“Watch that little pumpkin kid you’ll smack him in the head with it” old Burto is one of the best things to happen to your channel 😂
For anyone that's fitting there own hyperflex radius arms, its much easier to fit the diff end first then the chassis end :)
When you’re so bogan you need subtitles...
It's easier if you undo the radius arm bolts and not the nuts. The nuts have 2 raised nipples that lock into the bracket making them a locknut.
It was great to meet you all (Tyler, Demi & Nick, as well as Shad) at the Sydney 4x4 Show yesterday (Sat). The 80 looks awesome in person. 👍 Nick's comments continues to crack me up - Eyemometer 🤣
That Nick is one🤣🤣👍👍 The 80 looks great, looked it over yesterday great job guys
Thank you!
Your neighbours must love you
Must be wheel aligned afterwards Tyler no ifs or butts mate. Will definitely scrub tyres if you go by measuring alone.
Haha!
Hi Carla hope you are feeling better very soon and just to let you know love the last body suite in this video
Piss everyone off and put in a Barra Turbo 😂 Simply love this channel. Lotsa love from South Africa 🇿🇦
G'day guys, wow the Cruiser looks awesome... I prefer black wheels on a white vehicle, but the bling these wheels give do look awesome. Nice lift. The GQ's and 80 series 4wds are IMO the cream of the crop. You have created some nice 4wds. Well done !!! 👍.
How good is Katie looking 😮
Burto and his (apprentice) are true blue 💙 legends!! What I’d give to have a couple of mates like them!!
Great vid as always guys, couldn't make show this yr due to family and work commitments, but 80 looks great in the vid, cant wait to see it on the trails👍
Lets see the swerve and brake tests when fully loaded as per usual Engineering tests, that would be a good video.
He did it with the gu, same car, same suspension.....
I have already done this video on my GU patrol, swerve and brake tests filmed. Has the same set up
@@TylerThompson90I thought the new engineering you could only go 33 for tire size. Your mate i just forgot his name the one with the chopped gq is only engineered for 33.
@@brendannunya77 Different states have different laws, in NSW you can engineer 35's
Rims are mint mate 👍so much better than black 😊
It looks sick!!🔥🔥 And I'm with you on polished over black rims.
Looking great folks, makes me think an 80 isn't such a bad idea after all. A few minutes on the 80 group will sort me out!
You guys are such a fun team to watch. Love the progress of the 80 Series. I'm with you with black wheels Tyler - not a fan. I also have one of those eyomometer that Nick has but mine is broken, I think. 😁
Looks great guys. the machined alloys are so retro, however absolutely suits the car
The mechanic English it's just epic 😎 and his job too
Awesome work guys!!
Bravo! Awesome rig Guys.
Luving birdo one liners - hope he’s on more eps
Been looking forward to these updates! Lookin good team!
Best 4WD Ever Built!
a standard front bar and high mount would really look great with the sunvisor!
Looking mint !
Well done, 80s looking good.🤘
Cool transformation 👍👍
That’s one sick 80 mate!🔥 Youse should keep the fz and turbo charge it? Would be a sick project💯
Awesome Ep guys,
panhard bar you measure from tire or wheel or whatevers easy to the frame on each side and adjust until both sides are the same and the axle is centered
Mean build brother.
That feisty Lady's got one sweet looking beast 🤘🤙👍
Such a transformation, come up so neat. Love it 👍👍🤠
Cheers mate
Moog (Mighty car Mods) calls cordless impact guns dak daks (dack dacks?). He grew up on a cattle station. He once asked his Mom for advice, and she told him to use a dak dak and just send it! You guys have some imaginative slang lol.
Well yeah, it's not quite a full ugga dugga, so dak dak makes sense.
If I remember right, on those cruisers you undo the bolt and not the nut. Nuts tend to grab coz the have teeth on em. (I think) 😅
Only on certain models Nick said, these ones were flat
Looks smick 😊mate .. he’s good on the tools !!
Absolutely stunning ❤
Should be good with all that gear on it, love the wheels. I've bought stuff from allfourx4, great to deal with.
at 25:04 the red dot on tyre should be at the valve location, its the indicator for lightest part of tyre
Great to see you guys at the show and say g'day. When are you going to start using spring rubbers??? Take the hammer off Nick. Love the EP. Love the disclosures. Good to see you guys doing this as most would do - in the driveway - realistic
Cheers mate 👌
Really loving the look of this rig. I'd even go as far to say id prefer this over Sam Young's bigger isn't always best.
On another note seems like install went heaps quicker on the 80 compared to the gu, Toyota easier to work on
The 80 is the best looking cruiser imho, ahead of the current Prado. Good on ya for finally getting a proper fourby 😆
It looked bloody fantastic too
Thanks!
Looks great, sounds like it needs an LSA swap 😉
Tyler please ensure Burto remains in the upcoming episodes his comedy is second to none 😂 " You have the neck of a brown snake brother" 🤣🤣🤣
Hey mate, love the look of the 80. 👍🏼 good work.
Thanks mate
You know that the nuts on the radius arms shouldn’t be undone, the bolt side should be undone as the nut has teeth that bite into chassis mounts 😉
Need more 80 videos
Wow epic Guys!!! 🔥🔥🔥🧯🧯🧯
demi, 5.35 mins in. "can you give me a rub down" 🤣🤣
Cool episode the 80 is looking great. Really wish I could have made it to the show. Oh well next year haha thats what I said last year.
Yep. Bloody amazing 👌👍
I know I shouldn't laugh at bertie making fun of your pumpkin kid but I did...always fun videos guys...love these..😅
looks very nice
Clean! Damn! Nice vid!
❤❤❤روعه عاشت يدك يا بطل وتحياتي للجميع من العراق
Never to big 😆 some great quotes in this one haha
She's becoming a beauty!
Looking good guys. Hey Nick, that little pumpkin kid could be taller than you in a couple of years😂
Nicks side comments are gold😎👍 keep up the great work.
Im in the process of fte swapping my fz 105 the only swap worth doing the old fz was getting 21 per hundred grandpa spec driving around town like miss daisey
See you in Melbourne buddy
Love it💪
haha....doing it on the floor is real hard....says the site supervisor holding the camera....
Undo the bolt on the radius arms. Not the nut. The nuts have little raised bumps to lock them in. Thats why they were so hard to undo
Only on certain models Nick said, these ones were flat
@TylerThompson90 I'm surprised, every 80 and 105 iv done have all had them.
Why doesn’t that short fella just make his own channel, really knowledgeable with the previous videos
Mmmm nice rear brake proportion valve relocation kit ... and you wonder why you keep locking the front wheels in the wet lo..l
Love it
Its beautiful truck...
Hey Tyler Thompson all great what you are doing but can you do a simple video on camping etiquette a lot of places are getting shit down due to people raiding the bush for timber leaving fires going etc. also maybe explain that for touring you do not need lift kits tyres
Looks the goods
YET another Sunday morning ritual of maccas breakfast and a great TT vid.
THANK GOD the qualified mechanic is present to go over and ensure you had all the proper parts and furthermore, to ensure you guys have your 💩 together and in order...as was starting to worry for a sec when she wasn't around.. 😁
I noticed that the most critical parts were specifically designated to the qualified mechanic at 25:00 with the torque tightening of nuts..and the touching up the rims. 😁
Oh at 15:00...heres boofhead squezzed up under the four-wheel drive with no room whatsoever trying to fit the bars to then 15 seconds later at 15:15, heres TT talking exactly about the situation of confined spaces where if you don't have a hoist at home this this is how you do it..ALL whilst looking over your right shoulder to see there is 2 brand new red things namely - car ramps that someones forgotten about 😊😁😂 haha
Only complaint this week is still...
No bop bop bop,
No weather/temp report
other than that...another awesome vid TT. 👍👍👍
🍺🍻
Thanks mate!
Lookin good...😊
Best build series. I couldn’t image the 1fz on the 35s would be any worse on fuel then the TB48 on 35s ?
Yeah uses a bit more then the TB48
Gday, only my opinion but I glad you didn’t go black rims, they make any car/4wd look dirty and shit, top build mate, cheers
I wish you could mod trucks like we can in the USA and be road legal, and I wish we have your diesels 🤣 that being said I’ve got 35s on my 80 I’m about to go to 37s or 39s haven’t decided it gets up and goes just like stock with a set of 5.29 gears lol
What lift did you choose to run 37s? I'm looking into that project but with the videos I've seen the lifts are a mixture of different kits.
Good stuff Gentlemen, Off the track query....When you do mods like this, especially DIY style...do you have to get the vehicle certified afterwards from some kind of a regulatory body? Planning on moving to Australia latter part of the year, I too work on my rigs both 4x4 and enduro bikes. Where I am now, we get pulled over for having heavy mods...even lifts, larger wheels and things like bull bars, auxiliary lighting like spotties, lightbars are frowned upon
Cheers mate. All mods have to be within the guidelines of the modification laws of the state you live in within Australia. All this information is online, there are certain things you have to have a professional do but a lot of things can be DIY.
@@TylerThompson90 Thanks for the prompt response Tyler. This is great news! Have a good one mate!
Do you not need to balance bead lock wheels ??
No anti seize on the bolts... ummahhh
You need a TOUGH AS floor mat. Aussie made good for sliding under your truck.
You guys are hysterical, love the dirty comments haha
Nice build, but the gu tb48 is still king 🤴
looks great what did you do about balancing the wheels ?
I haven't balanced the wheels on any of my 4wds, I find they drive quite nice as is. No wobbles or anything
I will stick to my bfg 265 ko2 thanks.
What size spacer did you use in the beadlock ring?
I just asked dynamic wheel co to send the matching spacer, not too sure on its thickness
How much is the 3” kit from superior ? Did you have to pay looking at getting one
3 inch hyper flex kit with remote shocks and all the arms etc is like 7K
That's a lot of work your doing to still end up with a Toymota at the of it
The 80 looks awesome 👍 better than the GU and GQ combined must be all those round curves she's got at least now there's one good 4WD at your place. Your neighbours must be patient with you
Every day banging and clanning from the car port 4WDs all over the front yard camper trailers all over the place and now an engine swap on the way good grief wot next cheers legends ☺️
I hope you offered ear plugs to the boys,? 😂 Come on Tyler, you obviously never played death metal drums😂😂😂
Great Vid.... $$$$$
How much was the lift ?
Wouldn't been better to do the wheel align when new wheels fitted ? What about the balancing of the new wheels ?
As far as I am aware it doesn't make a difference doing the alignment with or without wheels.
We don't balance the dirty life wheels, I find they drive pretty nice as is
After watching all your videos, is the patrol or 80 better for heavy Offroad and reliability?
80 hasn't been off road yet mate
@@TylerThompson90 I know brother, I figured you or your mates had some insight on the better platform, I am about to pull the trigger on one I just can't decide.
@@Moretrailsmorecamping I own both, 80 is the better offroad vehicle and the GU is the better road/towing vehicle. But, that's in modified form.
In stock form, lift and tyres only, you get more for your money, with a GU, especially while these utubians are running up 80 prices with these sponsor paid for builds.
What’s with the NOGUD plate on the front?
Was in the garage, just had it sitting there in the video
@@TylerThompson90 arrrrrr ok I thought it mite be because you all say no good. It was just short for that lol
Does Demi reverse park at the shopping center😂
How’s the baby doing
Hey mate who is engineering them for 35’s?
Same guy who did the GU, Signatory engineering in Tamworth
Demi's face tells me this wasn't a we decision as she already has trouble getting into the cruiser as it is 😂😂😂😂
You guys should of went to Maccas and used his shop.
Oh and the rig looks awesome also
EXH62M
Ex Hubby's 6.2 Duramax Manual?
As there is no real point in 3" lift, 35"tyres or beadlocks, for school runs & shopping, you should have left it 2", 33"" to show that you can do 99% of tracks without $15 - $20k worth of suspension & wheels/tyres
Yeah but sponsors want you to show off their flagship gear, not the every day boring stuff (that makes up like 90% of their sales). I would have liked to see it as more of a "budget" build too.
We just do what we want to do really, what keeps us happy and enjoying the cars we build and content we make.
I get that@@TylerThompson90 & evemtually I could see it being built to this standard, but I think it would have been nice to see
