@Ronny Dahl your editing was next level, camera work was exceptional. I’ve watched this 3 times already to enjoy the whole process. Excellent mate! 11/10.

[@stco2426]

Agree.

Yep its great work but he had a cameraman who probably assisted in the edit.

[@merv190]

@@findingselfagain4014, he has a editor and a cameraman, , they should be getting the recognition.

and also back to filming most stuff however this trip we shared filming 50/50.

[@docbob3030]

Pretty brave tackling the Brunswick and Holland tracks with all the rain we've had down here lately....... but at least it makes the beach sand much easier to drive on! 👌 Goodonya for having a crack and showing the conditions of these popular local destinations 👍

[@richwhetton]

Killed the alternator in the first proper muddy hole I drove through in my new V8 Troopy, about 2 weeks after I got it, so I feel your pain, took it out and got it working again with a WD40 refurb but I have constant anxiety about it now, and changing it again - pig of a job!

[@nicoesko1956]

There is aftermarket water cooled alternators for them. The mines use them but they are pretty pricey

[@alanmay7929]

@@nicoesko1956 alot of german/European vehicles have water cooled alternator too! Can't someone just upgrade them?!

[@radaraacf]

I have a perentie, I move mine up 200mm to the top of the engine bay then chucked a York 210 air compressor beneath it since it isn’t really much electrical bar the E clutch

[@radaraacf]

@@alanmay7929why oh who would they water cool an alternator? They never needed them in the past while they don’t get the weather us aussies do sounds like the Germans just want to justify the BS price tags

[@nicoesko1956]

@@radaraacf ??? Better cooling is one of them. Also on the vdj the alternator sits low and mud compromises them which is the main reason they fail prematurely. If you want yours to be a road princess I wouldn't bother with the water cooled but if you do a lot of 4WD then I can justify that.

[@o01Maximus10o]

Finally another trip video! More like this please.

[@jimmyjones2426]

Hey Ronny just on the v8 alternator mud thing. We have run a fleet of 2.8 Hilux’s at my work for about 5 years now. Plenty of mud and water driving due to the scope of work. We’ve found the 2.8s reliably have starter motors fail around the 100,000km mark. Behaves like a low/flat battery. Other than that, they’ve handled the tough love quite well

[@findingselfagain4014]

Yep the toyota starter motors since the early days have given up arround 150 on my 79, my 80 is on her third but she is at 520ks.

[@deadbird699]

Love the bar! And I enjoy how your switching between the grenadier and the 70 series love what you’ve done with both!

[@rangabanga32]

i liked this episode.not just a car review.well maybe a really well hidden car review.

[@stilley78]

I've got an Offroad Animal Predator bar on my Suzuki Jimny without the hoops, with the same two front recovery points. I am really happy with mine!

[@lastknownlocation8760]

I think it’s the auto that makes the difference rather than the engine. I recon if Ronny had the choice between a v8 auto v8 manual and 4 cylinder auto and 4 cylinder manual - he’d definitely take the one that would generate the most views and controversy.

[@aus-reviews8462]

funny part is majority of aussies cant even afford a shitbox early 2000s landcruiser

[@abstractspaces8186]

It is funny how easily people get baited by it though. They treat it like a culture war when it's just economics.

[@Corey-pd3mi]

Don’t underestimate the draw of half the fuel costs in the 2.8L to do the same thing, business is business

[@deanriley5690]

It goes to show how much better an auto box is.

[@abstractspaces8186]

​@@deanriley5690Objectively it might be but I do prefer the mechanical feel of a clutch to the vagueness of a torque converter.

[@Marks.Reviews]

Great video Ronny. Especially with explaining the experiences you’ve had with the different vehicles e.g alternators, auto and manual transmissions for a particular off condition etc. Really good stuff.

[@Ronny_Dahl]

Thanks 👍

[@wilcovanamersfoort6744]

We did the Holland Track end of May when we came back from Brisbane. When we were halfway through, it started to rain. The Track became very slippery and water everywhere. Not a much as you had. We managed to come through with our Kimberley Kamper in tow but needed the winch once. A great trip.

[@jeanmichaelc1]

I have to admit, all I want to see in action is the Grenadier that's parked at the back

[@stilley78]

Yeah me too. How would the Grenadier compare going down the descent? What about the beach?

[@OneHeartMission]

Me too!

[@1sobitis]

Man I gotta tell you. I love your vids. Excellent work, well done. Greetings from Greece

[@jeffreyscott4564]

The Truck looks really good. (And yes, I'm a Grenadier owner)

[@edithnganga585]

I love Toyota off-roaders and I have come to even appreciate them more lately

[@stco2426]

I personally like the bar. A bit bare, but then it's less weight that a 'full' one. It also looks like it's meant to be there and totally normal.

[@johnnyutah4517]

I started hitting Bornholm beach in the very early; 80.s the only vehicles that that would take it on were the little SUZUKI 50’s and 80’s anything else was a disaster. Great stuff Ronny and thanks again for your work !!!!

[@TheMrtuikka]

Greetings from Finland, regarding sleeping in cold: have a good sleepingbag and do some excercisess before jumping in to it and then take all clothes off. And here at winter we have tents open. No muisture and the sleeping bag keeps you warm. Love your vids, keep It up

[@jonbarlow3542]

Great video Ronny, love the simplistic kit, I like the bar but would opt for one that covered the whole front; head-lights as well.

[@kennethmcgrane3130]

The bull bar looks great. Suits the vehicle very well. 👌

[@tareskisloki8579]

Great video Ronny, I do like that bar, as someone that has run a bumper only bar since the early 2000,s I feel that even if you lose a light and guard in a strike, as long as the radiator is protected, you won't be stranded, so unless you're actually pushing through brush, it's a non-issue.

[@buster_1972]

I like that bar.

Really enjoyed that episode! Liking the wagon, thinking about getting a wagon when we are back in Australia. Currently traveling in our troppy through Japan on our way to Germany... But seeing yiur videos makes me miss traveling/camping in Australia already ^^

[@andrewjones-productions]

I hope you are enjoying our wonderful hot and humid weather. Enjoy Japan - there are many, many beautiful places to visit. Even if the ridiculously low speed limits and endless traffic lights make things tedious.

[@anic0485]

@@andrewjones-productions Thanks mate, haha yeah the 40km/h speed limit and traffic... And the humid weather... We just arrived back from Hokkaido and didn't miss either ^^. But we do enjoy our time in Japan (3 month now), but equally looking forward to taking the ferry to south Korea soon.

[@trevwebbins2511]

Did a camp last weekend in nsw high country, -9 degrees at 8am at about 1,000m asl. I don't recommend closing up the swag without expecting condensation dripping down.

[@Hillbilly973]

Yeah Ronnie, i was going to say. I love my swag, wouldn't swap it for anything but shut the canvas up tight and you're soaked. I'm a winter camper and love it. Swag under a simple tarp, one side open (or both ends), and really good bedding. I always sleep like a baby. 😉 Thanks for another great vid. Keep em coming! JT from Kalamunda.

[@57guyro]

Very good but don’t like the front bar you know as well as I do when you hit a kangaroo they usually take out front corners there goss your head lights and your guards

If You didn't want to have problem with LED flashing. Get new Sony A9 III with global shutter. It will readout whole frame at once, and You will be free from light flickering and rolling shutter issues ;)

[@SaliseProductions]

The ISO on the A9M3 needs to be higher because of the sensor photosensitivity, may have noise issues on dark areas

[@404errorpagenotfound.6]

I think it looks cool, like it is alive.

[@QueenslandOverland]

Omg, $8,000...insane. Not saying it's not worth it! 😎

Or set the shutter speed at 1/50 or match with whatever the LED light’s frequency.

Awesome series Ronny smart and simple set up. 👍 Cracked a tin sat back and enjoyed that. No V8 but wow proves ya don’t need one 👍🍻

[@Silvos29]

The 2.8 land cruiser runs hot when towing and sand driving. Each cylinder working double the rate to put out the same power as the V8

[@S-CARR-oi4ye]

You bar is "bloody brilliant", Good bang for a Buck.

[@caltravels9454]

Oh yeah, the air intake is up high for a reason, so why put the alternator down low, pure lunacy in my book.

[@kentgriffiths6288]

Agree with you on the Offroad Animal bar Ronny. I'm personally not a fan of the new 70s front in either stock or bar work but you've made it look pretty good and its growing on me

[@smackhead]

Of course it is. The sheep follow the Shepard. The entire series is farce - the worst of all are comments like "Peak outputs are only 1kW less than the V8 diesel but 70Nm more torque." - you know what? 1.6 litre 4 cylinders were producing 1,000HP in F1 in the 80's... look at how long they lasted durability wise. Just like direct injection all this faff is done to appease the vocal minority - the sad thing is the majority always ends up being NPC's following the Shepard because 'it's cool'

[@kentgriffiths6288]

@@smackhead I still would never buy one. There is simply no value in a 70 Series. I just think Ronny has been able to make one of the ugliest front ends look decent. Agree with you on the diesels though. Modern 4 cylinder diesels are overrated and highly strung. Will not get the lifespan of the older engines. Petrol all the way!

[@blakebucknall4008]

[@simondva1]

Awesome video Ronny, thanks a lot!

[@fullyarns]

Looking forward to when you get portal axles on this rig💪🏼

[@Rob.Salta90]

It’s safe to say the V8 is far better from a noise/sound perspective. But the 2.8 absolutely dominates it in every other domain. People can bitch and moan how it’s more highly strung but go online, there at 2.8ls doing 300-400,000kms without any major issues. Proven. Reliable. Safe. *V8 owner cry’s in V8 tears*

[@derwinjax]

Such a machine. I’d love to have one of those beauts. Too bad I can’t afford one but I still love watching your videos. Thanks. Looking forward to the next one. Cheers

[@BorisEkner]

12:15 Friendly question. At this time you’ve mentioned the no winch several times. - The track looks like where I am most of the time … There are no trees large enough to anchor a winch cable to. So if that the most common situation, why even think of a winch at all?

[@Sh4dow682]

All seems effortless so far in the 76 Ronny. Probably nearly everyone would’ve thought What the hell have Toyota done putting a 2.8L in a 70 series? Including me. The under engined 4bees have got you from a to b, but have been far from great, and some a disaster.
