Good video m8, glad you went the heavy duty clutch. I would have done the same. Given mine was under warranty with no mods, i decided to do normal clutch. I did not even have a tow bar. They were ready to try and blame it on me towing heavy loads etc. So they were going to get me to send in info on what i was towing like weight etc/loads 🤣🤣
Cheers mate, yeah they try anything to get out of warranty hey! And even if you were towing, isn't that what they are built for? These business practices are dirty and very shady. It really annoys me and I can't stand dealing with these dealers when it comes to servicing and warranty work, they act so dumb it's ridiculous!
I believe that the dealer should've done the clutch under warranty. I guess I was lucky that despite the exhaust and clutch as well as the modified snorkel I still got an injected arm and censor replaced under warranty with mine. Their refusal to repair yours under warranty is pathetic.
It's a shame Toyota 70 series standard clutches don't hold up to any sort of off road work or towing once you go with bigger tyres or "real" world use but it's great to see there are several off road parts ready to go
When I put my TORQIT exhuast on, the clutch started slipping going up hills while accelerating. Put in a NPC 1300Nm in and that fixed the issue. Interestly the the clutch I pulled out was a near new stock Toyota clutch on a new flywheel. My NPC throw out bearing makes noise in 1st when coasting at slow speed, it's a known issue and its a stock Toyota throwout bearing.
Thanks for sharing your experience Brother. It’s a hard one isn’t it. Do you get as much as you can out of the OME one or do you get on the front foot and go heavy duty before it fails you out on the tracks. ???? Bloody good vid Brother 👌👌
A lot of the wind noise on my ranger was the snorkel, I don’t use it for rough bush bashing so the next ranger I bought I didn’t fit one. Much better. Considering the cost of those trucks it should last a min of 100 K klm
Common problem The noise is gear rollover The standard clutch has a anti rattle mechanism in the The replacement may not Next time it makes the noise put the tranny case in neutral select four gear and left the clutch out If the noise isn’t there is it’s gear rollover Common problem Will be worse when hot
@OutbackOffroadNT Better deal with T.T I had a similar problem with a 2004 Hilux clutch, the problem was insufficient clamp pressure with pressure plate, the composite clutch plate lining glazes causing the slip. My vehicle had 35 k with the clutch out it slipped, no towing or hard work, a clutch specialist rebuilt a pressure plant with increased clamp ,I fitted the refitted the new clutch and the box , no problems 140k still perfect. I was told Toyota to knew about this problem.
I don't know man, might be a bit of operator error in this one. I've had 3 4wd's as my dailies since the mid 90's and never replaced a clutch due to a failure. 2 of the 3 had big tyres.
I don't know if you watched the whole vid, this is a fairly common occurrence. Read pinned comment. Some people have absolutely no dramas with these oem clutches, others like myself have problems.
Gday, it’s a bloody shame you pay a big price for the vehicle then have to upgrade the clutch, don’t add up really, I’ve heard of quite a few having to do this…
Thats a bit rough go mate. I just changed my clutch( newish heavy duty clutch) at new years after apparently clutch damper wasn't working as it should slowly cooked my clutxh quietly. I noticed symptoms to late and replaced master am slave an bypassed the dampner. New clutch in etc and I cause there's no damper all I can hear is my clutch subtle whirring as it engages under my feet every gear change. 😅still not 100% its fixed ill take it for 2nd pair of eyes an look it over before I burn this out. Similair kms done and clutch is cooked never experienced that before
Yeah I only got just over 24 months so voided warranty. The old warranty hey. Bloody cars are no good when they're not playing the game it can be stressful. Im pretty sure im car cursed things slowly play up eventually and then continue playing up lol
I can’t understand why your stuffing the clutch. I had a G60 in the 70s Nissan I used do a lot of water crossings and the thrust bearing used to seize I think in one year I did 4. I now have a Navara 350k and still the same clutch I put it down to not ridding the clutch
Yeah not sure mate, I've done a heap of water crossing lately... but like I said in the video, some people have dramas with the oem clutch, some don't.
You don’t mention if clutch is slipping or not,maybe just had your foot resting on clutching on the highway and got the throw out bearing hot making the noise.Cooled down this morning and now ok.Clutch is like a fuse for the driveline heavy duty clutch can break things if not careful
@@OutbackOffroadNT yeah ok it was just a thought,my son has a 70th anniversary with the big wheels and fully loaded toolbox’s and front and rear steel bars and 120k km with no clutch issues,must just be some faulty clutch’s on some
I think the sad reality is that Toyota knows that most of their buyers will be city/Suburban shop crawlers so it would never be worth for them to put in a heavy duty clutch. It's a shame that the minority who use these rigs for what they are designed to do get punished because of the majority who buy these Utes and Wagons just because they are what is considered "fashionable". At minimum Toyota should be at least offering a factory upgrade to a more heavy duty clutch because it is a joke how something as major as a clutch can break/wear out so easily when the vehicle is driven they way it is advertised to be used. Do better Toyota
Where I live these LandCruiser's are used in the mines, fleets, cattle stations and general remote bush work along with other vehicles of course. Definitely agree they should be fitted with a better clutch from factory.
I realise your vehicle is slightly modified, but your minor mods killed the clutch on a relatively new vehicle? Really? I think there is some manufacturing defect to it somewhere. I personally think it's not good enough from Toyota to use every excuse under the sun to decline your warranty request. They charge enough for the 70 Series, the least they can do is provide exemplary customer service to their loyal customers.
The 70 V8 clutch has and always will be the worst production clutch on the market. If you buy a V8 70 you just have to accept you need to buy a clutch as well as all the other things.

Finally got it back after 2 weeks. So far all is good 👍

Totally agree mate 👍
Stealerships always dodgy c@nts lol
381000 kms so far on original clutch 2008 v8 cruiser!!!!
Awesome mate 👌
I had a 2004 Hilux purchased in 2006 with 36000 kms on the clock , sold it in 2019 with 316000 still had original clutch.
Beauty 👌
There is no power to wear it out 😊
Top video mate, appreciate your honesty about things in all your clips 🤙🏻
Thankyou mate, my main mission is to stay completely black and white about everything.
Absolutely loving these videos, South African and LC fan all the way! This is the exact content I like to see! Cheers👍🏻
That's awesome mate, thankyou 👍
Do u own same bakkie?
@@interceptor7905 Yup, 2015 single cab v8, nothing better!👍🏻

Nice vids mate. 35000km already in less than 6 months. You working the old girl hard.
Looking forward to the next.
Thank you
Thanks mate, yeah the rig has already done a fair amount of work. Plenty more to come!
Toyota clutch failure is very common
Wow 😯 I didn’t think that the clutch would break first, good that everything turned out in the end though hey! 😅
yeah mate. Get rid of that weak factory clutch haha, she'll be sweet now!
It's a shame Toyota 70 series standard clutches don't hold up to any sort of off road work or towing once you go with bigger tyres or "real" world use but it's great to see there are several off road parts ready to go
Just found your channel, being a fellow Territorian I had to follow, plus I like your content, so far only watched the latest vid
G'day mate, good on ya thanks for joining!

That's interstate mate, good to know I'm hoping it stays fairly quiet from here on out...
Good decision going with Terrain Tamer. They are a great product with excellent service and backup. Like the Maxtrax installation. Great Video.
Yeah I agree mate, I like Terrain Tamer gear. Thankyou much appreciated 🫡
Thanks for sharing your experience Brother.
It’s a hard one isn’t it.
Do you get as much as you can out of the OME one or do you get on the front foot and go heavy duty before it fails you out on the tracks. ????
Bloody good vid Brother 👌👌
Thanks mate, yeah for sure. At least once it's changed out for a good quality HD unit, you know you're all good.
A lot of the wind noise on my ranger was the snorkel, I don’t use it for rough bush bashing so the next ranger I bought I didn’t fit one. Much better. Considering the cost of those trucks it should last a min of 100 K klm
That's the go mate, they can be noisy hey.
Common problem
The noise is gear rollover
The standard clutch has a anti rattle mechanism in the
The replacement may not
Next time it makes the noise put the tranny case in neutral select four gear and left the clutch out
If the noise isn’t there is it’s gear rollover
Common problem
Will be worse when hot
Thankyou mate 👍
I my sure they’ve seen this issue a fair bit. Toyotas are everywhere in the NT.
I would have thought so to mate.
@@OutbackOffroadNT yeah they stung ya. But you are better off now with a better clutch.
Yeah look I wasn't going with an oem replacement.
Read somewhere that the OEM clutch can only handle 450nm max which is why the manual HD-T, HD-FTE and V8 diesel all capped to 430 nm from the factory.
I was looking at the door seals and the ones I found don’t fit the single cab due to the air bags .
Yeah the company i bought mine from have updated their website to say they don't fit single cab.
@OutbackOffroadNT Better deal with T.T I had a similar problem with a 2004 Hilux clutch, the problem was insufficient clamp pressure with pressure plate, the composite clutch plate lining glazes causing the slip.

Unbreakable... except the clutch 🤣

Was meant as a bit of tongue in cheek. I should have added at the end, "but none were V8 Cruisers."
I found the best thing to cut down wind noise was to install wind shields on the door windows
Good tip mate, cheers.
Gday, it’s a bloody shame you pay a big price for the vehicle then have to upgrade the clutch, don’t add up really, I’ve heard of quite a few having to do this…
Some people don't have a problem, it's frustrating for me having to replace it so soon. 😡
Thats a bit rough go mate. I just changed my clutch( newish heavy duty clutch) at new years after apparently clutch damper wasn't working as it should slowly cooked my clutxh quietly.

Farout mate! You'll get it sorted hopefully. Mine is all sweet now, decent clutch and away we go!
Yeah I only got just over 24 months so voided warranty. The old warranty hey. Bloody cars are no good when they're not playing the game it can be stressful. Im pretty sure im car cursed things slowly play up eventually and then continue playing up lol
Yours vidéos its very good. I'm live in french, end i'm love your vidéos 👍🛻
Thankyou mate 👍
Release bearing needs replacement
Am I tripping or is your steering on opposed side ? Ha ha just seen it’s your camera classic ha ha 👍
😄
your new clutch will do the job perfect, with factory clutches it's luck of the draw, most are great
Yeah hopefully she'll be all good mate!

Yeah not sure mate, I've done a heap of water crossing lately... but like I said in the video, some people have dramas with the oem clutch, some don't.
Did you have a vibration in your drive line before you blew the clutch?
Nah mate, she was slipping and the bearings were making noises.
@@OutbackOffroadNT thanks
Seen your video driving around the flooded areas. You got an email?
Yeah it's been very wet lately! Hit me up on instagram. Cheers
I’ve had 33” for 10 years on a 2011 troopy , original std clutch. What on earth ?
Yep, my old man has two Cruisers like I said, he's had no dramas and tows fairly regularly.
@@OutbackOffroadNT new clutch on you tube futures
You don’t mention if clutch is slipping or not,maybe just had your foot resting on clutching on the highway and got the throw out bearing hot making the noise.Cooled down this morning and now ok.Clutch is like a fuse for the driveline heavy duty clutch can break things if not careful
I never leave my foot resting on the clutch mate, that's a big no no! I try to drive with mechanical sympathy at all times.

I mean u sort of said urself u shouldn’t have put the factory cltch back in after fitting the exhust
I'm not sure what you are talking about, I got a heavy duty clutch put in. This whole video is about that 🤣
Should have got the auto. 😂
