- In this episode Jocko upgrades the transfer gears, widens the wheel track of the Toyota LN106 HiLux - two mods that'll make it go way better off-road!
But then he challenges Matt to a drive off in his Solid Axle swap Toyota HiLux on 35in tyres! How does he go? Watch to find out!
Jocko's on a mission to turn the Pony lux into a budget build 4WD capable of taking on the toughest 4WD tracks in Australia! Using some of the best and cheapest 4WD mods money can buy, the Pony will be getting new offroad upgrades in every episode. We'll show you the REAL difference each mod makes offroad, helping you decide on the best mods for your 4WD.
When the build is finished Jocko's going to enter the Pony in a 4WD competition to go up against purpose built competition and winch trucks on some INSANE tracks!

Shauno's Brand new, straight off the showroom floor 200 series.... chopped and extended! Jocko's 25 year old bashed and bruised "pony" Hi-Lux..... Totally different builds, costs and mods, but both totally engrossing and entertaining! After you've finished both trucks and used them for a while, I'd love to hear what you love about each, and what you'd do differently! Thanks guys from Scotland. 👍🇬🇧👍🇦🇺
Hilux will overcome 200
The amount of tips in this episode is INSANE... THANK YOU Jocko and Matt
Mom: What are you doing?
Me: Online classes
Mom: Who is your teacher?
Me:4WD 24-7
Yes funny
Professor Jock?
@@christurner68 and still you in their class taking lectures 😂
The vegemite reference for packing bearings was spot on mate😂👍
Yep, I rolled mine. Lucky it landed back on its wheels because I was a long way from home.
JOCKO the legend, the real driver that drives real 4wds. Love how the pony lux is coming along mate ,now go and out drive all those $100,000+ rigs. 🤘🤘🤘
If jock sees this I have a 106 tow bar in Canberra he can have for a case of vb
second hand turbo
@@rosswilson8402 ???
throw it in the tip mate, cause no one likes VB ,,,,, haha jokes buddy
Think breathers might be a sensible next mod 🤣
Think only the diffs have breathers on the ln106 you have to drill an tap in a breather for gearbox I was told
Need to run vent hoses from difs and tcase up high between cab and box! 😊
Need more videos with Jocko!
Great work mate 👍🏻
"Here's this thing that will cost you plebs about $600, but we just happened to buy it off a 'mate' for $50...and look! A big box of stuff just happened to land on my desk from Sparesbox. What luck!"
😂
Tera Low transfer case gears are one of the best things I did to my Isuzu after I went to 33's. So much more control and not nearly as much clutch use.
The Pony is coming out really good. A turbo would make it better when mudding and sand driving. Bar work is essential, especially a rockslider and a high mounted rear bumper (cut the lower section of the bed) ... but something that i would definitely do is a RUF conversion with high steer, so you get rid of the stock steering system that´s not very reliable. Kind regards form Brazil.
I really appreciated the side by side crawl off!
It’s meant to be a budget build mate
@@betterdenu999 RUF costs barely anything mate, cheaper than mods they have already done...
It's meant to be cheap...
A dimable LED light strip under the bonnet is a great cheap mod. I doubt you'll have any issues with the mighty 2.8 but it's so handy to have good light under the bonnet if you're stuck somewhere after dark. Also handy for a bit of ambient light at camp, makes stumbling back to your swag just a little easier.
Since getting absolutely obsessed with this channel a few weeks back and consuming every video they've made, Jocko's my favourite. Really good explanations, funny and just seems like a top bloke.
I'm sad Shauno isn't doing something similar with Daryl, even though I'm not a Nissan guy
Give it time
His busy with his chopped 200
To be fair, Daryl is pretty well rooted engine wise.
They did something a couple of weeks ago where they went out and chased Jesse around in his comp truck in the Glasshouse....
100% correct. There's plenty of GQ fans out there, and its a brilliant canvas to work from.
I hope you fixed or raised the vent tubes from the axles, transfer case and trans to avoid water getting in during the next inevitable water crossing! Cheap mod... delete the entire hitch receiver tube and weld on some recovery points/D Rings or whatever to the hitch cross bar. Maybe trim the rear bumper mounts to tuck the rear bumper in a little too. Great video!
Would love to see some more in depth instructional type vids on maintenance mods, cheers boys love it
Love it... Jock still calls this lux ‘ the pony ‘ no matter all these budget friendly quality upgrades turning into an absolute beast 👍🏻 Can’t wait to see the pony up against sooty or the dirty 30
The music when they were doing the front end is from fs19
Got to love how interchangeable Toyota parts are!
I want Jock to be a permanent member of 24/7. I really enjoy his knowledge and humour! Shauno and him cooking last week, the best hahaha.
Keep up the awesome Vids Jocko!!!!!
To get that tow hitch box section out now you have cut it, just weld the inside of the box section that’s seized which will shrink the whole box section and also heat it. It should easily tap out then.
Loving the Pony Lux build! Just wondering if you have and if not would you be able to do a bit of a rundown on Matt's rig?
Idgaf How good of parts deals you get jock the haters are always gunna hate i guess its good to have mates in the know. That was a Good video guys
thank you for detail video on mods areas next further to turbo and long-range tank
Absolutely love the driver training you guys do because I can use the techniques even in my stock pajero obviously on smaller challenging tracks
I have to say Joko. I have learnt mor in this one episode, about gearing and driving than the whole time watching Shauno and Graham. Thanks buddy.
Thanks for the feedback mate!
Seriously Jock you are unrated, great build and info sharing - I love the technical driving
Stick a Sawzall in the hitch receiver and split square tube in half. Air chisel it out and then you can use the hitch.
Jocko has taken this to a whole new level. Shaun when are you going to do something to Darryl. Mabye some lockers and his own set of tyres instead of stealing them from Sooty. Thanks for the awesome content legends
Loving the Pony! Definitely like the idea of giving her a tummy tuck. Great video on wrenching on her! ❤️🐞
Build is so relateable as its what the everyday guy can afford - keep the vids coming mate
love the lil yota! rock packing trails has gotten my 2wd through some tough trails. might want to run some new vent lines on those axles, trans and case. have fun keep it on atleast 2 wheels.
A nice budget helper here in the states for the braided brake line is boat trailer brake lines. They come all kinds of lengths and are very affordable. You will have to re-flare you hard lines, but for $15 for 2 foot lines are worth it. Done it on a few budget projects and have lasted years of trail abuse. And they’re sold almost everywhere!
This really helps me in the near future 👍
Here is a easy mod, that hitch you cut off use a electric metal saw and cut in to the corners then use a air hammer and I bet it comes out then you can install a recovery point! I have done this many times at my work for customers.
I think you can cut the rest of the tubing out of the receiver hitch just by taking the the blade out of a hack saw sticking it through and connecting it back to the handle.
On the ifs hub swap, in the US we lathe down the outside of the wheel mounting surfaces till a Toyota Tacoma brake rotor slips right over. Then you use toyota Matrix wheel lugs, and the rotor is now floating.
i reckon the pony needs some boost
That was great what a difference, I've been asking for awhile in tutorials to show foot work alongside driving a challenge. Awesome 👍
Wonder what the budget looks like when you actually have to pay for everything.
Broken down with kings gear all over it
Can’t wait till sparesbox magically send me a box of stuff specific for the 4be I’m rebuilding
@@jg5654 😂
I'm gonna say there in it for bout 20g by the end not exactly dirt cheap
Ryan Wicks still cheaper than 90% of the newer forbys
Jocko you are a natural presenter mate. Love watching your segments and love the old hiluxes.
Loving the budget build on the old Toyota Hi Lux . Its one capable little rig that’s for sure .
I love the pony. I wanna get a Toyota pickup to build so bad haha. I used to have a 1991 Toyota pickup I hated to rid of it but the frame and body got too rough and ended up junking it. It had 287,000 miles on it an still ran great. Had a small lift with 31" tires with rims like yours but mine was white instead of being black.
Definitely need to put the Jock and the pony VS Shaun and Darryl at Wheeny Creek!
Happy to join and have a blast in my quey aswell with you fellas if you read this as Wheenys my local 👌🏽
Had to smash the thumbs up after just 0:37, just for Jocko's enthusiasm!!!
Great video. Love seeing this capable Lux getting modded.
Great see, mods that are done in a shed, no huge budget 4bys but under 10k and basic mechanics 👍👍👍
I look forward to drinking a few beers on the deck and these videos every week. Good work guys
Love your work Jocko!! Man you know how to steer a 4be. Combo of the up grades and the way you steer the big rig, she will go anywhere.
Thanks for the show it's great to see how those on a tight budget or just don't want new cars or parts can learn how, cheers.
Wowsers that warp stabilizer during the crawl comparison was a trip
To be honest, I can't say I like the new style of show guys, I know it's hard now with COVID restrictions and all but I love seeing the trips away and goofy stuff Shauno and Graham get up to. Builds should be a second stream not the main theme of the show.
If you have a look through our channel mate there’s some recent awesome trips to the cape!
Very impressed with the Pony's capabilties! Wonder when you'll do some DIY panel work to knock out those dents....
These budget videos are the best.
Please keep em coming 🙏
The Pony Lux is just like my 92 4x4 dual cab Mitsub Triton (manual petrol 4cyl) :P Under 5k in total for vehicle, rego and some mods = unstoppable
Hey Jocko. Just a suggestion to help remove the old hitch from your towbar, a coal chisel and lump hammer might help to shrink it and allow you to ultimately get it out.
If you´re gonna do bar work, judging on previous events, cheap addition - maybe fit a couple of rollover bars coming off the sliders. Might save the roof/windscreen etc. in future!
Matts truck all day every day Jocko
Great episode. Love all the 4WD Action vids but the budget build with Jock and Mack is one of my favorites. Keep up the Excellent Work! You guys rock. Cheers
5:49 "naturally aspirated diesel" - This sounds like a job for MCM
😅😅😅
Winter in Colorado. So jealous! Can't wait to get back out on the tracks!
everytime i watch your vidoes it puts a smile on my face keep it up 4wd 247
definitely redrill the spring perch’s on the front end to give it a better approach angle 🤘🏽
Hi Jocko,
Just love that you have become a bigger part of the show.
What you are doing to this Lux is just to cool!
Is it posible for you guys to make a list of all the parts you put on the Lil pony?
Many Greetings form Denmark.
Again just love the pony project!!! Keep it coming.
If ya ever make it to the states, I got ya mate. Give ya a tour of the Colorado Rockies and Moab. It is 4wd24/7 all the time. Someday...
Not a bad effort, definitely a decent upgrade to assist the little pony in getting the job done 👍
Jocko thx for the content ,you have the best videos,for the working man,Graham and shano are doing the rich boy thing now..so thank from the United States 🇺🇸
It's not an easy or cheap mod...but a link suspension setup for the front! Leafs just don't have the flex that you would get with links and coil springs - there is more flex to be had at this ride height. Also, since you widened the track, does the crystal ball see fender trimming in your future? I heard a lot of tire rubbing!
Thats a beast man, the old lux are my fav, awesome watch
I bet Shauno is snickering when Jocko gets excited about a new tub of grease.
I, just earlier this summer, wanted to remove the ball hitch from my truck that had been on the truck since 2006 (rust belt USA). I had to remove the entire hitch from my truck and enlist a 20ton shop press to get the ball hitch pressed out. 4ton power pack had no effect. Just saw yours is hollow, mine is solid forging. Probably different removal process anyway here.
I love how your still calling it "The Pony." ... you NEED at least one sticker to commemorate that prank.
Jocko. It's so refreshing to see you putting well deserved work into the Pony . It's about d--n time big man .LOL . You may actually keep up with Graham's Isuzu now . LOL . Cut fender arches and put on flares . You can hear the tires rubbing hard .
I'd say next mod should be a turbo on the na diesel that's in it along w a dyno tune!!! Make it happen jocko!!!
Would love to see a full diff/transmission breather kit installed amongst your next mods to keep the water out of all that fine work you guys have just done! Whats involved ? what to look for in a good kit etc...
Also would love to see the Pony up against Shaunos new 200 series as well at some point too!!
The diffs have breathers but not the transfer or gearbox. Definitely on the list!
What happened to the pony ??
Was good to watch and the budget build was great. Keep it budget and slowly build it to show people what to do and how to do things, and what can be accomplished.
The general public don’t have loose money and sponsorship.. Don’t loose what made you great.
Keep on with the great stuff.. 🤙🤙
' ' To get bogged in places like this to
wreck your car in places like this! This is a single reason why
us aussies own a 4WD ' ' Quoted by Graham cahill 2020..
anyone remember this??
bar work and some winch recovery points
they need to do more budget shows
You should go to Bellingham in tassie there’s big sand dunes and some good camp sites
A nice bit of body artwork to match Darrel's horses.
I'm getting jealous! Here in the states the words "budget" and "Toyota" never go together. You gotta pay a premium price even for rusted out junk, no diesels either!
Interested to know what power mods you will do for the NA motor. What will you do for power mods Jocko?!! Exhuast system/ tune/bigger intake or highflow filter ??.
good to see you doing the bearing repack properly :)
Jocko you really know your stuff.... but where are you Shauno and Graham? The content has changed since the name change. Some would say for the better of course but it’s become a bit like a mechanics 4wd documentary. In my opinion you are moving your target audience to mechanics and instructional videos. We don’t all work on our cars and we don’t have a mate with bits.
We have watched 4wd action for a long time and love it. Bring back the fun and the overall entertaining banter.
Obviously covid has affected what you can give us. Hoping to see more of the old. You guys are awesome.
I’d Choose the Pony Lux the only things I’d change on the Pony lux are LS1 Supercharger
On 35” Tyres with Diff Drop Solid Axle Swap Portals and Bar Work
Awesome build guys keepin it real and doing it in the shed luv it
I reckon invest in a turbo kit or a rear inversion bar for the shocks (I reckon Matt can fab something up when your doing the bar work at Kinsealas Kustoms)
From a pony, to a f****** stallion mate! 😎🤠💪🦾
I Loved the banna on the passenger floor of sooty
Jock is a Legend in his own mind! LOL! Keep growing that red beard out and soon you will be a member of the DESEL BROTHERS! LOL!
Great work! Keep up the mods and you'll soon have a 4WD that no girl in Australia will ever want to be seen it! Cheers and be safe down under! o,o
14:26 ohh boy
jock said "my other hilux" a few times
i wanna believe hes referring to just one or maybe two
but i dont
im willing to bet jocks got like 9 out the back all in different states of surgery ahaha
such an educational video cheers boys
There is no issue with wheel spacers if they are good quality, they put the same load on wheel bearings as a higher offset wheel of equal measurements
Loving these videos!!! Would love to see you do a budget turbo... maybe a 2LT setup on the 3L.. If you do include good video of how to up the fuel and EGT gauge setup.
Gday 24/7 .My mate matt saw you at the Long Flat Pub reckons you lot are awesome. I hear you don’t need an off sider lol. He won’t stop telling me about the camp site
As a German it is quite amazing to see what you can do to your vehicle without registering or testing it at some official place. Guess I Gitta change the country ...
Gotta love the old bunnings flared guards
Awesome! Shows what can be done on a budget...
I do diff and gear box brothers so don't suck water. In bughet type get same vacuum or fuel hose make hose longer from diffs and gear box.
