Modified 79 series Landcruiser, Episode 79

[@robertmawe2261]

4wheeling Australia is simply the best 4wheel drive segment so far.

[@mohammedmohammed-ns1cs]

At the end of the video i was laughing like crazy, they're getting drunk little by little 😂😂😂😂😂 . Dam it, that's hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@888johnmac]

typical Ronny .. even his rig walkrounds end in the dark ... nice rig Torbs

[@carstereo2493]

Ronny and Torben have one of the best friendships, I enjoyed your banter a lot. Kept spilling my beer because I kept chuckling at your jokes. Torbs is a humble, funny and just an all round nice bloke. This is the best modified episode IMHO, wish you guys all best. Stay safe. Regards from England.

[@MontyScott]

The boys slowly getting lit as the video unfolds 😂 great episode mate! I would love to see a more in depth video of the electrical system as I've just done a secondary battery set-up myself, but this is on another level so it'd be great to learn some more 👍🏻

[@darkhorse4148]

It was falling apart at the start of the canopy 😂

[@MontyScott]

@@darkhorse4148 Haha made for some good entertainment!

[@MarkRose1337]

This is one of the best modifieds. So funny.

[@ronh9384]

You guys have way better rigs and kit than we have available in the U.S... but then you guys probably have way more people that go off road than we do!

[@luketoms2476]

Love how the cover is on the beach and then you guys are in the desert hahahaha love it 😅🤣🤣👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@disturbunce2335]

Thing I love about your show Ronny is that you have a great bunch of blokes along with you. Some other channels bring along their kids or their wives and you just can't say in the comments "yeah mate, your kid is just a dropkick" or "your wife is just too dumb to be able to fart and stay clean"... you know constructive, postivie stuff. Your blokes are obviously mates but they are also professional you-toobers in the same vein as you are. Maybe they dont have their own channel (or even just a crap spin-off channel like Harry's) but they are serious about providing good content and doing a good job and they add value. ITs nice to see you blokes have a laugh but still take it seriously. Thank you for all the hard work you and yourt mates put in.

[@greatsouthernoverland]

I went and bought my travel buddy off the two old legends in Bendigo!! What a brilliant product, they were flat out but took the time to show me around. They are so proud of the product and rightly so its a game changer for us:D Ripper truck Torbs!!!

[@peterpouchkareff5386]

Love this rig. Great set up for long distance travel, camping, fishing, exploring & getting away. Has a lot of awesome creature comforts, really no need to come home.

[@murphtahoe1]

Leave it to the Aussies to produce the Travel Buddy. Something you don’t need, but I must have one!!! Wow such an awesome build. Every time I watch Ronny’s videos I get pissed off that California won’t allow the import of diesel Toyota’s because I would love to have one. Best of health to everyone in Australia! Cheers gentlemen on a great rig walk around.

[@cpscps2679]

I like they come together and shake hands as if each didn't know the other was there.

[@hanserikharper616]

I want to see how the box comes off for work hauling, connections, electric attachments. Trying to design a flat bed for work, drop on touring pod. If he's done that, please show.

[@joshuadodd1426]

Out of all the 4wd shows i have seen travel buddys you guys are the 1st i have heard talk about the people how make it just me i like hearing about the people behind the products

[@isaiahk6246]

Adjusted his led driving lights to not blind the person in front of him, what a legend 👍

[@chadsmith2700]

I'd love to see a list of all the times Ronny has said "that'll be a seperate video" would be a big list haha

[@IKenney303]

new drinking game??

[@chadsmith2700]

Kenney 303 you'd be smashed..

[@frankenbeans1967]

Yeh torbs rocking the surfer joes. Hands down the best off-road thong.👍

[@nzmarkb8713]

Nothing better for the scorching hot black sand over here on the West coast

[@KeithHinch]

When Torbs had his rooftop tent it was imho the best version. Those swags just seem ridiculous. Are they an exclusively Aussie thing? Can’t imagine any other country going for them. Camping near salties in a swag. Madness!

[@treykilgore4734]

Love this modified! 1000% want to see a electronics video showing how it all works and how everything is hooked up! Please! Please! Please!

[@0825Krispy]

Definitely keen on a separate video for the electrical system and install!

[@mickusms700]

x 2

[@shobhitmathur5686]

This rig is the best-looking one somehow. Cannot put a finger on it, just the stance and the symmetry. Great additions. I think we need a Part 2 of this Modified with more videos showing the dashboard, electrical system, underbody, etc.

Would love to bring what you guys are doing over there to Botswana 🇧🇼. The car modifications and awesome trips. That’s life filled with adventurous moments

[@Alan.livingston]

I love how hard it is for two blokes with $100k Utes to say the Dominator winch is an alright bit of kit.

[@KarlEller]

I know everybody likes to bash on Adventure Kings, and they do sell some utter shit, but the Dominator winches are a pretty decent bit of kit, and are nearly half the price of most other winches.

[@australia3913]

You have to be one of the best 4wd KZbinr and have taught me lots! Thank you 😊

[@LoneGalloperOverland]

ahhh man... never get tired of these, absolutely in love with these 79s

[@matthewberry1738]

Thumbs up on the great northerns for an every day beer!

[@blehbleh222]

That joke about the ball room dancing was absolutely the funniest thing I’ve ever heard Hahahaha Ronny needs to learn the steps better!!!

[@andrewxc90rdesign75]

Possibly the best walk around yet. Look forward to revisiting the truck in the future

[@fabulousoffroaddesigns5080]

The G-wagen 4x4 squared comes on 37's. It's around $400,000.

[@vytas5584]

I think my 80 series was better value at $1800

[@jackwalsh1468]

Enjoyed the video, very much. Cheers, Mate from San Francisco, USA

[@AdrianLeviAU]

This gives me quite a few ideas for a build in a couple of years

[@laaloopa]

the station you where on when you recorded this i was cruzing round in a 6 deck cattle truck the house down the road from where you are is a mate he runs it the station loved it up there

[@nanthusvanderlely4588]

What Station is it ?

[@justdowntheroad4218]

Been waiting for ages for this one. Awsome build Thorbs.

[@ryanpleash1]

I fan boy the cruisers so hard hopefully my next rig will be one

[@jasepat3944]

I’ve got the same ARB LINX system on my Ranger, and the preset auto tyre inflation app is a bit of a pain in the A$$, and requires a bit of a hack to make it feasibly usable. While inflating a tyre, the compressor constantly cuts out and only runs in “burst” so as to check the current psi, which gets worse as you approach your target psi so as not to over inflate, but wow it takes a hell of a long time. The hack I use is to set the target psi to 60 (if I’m going for 40), so that the inflation “bursts” are longer, and then just keep an eye on the psi when the solenoid stops the compressor for a psi check. I’ve gotten use to where I need to remove to hose to get within a few psi of my target psi, so while not ideal it cuts the time in half to get the job done. The LINX system is great, but there are a few bugs that have me still sitting on the fence for whether it was a wise investment, but hope it’s doing everything Torb’s hoped it would for him at least.

[@dreamtotravleeveryisland9771]

You guys seem like best mates, funny as hell wish I could come on a trip with you guys wouldn't think that twice !!

[@steveaguinaga3821]

Hood... Bonnet.. Cuz your nana wears a bonnet.... 😆😂 🇺🇸 USA HOOD.... Love your vids Ronny.... Let us know if you ever come to USA overlanding is a big trend rite now.

[@slowboat6021]

can't wait for the G-Wagon modified... love your truck Torbs, you've done a neat job building that rig. like how the brakes and suspension were top mods, neither should be skimped on. LOL best beer, umm Harry's.

[@olenilsen4660]

24:14 - It´s always beer o´clock somewhere, mate!

[@philshouksmith5926]

The Mercedes G-wagon with portals is called the 4x4 squared and comes standard with 37" tires (or tyres Ronny)

[@rollyb5061]

awesome build Torbs, totally love the electrical set up

[@MudducksTouringAustralia]

I love the canopy set up on this thing, absolutely mint. Stay safe. Cheers Steve

[@mickfrederic6284]

Good to see two mates having a good time. Keep it up.

[@kevinburke8070]

Great episode lads, great to see behind the scenes of little bear. Super job Torbs 👍 Keen to see a video on Torbs electrical system please.

[@jimbojones2457]

Bloody weapon Torbs! Love your rig mate. My next canopy will be similar to yours (i drive a dual cab). Have it shorter so i can have 2 spares on the back. My standard tray overhang is ridiculous LOL. Great modified fellas!

[@crezychameau]

I guess the shorter cell and tailor made alloy bed make it way more practical, but i loved this truck with the old long cell. Made it look like a ten ton doomsday truck, it was awesome !

[@Phil_McAvity]

70 series are the best!!!

[@pootfoet]

This was by far my most favorite episode of Modified, Well done man. form Hein Profijt in Namibia

[@4WheelingInNSW]

Great video Ronny, awesome to see Torb’s ute up close with all the latest mods .... those clear top bags are a great idea, got a couple of the awesome Drifta clear top bags and they’re bloody awesome !!! Where does the ‘Little Bear’ bit come from ? We’ll have to do a sticker / stubby cooler swap eh Ronny ? 😆👍 Just 2 things though guys - it’s a bonnet, not hood here in Australia ( hood is an American term ) and they’re not ‘fruit box drinks’ or juice boxes, they’re poppers.....Come on fellas 😆👍

[@rottieshepcalibre9156]

best set up ever? it could be.. i love it

[@terrysmith7740]

Great tips there on some of the tried and tested components. The engine chip seems reliable so far too.

[@stuartpalmer3404]

Ronny don’t let people tell you that you spell tyres wrongly . We spell it differently to people from some other places. Not wrong , different.

[@markholtan5696]

Fantastic video, love how well you two work together and really enjoyed the snoop around that awesome truck 👍👍👍

Hahah best modified yet, good on ya legends!! 🍻

[@lachlanhum5092]

Cheers for sharing this, I have been watching torb's rig in the back ground seeing changes and hearing "we are going to do another modified soon". It's great to see all the new gear, also the experience you gain of all the changes people make is invaluable. How many sets of lights have been used from no1 until 79? Keep up the good work and stay safe fellas.

[@torbs_littlebear]

Wow in the past 7yrs there have to be 4 maybe 5 different types

[@DIESELTECH_ZA]

We're with you Torbs, its called a bonnet. ;)

[@sailingcitrinesunset4065]

42:43 Everyone says the first mod in those troopy style landcruisers Fj40 - 79 series is replace the seats if you value your back.

[@eythanprendergast9277]

As a kiwi, the little NZ on the globe is hilarious.

[@peterwronski595]

Electrical Setup video would be much appreciated. I am looking to setup somewhat similar with a jack-off canopy and still have power controls on both canopy and interior. If you could cover what the RedVision and the Lynx can and cant do (their limitations), that would be awesome.

[@oby-1607]

Now , this is how a man builds a truck. Yeea.

Awesome rig

[@joelbeukes]

Peppered biltong nice!

[@krump7429]

Personally think this cruiser looks better than the main one. Looks pretty sick with that canopy and tray. All just looks to proportion. An obscure question here, what gauge wiring was run from the front battery to the rear canopy? And what are the dimensions of the canopy?

[@sendit3184]

Awesome rig 😎

Cheers!

The G wagon you mentioned is the 4X4 square

[@dalep-i4844]

I have the MTZ p3s as well, great tyre but Torb is so right. My 80 isn’t a daily so the road noise doesn’t piss me off but if I heard it everyday I would probably hate it.

[@Kvasir87]

G500 4x4^2. They’re limited though. Awesome vehicle

[@tonycook2347]

Torbs, why does it sound so breathy when you're cruising? is it the larger air cooler, crossover pipe or something elsle? killer sound and cool rig, can't wait to see the electrical setup vid. running 3 fridges! is seperate fridges better than one fridge freezer? Another great job Ronnie, your vids help out so much. worth every cent.

Hi Ronny, Got a 79 SC in the UK with a demountable bespoke camper on the back. It weighs 800KG loaded but I can't get the rear suspension right. Really bouncy rough ride. OME leaf springs and dampers. Would love to hear what you think would be the best solution.
