BROKEN Toyota Landcruiser 2024 79series 4cylinder We pull it apart to expose a weakness in front end

[@justinreeders2541]

Good tip actually locking the auto hubs manually, I'll be sure to remember that.

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Yep, saves a bit of guessing

[@Rob.Salta90]

Episodes keep getting better and better… keep em coming mate

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Thanks so much Rob!

[@omniversling]

In a '22 Troopie I can smell a faint diesel whiff in the cab when the DPF burns..will check aircon now too. Thanks for the reveal on the auto hubs...all the best from WA.

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Cheers, appreciate you taking time out to comment

[@tonygreen8221]

Great test of the hubs, but can you do the 4wd community a favour by not driving on areas with no existing tracks (9:48). We’ll end up being locked out.

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Yes understood, thanks for that..

[@kisbushcraftdownunder]

I pleased that I guessed the auto hub failure and not a CV joint on the last episode

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Yes nice, feel we dodged a bullet!

[@gregpurcell4715]

Do you think these new 79s could tow a 3.5 ton caravan ? Love your vids Very informative Cheers 🍻

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

My 2 cents worth.. I would say NO, weekend trips I would go 3.2 tonne max, but if I was doing a lap, I wouldn't go heavier than 2.8.. Towing the comp truck you can feel its working... But that example and you will see in next weeks video, its also the braking that's a concern. Its ok with the upgrade and im sure in time with lock up kits, exhausts and motor mods etc they will be better...

[@rollyb5061]

you thought it was and so did I, yes it was a hub, normal Denny used in those conditions

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Was lucky Rolly B

[@kristianorchard6783]

Love the mild punishment

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Hahaha Cheers

[@craigtomkinson2837]

Lovely ep and 4wd , all I can say is your hard on your gear, haha

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Tell me about it.... Dad always said, I have "rocks in my head"!

[@craigtomkinson2837]

@@TeamBulletOffroad haha Nice

[@philg2468]

You can just leave your hubs locked all the time. No harm done and it is actually of benefit to the life of the bearings in the diff if they keep rotating. Makes no difference to fuel consumption. Mine are always locked when I leave the bitumen.

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Cheers, thanks for the info..

[@scotttoobee5216]

Lovely rig. What wheels are they pls?

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Got them from road runner off-road Will see if I can get name/code number

[@lukeneave]

This engine the same in the 2022 prados?

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Similar but not exactly did a comparison video just recently on the new gr hilux and this 1.. Few differences

[@sirrowdy1]

You can make the auto hubs into free and lock, I did it to mine, then they won’t auto lock

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Thanks for your info

[@lukeneave]

All in all reckon the utes worth the money you pay for it?

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Its steep, yes... but what else is there ?... Chop an older solid axle wagon is the alternative..

[@lukeneave]

@ reckon it’s an engine that’ll go 500km without a re build?

[@FlatBrokeAdventures]

Lucky it was just a hub

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

100% Jim...

[@Eddie_-_]

Nice video. Anyone who has a handy smaller tool to lock the hubs?

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Hahaha, nice.. Yes that's funny... Ill get a smaller set up...

[@shalininaicker]

What size tyres are you running there ?

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

315 70 17s

[@Col.B1]

Good vid mate, Im just back from WA trip, aircon worked fine in low 40c temps with dpf burns, didnt notice any difference. Ronny D experience with auto hubs is that they can disengage if you roll back.

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Yes ok. and thanks for your feedback..

[@simonhjc]

The new nissan patrol 3 litre sadly

[@TeamBulletOffroad]

Cheers
