WERE GETTING THERE!!!
On this episode we make the 70 series a little bit more comfortable and practical for those long touring trips and daily driving.
I love how basic the 70 is but i love how many options there are to make the interior your own.
Now there isn't to many surprises here its almost identical to my 76 interior which has been tried and tested over the last 4 years with a few extra upgrades.
If your after any of the gear here are some of the legends that helped out on this install.

Frankly it's obscene what Toyota want for these vehicles. With kids nearly off my hands was contemplating buying a 79 single cab GXL to go touring and finally ditch the caravan. Quick look on the Toyota website and they want $85k for one of these now. That's 85,000 dollars for a two seat farm ute with virtually nothing in it, and then you have to throw half of it away and replace it to make it into something that might have some basic comfort for touring. That's just insane. To put it into perspective my ultra luxurious Y62 Patrol has taken me all over the country, with 100% reliability and cost 10,000 dollars less. And all I had to do was put a decent set of tyres on it.
Totally agree. No sense in these builds at all.
yeh its a bit bs mate, unless your a bloody youtuber or drug dealer its a bit of a stretch to buy one
Yep exactly....they are terribly uncomfortable, noisy, prehistoric and all about wank factor as they look cool and that's about it.....great for mining and station work but as for a touring, towing and every day driver they are rubbish unless you throw thousands into it.
I've owned a 79 DC and currently own a 76...I should of bought a 200 after I sold the 79, lesson well and truely learnt.
You sir win the internet today. I thought i was the only one that thinks a 79 is way overrated. You need to spend twice what the original cost is to bring it to a 2020 std
its a farm and mining truck. youll spend a lot of money making it a comfortable four wheel drive. because thats not what its meant to be. just like trying to make a toyta corolla a rock crawler. im sure you could, just depends how much money you want to spend. stop viewing these as civilian cars, because they're not. they're utility vehicles that are meant to be simple and to last, and they do both of those things pretty well. this is coming from a Patrol owner lol
what an exciting adventure : these guyz know a whole bunch from hard experience and then MORE! Saluté ex ZA the Fairest Cape!! Thanks stacks...learning heaps.
A little padding for the elbow 🤣 thats gold not soft 🤙
old mate from EC is so excited:)
Great built bud. Love it.
Good looking rig. Top job!
love the consoles,looks cool
Toyota Land Cruiser 70 series 🇯🇵❤️💪👍👆🎥👍
LUCKY! Id love to have the new Landcruisers here in the US
the 79 is a perfect 4wd to fit out and a solid front axle
Solid! Giving too many ideas.
Must be some tough roads around now.
Never seen this sort of money spent on any 45 series landcruisers years ago.
People still managed to get around when places were remote.
haha kinda defeats the purpose of buying a 79 series hey? theyre good because theyre so basic!
he competitively 4 wheel drives so he can do what he wants with his money
You are so right, that is why I just go horseback everywhere. Fuck improving that's for idiots
@@cLicKbre LMAO got him!
Yeah well on the opposite end your era didn’t engineer or create these upgrades back then either so your more than welcome to stay in your no air con, loud and tinned out 45 series and we will go the other way 👍🏽
Love the 70 Series - it has created a huge army of cottage industries for Australians providing various modifications and customisations. Jobs for Aussies!
Such a shame the 70 Series costs so much to begin with.
That's my main grape.
Oh what a feeling, at least the door handles and the dipstick are still original.
Matt, check out Proseat aircraft , auto, marine in Brendale , they are building GTS seats for my Patrol. A hell of a lot cheaper than Stratus and/or Recaro.
Can you please put the prices of stuff up
Looks the goods
Top video tiger 🐅
Good looking truck. Love the videos. I may start counting how many claps you do per episode??
How you he said "Running kinds in the back of the car" makes it sound like they are an optional mod 🤣🤣
Any chance you did a comparison on interior noise before and after sound deadening? Keen to know just how much difference it really makes
Sweet looking car. I reckon a gymbal would make a big difference to the videography such as 5:26
Just remember the 79 is a farm ute not a round the country tourer. Nice build.
@Anthony Prestidge Ye Ye ofc just when Matt goes on about seats speakers sound deadening etc it is a farm ute
Good job mate luv your rig, where did you get / buy the little box under neath the seat with key?
My old 80 would love this kinda treatment
Love the build vids mate!! Did you back into the roller door at the end?
😂 no
85K for a horse and cart
It’s a nice horse and cart tho’ 😁
Top job guys 😎🤙
“Basically like driving around in a Milo tin” is the best thing I’ve ever heard 😂
No better way to spend your money!! 🤓👊🔥🥂
Loving the rig! What tints do you currently have wrapped on the 79 series?
It’s coming together, not sure about those mirrors, am a Clearview man myself, also one word in seats Stratos, end of, Recaro overacted in comparison, if you support comfort and quality, this is the best mod imo after wheels tires and suspension to any truck or car for off road touring, take these over a fancy head unit. look forward to seeing it get out on the tracks. 🤙
@Tony F Agree not cheap, but ya get what ya pay for with them. Not saying those are bad, just a bit different, def have some interesting features.
$750 a pair not each same as msa.
Does the fridge fit without adjusting the seats ?
Did u succeed in getting your maps apps onto Apple CarPlay? I didn’t believe it was possible?
Who do you recommend in Perth or South West to do the sound deadening?
Looked at buying one of these about 5 years go.The price was reasonable then , but couldnt get past the position of the alternator and the starter motor.
Was told around a days labour to replace a starter motor.
Seen a few of these engines dusted because of the poor air box design as well.
Buy a 200 and don't have these issues with the interior still mint tho
Yeah and ya pay another 30-40k for an oversized car, 200 has its place but you spend even more to rig a 200 out to the level these tubers do, we don’t all get sponsored products.
Two totally different vehicles
You think he doesn’t know about a 200 series? Obviously he wanted a decked out 79!
the 200 series isnt solid axle so breaking cvs is easy which is not what you want when touring around australia.
@@jack-xh7xw also the 200 series wont last as long as the 70 series would
10 cup holders... Still not enough 😂
What’s the details on the head unit ?
i see mechanic face look like mark webber... 😁😁✌
Not much left of this 79 just about changed out it all.
What’s the damage on that head unit mate?
Can anyone tell me where I can order this headunit from? I’ve been through all the link in the info but didn’t have much luck.
nice :)
Hey where did you get your steering wheel in the 76?
Heyate from PVS
Any reason you went jmacx coil over superior ?
Interested to know why. Otherwise fantastic job overall
Honestly from my research the superior is a good kit but more based around flex and Offroad capabilities. I was after drive ability and weight carrying. This thing handles like a bloody dream and is built for weight and towing.
@@theexplorelife im on the fence which way to go with my build. My use will be predominantly weight carrying/touring, then the 5 link jmacx will be the go. Do you find it still capable with flexing offroad ?
What so a tractor should come with all the tech
Can I get the 9 inch head unit from ali express?
Hi mate will this fidge fit in single cab 79
hey mate I'm not too sure actually, best to chat to the guys at Cruiser Consoles
Why is there a bar on the side, right above the front wheel, that connects the grill guard with the bottom side protection bar below the doors?
Reinforces the strength of the front bar and minimises damage from animal strikes from the sides. Also stops the vehicle from getting scratched on tight tracks
Thank you, I appreciate your time for this reply.
Love the content but for the love of god Matt, can you stop clapping! Haha
Not likely 😂😂
Good to see you’re getting the car you want mate. But as far as money goes 79 series are a money pit by the looks of it what $250+ car. Surely there is something on the market that can tick more boxes especially with the interior.
But brother as long as your happy 😃 good I you bud
Unfortunately the 79 series is the only solid front axle 4x4 sold here in Australia. Every 4x4 is going IFS. And apart from the 200 series and maybe some American rigs, the only v8 diesel.
Mercedes g Ute already has a huge gvm but pretty limited exterior wise but a weapon off road.
hopefully your hands aren't as soft as your elbows mate, that's a lot of hand clapping thru the episodes so maybe need some of the coushin on thos also😀😀😀😀, good episodes but mate enjoying em all👍👍👍
CHECK YOUR URL FOR YOUR MERCH. It's spelled wrong!!!
Yes - I’m guilty of purchasing one - I’ve always been a 79 series fan - however I concede that you don’t get value with components. - you’ve forgotten two major issues with the dual cab, these being: the lack of a dual fuel tank & the narrow rear axle. I’ve addressed both issues at a cost of $9.5k. Should come as standard. Toyota don’t care - they still sell em to mugs like me.
Lack of dual fuel tank, they come with a single long range tank. The narrow rear diff, ever Landcruiser cab chassis and troopy has the narrow rear diff.
Anyone know what headunit that is?
ec offroad mate
Thanks mate
So basically through this build matt mentioned shit, shitty and Shit again. So this is what you have to do to make a piece of shit any good.
But is saying this, if I had a spare 150k the throw at a vehicle it still would not be a 79.
This is Matt's dream Rig so good on him....
They say a fool and his money are easily parted , it applies to people who pay what they do for these things and what you actually get
If that came 'factory from tojo' they'd have charged an extra 40k for the bloody thing.
Let us know when you hit $200,000
Hit
@@theexplorelife Haha well now you really do have a 200 series 👍🏼
79 just needs an auto gearbox
nah i disagree if your to soft to drive a manual get a prado or a triton
Yep and an IFS swap
Every second sentence in this video is another reason to not buy a 79 series. I get your enthusiasm Mate, but why not get a 200 series and make some mods to that instead ?
Ones a Ute and ones a wagon haha also 2” lift vs 4” on a 79 plus 200s are already complete nothing to build 😂
@@theexplorelife Hi Mate, do not get me wrong, the truck looks awesome and I just hope it is comfortable for your trip.
he might as well of rang muscle man from patriot and bought one of his, and saved himself the work. I love the content Matt does, but, "building a 79" is old. All4Ad have being doing it for years and so have many others. The facts are, after you pay 85g for a tractor, you need to spend 50+ to make it a tourer. May as well bought a 2500 ram or chev and had a comfy tourer and plenty of power on tap. I really dont get the love affair with the 79. apart from yeah, they look tough fitted out, but any 4by does
@@ultimateadventuresblog6564 79s are known for their reliability which is a big factor when it comes to building a tourer
@@ultimateadventuresblog6564 spend a extra 150k you missed the 100k total waste of money and all about the wank factor
Cheaper to chop and sas a 200 🤔
Them mirrors are hideous 🤦🏻♂️
If you need to do this much to a vehicle don't you think it's not the one for you. Why not just get a better factory optioned one. Like a 200, or a f truck, something other then what every other youtube has.
Buy 200, 70 designed for work
It’s a joke U spend $85,000 then have rip out the interior to bring it inline with a normal vehicle costing? Hope it’s got aGVM upgrade 😮
just buy a 200 series, sas the front.
Hi Boys 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
Spend 80k on a cruiser then spend thousands more to make it comfortable 🤦🏼♂️ dunno how everyone is so attracted to Toyota
If money is not a problem why not?
what other car can u buy new with solid axels
@@lennoxbishop7110 Jeep wrangler is all I can think of
yeah and jeeps are shit
Who gives a shit about solid axles. Drag yourself into the 21st century.
All that money spent but kept standard seats.
Sounds like you won’t know yourself
The adamant needle additionally support because lumber fortuitously moan around a green grey grieving female. fearful fearless, scary lettuce
Anyone want to be my Boyfriend 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
This bloke most likely sold everything he has in life including all his clothes and only has this ute under his name. Probably wear the same undies and clothes all day every day too
