Just fantastic Richard, well done my friend, the truck and build runs rings around Patriots build, you and your mates should be so proud of what you've accomplished mate. Seeya Rob
Cheers Rob!
Well done mate. So much hard work, and so worth it. Look at the machine you've created. You've definitely raised the bar. And doing it out of your garage rather than a fully equipped workshop just amplifies the accomplishment. Well done again, legend.
Thanks Brian, much appreciated!
Such and awesome project man. Continue to be blown away with how much you’ve bitten off and managed to sort out. Bring on the touring episodes
first class job , well done.
Try using a size 5 cup when welding ally with about 12-14 CFH. That size 12 gas lens cup you have won’t be helping. and the general rule of thumb is 30amps per MM thickness of material give or take. Nice work mate 👍🏼
Cheers Keiran, I'll get a #12 next before I do the canopy!
Size #5 cup mate, I think you made a typo! Keen to see the canopy build 👌🏽
Hats off to you Richard, what a build 👍
Well done! I'm sure your proud to have designed, built and own her!
Thank you!
Great work again Richard Excellent detail of the build.
Thanks James :)
Extremely impressive
Amazing job!!! I love the black and sandy torpe combo and I am just so stoked for you mate 👍🏻 Well done 👍🏻
🙏🏼
Super impressed mate, all that hard work has paid dividends in the end result
Thanks Andrew!
Looks very good Richard. If you want a bit of texture on your console Raptor can be your friend there. Depending on how you spray it you can achieve a smoother to rough texture depending on what you're looking for.
Cheers Jason, yep maybe a bit of texture would have been mint! next time I spray it...
The FJ 45 was my first true love of 4X4s back in the mid 70s. The Willys (both the pickup and the wagon) would go on to claim the spot permanently a few years later. I currently own a 1963 Willys J3000 Gladiator. It spent its first life as a Nebraska state parks truck. The cab has zero rust, not even a ding in the sheet metal. It now has a Chevy 350 with Edelbrock manifold and 650 four barrel. The tranny is a turbo350 custom built by a transmission company that builds rock crawlers as a part of its business. It has a Mustang tilt steering wheel with all new braking system including disk breaks up front. I'm looking for a plow to make it my winter plow truck. How do I spell Happy Camper? 1963 Willys Gladiator.
So cool!
So awesome mate, looks absolutely mint
Cheers Riley!
Great build. I said it many episodes back that its going to boost creep with that rear housing. Dyno video coming soon lol.
Cheers Troy… watch this space hah
super inspiring job mate! so keen for some driving vids
Thank you!
Awsome job mate.
🙏🏼
Awesome build mate, super impressive!! This vid series inspired me to buy a FJ45, vid on my channel of me getting it!
Thanks mate, your build looks mint!
Top job mate.
Thank you!!
This thing is insane! Headliner and carpet/ rubber floor is a must to really bring it all together, one thing I would change is that snorkel head! Looks so out of place and with your tig skills I think you could make something better to put on it 👌🏼
Thank you! Yeah can’t wait to get some headliner and carpet in there for sure. I like the old school look on the 40 series!
Hey Brother, loved all your vids on the build and now adventures.
I have an 80 series LC with a XR6 turbo engine with the ZR6 gear box but ive been having trouble with the transfer case, what transfer case did you install?
I used a 79 series transfer case!
Any thoughts of adding in sound deadening in that center console? might be a hollow box that could get loud with drivetrain and exhaust sound..
That’s a cracking idea, added to the to do list!
Not sure if its been asked, But curious as to why you didn't run your exhaust out the inner guard like a turbo 80 series or HZJ75? I thought there would be tons of room there and you could route it back in over the chassis behind the cab?
I really wanted to keep it inside the rails to protect it. I just feel like going down the outside is more prone to getting bashed around on rocks etc. Definitely an option if this way ends up being too hot....
Loving the build mate! Just curious if you have much of a gap between the centre console fridge and the back wall of the centre console itself? I've had fridges over heat by not having enough of a gap for heat transfer from the condenser. I'd hate for your lemon squashs to get hot 😂😉
Haha that would be a pain. The centre console is essentially hollow around the fan area of the fridge! I’ll definitely keep it in mind and monitor it!
@@DesignedandBuilt as long as you have good air flow, it should be fine. It was just hard to tell what clearance you had on the video. I've still need to illiterate how professional your build is mate. Top job!
I see barra, i click link....simple as that... :)
That’s the attitude!
Great stuff Richard, you’ve absolutely killed it, mint rig! The only thing I found is that exhaust you build the flex joint you used are not very good for turbos, they collapse and can restrict flow, most people I’ve seen building exhausts on TH-cam have always used the bellows type. Check out Daniel Kistlers TH-cam he literally replaced it on his last video getting ready for wild dog winch challenge
Cheers, good info. I’ll check it out.
Rich: ive drawn up some rubber seals in CAD and got them CNC cut.
Cal: just fill it with silicone, she'll be right
😂😂😂 silicone works
Hi Richard I’ve been a big fan since you started the build but the consol is a big let down to bulky for the interior of the cab plus to many sharp edges to bang into when four wheeling hope you can see what I’m talking about otherwise you have done an amazing job
Thanks Geoff, I understand your point but the car would look unfinished without it. The height was dictated by where the shifter felt comfortable in the driver seat so I struggle to see how I could make it less bulky. Also all exposed edges are either folded or tig'd so they aren't actually sharp! Appreciate the constructive criticism!
With the Barra engine is there a gear box that is manual that has a 4WD gear stick?
Hey Jesse, I’ve never looked into it but I’m sure it’s possible.
@@DesignedandBuilt cheers
You should be intouch with patriot games and help them design better 4x4 stuff
Why dont you felt the center console
Would be cool for sure!
I really only have 1 concern, and that is if you wish to tour remotely u really want to make a proper big bullbar for kangaroos. From what u have done it shouldn't be a problem. Would hate to see one re arrange the beautiful work u have done
itll be plenty for roo's
@@samscott8727 at 100km I don't think so, iv hit 2 big ones and both cars were damaged and both had arb full bar work. Good luck getting his custom radiator in middle of no where when a roos goes through it
@@landcruisertoyota3980 lol bro then what do you bloody suggest he does 😂
@@samscott8727 he just build and awesome car from ground up mate, I'm sure he could build a great bar setup!
Puts the old steering wheel back on
Second!
First!
Do people still do this or nah
@@DK90VR It still seems to be a thing!
That big barra sticker on the windshield ruined it for me.
