Love the build and the vids, watched from the start! just some observations: Handles like a drunk snail, need to get more weight forward, or rear axle back - spare tire on bullbar? RTT over cab? But mostly NEED to lower tire pressures significantly for sand, you had no bag/squish. 10-15psi and if youre a nervous nelly get some bead locks/fandangled rims with bead grip. 🤘 look forward to seeing this thing get to Tassie😎 Peace!
Hey mate, agreed that it handles much worse with a canopy setup. What do you mean spare tire on the bullbar? Roof top tent over the cab isn't an option. It needs to be mounted separately to the canopy and there would be too much overhang from the roof only. Tires were down to 16PSI, I think beadlocks would be a good option! Cheers mate, hopefully we'll get down there in the next few years!
Nice job, dreams mate! I was enjoying your content with music that isnt the classic garage guitar rock that every 4wd channel seems to think is absolutely essential but i guess its here too haha. nah seriously nice work!
Hey mate, I've wondered what sort of build cost or value you would estimate on the cruiser, absolutely love what you have designed and built , cheers Phil 👍🏿
Gday mate what cad drawing app do you use because I’m trying to build my own 40/80 and I don’t know how to use cad and want to start learning how to use cad to move on from cardboard
Holy crap they gouge on fuel over there. Not sure how us and aus dollars compare right now but can't be 4 to 1. Worst gas price in the statesis not even close to that. Not even diesel. $4.25 a gallon for the worst diesel. Holy cow.
Glad this guy built an expensive land cruiser and is actually using it.
Thanks mate, gotta put it through its paces!
Isn’t that the Fj I saw him building on this channel a year ago? Wow. I like it.
Correct!
Mate, what a trip so far. Can't wait for the rest. Also keen to see what shenanigans you got up to with TJ and Mac recently.
Cheers Brian, hope you enjoyed the shenanigans!
@@DesignedandBuilt I did indeed mate. That hill climb was something different.
Great trip buddy see you soon 👍😊

Country was unreal, add it to the list!
Fully sick

Haha thanks mate, music is by far the hardest part of these videos! I've dipped into every genre to keep everyone on their toes!

Hey mate, if you paid a shop to do this about 250K including the labor! Cheers
OOTG!!
Wondering what sort of winch your running Richard?
It’s an 8274 warn high mount mate
Laughing at them ripping on old mates induction.
Induction is #1 hahaha
Gday mate what cad drawing app do you use because I’m trying to build my own 40/80 and I don’t know how to use cad and want to start learning how to use cad to move on from cardboard
I use Solidworks mate!
@@DesignedandBuilt thank you
No max tracks
Bros couldn’t have gone slower on the sand
We were carrying a few sets in the convoy!
I'm curious you don't believe in sand flags on the dunes
Should have had one in hindsight!

Haha yep! Can get expensive in remote areas!
Sand that soft is hard on your gear 🔩and pocket 💸 🛢⛽⛽ when your on a long road trip
It certainly is!
