I'm jealous . The vehicle is just absolutely amazing but the landscape is absolutely mind blowing. !! Great stuff guys , hope and wish I can do this at some point in my life.
And during that time you were there it was the worse weather conditions since the 80's! The warm weather came on the 23 of July and up north it was up to 85 Fahrenheit up north of all places. Thank you for sharing
wow, what a great car to visit iceland and with the tent on the roof, no problem of car location, no bills to rent hotels, you can bring your food with you, that's cool. I have looked to cross the sea to reach iceland, this is crazy expensive, around 2800 euros.
good day Pete, i have a question , 35 inch tires in a land cruiser serie 80 , model 1996 with lock differential , did i need to change the ratio ? ... rgds...
I'd love to know the details on your cruiser build. Engine, Axles, suspension, Ect. Love the set up and would like to make one similar. Great Video. Amazing truck build.
Watched this before and love it.good to go off road and explore.i can't see you doing anymore damage to the land that wind and rain are doing.important thing is to take home your rubbish as I know you do.thanks.
There recently. Awesome! We flew in a small plane around Eijafkallajokull and then out to the Vestmann islands. Love Iceland. Never got out to see the crashed DC3. WHAT IS THE SOUNDTRACK? Love it! Peter Holloway
Awesome video, you just made me even more determined to modify my fj80. I plan to drive as much of our planet as possible, closer continents first until my youngest is 16 (she's nearly 9 :-) bless her) then I hope there will be no stopping me! Thanx
Beautiful country, great Landcruiser, and wonderful video. I have a 1995 Cruiser and wonder where your roof rack ladder came from? I would love to have a ladder like that for mine. Thank you for sharing your video.
Hi, love the video. Do you have any info or a link regarding your rear tire carrier? looks like a great idea, kind of a step ladder to get into the back.
Si algun dia llega el apocalipsis solo espero tener en mi poder un camioneta Toyota con sus piezas ARB para poder irme a los lugares mas remotos e intentar sobrevivir.
Hola, tengo una serie 80 equipada en Venezuela llegó el Apocalipsis, pero no hay gasolina, muy duro, pero es un vehículo muy fuerte y de fácil mantenimiento, mecánica sencilla, definitivamente Toyota en sus series 70 y 80 son para el Apocalipsis, lo único que podría detener las es el combustible, saludos!
Hello, a very nice and wonderfull trip. Congratulations. Can you tell me what kind of camera did your friend use?. Amazing colors and resolution. Hello from Colombia, I use Landcruiser too, is the most great car in the world.
Toll gefilmt und verarbeitet, ein tolles Fahrzeug und atemberaubende Landschaften, möchte ich gerne auch mal bereisen, gibt es eine bestimmte Route die ihr gefolgt habt? Grüsse aus der Schweiz, Patrick
hi patrick! danke für dein lob! wir hatten Probleme mit dem wagen, deshalb sind wir nach dem 1. Abstecher zum gletscher ins landesinnere einfach um die insel gefahren, auf gut frequentierten strassen, um im worst case hilfe bekommen zu können.. gruss aus mittelerde, pete
Hi Pete - we are heading there in 2016 in our 93 cruiser . Where did you get the rear ladder ? Ive been looking for one for ages ? Top video by the way and VERY professional - Graham.
Graham Eastham hi graham! to tell you the truth: this ladder has been welded customized in australia from aluminum.. been there in 1998 with this 1993-cruzer.. but any pro-mechanic/body-workshop should do the job.. thanx4compliments anyway bro!
Schade kein Defender ; ) ... Spaß bei Seite, tolles Video! würdest du mir sagen welche halterung du für die Action cams verwendest da es so "wackel frei" ist ? keep going !
What size are the rims and how is the setup? I mean how much body lift? how much spring coil lift? or is it springs + poliurethane lifts? And is the engine 4.2 Diesel? and is it tuned with more HP? Thanks
+Pete Ruppert you opted for the 5cm springs and 10cm body lift because if you lifted 10 cm from the springs and 5 from the body you would of needed to change the stabilizing arms and longer arms that hold the axles and other modifcations? ah, and is it automatic?
+Gc Cg 5gear shift no automatic (would be better though) stabilizing arms and longer arms: YES of course, also change gear raito from 3.76 to 4.10 (4.88 is better if 44" wheels are used..)
+Pete Ruppert But for off roading isn't it better to be manual shift? I mean when you have to get out of some sticky situation or climb something steep you can leave it in second gear and floor it , and even if the clutch disk gets destroyed it is not such a big deal and it is not so easy to destroy it. But with a automatic if that gets worn down and heatd and destroyed and then doesent shift when it has to and shakes the car at every gear change it is a big expensive job to repair. With the manual you have more control too. or what is your reason that you would prefer the automatic?
There is nothing wrong with electronic devices. The issues are peoples behaviors around these, Just as having issues with eating too much food or staying up too late.
hey ruslendingur! if it calms you down: we only did use roads or tracks where others drive all the time!we respekt nature and do not ruin soil off road! ..and these kids are used to stunts all their life- no worries!

No worries Pete. Thanks for the reply . Do you get a lot of wind noise from it ?
