantim_othy571]

As a newby and soon retired, you really are giving some great tips ... Love your Vlog... Thank you mate from WA..👍

[@sloth_e]

Mustve been a small roo to clean up n drive off. I hit one at 100 in a rodeo and it pushed the bull bar onto my front wheels locking them. Smashed front end and drivers side. Couldnt open my door. Glass smashed etc. Found a tooth in my tray that looked like it shoukdve come from a small pig. Southern nsw has big roos though. He was 6ft plus easy 100kgs. If he didnt push the bar onto my wheels I'd have ended up in a 5 ft drop into a running creek in winter. Train style cattle plough the ain't lol. This is one of my fav modified vids. Love the genuine banter you have with your mates.

[@fipsicola]

You both are a good Team !

[@matejhosner1980]

Best episode so far!

[@hiteck007]

The 80 series is the best 4 by ever made. it took me over 2 years to find one like yours, a 1HD-FT Auto with Nomad valve body plus many other things but not as extensively optioned out as your rig. Like the battery setup, you can power just about anything there.

[@naceks]

I love this video because this is how usual off roaders/overlanders look 95% of the time - all dirty, denty, missing loads of pieces (definitely more at the end of the trip :D). I don't trust people who say they are off roaders and their cars are immaculate :)

[@hamishduley4406]

The brick is back!!!

[@frankborlase4772]

great video, loved the crack about the skyline. the build up just shows how different people do their trucks and the back is thought out and useful for Harry and not big $ and alot done by Harry, top job.

[@firetofork]

Cheers mate! I have tried not to overcapitalise on him - he's only a $20k car so I want to be able to take the whole back setup out and dump it in a new one if I had an accident or if he had too many issues. It only takes a day to remove and replace the whole rear system

[@alexanderSydneyOz]

Most interesting! I love the idea of the stainless steel on the rear tray, and the retractable key thingies for holding the fridge cables in place. If you happen to notice this post, I missed how much battery storage is in the car. thanks

[@firetofork]

Alexander Stollznow cheers mate 260ah of aux battery

[@seancleary2295]

​@@firetoforkI came to comments fir same question. Is it set up n two batteries? What are they/it? Deep cycle or LiFePO4? Brand? They are behind the plastic drawers? How rigged?

[@firetofork]

@@seancleary2295 They were AGMs linked in parallel with a 40amp redarc charger. one under bonnet and one in the boot with 2 gauge wire connecting them

[@murphtahoe1]

This is a great video! Nicely set up-rig and you guys have a great dynamic between you. Thanks for sharing this Ronny!

[@francislegros7842]

Good to see I’m not the only Velcro user in a 4wd good for holding phones hand held radios power cords etc

[@sfrrob]

Really enjoyed this episode. More candid stuff like this would be a nice addition.

[@shauncomper1304]

Brilliant episode, great truck and the two of you together are an awesome double act.

[@dominiquefaydherbe7429]

Loving this episode mate

[@DriveOnLeft]

Best one yet! Loved the joking around.

[@danielfaith1]

Best modified episode I've seen 😂

[@stephenh7965]

really nice mod, nice to see what can be built without spending crazy amounts of cash. bloody good job 👍🏽

[@heftymerv]

Good idea on the fridge drop-slide with the power cord, I used to have the same slide and fridge. Keeping the cable tidy was a right pain in the bum, think I accidentally cut it three times...

[@firetofork]

I must have cut mine 10 times before a mate showed me this setup!

[@rollyb5061]

nice 80 Harry, I had a GXL the last model 80 Toyota built, loved it and solid axle, with your light bar lower it closer to the roof of the 80. I find my 79 with a roof top light bar is quite ok with no reflection on the bonnet, but it is close to the roof under my roofrack, changed my UHF radio aerial to black instead of the white one I had, and it was broken anyway, great review guys, enjoyed it

[@powmia5073]

Great episode, nothing fancy, very original, great laughs, thoroughly enjoyed.

[@AZTLANSOLDIER13]

Light post is awesome. Great idea

[@MADBONE0]

Grab a small thin strip of aluminium and stick it to the bottom of your eBay LED Bar so it protrudes a little bit with the light on .. so it clears your bonnet ;) 👍🏽 P.s .. love the brick

[@firetofork]

Great idea!

[@gibbethoskins8621]

I set mine back a bit and have a dark coloured bonnet, no dramas

[@firetofork]

Unfortunately my rack can't go back any further and the light bar won't fit under it, I'd love to have it further back and lower

[@electrontube]

Brick! Harry, pre-Fred. Love the videos, all of them! both of you!

[@gosiak.4717]

The best modified episode ever ;) You should always have a beer and a day on a sun before filming :D

[@AUSBennyb]

Cool cost effective build

[@markabaxter]

Nice one fellas, that looked like you were having a good laugh! Have an 80 Series too, so enjoyed the mods and look around 👍

[@ginkooutdoors8480]

Great work ronny!

[@NKPGarage]

Fantastic rig!

[@kiaran1155]

Absolutely brilliant episode! Harry, your 80 series made me want to go for a drive so badly in my 105 turbo diesel I made a late night visit to the servo 😂

[@firetofork]

kiaran hobbs thanks mate! I love the 105s, the interior room is ridiculous

[@kiaran1155]

Harry Fisher that’s why I love it! I have the same fridge as you do, the camping technique at the moment is to roll the middle seat flat and sleep on the draws next to the fridge! Works a treat

[@simonhooper9071]

Lol, best review yet! love your work Ronny

[@berserk7111]

Excellent video!

[@krg3au]

The dude floating past at 4.27 looks very relaxed...

[@GarminPro]

Best guest.

[@chaoticmuscles]

Awesome rig harry, lots of ideas I'm gonna steal thanks

[@petergregg7121]

This is the best video by far!! Was pissing myself 😂. Great rig

[@LylaandFloratwins]

"She smacks a Roo at 110. I had to clean it the next day; that's it. Didn't crack any thing; didn't do anything. It's a shame the roo died. But. We didn't. it's great." [ died laughing ]

[@LylaandFloratwins]

42:15 !

[@Hazardbone]

Wow that's one crude cabin setup I love it👌

[@FryNOR]

Great video!, i would like to see a 60 series in one of your videos some day.

[@BraceFor]

Great modified. Hope to see more expedition modified. Cheers from the US.

[@marzy2423]

Where did 40min just go, such a great Modified.

[@kenmarapese9085]

Excellent vid! Nice rig!

[@williamkeating6406]

Good one guys.

[@NISMO-OFFROAD]

ha ha , nice entry ronny you crack me up

[@mattledger8784]

Great interview, clearly great mates and very comfortable together doing the segment, 10/10 lads!Harry, it’s encouraging to see you aren’t afraid to buy budget gear sometimes and get good results, shame about the tyre tho, I’ve got a KM2 casing with 80% tread if you want it, free! It’s excess to my needs and taking up space in the shed. Where did you get the food grade stainless, I’d like to change my table surface, very practical idea!

[@firetofork]

Thanks mate! We are probably too comfortable together, we spend the majority of our time together taking the piss out of each other. A spare KM2 would be amazing if you don't have any use for it mate! What's the best way to get in touch?

[@firetofork]

I have a few massive sheets of the stainless - I'll swap you the tyre for a strip of it.

[@mattledger8784]

No worries Harry, you can email me at [e-mail], that’s probs the easiest way, cheers mate.

[@aussieoffroader1974]

Theres just something about an 80❤️❤️

[@itlldoo6128]

legend !

[@paulfretwell3892]

Best modified ever lol.

[@brianlight319]

Keep it up!! you guya ROCK.

[@Mojojosie86]

This video had me literally laughing out loud, Love your stuff :) One thing I always noticed (more so of late) the overall volume of your videos seems to be very low, I have to turn my speakers right up compared to other KZbin videos, Just thought I'd mention it

[@jacobbandman4493]

"Also my girlfriends five foot so that doesn't work"😂 stitch up. Loving your vids Ronny, try and get onto a 60 series for a modified episode

[@philburns4778]

Loose, what a awesome rig, love 😍 it hit a roo,

[@firetofork]

Cheers! I think old Brick has hit 5 or 6 now - my previous cruiser hit about 15

[@fintech112]

Wonderful would love to join u guys and tht is the best mods 80 everyone can spent money but few use mind and get things done well enough to enjoy their ride best of luck all of u hope to see u ppl someday blessed

[@williamritchie8966]

Episode 42 30:12 I have seen these little bags over your shifter levers in Ronny's ride as well, what's with those?

[@firetofork]

Hahaha they are stubby/drink holders, we just leave them on the shifters so we always know where to find them.

[@williamritchie8966]

Should have known ;o)

[@MotoDUDEabides]

Nanna’s ankles! I almost just pissed my pants.

[@leobrasil5986]

Boa noite .gosto muito dos seus vídeos e de seus carros. Parabéns. um abraço aqui do Brasil.

[@dannyotter7247]

Great vid this, well worth the watch :-)

[@asecret900]

Go the mighty 1HD-T 80, I'll never ever ever part with mine! And I suggest a single (dual feature) Boost + EGT gauge like a 52mm jobbie from JP Racing... put it on your a-pillar :)

[@rjl110919581]

THANKS FOR VIDEO

[@raymondowilson8537]

Pacey I'm back. Nice 80. Great modified video Ronny! Its a good one. I've got a 97 80 series. She's cherry and I haven't really modified much. Added a center diff lock switch and a dual battery for my fridge. Cole, have you ever considered free wheeling hubs? I know there a bit pricey but I was thinking less wear and tear on front axle? Not sure if your spare tire hangs down to much; any issues with that? If you bring a 1hd-fte to the states you can visit anytime. Thanks guys!!!

[@firetofork]

Raymondo Wilson mate! Great to hear you enjoyed my earlier work, such a shame it got cancelled. I had free wheeling hubs on my old 80 and never found it made much difference- my front diff is rebuilt, so it's tight. The spare tyre is only there for really long trips so it's not an issue, airbags will help there too, I have a trailer with matching tyres now so that should fix that issue

[@Frank-bh3cm]

Nice budget build.

[@johndiaz7240]

The best one
