DIY 4X4 Brake Upgrade on a 60 Series Landcruiser

[@ryantilley-general.shenanigans]

Came for the click bait, stayed for the Sound Wagons firey demise. I'm glad it was just a dream, you almost had me!

[@Alex.G]

I'm really loving the tacky click bait titles right now as you have seen 😄

[@ryantilley-general.shenanigans]

@@Alex.G ramp the click baits right up i say, the OG subs appreciate them I reckon. Good level of subtle and not so subtle Alexisms in this one! From quotes to heavy thrusting👍.

[@NathanKingOverland]

Well done! I doubt the local mechanic shop would have done such a thorough job. Especially cleaning all the surfaces.

[@drewgrant3626]

Keep the nuts on the end of the thread when tapping the cone washers off…. I only know this as I have spent hours crawling around on my front lawn looking for one of the little mongrels…. Great vid!!

well done Alex, Jake can drive with confidence now

[@Gravelbeard1]

I can't believe you guys died... That intro was gold

[@haydenhuston9234]

bahahaha that intro was funny af, awesome work

[@roadtrain5910]

Jake's Landy look's awesome for a Japanese used import lol great northern the beer for over there .......where's the bush chooks ?

That intro 😂😂😂😂

In all seriousness nice video mate super detailed

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

LOL what way to start a Sunday morning. I use an alternate way of doing the brakes. Take a small piece of plastic down to the mechanic and wave it at a machine and just like magic the brakes are done :)

[@danielscerri8914]

Hahaha....Mate Love the metaphors got me in stiches. cheers for all the hard work you put into your videos it really shows. :)

[@Alex.G]

Thanks Daniel 🙂 gotta slip the metaphors in to keep an otherwise boring subject somewhat entertaining 😁

[@danielscerri8914]

@@Alex.G Haha too true would be pretty boring otherwise...jokes :)

[@pepperana]

Nice work. You can upgrade the brakes even more. Hilux 106 calipers, 80 master & booster, 47 series rear pistons

[@Alex.G]

Isn't it great how compatible all the Toyota parts are!

[@noelscammell9280]

More info??? 106 calipers is that a model that's easy to source Specific model to match ? Look for 80booster without abs is easy to find 47series rear piston, as in... ?????

[@Mateo8402]

another way to take the cones out is to get a tube or a socket that is bigger than the cones and hit it with a hammer the same "way/direction" you would with the brass drift...

[@ryantilley-general.shenanigans]

9:34, Jake won't be taking a nap next to a press again....... or will he? Next scene, Jake taking a nap next to a press. I'm sure he had his safety beanie on atleast.

[@jakethomasgarner1886]

Didn’t want the press to feel too bad about its mistakes

[@madcat4563]

The roof lining is back.

[@Alex.G]

Yeah! Jake got busy and crafted up a brand new one with a little help from someone who knows their way around a sewing machine

[@bennowinner]

That intro was sooooo bad . . . . . . it turned into great! :-)

[@Alex.G]

I'm keeping my eye out for a "cheesiest filmmaker award" to nominate it for, but so far it seems to be written off as too cheesy

[@Tom-lf8hx]

Ahahaha the back to the future 3 bridge part ahahaha love it!

[@shotgunsoup9300]

Entertaining and informative, as always lol keep up the good work my man!!!!!!

[@japorah]

Good intro

[@nicsworld11]

Thank you so much for this Content!!! Tanks!!

[@NathanKingOverland]

Hilarious! And a great demo as well.

[@johnfowler5012]

Comedy gold, extremely informative too 🙂

[@Alex.G]

Thanks John 🙂

@@Alex.G I admit I’d never seen your adventures on your channel as I was only searching for repair advice. However after watching your heartfelt final video I thought to myself why don’t they just keep doing the backyard mechanics segments? Simple yet funny as hell and much less work I’d imagine. “Beat it like it owes you money” 🤣 “loose as grandmas knickers” 😂😂. Too good, hope all is well🤞

[@Alex.G]

@@johnfowler5012 Most viewers of the adventures came about after searching for a how to and watching a backyard mechanic actually! They are still a fair bit of work, a 1 day job becomes 2 or 3 when filming it. Then another day to edit. If I still had access to a good size shed I'd probably do it though

[@yado7550]

Yo I literally had a dream like this last night 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@hzj7920]

Love the video but unfortunately the best improvement you should have done was installed the LN106 brake calipers instead of old 60 ones... I know original and all but 60 brakes are notorious and this small mod makes it so much safer on the road.

[@brucecamparmament3728]

Alex's rendition of Pink Floyd was both inspiring and disturbing.

[@avit24]

For a real brake upgrade on the front... use hilux, j9, j7 imports, hilux surf, kzj7x. The brake pads have a much larger surface area which will upgrade stopping power. The original 60 front callipers are the same as on a uk lj70. Very surprised you didn't upgrade the calipers!

[@noelscammell9280]

Can the brake pads you mentioned fit with the stock caliper LandCruiser comes with as standard Or need to chase up the caliper for the disc pad upgrade

[@avit24]

@@noelscammell9280 Hi man, you would need to locate the calipers to do the front upgrade.. well worth doing!

[@scotstralian9147]

Your similes are off the chart, haha.

[@outlandyishrig2557]

Hey your wheel stud punch is a bit short 🤣

[@Alex.G]

Yeah I searched for ages trying to find a longer one, sometimes you've just gotta make do 😆

[@robcantwell1981]

😂WOW I’d never drive a car with confidence again after you’d been working on it.

[@Alex.G]

Funnily enough the only time I've EVER had a failure was when I paid someone else to 'fix my vehicles. That's why I do it all myself now 😁

Oh to live somewhere where they don't salt the roads..

She’ll be right maaaate😂😂😂👍

[@matt87888]

Hahahaha fucking champs. Love the intro

[@mishomishev3152]

I watched the whole video, but my brakes are still bad. I want full refund.
