Agreed mate, Brando has thought about this and planned it for a few years while he was saving up for his big lap. We absolutely love it too, it's an absolute weapon!! Thanks for the comment too mate, really appreciate it!
Well presented. Great work guys. Happy travels now 5 months on the road!! Only point of contention I have after watching is maybe I would prefer to have the windows clear without obstruction/molle panel/canvas pockets/ Just to keep some more 'lively light' in the interior. Thanks heaps for sharing. Cheers
Awesome!! Thanks so much for the feedback mate, really appreciate it. Brando is actually back at the minute, must ask him how he likes or dislikes the molle panels. I do know he's got a lot of odds and ends stored on them. Good luck with the travels, so jealous!!!
Looks stunning. Great looking truck. Roof top conversation would be great. I bet ARB shot their load when you reversed that troopy through the showroom
Beautiful build and perfect for touring Australia or all around the word for sure, enjoy and stay safe out on the tracks is a lot of $$$$$$'s invested, best troopy build man🍻🍻🍻🍻
@@MudModsBeers Thank you so much for your prompt response! awesome! I want to have similar wheel setup for my 76. Sorry what type of wheels they area? How about front (i mean offset)?
@@egi5434 They are steel wheels and from memory I think the fronts are -12 offset, or maybe 0 offset. Any good wheel & tyre shop will be able to help you out wth the offsets to ensure they line up correctly.
Hi mate, apologies I’m not sure, Brando is currently travelling Aus in his Troopy so might be tricky to find out, I will try though. Thanhs for watching
Thanks for watching mate, I'm not sure how much Brando has spent on the build. However no corners were cut and it's really got the best of everything in it. I'd be scared to ask how much!
Hi mate, Brando is currently touring around the top end, pretty hard to get! From memory, as it’s a 2024 model, it came with more GVM from factory anyway. I’m fairly certain that’s all that was needed. Thanks for watching
I’m not sure Brando has ever added it up! He’s currently somewhere around the top end enjoying the troopy in the country he built it for. Thanks for watching
Correcting the track on a 70 series is a waste of time. Here's 2 reasons why : a) No commercial, govt or industry users complain about the track being different. I drive one every day and I'm on a cattle station in SW Qld. I have not noticed any problem. b) Going around a corner the back never tracks the same anyway. Or is this vehicle only being driven in a straight line ? I'd love to know your thoughts and also just who is it who is having problems with the wheel track being different from front to back.
Hey mate, Thanks for the comments, I can't speak for Brando as it's his truck, however from my experience the track correction is most noticeable in sand, without it I used to had the rear fall into ruts that the fronts didn't fall into, it was noticeably more skittish. Each to their own though, I can see in a lot of cases there is no need. There will be people do it purely for aesthetic reasons too.
Unreal. What a build. I love that it's not another Sandy Taupe and I love that it's designed abit different to the crowd. Awesome stuff

Nice build!! Careful of those floor mats, they’ll eat the paint off the bottom of your doors.
Thanks mate, great tip!!

It’s so good!! Brando is certainly using it to the max!
He’s currently on his way to Cape York, very jealous
blown away, unreal build
Legend! Thanks mate, currently can be seen somewhere between Darwin and the Kimberley!
Lovely build, great inspiration. Thanks for adding all the links - amazing resource.

Thanks mate, loving the comments. Brando is currently heading to Cape Your this week! How good :)
Nice build Nice build! Well done. Would you give bit more info on correction on back track? I wondering how the correction was done..thanks
Hey mate, thanks for the comments!
The rear wheels have a -50 offset rim on each side. This helps correct the track.

I would love ARB flares but they have not been able to supply for over 6 months & cannot provide an ETA
Sweet ride, safe & happy trails
Thanks mate, it’s such a beautiful rig!
Such a great looking build!
It’s really is, he’s planned it out perfectly! Thanks for the comment!
Whats the Front Runner Leg mount part number or size for the roof rack
Hi mate, apologies I’m not sure, Brando is currently travelling Aus in his Troopy so might be tricky to find out, I will try though. Thanhs for watching
So ... whats the damage so far ,as it sits ?
Beautiful , comprehensive build 👍enjoy the adventure .

My favorite car
Mine too!!!
hi mate, just wondering did you do any GVM upgrade? Thanks

@@MudModsBeers hi mate, thx so much for your prompt reply, really appreciated it
are the front flares ARB?
I think they're the factory ones
What’s the point of the scan gauge if it’s not plugged in
Just wasn’t plugged in that day. When it’s not being used it’s in the glove box. Just brought it out for the video
Wo wird geschlafen ?
In a swag, he’s just about to fit a roof top tent, which will be much better
What front mudflaps you have?
Brando's off on a trip, I'll try and find out though
@@MudModsBeers with the big tires amd flares how do you fit the flaps? Just holes in them to fit?
amazing , total cost ?
I’m not sure Brando has ever added it up! He’s currently somewhere around the top end enjoying the troopy in the country he built it for. Thanks for watching
what a beautiful blue colour! can i get the number?
Hey mate, thanks for watching, it really is a nice blue alright. It's a factory Toyota colour, not sure of the code sorry!
33 inch tires are perfect for troopy, 35's are for some indecent conclusions
33’s are perfect for the 70 series in my opinion
@@MudModsBeers what's the color code on this ❤
where do you sleep lol
Currently in a swag. Future plan for a roof conversion

@@MudModsBeers Excellent answer. Thank you. I wish you good health and prosperity.

This bloke has all the money and no idea
He bought a troopy and he still has to sleep in a swag? Can't even sit upright inside.
He's living his best life right now in the NT
Sounds like someone is a little jelly, if you watch the vid young mates got his head around it all. It’s a beast of a troopy!!!
@@seantobin8111 100% mate, hard to judge anyone when you don't know their journey. Thanks for the comment!
Lol he knew the set up inside out back to front. Jealous much?
V8 Landcruisers are hands down the most useless 4x4 money can buy. Do not waste your money on one!!!
Get a real landcruiser and buy a 1HD-FTE
Sage advice mate
another troopy... boooringggg
Thanks for watching!
Awesome build, well done.
Thank you, loving the feedback!
