So very well done from the rig to the journey life is short......................Became a patron because EVERYONE should do this with at least part of thier life.
I like it. We're currently using a pretty thick cable that we route through the cans and tire back to the deny lock. Also, we have 5 or 6 more bags that Kelsey sewed up. I'll try to add in a little update of the interior as we travel. Cheers!
Excellent video Kelsey! That was a pretty thorough run down of Goose... I see Tim stepped up on his APRS game. Love the soft bulk storage in the back. Keep on keeping on....
Very cool. Following you on APRS...and trying to figure it out from there and your journey etc. Very cool. Love heading to Baja every month and PG and PPG and ATVs etc. I'm setting up currently shoot spots for an Outside TV show on BAJA and the rugged beauty there as well as the adventure, food, wine and people !
This video has been so helpful in aiding my decision making on our own 80 build. Tim, you mentioned running a low voltage disconnect when Goose was on a single battery. Do you recall what device you used and if you wired the entire truck (even the starter) through it? We love and look forward to all your content, keep it up. Thank you in advance.
Cheers Trevor. The two I used we're a Battery Brain and later a Priority Start. Both saved me several times over the years. I went ahead and wired everything through it just to be safe in case there was some parasitic draw.
Cool video guys - very interesting build up - happy travels - so jealous! Just a thought on your lpg gas bottle location - might not be legal as it would be in a bad spot if someone rear ended you. Definitely not legal here in Australia. Will be following and drooling 😁
Thanks man! Fair point! What's odd is that in Arizona vehicles were installed with an LPG tank in the back of their cars to be more "Environmentally Friendly" so there are a lot of other... explosive vehicles out there. Does that make me feel better or worse. Not sure! Can you keep fuel cans on the rear bumper?
DirtSunrise diesel is ok on the rear but apparently petrol isn't because it's more flammable. There was a post yesterday put out by our cops defecting a car for having it attached to the spare - he also had a solar panel on his bonnet and had cut his number plate in half to go around his winch at the front - so I think he was asking for trouble 😁 keep up the great vids guys 👍
Great build. We took a lot from all the details you shared. You two remind us so much of ourselves. Looking forward to continuing to follow you on your journey.
Glad they got there quickly! My mom, although terrified we'll die ASAP, is enjoying sending out stickers to be a part of it all. The 2 are water cans and that Scepter I've had for 12 or 14 years so I have... possibly more trust in it than I should to not vent any fumes! Still, so far so good... Look for the plume on the horizon if it doesn't go well.
Would you give the name and model of the tent please? I couldn’t catch the name. Thank you. My 80 is at 220k, and I’m still unsure if it’s worth putting that much effort into it but this is inspiring. Goose rocks!
Roland Rosso thanks Roland. It's called a Campteq. Only 7 or 8 were ever built. You can cut your roof off like we did or just put it on like a tent via the drip rails. I've heard some more may get made. Keep an eye out on IH8MUD.com for them. 👍👍👍
Yup. I got in touch with the builder. Sounds like getting one is possible. I'd need to sleep 4, 2 up 2 down, so I'm going to very precisely cut Amazon boxes as templates and play a few games of Twister in the back of the 80 with the family. Really like your channel by the way. I like the details of the build and how you put it to use.
Right on. The upper area is tight. Perfect for us, but for someone over 6' or for 2 people who weren't fairly skinny it would get annoying. Thank you! Good luck, let me know what way you end up going. Sounds cool!
Did you swap the wiring for your starting battery? Or are all starting batteries for LHD Land Cruisers located on the right side? Here, in Australia 80 Series Land Cruiser OEM battery (ie. starting battery) is located on the right side.
Not sure if I just missed it in this video but have you gone over what you’ve done with your rear awning anywhere? I’ve seen it in the other videos and thought about doing something similar for my 100
We haven't really done anything very in depth about the rear awning. It is homemade, just sewed a square and on one end we attached it to the truck with some sail track (usually used for boats). On the other end we put eyelets so we can attach to poles. Works great.
did those interior cabinets come from the same guy as the pop top? looks just like a different video (far out overland i think) i saw of an hdj81 pop top
Thanks for the tour! I been looking into these!
No problem 👍

If she ever so inclined to sew up a few more bags Im sure many will buy. I will.
@@jailbreakoverlander for sure. As soon as we are home and near a sewing machine, I think we gotta. Those bags have changed our trip.
This rig is so dialed in to your needs. CampTEQ tops are great. Wish they made them for 100 series. May have to fab one myself.
Awesome! Pretty proud of all the stuff you are doing and love the videos. Great content and clean audio / video and editing.
Excellent video Kelsey! That was a pretty thorough run down of Goose... I see Tim stepped up on his APRS game. Love the soft bulk storage in the back. Keep on keeping on....
This is such an awesome set up. I'm looking to do this with my 80 in the future now that I hear Campteq is back in production
Great build, will keep watching with interest.
Very dice diy build..good job guys! Safe travels.

Thanks! We're trying to get APRS to work down here. Lots of digipeters around Mexico City, but I can't seem to get it to ping.
Awesome build guys! Happy Trails!
🤙 thanks!
Great walk-through, great rig for overlanding! 👍 ~Mav
Finally a vid worth watching, what's the spare tire lock called again?
Deny Locks
Super cool rig - looks like you guys are having a blast! Look forward to checking out your other vids!
Just watched this again Im coming to expo east JUST to interview you tow and try to help blow up the channel
Dude, don't make the trip just for us! If you are there, beer on me amigo.
Yes! The owner ja really big on USA steel, parts and powder coating.
fantastic series
Nice , simple set up! Quite like it!

Cheers!! Can't wait to see your trip and how all the mods work out. Reach out any time if we can help. T&K
The 80 looks great. Thinking about stove location with fuel can behind. Got my set of stickers, fast shipping too ;O)
Safe travels!!

Nice rig. You mentioned possibly getting the AISIN hubs later. How do you like the KVMs now? Pros and cons? Thanks in advance.
Never had an issue and they're still on the truck. We sold it, but I would switch to Aisin if we went back to wheeling hard.

Nevermind, you only had 2 videos dedicated to the pop top. ;)

Great video guys!
What are those airplane rack things?
Hey Joe, it is aluminum airline track here's a link. amzn.to/2WsVXCk
Nice 80! During the trip through South America, what was your average fuel consumption with those 35” tires?
Email sent Juan!
The #4 sticker on the window, is that from fourtillfour coffee in Arizona?!
Yep, Nico's a buddy. Great coffee too!
Haha no way! Small world. Go there every Saturday. Amazing build.
@@SonoranRat thanka! We used to before we headed south. Say hello to Nico and Mia for us! Miss heading down there on the weekends!
what kind of paint job is on your rig? Looks similar to a 'Line X' type product?
Mostly mud and dust. 😉 It's just the original Toyota Moon Glow Pearl paint.
Not sure if I just missed it in this video but have you gone over what you’ve done with your rear awning anywhere? I’ve seen it in the other videos and thought about doing something similar for my 100

DirtSunrise cool thanks!
you guys are an awesome team! I found myself watching from Episode 1! two old fogies trying to relight a fire......@seventhstream
old man em-ew LOL , its like EMYOU , get it right yankee , lol love your vids
Eam... I mean _____ you. Haha! Cheers 🍻
Hey nice set up. What materials did you use for your storage system? Those metal joints look really nice and seem to be easy to work with!
All 80/20 extruded. There are a ton of websites where you can buy parts and assemble just about anything. It's easy to work with!
Cool! Thanks!
did those interior cabinets come from the same guy as the pop top? looks just like a different video (far out overland i think) i saw of an hdj81 pop top
Where did you get the pop top?
Did you regear?
MILO!
Dang you look like a kid hahaha
Right! Travel ages you, a lot. LOL!
