The fact that you guys are just coming up to the 100k sub number is one of the great crimes of social media. You guys should be over 500k. You have, and continue to, put out quality content on all levels. Your channel is also one that should be watched by more than just overland or Toyota fans, but should also include lifestyle, relationships, ingenuity, and the true grit required to accomplish what you guys have done. You both exhibit so many of the qualities that lead to success. The part where you were first stating the 3.4 reminded me of one of life's great axioms. If at first you don't succeed, drink some beer and try again!

The only people who don’t understand the magnitude and scale of the challenge in this bespoke creation they are either being spoon fed by someone else or they use a white cane to walk through life. I mean …..who does this!!!? Just swapping out a smaller OEM engine for a bigger one that then needs to be mounted and completely rewired by someone who has never attempted to do a job like that is a mammoth hurdle to overcome! If you think that’s hard try swapping out a smaller chassis for a beefier monocoque that will need bespoke parts welded to the frame just to make the body, the suspension, the larger wheels fit under a camper shell that was designed to fit a smaller chassis!? WHAT!? I applaud the creativity, the imagination and the courage to do such a monumental job that normally would require the type of skill set of a NASA engineer! Who else can create such a complex bespoke design as this!? Bravo!
@@ToyotaWorldRunnersas you're doing a version 2.0 I recommend you look at a _Watts linkage_ to replace the Panhard rods, it's a much nicer ride on extreme terrain as it keeps the axle centred in the frame, it also can have more travel than a Panhard rod. Depending how the steering linkage works replacing the front one may be overly complicated & thus unreliable though.
In high school, I restored an old Chevy c10 pickup with my dad. Small budget and 3 years, we finished just in time for to drive it to my graduation. It was one of the most satisfying feelings and I had never felt such pride and accomplishment in my work up to that point. I can only imagine the excitement of putting this beauty on the highway!
Ex-mechanic who has been building cars for 20 years + built and lived in a van for the last 3. This build is beyond impressive. Followed, I have hyper respect for buiding something "custom" unique and doing a great job because custom in my experience comes with a ton of pain.
Love this transformation. My Father had one of those in stock form. We traveled all over CA, NV, OR, and WA fishing wherever we could. If we'd had something like this the World would've been a beautiful goal... Thank you for this trip down memory lane...
I have had four 4 runner’s. I was just telling a buddy of mine today about the motor from my 1998. At 250k miles, I changed the standard water pump timing belt, but also changed out the oil pump. Changing the oil pump was the ticket. Everyone always changes the water pump and belt but never hear about the oil pump. I tell you that motor ran and sounded like a sewing machine afterwards. I revedl the motor by hand at the throttle body and that motor was so dang quiet and smooth. I have a 2010 and it pales in comparison. We dropped the oil pan and cleaned it out and the pick up tube at the time of oil pump. You could check the oil months later and the oil was as clean as the day you put it in. The 3.4 will run forever and whisper quiet if you maintain it. Again, changing the original oil pump out with a new one made it crazy quiet with no valve noise or lifters . Prior to replacing it you would have a faint ticking at idle, afterwards it was gone and any other noise that never realized or noticed anything abnormal until after the pump replacement, was also gone.
Did you replace it with the Toyota factory part, or something aftermarket? I want to quiet my drivetrain down when I do my next coolant system service.
Watched the full build. That's how I got hooked. 2.0 version should be even more awesome. Gotta get ready for Alaska and beyond. I'll keep watching while you keep the Landcuriser chinook rollin.
Im watching from Wasilla Alaska. Id love to meet these two when they make it up this way. Beautiful build. Ive always loved the Chinooks and Dolphins. Awesome build.
I once had a girlfriend with whom we rebuilt engines. It was the best time in my life. I am glad that you do everything together. It is very nice to see it. It is the most valuable thing in life.
Even though I'm a Cherokee XJ guy, with adventure trailer, you and friends have been so inspirational in all that you have done.. Thank you.. I hope others catch this disease, desire, to roam this world, even if only in their back yards.. you never know where or whom with you may adventure..
This is a idea ive had in my head since i was a kid. I remember telling my brother "could you imagine how cool it would be to lift one of those". One of the coolest builds ive ever seen. You and your friends seem to be some great ppl. Thanks for sharing this.
"I just wanted to express that this build is, by far, my favorite! In all the years I've watched countless builds across various TH-cam channels, nothing compares to this one. You, along with your wife, family, friends, and everyone involved, have created the most beautiful, affordable, and realistic go-anywhere, all-purpose vehicle I’ve ever seen. It’s truly unforgettable and has been on my mind ever since!" 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I did not think i would find something even close to the Free documentary till i find this channel a few days ago. It's great man. So much love from Kenya
What an absolute machine! The fact that it was built in such a tight time frame is also very impressive. Not an ugly duckling anymore. Great work, everyone should be proud.
As a builder and fabricator of off road racing trucks I found your video amazing, entertaining and just incredible the time you took, also having been a previous landcruiser owner for multiple years you've got the right set up keep doing what you're doing... speed safely 🙏
I've had this dream for probably 10 yrs. You guys actually did it! Just as cool as I dreamt it would be! Love it! Thank you for tackling this project, now I want to build one even more!
As someone who has built many ground-up overland rigs, my hats off! Impressive to build something in that amount of time and not have any major issues! Love that you chose the 3.4. Great motor and great choice to not go diesel. As cool as that is, the cost would have been much higher. Great build!
It’s crazy to think that this awesome channel has only 100k subscribers! This is by far the best all around off-road/overland/adventure/cinematic/best storytelling channel in a low budget! Thank you guys for sharing your adventures!
What an amazing vision you had to put this together (the build and story). You’ve done it again. Easily a million pairs of eyeballs on this before the weekend. People need to see this!
This was entertaining the entire time, I’m usually skipping through trying to get to a good part but I enjoyed every bit of it. The skills that all of you have to put this together was awesome. I want one of theses now
Great video as usual! You have some great talent Matt. After watching all of your whole series of adventures, I was inspired to buy some Falken tires for my Toyota. I love them, best tires ever!
Absolutely amazing the amount of work you put into this project. Congratulations to you and your team for the success of this work. I really enjoyed the narrative of your trips. I’m glad you guys had such a great time driving all the way to Argentina. The transformation of the truck was amazing.
Can’t believe how much work had to go into that build. I’m very impressed that you kept going despite all the setbacks and custom fabrication required!
Thank you for continuing the journey my dudes. Very glad you did this video about the build. It's been such a long time I forgot about all the vids and how much blood, sweat and tears you poured into the build of Sunday! Keep kicking ass and being you. Cheers.
I've followed several overlanders over the years and have done my own overlanding as well. What a cool build. Totally understand about working to the last minute before a tour. I did that with my Jeep when I took my kiddo to Tuktoyuktuk and back for summer solstice this year
This is a sick built, I've always loved the concept of taking older vehicles and setting them completely up for off-roading. I am so excited to eventually do it myself.
Great chinook save, these are easily the greatest RVs of all time, I’m building a 71 on a g30, I only wish I could convert to 4x4 version great job I’ll be following and plan on watching your complete build
This is what we're looking for. This content right here. Remember that it's okay to go a little more in depth with some of these processes. Some of us grab some popcorn or a six pack, kick back, and don't skip at all. LOL keep up the good work guys and girls.
Let’s go for 2.0 🙌 🙌 Can’t wait to watch what’s coming through the lens & windshield next. Thanks for letting us all hitchhike on your adventures. 🥾⛰️🇨🇦❤️
All I can say is …..wow. Just the filming and editing alone is a task. I can’t even talk to the complexities of this build….ok I can also say…Bravo! And thank you. I subscribed immediately and look forward to what yall do in the future.
can't wait for 2.0... 1.0 was amazing and I'll bet after so many miles you've learned a ton about the rig, how you use it, and what you want it to do better. Keep on Keep'n on friends!
"Factory parts wherever possible" is honestly so smart. They may not have been designed to work in exactly that configuration, but you know they're made out of the right quality materials to a certain minimum standard that will (most likely) last on the road. And, as you alluded to - it's possible to get repairs/replacements on them instead of having to fab a whole new one.
Gotta comment… this video and build? Was so professionally executed. I sat with a smile the whole time watching. You are a artist and you guys built a piece of art. Absolutely this is the 2nd video ever !!!!! That will go down as a favorite. Great job and god bless ..
Given the distance and the potentials for hazards and encounters with "undesireables" i'mglad you were able to do it all safely. the composition of the video was also worth subscribing. Thanks for sharing.
I wish I had your knowledge and skills to do this kind of stuff -- Wow! Thoroughly Impressed. Congratulations on the great build - and the great video!!!
The video. The narration. The background music. The talent. I know my subscription is 1 out of many, but you've won me over. Jealous of version 1. I can't imagine what 2.0 will end up looking like.
You two have the best overlanding channel in my opinion. I can’t believe you don’t have more subs,,,, it must be an algorithm thing?? I’ll do what I can to help, sending a link to this video out to friends and family right now!
Still driving a 3rd gen 4runner today.... those are some nice bucket seats. Something about the size, perfect for us skinny guys. Great build, hope you take it many places and enjoy it for a long time.
Been watching since the beginning. You have done a great thing. This is one of my all-time favorite vehicles, and the results are incredible. Nicely done!
I was looking your build and i was amazed how well made that truck is mate. Then i was thinking. Here un argentina You'll be doing some offroad or dune driving and then you see some bone stock Fiat 147 or volkswagens gol driving on the snow/sand/mud like it is nothing... But You'll steal the looks man good job
Back in the mid 80's I built the same rig for a friend. But, instead of wasting my time changing the frame, I swapped in land cruiser front and rear ends with electric lockers and lower gearing. With the lower gearing the stock motor worked great and got almost 20mpg cruising. Like you mention in your video, the frames are almost identical so no need to go through the pain of changing them out.
Wow, I didn’t know you guys put together this truck. I’ve seen some of the videos in the past didn’t know you guys made this outstanding.this is the coolest little 4x4 sleeper I’ve seen, want to build one now, thanks for the motivation🙏👍

Wow, I didn’t know you guys put together this truck. I’ve seen some of the videos in the past didn’t know you guys made this outstanding.this is the coolest little 4x4 sleeper I’ve seen, want to build one now, thanks for the motivation🙏👍

Wow you did a great job and what an awesome end result - one of the sickest overland vehicles I have ever seen
Thank you!
What a genius move to use that chassis and that new drivetrain. Parts for that build are easy to come...anywhere.
Love this build.
Cheers! Thank you!
Wow insanely great work! Had a 79 Hilux from my grandfather such a great truck! Looking forward to seeing the 2.0 version!👍
Well done guys this is a cool build for sure :)
