- Shaun Whale's latest LandCruiser build is HERE! Shauno heads over to DMW Industries with his brand new 200 Series, not even a day old - and shows us how to do a PROPER ute chop!
A chopped 200 series with a chassis extension is the ultimate ute conversion, and the result is a touring MACHINE! The boys at DMW do this everyday, and they've got it down to an art. See just what goes into chopping a 4WD into a ute and extending the chassis to make way for trays, canopies and safe weight distribution.

Living the dream, 40 series, 60, 80, 79 and now a 200. What a cruiser selection. Many blokes dream
Hi Shauno I live in the uk and do trips to the Sahara desert what I think you need is winches front and rear so you have full recovery when you are on your on plus you can pull your boat out the water and hitch it straight up
Love watching you and graham off-road, one day I would love to off-road in the outback
Steve Mac👍🏻
You should upgrade the registration details to my name when its done.
James Chant 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is gonna be an epic build hands down. Graham eating standing his dinner was an over engineered joke 😄😄😄 Thanks for the great vid!
Jeepers! one would think you've got a screw loose up there , but then in AU , It's a Norm esp coming from a Legend . Here we've got different views on how things are done! Love to see the results in your future Touring Trips! Cheers! Mate!
Good grief. That is simply incredible! I have no suggestions but please bring on the next episode!
as an american I need to know why more aussies dont sleep in their canopie things. I remember a 4wdrive action vid years ago where they were driving up the beach on the east side of cape york think the guys name was Jaime or something, from jaime (or something's) touring concepts and he was driving a huge old landrover. Got nervous about sleeping near the crocs so he cleared out the back passengers side of the canopie and threw his swag up. Seems like a good place to throw a canvas zip off the canopie door, whack in a bed roll from an old swag and have your self a raised up water proof sleeping set up, away from the creepy crawlies and the biting handbags...
It's been the norm in Aus for almost 10 years now 95% of 4wds these days have drawers and fridge slides because it's the trend (like a keeping up with jones thing). Great marketing ploy as like you said it makes the rear of the car essentially useless and once your on the road it's permanent. Nobody really camps these days anymore they're just posers that drag along camper trailers or offroad caravans that are setup like resorts showing off how flash and expensive their setup is and sit in the aircon anyway, bit sad really whats happened to the Aussie outdoor lifestyle
Gday mate! I’ve actually drummed up an idea to buy a “clear view spider” mounted into the canopy and to a arb dual compressor then have air sockets mounted above each tire then that way you only have to have a small length of air hoses connected to each wheel! And further to that you can control all the air on all 4 tires or! If you want to spilt different psi’s just turn the taps off on the spider tank!
if got money do that chopping in 200 series
buy king 6 ton Isuzu 4x4 crew cab which carry 2ton back and tow 3.5-ton trailer plus carry 7 people
thank you for great detail video
You’d probably have change too!
I agree. Why would you chop a perfectly good car.
This is the most beautiful thing i have ever laid eyes on. I want one in NZ
Twin stainless snorkels, custom bar work, exhaust tune, front an rear winch, 35s, 3 inch lift, removable dog cage on the back
Australia needs the full size Tundra to be sold there. That would solve the problem of having to convert suvs to trucks.
Nah mate, in the 200 you get rear coils stock and a narrower chassis, the 200 is already an extremely wide vehicle in Australia, and the tundra is even wider again which would be inconvenient for our road widths and parking etc. 200 interior also is a luxury with less road noise and more comfort etc and 200 parts over here are a dime a dozen. Its an all round more capable off road vehicle, not to mention the traction control as well when compared to the tundra
I was gonna ask the same thing. You can get all the luxury options and traction control in the Tundra and it would be far cheaper to convert it to coils than a ute conversion, but they are MASSIVE trucks and there's getting around that.
Would prefer the Tacoma. Bigger than Hilux but not massive truck like Tundra.
Ever thought of installing a bar themed beer tap mate ? God knows i have.
We know how much us bois love our beer so why not highlight it. :-) Rig looks fantastic and Shauno congratulations mate you've earned it. Enjoy
That body cut and panel work looks better then other chops ive seen around a steep above the rest👍
Wack 35-37” tyres on,Upgrade the turbos, injectors and intercooler .3”lift
Don’t miss the 3” strait pipe.
I personally think its crazy. Purely because 200's are so expensive as they are...then to do this to them and i just cant afford it, but they do look pretty awesome when finished. Definitely a beast. If you've got the means and funds and want to do something like this, then each to their own.
A dmax and a chopped 200 series, now where have I seen that before?
Shaun was asking for inspiration. That’s exactly where he will find it
Lol
solid axle up front, methanol/water injection, turbos and intercooler upgrade
Word of the day, Over engineering!!!
As a mechanical engineer, I kept saying "Overbuilt isn't overengineered!" Over engineered is when you spend too much time working out the forces and stresses on a component and design it to be just strong enough without being too heavy. It is often cheaper to just make it a little stronger and not worry too much about the weight.
Shauno, you’ve just shattered the dreams of all the blokes who bought 79s. P.s. I love my 200 but, come near it with an angle grinder and there will be blood spilt 🤣🤣🍺🍺👍🏻👍🏻🇦🇺🇦🇺
Looking forward to this. Now we just need Graham to Chop a Y62 😂😂
Keen to see what you do with the blind spot monitor sensors.
I had a chop and extension done and they got switched off instead of making them work.
This was so painful to watch but I still love it congrats mate she's beautiful
Jase from all 4 adventures is also building a 200, 650 chassis also.. Interesting to see who's is better! Jas's 200 looking mean!
I would have been more excited to see Daryl. 200 of all things 🙄 on the next 20 episode of 4wd247 were replacing cv shafts
nah man, been ifs hate forever, now that its a landcruiser, it's ok.
@@airbats801 true that v8 ifs pulling 3.5t what could go wrong.
🤣
Paint flames on the hood and the front fenders. It will look awesome like that !
Coming out really well . I wouldn’t do that with my 200 though but obviously you have a purpose behind this built . My only request is please don’t stick with that stock silver shade go for something in camouflage pattern .
Good luck 🤞🏽 with the built .
Love from 🇮🇳
Great built,only Aus engineers will approve this..just imagine how many tests that chassie need to pass pre-production, time fatigue etc. I will consider a front diff and CV upgrade.
2.5" sus with air bags, staino snorkel, psico intercooler if they make it for the 200 33" tyres with -16 wheels and tune
It's incredible mate we'll done.
Can't wait to see you take it Bush.
I think your going to need a bigger boat.
Shaun "how good is this" Wale - Top build buddy shoo - from South Africa
Shit mate, I though I was bold when I took to my 2nd hand 200 with a hole saw to fit my snorkel
Envious as hell mate, good on ya
Full canopy and bar work front to back is what it needs next
I recommend a feature that when you press on the break it blows the horn. I think Jocko can help you with that.
So keen to see this build please do more in the future
Seen it all at All 4 adventure.
You should look at a pcor tray they’re really solid and nice ajd light
Well damn, they must be paying you well.
Just came back from camping and the bloke next to us he had his 200 series chopped and it was absolutely beautiful
Big stainless and connect the turbos to it. Also put a 4 inch dump pipe on it.
I know you have great plans ahead for this beauty! All I ask is that you give her a big 4” exhaust!! It needs to sound like a hungry bear when you give it some skinny pedal!!!
I own i chopped extended gq td42 silver top and other then the turning radius its a beast
Harrop supercharger kit would be unreal
This video inspired me to stick new Td5 stickers on my defender today.
This has to be the hardest thing I have watched for ages on TH-cam. When the grinder came out, I just couldn't watch
If he says "over engineered" one more time I'm gonna lose it n
right he should got Jeep Gladiator beefed it up done
@@rubenclark4021
😂😂😂
@@rubenclark4021 🤢🤮 that's a cheaper option but definitely a down grade
You're supposed to have a drink every time "over engineered" is used.
Haha
Awesome choice of car and setup
Good on you mate be proud of what you get in life I know you have put in the hard yards mate, stuff the critics.
Nice one shauno, which ever way you go it will be a nice build. But I think the Dodge Ram 1500 will be taking over as a better option for tourer, 4.5t towing capacity from factory, better fuel economy and it has a HEMI.
Or a V6 diesel 👍
Hi Shawno
Love your work.Not sure about your cooking😀
How about getting rid of that IFS and transplant
a solid beam front end and long travel all around.
Cheers,
Rodney Goddard.
I feel like the chopped half you should mount on a wall, on the side of the shop, so it looks like the truck crashed through the side.
Make the rear bumper an air tank for airing up tires faster
I think on such a posh and powerful vehicle, the obvious mod would be go faster stripes! They make everything better.
... and airbrushed horses with an 80's theme.. Shauno
Looking forward to see this progress
I gather the Tundra is not available in Aus? It would seem importing one would be cheaper than chopping and fabricating on a brand new vehicle. Either way I'm excited to see how it turns out.
Can you reinforce the side storage door and make into a step? Also a few horses down the side wouldn’t look out of place... 😄
Congratulations, money is there to be spent
All black accessories would look tough as
Solid front axle
i have to agree with shorno thos 200 series cruisers are beasts
This is so cool! You don’t see this kinda stuff in Canada
Build a completely independent refrigerated draw... or an ice chest drawer to store those big fish mate haha! They might be terrible ideas, I'm a few beers down haha.
Excellent video!
Solid axle swap!!
Congratz bro...cant wait for see the end product.
Hi Shaun. Did you consider the Ford F 250. With the big Diesel engine. Everything would be factory Lots more power and torque
Shawno should put dual snorkle on it and a 4 inch exhaust
Dual exhaust up behind the cab 👍👍
4:41 lil moan
haha
Hahahaha was not expecting that 😂
what a beaut!!! from Kenya with love.....and a question shauno!!! when are you guys gonna make an African outback trip???!!!!!!
Would love to one day! Shauno
@@4WD247 ooh this will be Massive guys... I've discovered the diversity of Australia without even being there....!!! Keep up the good work guys!!!
Also can you do some episodes on the boat and trailer if how hard are you going to go with it and keeping the boat on the back is there anything you need to do to the boat trailer to make it four wheel drivable
That looks really good. I never knew how they made those till now
Congratulations on your new purchase. I’m curious to see how you deal with its weakest link, being its ifs. I’ve seen many 200s break their cvs, including the drifta 200 (I think it was called) twice. The heavy v8 does not help the suspension either.
I’ve yet to find me someone that can come up with a super strong and safe cv that will be at least as good as a live axle.
Given how tough you drive your trucks, a compliment btw, I really want to see how you solve this problem.
If you do solve it then I may be prepared to swap my gu for a 200. Until then, I’ll continue enjoy watching your videos.
I have a question, why didnt you leave some space behind the rear seats for in-cab storage? Also did you move rear seats back for extra leg room?
Nice build 👍
solid axle the front too and put a 6 inch lift on.
HOLY MOLY THATS AMAZING
Good job well done 👍
game changer!!!!!
Love your work and the build keep it up boys
35 MT 3' lift rear winch just for starters
Why did you go canopy on a tray and not just a custom canopy bolted to axle? Cheers
Could you fit a low profile pop up tent on top? It would do away with the requirement for a Swag.
That would be cool. Shauno
Are you going to convert the front to a solid axle setup?
Do they chassis rails get treated inside? Looks like a lot of surface area for rust to form between the box sections to the chassis?
They sure do. Rust proofing is not just in the chassis, but also in the rear wall. Shauno
What’s the number plate gunna be? Something100 to go with the theme of shaunos chopped vehicles
Shauno,
Can you purchase parts of them from the chopped rear sections , after rear jack cover removable panel
How many times did you have to recharge the drone to get the shot of the boat being reversed down your curved driveway? 😉
Any updates on this? You're killing me!
I was wondering to know that creating 200 like Troopy by chassis extension, is it a good idea? Special if you want overlanding and you need more space.
Like always best choices
Extremely amazing beast
Sic as Shauno! 🤘
Hey, Shauno's! Just wondering mate if the DWM have done 150 prado converted to a dual cab? Thanks mate.
Wondering how much a chop and build a try would be?
Lavoro magnifico.
You wouldnt want to change your mind halfway through😂
13 years ago I bought my hilux, I still cringe thinking about when I cut the brand new bumper to fit a bullbar. I can't fathom chopping a new body
What’s the budget for a build like this? As in on top of the purchase price of the new vehicle?
The only part that bothers me is the rust proofing in all the areas you can't get to after welding .At the factory every part is covered in the dipping process, where as with this build it will only be where the spray gun can get to .
Wanting to know how much the chop has cost you as wanting to do it to my 80
3 inch lift kit with gaint tires and turbos
