Interesting build. 💌 from KE

If couples can do this, they are so luck to find each other 🔥🔥 so rare!

🔥👏🏻😍

What a genius move to use that chassis and that new drivetrain. Parts for that build are easy to come...anywhere. Love this build.

I’ve got almost 100000km on my at3w set of 4 regular rotation and alignments are key Cheers from New Zealand

Why not make the lid to the under-seat storage one complete unit on gas struts and velcro or attach the cushions to it so you can easily lift and access all at once without moving cushions?

Could you add solar panels on top of/instead of adding battery capacity?

Is the friend really sipping on a beer changing in the engine? 😂

Have you considered running a propane injection system in your engine? Power gains seem to be hit-or-miss for many, but increased fuel mileage and a cleaner/cooler-running engine are definite advamtages.

That 3.6 VZ looks pretty tight in that engine bay. So in changing the engine, size is the biggest factor. Diesel is preferred for long distance touring, so I would probably suggest something modern like a Hilux engine.. If you can get the one from the Hilux 3.0 D-4D or something similar. Since you have the 80 series chassis, one could recommend the 1HD-FTE, but it has to fit inside the engine bay of what essentially is a 40 year old Hilux. So that's out. For the A/C, I would suggest looking up Vintage Air for a kit. They may have one for your vehicle or be able to sell you a universal kit for the project.

9:56 I really hope the dampers weren't installed at that point :o

Very nice. Question seen alot of your videos. They are awesome. What brand and model is your drone? Tnks. Happy travels and be safe.

this is insane project i have ever seen, great job and happy for you guys

I've been drinking AG1 for about 8 months. I will never go back.

Wow all I can say is wow

This video came at the perfect time! I'm in my 100 day countdown to set off on the Pan-American with my Troopy, and these are super valuable lessons learned!

Do you think the road travel or shipping/storage container time was harder on your interior?

I love all your videos. I’ve always wanted to travel. My favorite so far is between Guatemala and Patagonia. I love that you wanted to get to Patagonia for the leaves changing. I would do that too I love that you take all the back roads and not so much of cities. Yours is our favorite, by far, of all the overlanders we’ve watched. You’re such real down to earth people. Just irselves. Great job!!

good video thought

long add Jesus

'01 Tacoma with the venerable 3.4l original owner. 420000 miles and nary a wrench has turned on that motor besides plugs, oil changes, timing belts and associated water pumps and thermos. Were it me, I'd keep it. Its 190 dependable, long winded horses. Just sayin'.

My dream one day 😢

Fluid film your rig for any rust isues! all the nooks and cranies!

I grew up in a 1969 Ford Econoline pop top camper every school break and almost every weekend we were off somewhere. It had very similar handles on all the drawers and cabinets. That was the first thing my father replaced with marine flush mount hardware. It’s far too easy to catch things or yourself on those protruding cabinet drawer pulls.

I have been running my Setpower TC75 for over 3 years 24/7 and only thing that has happened is that the power cord got frayed and I had to get a new one. I’m now have the new RV45S steel side version as well. We also have a C60 Truma that came with the trailer we use as a freezer it uses more power and is noisier than the SetPower fridges.

We have stainless handles in our kitchen like your drawer, and I get caught on them all the time. So, you’re not alone.

I’m curious how you got all that stuff in that Toyota, Ive got a 10 foot off-road camper trailer there’s barely enough room for me with all of our gear. I have to curl up in a ball to sleep because there’s not enough room to stretch out. I’ve got less stuff than you.

Que belleza!!!! Felicidades.

Isuzu ftw. Suuuper capable rigs ive had several and I was never afraid to go where people with bigger tires went.

R2.8 cummins very reliable diesel power. comes with a warranty and everything you could ever need to pop it in there and make it work right from cummins.

Yea sorry I can't agree with (the knife situation)I live in Hamilton ON and have never had this nor the village I grew up in England Kent or innsbruck austria live for 5 years

In tank or external fuel pump? I'm curious. My guess would be external..... tho easy to replace, they don't stay as cool without being submerged. But that's the issues? Not bad in deed! I have a customer with a 4runner with 580k on it. Original motor and transmission. I started my career doing the first timing belt on that thing!!

Going international go diesel!

That weird 4x4 truck at 2:12 is a soviet-era UAZ Hunter. Hourrendous vehicle, but goes everywhere.

Cummins BT-4 would be epic in that rig.

1KZ-TE. Its simple reliable and parts are available world wide. Diesel is a much better fuel for overland in other countries as it is more forgiving. Plus the fuel mileage is way better.

I’m giving away free one-month codes for Trackara-the app that keeps your project car organized with maintenance tracking, budget tools, and more! Want a Code? Comment with your project car and say you’d like a code. I’ll DM it to you while supplies last! Let’s keep those builds smooth-grab a code and give Trackara a try!

Wow you did a great job and what an awesome end result - one of the sickest overland vehicles I have ever seen

I have 10cm sponge cousions but get back pain from sleeping on it

I know a Land Cruiser guy who specializes in canvas covers, ill ask him.

Can't wait to see how the renovation turn out! As for the engine I'd go 1kzte for sure. Let me know if you want a cheap surf/Prado shipped over from the UK, they're pennies here

What does maintenance like this cost

A few kilos lighter after getting those Columbian tea concentrates unloaded 😉👍. I was referring to COFFEE 😂😂

Just because it is stainless steel does not mean it won't rust. There are different formulations for stainless steel - if you're looking for no rust, the stainless needs to be 304 or 316. Your drawer slides are made of 430 stainless and they do rust stain (and actually, any 3xx is fine, 4xx isn't). On the other hand, if you want to weld up an exhaust, 430 is better because it doesn't get as brittle and crack with heat cycles (as 3xx would).

Always wanted to see a 1JZ in a 4WD pickup. Bolts up to R151/W56. Only problem is that its pretty long so squeezing it in with a decent cooling fan would be tough. I think Canada got some cars with them but USA did not. You honestly have the best option for the money already. Could go crazy and get a 4BT cummins tho...

Engine really depends on where you are going, Africa, Oz, Asia, Europe .....

I just opened up the under-bench area. you could find many baskets to slide under the benches, few inch lip to stop them sliding around.

I love the om617 Mercedes turbo diesel. Inline 5 cyl, great fuel mileage, easy to mod. Parts are plentiful and it’s all mechanical

My suggestion would be a 4.8L LS (LQ4), super reliable/robust and relatively cheap

beautiful
