Rebuilding an Auisse Icon - DMW HJ47 Build

Reuben and the DMW workshop get stuck into restoring the Landcruiser HJ47, it has defiantly seen better days

[@stevesallaussieadventures5648]

Reuben and Shauno need to do a episode on 4wd24/7 two farm trucks together 👌

[@Fitzy6722]

Gotta say mate, what an awesome team you have!👍🏽👍🏽

[@johnhannonHanno]

MY FAVOURITE UTE! Wonderful!

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Woohoo! Cheers!

[@peterkunka2694]

Very nice! I like the stock trucks going exploring and camping because I do it here in Arizona with my Jeep. This is really lining up nicely to go with Shauno's farm truck, Graham's old Nissan, and Jocko's little pony. I'm sure you all already have plans and schedules in the works ;) Cheers! Pete - KI7LIL

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Thanks Mark🍻

[@steventoshack618]

Great rebuild.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Thank you @steventoshack618

[@raybulmer5707]

There's going to be a little 'tray' envy with the 4wd247 mob. 😁👍

[@toyopatrestorations1588]

Great to see another 47 back on the road. Love the tray, looks like it was made in 1982 great job.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Thanks Toyopat! 🍻

[@bobbyb9371]

Love to see you take it out with Shaun (farm truck) and Graham (the old Nissan) when all the stars align. I really enjoyed this clip. Cheers, BobbyB.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

That would be epic, right?! Thanks Bobby! 🍻

[@georgebishop4757]

let's hope we see this and shaunos farmtruck at coffs, makes me want to leave the UK plus the weather all year round bricklaying

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍻

[@rollyb5061]

awesome restore , my first cruiser was a FJ55, now i'm showing my age

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

It's just a number Rolly :) Thanks legend!

[@adrianthomas6066]

It’s good to see everyone bring back these old girls and getting them back on the road.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Thanks Adrian!🍻

[@ubonrat8653]

Great video Ruebens and shout out for spelling 'Auisse' in the title

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Typo error sorry 🍻

[@francoisleroux8981]

What new tyres did you put on?

[@itsfromlawrence]

bring it down to the Victorian High country in August with 80 other 40's.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍻

[@rileysudholz996]

Sick

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍻

[@SolidSnake-]

no canopy and chassis extention? dang

[@Sausagedoglife]

Wow it really came up great. I don't suppose you want to sell that ally tray that came off it?

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍻

[@coreydallara8778]

Just wondering why you went with drum brakes in the front? I assumed a later model like that would have been discs to start with but I guess different markets got different things (we got discs in 76 in the states).

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍻

[@craigtomkinson2837]

Lovely Ep Love the old girls, why did you not replace all the Hoses especially the short bypass one on the the water pump, and all the heater hoses, and you fitted a heavy steel tray why, I had 1982 alloy tray Hj47 did 300, 000ks in it on the farm and all over the top end.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

This will be an ongoing project. Thanks for watching Craig! 🍻

[@craigtomkinson2837]

@@dirtymuddyweekends Ok sorry, love your work

[@joeynonajustine1]

I thought it was Shauno's farm truck for a second!

Wah Kuwi mobile apek tenan mas, mobil lelaki banget gitu Lo.

[@mullerandre95]

You and Shaun should do a trip to the Kimberley in your HJ47's. You'll be cooler though, as he doesn't have AC. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍻😁

[@mervonmcnab6135]

As an ex radiator repairer it would have been better getting the radiator a proper clean out. It might not hurt fitting a radiator filter sock in the top inlet pipe to catch some of the rust particles from the old engine block.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Thanks for the info, Mervon! :)

[@eddiepaul7107]

I used to put mine upside down to clean it and a stocking on top pipe to stop crap when it's back together..done it like that after crossing qld to wa in the 70 no problem

[@MegaHilly13]

why do number plates look new

[@user-xy5uh7kp8p]

I am from Algeria

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Thanks for watching!

[@Janky2912]

Kinda cool living in a dry climate as a mechanic, nothing makes it that long where I live, not worth repairing let alone rebuilding, nothing comes apart, that truck would be needing a new frame for the second time by now. Than again I'd rather import a project than spend my time in an arid area, not to mention you have to drive on the wrong side of the road.

[@joffbar]

You guys should have stopped and seen Paul Cox of Fab Rats. He is also in Utah about an hour from Matt's place. He is finish building an FJ45. Very nice Rock Crawler. Check out FAB RATS on KZbin.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Thanks for watching Jethro!🙏

[@tonyrgnash]

You gotta build it better than Shauno's farm truck.

[@mattwalker6501]

Ruben can you restore mine next please

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍻

[@isaachall3664]

hey reuben, have you ever chopped a Mitsubishi challenger?

[@maxratzlaff8333]

Why would u bother

[@stevenperry4632]

Some people think outside the square and are not happy with a chopped Toyota / Nissan which is what makes things a little interesting

[@Bigsoot7393]

Just buy a triton

[@TheBibleWins]

More explaining and talking over the video would be good. More narration and this would be an even better video.

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Thanks for the tip, Nicholas! 🍻

[@Im_the_bAnAnA.00]

So flexy can't even put the new tyres on

[@Twinkie552]

Miss u on 4wd 24/7

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍺

[@user-xy5uh7kp8p]

مرحبا بكم

[@AbdulAziz-uo1fd]

Sampean bahasa inggris aku boso jowo, Ok.

[@MADagain]

Didn't know "Auisse" was how we spell "AUSSIE" ahaha

[@edwardsutherland5409]

Farmtruck with shauno farmtruck go a camping

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

🍻

[@Flipppee]

Hopefully Shauno doesn't make you flip this one

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

😂

[@AlwaysSearching..]

Baffles me when these shows never fully detail the engine bay before working on it, makes life so much easier

[@eddiepaul7107]

Get your daughter out to help after all you would have helped her with her little weapon she has

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

Absolutely!

[@robertward553]

Ummm, an Auisse icon is a Japanese Toyota, interesting.

[@davidrose2382]

Alloy tray over steel any day,heavy slower more feul ,why not gal steel

[@dirtymuddyweekends]

They both have their pros and cons but yeah Alloy trays are getting very popular lately. Thanks for watching, David!
