THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE VIDEO WITH OTHER

[@sauddaham]

Would this fit a LHD vdj76 ?

[@Figanzi49]

Great video. Everything well explained. Thanks

[@barra69]

Thanks a lot guys much appreciated.

[@rollyb5061]

thanks Travis very great tips and worth watching, learnt a few things ,thanks

[@theacreelife]

Great looking install. Really makes me want to clean up my system. Previous owner looked like he did it all himself and its a spaghetti western under the bonnet. Im too scared to pull anything apart in case it all stops working.

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Sometimes you just have to start from scratch - Start off by removing all the Accessories and then tackle the wiring - best to remove the whole lot and start fresh. Always have a game plan or end goal before you start. if you need any advice or need a solution give us a call

[@slptravel3189]

Very nice, I brought my 79 2nd hand and the wiring is a bit all over the shop, would be ideal to have something like this I do have one question though, why would you run both Redarc Isolator as well as Redarc BCDC? Is the isolator just for joining the 2nd battery for cranking when the main is flat ?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

So sorry for the late reply - we use the sbi solenoid as a battery link for when you accidentally flatten your main you can crank from your Aux Battery

[@dannyoconner9680]

1) have u made battery trays for hiluxs . N79 ? 2) how did u wire up the SBI12 ~ blue ang black wires ? Thanks about to do this install on the 2016 76 cruiser

[@johndiaz7240]

Good stuff, well thought out.

[@rockeater]

Very professional guys

[@rodmcleod3072]

Hey Travis, what is the secondary battery in the last part of the clip please ?? Is it one you recommend ??

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Hi Rod, We use and recommend the Delkor HDC27 - 100Ah deep cycle and Cranking.

[@rodmcleod3072]

Hi PDP, may I know what is the torch you are using in the video?

[@Wadaryu1000]

Would you know anyone in NSW that can provide this kit and level of service?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Darren at Eagle Autos in Camden has Fitted Our catalogue of parts - Otherwise we can send the kit to Your preferred mechanical workshop

[@B.D1111]

Do you always use the intercooler as a work bench ? Lucky its not my cruiser

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Yes because putting down a spanner on the intercooler is going to damage it....

[@alexpoultney7783]

Does this kit come with the battery link switch?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Sure does - Everything is included in the kit.

[@alexpoultney7783]

@@PerthDieselPerformance awesome, Thank you!

[@jamessunjaya21]

Trav the 2018 has an accessory fuse box mounted to the side rail where your two bolts go into the body. Does that need to be moved as well?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

We have a stainless steel bracket that mounts to Our fuel manager kit to hold the fuse box if required - in most cases these are discarded as they are not actually connected to any electrical accessories

[@jasonswift7098]

Ok cool that is informative but when are you going to do a reveal on the grey dual cab that you put the 35" tyres on etc.

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Soon! Almost finished the build. We have been busy 3D scanning the whole car and some new products are being CAD drawn up at the moment.

[@jasonswift7098]

Ok then thank you, look forward to it. Do the new my17 cruiser's with the DPF pose much of a problem with tuning or do you just DPF delete?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

We wont remove the DPF. We have left both our cars standard with DPF and other than no V8 note from the exhaust, no issues with tuning or performance.

[@graemelowry3044]

Hi great videos. I see you specialize in Toyotas but do you do these sort of kits for other makes?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Graeme Lowry just the kits for the 70 and 200 series at the moment. What car do you have?

[@BSHWKA]

What are the dimensions of the tray? And what is the most common secondary battery you install?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

cr2Fiddyrider 320mm x 200mm we use a Delkor HDC27. All details are on our website on our online store

[@liammckenna5639]

Love drilling holes in new cars

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

We don't like to either that's why we pick up on factory locations where ever possible - Fitting a battery tray in does require some drilling - if Our instructions are followed there is no detrimental effect on the vehicle

[@petercooke7348]

What's the going rate for the parts and install?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Peter Cooke the DIY deluxe kit is $1790. You can get the basic kit shich doesnt have the sbi or momentary switch and is $1495. Installed at our shop with a Delkor battery is $2250.

[@sand_shifter]

Will do thanks

[@dawood_s_a7113]

Will it fit on lift side drive ?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Sorry these only fit the right hand drive vehicles

[@sand_shifter]

Do you guys have a kit for a 200. Series 2014 gxl ?

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

We will have a DIY kit early next year. Keep an eye on our youtube channel as we will do a video on the install

[@abdullajassim5299]

[@culllaticiqsu83]

Go to Avasva eco blog and learn how to do it.

[@Ethan-mv2un]

Why am I watching this. I've got a Hilux.

[@PerthDieselPerformance]

Would you want PDP to release a Hilux Kit?

[@xamesm]

@@PerthDieselPerformance I'm watching this and I have an F-150 (can't fit a battery under the hood, needs to be in the bed).
