PERFECT TOURING 79 SERIES LANDCRUISER WALK AROUND

From the get go we knew we needed to nail this build and we believe we have done just that, from the wheels and tires, to the fact that it has no bullbar, a perfectly sized canopy and enough fuel, water & 12v power to survive an apocalypse. This is our ultimate touring setup.

Congratulations on the success of the YT Channel. This current build is well balanced & most helpful. Totally agree the V8 is best suited for Australian touring. The 2.8cyl has yet to be proven. May I ask ur thoughts on a pre fuel filter ? Cheers Gerard

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks for the kind words. Yes a pre filter is something I will do in future for sure.

[@Jason-cx1gi]

I saw your 79 at the Sydney 4x4 show today, it's a great rig mate. I love the Gworks tray and canopy (compliments to them on a great product) and I know what I will be getting when I receive my 79.

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks for watching mate and yes they have a bloody good product for sure.

[@billsingh75]

Good set up mate 🎉🎉🎉 Very well thought of

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks 👍 mate.

[@philg2468]

Well done! A lot of common sense and experience in this build instead of just throwing the credit card at it. And respect for admitting that a lot is about the looks. Love what you did with the winch. Clean lines - looks good and like you, I think the risk of animal strike is overstated if you don't drive at dawn and dusk.

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks mate. Cheers for tuning in.

[@adamnorton9701]

Personally I think ya mad not doing an air box upgrade.. I would look at Donaldson 200 series air box and see if you can make ya own brackets to make it fit..

[@harryridley2714]

She’s a beauty bud

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks mate.

[@calamarininjabeast5866]

I personally reckon the best wheel tyre combo is the factory workmate steelies with Toyo open country muddies. Skinny’s are the best from my experience

[@marklaidler9490]

Hi Guys, love your work! I just noticed that Roothy’s ‘Milo’ has the plates 157 STS Qld plates though……

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks for the info! Never noticed.

[@adamhuglo111]

Fair enough

[@timmarsh784]

Great vid - always commonsense content. Presume steering wheel with controls is stock with 2024?

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks for watching Tim. Yeah mate steering wheel is stock.

[@pete3103]

awesome video mate just a little FYI type into KZbin the brand of your camera and "how to stop focus breathing" its that annoying zoom in/out that you would of noticed as your editing. It's to do with your cameras sensitivity level when focusing ....you're welcome 😉

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Yeah mate, we are still learning for sure. Thanks for that comment it is bloody annoying.

[@Rob.Salta90]

Does the tune now void any factory warranty given working outside of the factory Toyota parameters?

[@SmartTouringSystems]

If they can prove the tune was the cause of the issue then yes potentially, its something we think about for sure.

[@courtneymccagh3815]

Gday mate. With a 2 inch lift is there any mods that need to be done to fit 33’s / 285’s to stop scrubbing etc? I know ya did a vid on it but I think those mods were done pre lift?Cheers

[@SmartTouringSystems]

We trimmed the front gaurd as per the vid mate. And yes they still just touch every now and then 🫣

[@bretthogno]

What sort of airbox did you have on the previous cruiser?

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Hi Brent. Our previous ute had a patrol docta airbox. It was a good bit of gear.

[@bretthogno]

@@SmartTouringSystems sweet. I have just ordered one for my 79.

[@mrsbradpittiful]

Too bad the Mrs had the fridge full of her mid strength beers and won’t let you put some of your fulls in

[@SmartTouringSystems]

😜

[@adamhuglo111]

Still Brumbies are our Light Horse

[@courtneymccagh3815]

Sick sick sick!Push ya chest out a bit more mate good onya

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Cheers.

[@courtneymccagh3815]

What spring rate are the back leafs mate and how’s it ride unladen? Cheers

[@kingdingeling3975]

What brand flares have you used?

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Hi mate. They are factory flares.

[@kingdingeling3975]

@@SmartTouringSystems standard or ordered as an option?

[@seabee167]

Why did you offset the winch control box ?

[@SmartTouringSystems]

There are sensors in the centre of the grille. And I also like the look of it. Cheers for watching.

[@seabee167]

Okay, I've mounted my winch control dead centre on top of a bullbar and it doesn't affect the sensor, so if you do add a bar it's ok dead centre. Cheers mate I enjoy both your channels.

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Yeah no worries mate.

[@adamhuglo111]

They love carrots

[@adamhuglo111]

What? Yowie would grab you before you would shoot a Brumby, Addo

[@bobperrett728]

It’s not the Ultimate it’s not An Auto 2.8 😅

[@SmartTouringSystems]

😜

[@user-cs5hd2vf6x]

U said there’s nothing you’d change about your electrical setup! As a qualified electrician, I can see a couple of things I’d change so that it’s actually legal!🙄

[@SmartTouringSystems]

I would love to know what is illegal please.

[@user-cs5hd2vf6x]

Your power point is sideways & it’s not double pole

[@MR-hu1bx]

It would be the ultimate 79 if it was the 4 cylinder and not the boat anchor of a V8 😂

[@SmartTouringSystems]

😜each to their own.
