The middle section is the top of Cut Rock, also known as the Ox trail. I have an FZJ80 with a 50mm lift 33"s and a rear locker it walks up Five ways and Cut Rock, low & slow is the go. Also the gates at either end of Lemon Tree are there to stop trucks driving that mud, I know the gates are not always locked, but if you saw the gates wouldn't you think they're there for a reason.
You're welcome. I had one of those before i moved to brazil, it was the petrol version, a fzj80 ... 3" OME lift and 33", wonderful rig ... now i have a Troller T4 , you can take a look at it in my channel. Also cool WK you have, im impressed with the traction aids it has.
Nice rig mate, I have the exact same one but not as much in the lift. Did you do anything to make the petrol motor water proof/ish? Any info would be sweet.
Full lockers would've been on my list WAY before a lift, tire size upgrade, or power plant swap! FJ's can do great at nearly stock (though, a snorkel is real handy!), but you gotta build it to deal with the terrain. For this, I might've even considered a gear reduction and/or turbo-diesel (no, nothing against a beefed 6, nor V-8, other than low RPM torque). Still, nice rig, and while not driven 'expertly', it is being driven within it's limits, and those limits are being pushed upon. You can be happy with it 'as is', but Diff Lockers,on-board air, and maybe frame stiffening would be on the "to do" list.
It's a shame the driver steers like he is retarded. Nearly rolled it in the first minute and bounced the front wheels into the air, spun them, and belted them down nearly busting an axle.
Is it just the standard 4.5L petrol under the bonnet or have you had work done to it. It just seems to be going a lot harder then most 4.5L petrols I see getting around and 4wding.
This cruiser driver is really good with his lines. Good car too. Gonna throw out a question...do I want front locker or rear locker first? (guessing front but aint sure) 2012 d22 navara(has lsd on rear).
Lockers would save your CV's etc from the pounding your giving them but impressive mate. Must admit I never leave my tow hitch in off road, or the tracks we do would have the rear wheels off the deck half of the day :-)
i have bought all my bolt on's for my cruiser from the states and saved a shit load! Want to support Australia business but won't let them charge me what ever they want for something i can buy O.S. for 1/3 the price. (best to deal with 1 supplier to get freight discount). Still works out much much cheaper.
+Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) YEEAAH this is the PlayGround for the BALLS. Those others who don't have BALLS go play with The Skirts because i am purely a SEXY SKIRTS. :D :D
Hey JBL (Jeff Bridges Lookalike, i am jus gonna call u that till u give us ur name..lol) loved this one!!. which one do you rate higher.. the 80 or the 105 series?
It could be anywhere in the Watagans. The whole forest looks all fucked up from these 4wfuckwits try hard macho men. Must be nearly time to go and throw a few buckets of nails in the mud holes again.
Glad you asked about the pipe, found it in the bush and thought it will come in handy or maybe make some protection bars. You never know when you might need some pipe. It's always handy to have.
Had the front locker in for a while now since then. Rear locker is on the to-do list. Yes, this is where ARB comes from and their products are dearer here than in the US. Go figure!
Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) That's because we as Australians get ripped off on everything we buy here, that is why I will no longer buy anything from Australia they can go fuck em selves, not happy making 100% profit more like 300% profit nothing but scumbag assholes.
@@AussieFourWheelers is the 80s a petrol is it turbo?did you do any mods to the engine.i have the same truck as in the video except for 2'"half lift.wanting to modify mine with more performance...any ideas would be very appreciated...its all new to me.. cheers
@@emmanuelalbert2929 it's petrol and stock engine. More important to modify is lockers and transfer gears for better crawling. Them play with tyres and shock lengths (and bump stops).
@@AussieFourWheelers thanks for replying back mate.It's my first 4wd had for 2½ years now but I recently blew No6 cylinder( had the cylinder replaced)the block was in very good condition and its been bored out bigger piston so I've been told it's not standard engine..its built for touring..just love my 80's series 1fzfe 1993 auto..thanks for the video awesome..
+Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) or using to much momentum and slamming boulders in to the differential, rockers,over torqing the drive shafts drive shaft and so on.If the slop has this angle, no rocks for the treadblocks to grip on, then yes, Using Force or F=M*A will get a vehicle like this to the top of the hill.
L K I don't think that force equation works in this situation. If he was slamming into a brick wall then yeah but this is all momentum and conservation of energy...and also not science. 4x4ing is art, everyone does it differently and some pwople just aren't tht good at it. Not saying anyone in particular, you all know one.
Fuck while I'm at it mud tyres are literally designed to be self cleaning so that when they spin the dirt and rocks are ejected and when the tread comes back around it can bite in more. Lifting a wheel or two is always going to happen on super rough terrain, not enough flex in the world to stop it.
I don't see the point of lift kits when most the time it doesn't lift the most important part of the car higher.. The dif. I mean raise it a couple inches but not a lot, it you know... Looks funny when the diff is on the ground and the body is a foot higher
Nothing like ripping the guts out of machine and environment to massage your ego, this is a lesson for all 4x4 owners on how not to behave if you don't want all our forest tracks locked up to us all.
BAHAAAHAHA, okaaaay. So you can tiptoe around obstacles then, and we'll still try rutting out the rocks with our rubber. Maybe we should install chisels into the treads for more effective outcomes.
Mate you gotta get lockers. You won't have to drive so hard. I cringed when you went sideways. Too nice a truck to break. You'd be amazed what just a rear locker will do. Great truck Thanks for Da vid
these 80s are a beast of a truck, I had one in 1990 when they first came out and then a 1997 the last of the 80 series, brilliant truck
There's a fine line between balsy and stupidity....I think he's on that border...
Agree. As SLOW as possible, as FAST as necessary...
It's a 4" lift with 35" tyres.
Thanks for the compliments mate, appreciate it.
That looks like a heck of a good time!! Great video!

Nice video and tough 80 making gnarly sections look easy...

Thanks for a nice and detailed comment. I agree with what you said. It's twin locked now, just looking at power options ATM.
It's a shame the driver steers like he is retarded. Nearly rolled it in the first minute and bounced the front wheels into the air, spun them, and belted them down nearly busting an axle.
Mate what 4" suspension setup is that?? Looks like the Flexy coils... how do you find them on the road and day to day???
awsome video awsome tracks! and truck!
Thanks mate!
There's 3 sections:
0:00-1:33 Five Ways (off Martinsville Hill Rd)
1:34-3:02 Plank Hill Rd
3:03-4:51 Lemon Tree Rd

Very nice LC80, do you know what lift is on it? ... by the way, you've got some very nice videos "mate" ... cheers from Brazil !
Glad to see you put a locker in...bet its unstoppable now!
It went good with the front locker, but guess what? It's getting the rear done as well, as we speak :p
Glad to hear it...Hard to beat a Landcruiser...I just sold my 100 series and looking for an 80 now myself...
my31and37 I like my 100 cuz the v8 but the 80s look sweet
if you dont mind telling me the year of manufacture of this land cruiser?
what brand tires are those?
Love your videos
Thanks dude.
This video gotta be named "80-Series Land Cruiser with Steel Balls" :)
Is the pipe on the roof supposed to work as a roll cage?
great vid very lucky on that 1st climb mate
Thanks mate, sorry about the music, not everyone has the same taste.
Top video, looking into an 80 series myself.
Thanks for watching 👍 Glad you liked it
I miss Steve Irwin
Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) Hi, how many inches is this 80 lifted? 4'?
btw, good video mate.
Thanks mate. This 80 has a 6" lift. Now has a front locker and runs on 35" Creepy Crawlers.
Floors it on rock ledges and idles through mud trenches..... Hmmmm
I see a lot about lockers but I’m wondering.. is his tire pressure too high? it seems like he’s on pavement pressure which pops him up higher
What is the pavement pressure and what's good pressure for offroading without popping beads in your opinion?
Dobinson suspension with 2 inch coil spacers changed the front panhard
Definitely Gdjiw. He has a beast
Close call! Nice looking truck, pity Toyota doesn't give lockers as standard
This video exactly demonstrates how powerful this beast is. anyway i was wondering, can the diesel one perform exactly like this?
Raymond David the turbo diesel will do even better bud
I just have to ask, what's with the pipe?
HAHAHA 😂 It's just for transportation lol
A nice 1VD-FTV would finish this rig off perfectly.
how much did you pay for your lockers when you got them?
The front was part of compete overhaul, so don't know. Rear was $2K.
thats awesome man. Did you employ a bunch of Indians to do you recoveries for you?
Anyone know what front bumper that is?
It's an xrox bar
just bought one after flogging off the Defender. The fun begins
Enjoy 😉
What size lift and tires?
6 inch lift and 35 inch tyres
Lockers would save your CV's etc from the pounding your giving them but impressive mate. Must admit I never leave my tow hitch in off road, or the tracks we do would have the rear wheels off the deck half of the day :-)
Tough Dog panhard, bent the Dobinson one:p really good on road even without swaybars.
Great video dude!! Ignore the haters!! Jajaja what suspension are you running???
Thanks bud 👍 It's running a 6" lift.
What is the pole for on his roof rack?
Just a pipe from work lol
@@AussieFourWheelers oh haha, I thought it was something for your 4wheelin
Haha 😂 yeah, I thought you thought that, that's why I laughed 😃 thanks for asking 👍👍👍
are you really asking that question?
Why not lock diff?
Why?
that is some 80 , does it have lockers?
At the time of this video, no. But now has both.
Grate vid, nice camera work. Gopro?
Thanks bud. Nah, not GoPro, phone camera :)

is that a 6inch lift??
Yes
Nothing like a 60 series landcruiser
One thing that this guy definitely have, is freakin balls
😁😁😁
+wandile ngcobo If ya got BALLS then Balled it. ;) :) If ya got no BALLS you will get De-Balled by it. ;) :)
+Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) YEEAAH this is the PlayGround for the BALLS. Those others who don't have BALLS go play with The Skirts because i am purely a SEXY SKIRTS. :D :D
+wandile ngcobo And a totally awesome car of course
:)
:)
what tyres is this guy running?
35" Yokies
6'' lift??
angelmarchpr Yes
ALL Toyota Land Cruisers have Balls, rock SOLID trucks.. BETTER than crap range rovers.
what motor is it running?
petrol, 6 cylinder, 4.5 L 1FZ-FE
Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) put in a v8 like my 100 series
top truck the 80
petrol or diesel?
Petrol
Hey JBL (Jeff Bridges Lookalike, i am jus gonna call u that till u give us ur name..lol) loved this one!!. which one do you rate higher.. the 80 or the 105 series?
Lol 😂 They're both pretty much the same. I think LC80 looks better IMO.
Where abouts in the watagans is this?
5 Ways
It could be anywhere in the Watagans. The whole forest looks all fucked up from these 4wfuckwits try hard macho men. Must be nearly time to go and throw a few buckets of nails in the mud holes again.
Half the reason is better than all the reason 8-)
What no lockers?
Yeah, at the time no lockers. Then got front locker and now also rear.
Good time spent well,next upgrade is locker
This is an old video. It is now twin locked.
I gotta ask.....Whats the pipe on the roof for?
Glad you asked about the pipe, found it in the bush and thought it will come in handy or maybe make some protection bars. You never know when you might need some pipe. It's always handy to have.
crack, they're big smokers in Oz
almost lost it.. lockers as every one has just said , but with lockers, u can really slow every thing right down. Play it safe..
True! It's got a front locker since, rear is also on the list to-do...
I would love to take my blazer to Australia some day.
Welcome bud
Always nice to see the 50psi club out on a rally
You must have pressure sensors fitted into your eyeballs?
Try and error and a good bunch of luck! Ha ha! Even my driving style! Ha ha! Nice video.
Thanks man 👍 A lot of people can't understand that 😉 Glad you liked it.
Needs lockers, front and rear, badly... Isn't this the place where ARB comes from?
Had the front locker in for a while now since then. Rear locker is on the to-do list. Yes, this is where ARB comes from and their products are dearer here than in the US. Go figure!

Yokies.
Put a set of Creepys on it and it would have walked up @1.32
Next thing on the to do list is a front locker.
gees ive done that in my stock d22 navara
Cool
as others said, if you had lockers dude you wouldnt have slid down like that so get lockers you MO MO, so how does it have balls btw,,,?
NIC
tough as. massive as. we all know which word I'm missing.
Lol 😂😂😂😂😂
If you don't like them, save yourself the stress of watching 4wding videos and take up cross stitch.
LOL, true!! Why go 4WD-ing if you're gonna drive around the obstacles hahaha!!!
Mans needs to lock his diff
awesome

Fortunately he has that piece of pipe attached to his roof rack. Lockers would have made this all easy.
Yeah, it has both lockers now.
I think he learned to drive in a Suzuki....!
just left of the steering wheel bud on the dash is a button that says diff lock try it cause you make a good wagon look shit
Mate no traction buy arb air lockers for traction
Need some lockers and a diesel motor but still good fun, good onya :)
Ill meik a video about my construkcion vijecals and driving whit my 2020 ford ranger wildtrak on sam off road whit my friend 😎 cheers mate 🍻🍻🍻🍻
Let us know when you do. Would be good to watch.
A real professional goes slow never leaves the tires from the ground and never spins the tires.
So professionals need no momentum, oh yeah, that's when you're wheeling virtually flat ground. Thank you for your input.

I hate it when my vehicle has testicles all of its own.
Also, yet again with the expensive modifications and no lockers. I don't understand.

To raise the diff, you need bigger tyres. To fit bigger tyres, you need more lift.
diff locks and would have got up there first go
Of course.
