Patrol VS Landcruiser OFFROAD! Which 4x4 had to WINCH?? First time back 4WDING!!

[@schoey4x4]

The Patrol could do with the Lokka for the front diff. Cheapish mod, easy to put in and would definitely help overcome the leaf hangers. Just what I would do. Good to see you guys getting out and having fun especially while being restricted 👍

[@AussieArvos]

Thanks mate!! 👌

[@kurtg7285]

100% agree! Awesome work lads, heaps better then the million dollar team 🍻🙃

Hey lads make sure you use a dampener on the winch cable so that bloody thing doesn't come through your windscreen if it let's go 🤔

[@AussieArvos]

Yeah , we should of, laziness on our end.

[@craigtownsend3149]

The dampener don’t work that well mick ya see there’s 2 ends of the cable and the dampener only stops one from moving had a pice of wire cable that snapped come straight thru my windscreen and try give me a kiss and it had a dampener on it.. hopefully they make something better soon

[@tigernatorgaming1969]

Yess finally a 4wding video, love you boys👌

[@soundslikeaplan841]

You should give some thought to taking out the lift in the patrol. And doing a leaf over diff swap. She would be a different car

[@whippieboyz9787]

Will never get sick of hearing TD42 sounds 🤤 keep it up lads !

[@AussieArvos]

Thanks mate!!

[@cancer_stixx]

In terms of air compressors, I don't know if you guys have working ac, but you can actually convert your ac pump into an air compressor with just a few simple air line connectors, an inline oiler/moisture trap and some hoses! There's a few videos of people showing their systems off on here, might be worth a look!

[@mechanic7430]

Any thoughts on mounting the diffs under the leaves? Would give you lift and clearance . Also when your front diff open centres and throws the power to one wheel ,try tapping the brakes and it can help even out the distribution of power to both front wheels. Kinda like man powered traction control.its saved me a few times on the muddy clay.

[@michaelmcatamney9231]

Mounting the diffs under the leaves would give it a massive lift and you need to extend so many things and it would be impossible to engineer and therefore be very illegal. Would be easier with stock leaves and take a leaf or 2 out to sag it a bit but then you would need a way to mount the leaves to the axle so you need fabrication to be done on the diffs

[@HammerRocks]

Nice one boys. 👍 I too hate going through bog holes. I always avoid them, and I only go through them if there is no way around it or an alternative route. My 4WD is not a garage queen. It gets used as intended, but I do like to look after it, and I do like to keep it as clean as I can. Mud always make a mess in the engine bay of my LC80, and as you'd know it's a bugger to clean - especially bog mud. Loving the content of your channel. Keep it up. 👌

[@beauspicer5274]

Love this video boys both rigs are mint but, up the 80!! 🤘

[@AussieArvos]

Thanks Beau!!

[@herbgaming3477]

mount your compressors in the engine bays.dad did it in his 150 series prado. works great

[@killinit4x4]

I reckon send the leaf over axle method, went that way in my rodeo 🤷🏽‍♂️. Love the video guys.

[@tomwilliams5861]

could the patrol get inverted leaf hangers? moves the leafs to the top side of the diffs and means that the only thing hanging down is essentially your u bolts. i know its a fairly common mod on the ln106 hiluxs not too sure how it handles or what geomitry it changes as i haven't personally done it but might be something worth looking into :)

[@bashka5743]

You guys are legends . I must agree the patrol needs a front diff lokka . Love the videos guys i'll see you at Mount Dissa one day.

[@cnc75adventures49]

Put the springs on top of the axles 👍👍

[@leviblenkiron7572]

Good to see you both out enjoying them 👍

[@MattBlack6]

Got an ARB high flow compressor with pump up kit, brand new in the box hanging around. Got 2 free with my diff locks, only need 1. Spose I should sell it.

[@Jackknight-zh1js]

Yay so excite to watch

[@brendanbillinghurst6869]

Should do a leaf over axle conversion my old 79 series had one fairly simple but might need engineering

[@fatmanoverlanding]

I'm not familiar with Patrols (I'm a Cruiser man), but can you do a front coil conversation on the TD42, using GQ/GU Wagon components? Is that an easy mod? But whether it is or not, it's probably not a cheap mod. Another good episode gents.

[@andrewdirtson1645]

Next video: Patrol gets dual wheel conversion (set up to remove for driving on road. And can be easily installed for off road)

[@xavierhart695]

Endless air compressor system lads. Just put one in my car and it is quicker than even the ARB twin👍👍

[@lachlanjewell274]

Can't wait till you can get back out into regional Vic and exploring the high country again!!

[@edwardm-s6640]

I reckon you boys should do a lsd shim install video on the ute, I put a .55 shim in my gq wagon (different diff I know) and it made all the difference plus the shim only cost $8 bucks at the time I did mine.

[@lachyparker5703]

Where did you get that from?

[@edwardm-s6640]

@@lachyparker5703 Road runner offraod. Of course there are other little associated costs like a new center carrier gasket/sealant, diff oil, crush washer and whilst you have the axles out you may as well replace the outer axle seals, oh and shipping of prior mentioned shim.

very cool!! tyre pressure + hi range / low range combination.. can't wait to see the bigger trips !

[@jessetodd384]

Cheap auto lokka or just weld the front diff works mint. Also can u get flip u bolt kit where plate is on top. Can get them on old Hilux. Possibly make something up?

[@wheels8043]

Put ur diffs on the bottom of the leaf pack

[@tristansundquist1834]

So why are the leaf springs under the axle instead of over the top like you commonly see? Genuine question…

Hi guys. Isn't it good to get out of lockdown and hit some tracks. Keep up the good work. MP

[@samyeomans6710]

I’m thinking of getting a 1hz 80 or a na td42 gu. Mainly because in my opinion reliability is more important than power the less stuff that can go wrong the less that goes wrong. Right?

[@jacobchandler2083]

Axle under spring might do the trick

[@1993Revhead]

I reckon you guys should make some aussie arvos door banners for the 80. And for the public.

[@lukepellegrinet8469]

Hey guys great video. 👍 have yous ever thought about modifying the diff so you can put the leafs on top of the diff?

[@twecharclimber]

What tyre pressure are you running? I'd be down to about 10psi in that slop. Would you consider an axle modification and bolt the leaf springs on top of your axles rather than below?
