excellent video Ronny! I love those old rig modified episodes, specially if they are Toyotas (being an old Toyota LandCruiser Owner and fanatic myself). Cheers all the way from Panama
Nice vid, Love the modes and congrats on 200K subs. BTW at 4:23 it's a different winch (kings) right ?, (is it the one from the Prado at 20:35 ? assuming its lined up for the next modified 😜)
He loves his car - Which is awesome - Ronny- "How is the head lights - They are good " - Mate - "They are awesome " - Ronny - " You are first person to say the stock is good " - Classic.... Well done mate.
Great cruiser! Congratulations on 200k subs Ronny! That's a mammoth effort! Keep up the great work mate, you've entertained and inspired a lot of people including myself and continue to do so. Cheers!

Gorgeous well used and built vehicle. wish i could have one of these, ive passed on a few as they seem to be rust buckets or needing rebuilt around the time they get sold here. would never put those giant lights in front of the fan/radiator but it seems to not give him any problems
Well done Russell. Also love the electrics and use of ebay, you clearly know your way around. Ronny can we have the ebay links for the lights and dimmers? (I did look here and on the website, can't find them).
EPIRB and PLB aren’t exactly the same. I have heard Ronny say epirb a couple of times when the owners have said PLB. Maybe a video on EPIRB vs PLB vs satphone would be good.
nate brindy yes and a EPIRB gets set off if immersed in water. Also EPIRB sends a different signal and will keep sending signal longer than PLB. The battery is bigger basically. Few other things but most people carry a PLB not EPIRB. Another this is the spot tracker, that’s different again. That’s why a video on these for 4wheelers a good idea. I do solo trips on my motorcycle sidecar that’s why I carry one.
24V is a Japanese standard? I remember talking about NATO spec. vehicles with the local LC club. Some people converted to 12V for finding bulbs?? I'd thought about putting a FF rear in, but it would have involved shipping Oz to Canada. Oz ,the land of LC spares - and aftermarket turbos.
I have the 1986 BJ74 and love it !......I noticed the factory internal roll cage was missing was this to get extra room ? , prefer my 12volt version to much going on in this one for me but good on him for making it his own . Good vid as always Ronny :)
Factory roll cage wasn't fitted on JDM models (or at least not all of them), the rear seat mounting is also different, much lower and further forwards than the ADM back seat.
I dont know about the 74 but my bj71 came out factory with suspension in the seats similar to what you would find on an old bus. Helps alot when your giving is some off road or hit a speed bump a bit quick

Mate, do the world a favour....don't install HIDs in the headlights. At least not the low beam!! Those lights aren't designed for HIDs and will blind oncoming drivers. How do I know? I fell into the trap about 15 years ago with my (then) GU Patrol. I ended up getting rid of my various HID driving lights too....they are crap compared to my Fyrlyt Nemisis which are 250w (each) Halogens.
Well it is not a 74 ,it is a 73 ,this is my favourite version of the 70 series ,I mean I do like the SWB,trooper ,pickups and the LWB station wagon ,but this is very unique!
No, it's a BJ74. Factory turbo diesel, plus there's a number of weird little things that show it, like the little brace running fore and aft across the roof lining from near the rear view mirror.
If you need parts for your Japanese import (or need to know what the parts are), try these guys; jp-carparts.com/. 1997 Toyota Hilux Surf SSRX 3.0TDE- Gold Coast, Australia.
Anyone know about his channel. I would realy appreciate if someone tell me about Russell's bj74 RUclips or any other social media channel. Planning to buy bj74. It wil help me a lot.
@@mandyperkins2510 hi there mandy... just wanted to know if you guys have RUclips channel or IG of your rig and its setup and adventures...I'm gathering ideas for my future Hzj73 :p I currently have 1990 Pzj70.
well,,if it was a 4 door,or decent length w/base.it wouldnt seem so dramatic.cant understand why people buy swb tins.why do you think they named a toyota bundera,ie bouncing animal,or the bronco,ie bucking horse.but then,the bronco is swb to americans.but "std w/b " to ausies.
I love when people make there old rigs there own. Good to see rather than a vehicle just dropped off at arb or the like. Well done mate 🤙
Dude, this guy is Mad Max meets Galaxy Quest I love it, This is what Americans imagine Aussy 4x4 are all like. Classic overland
vehicle.
Hey Ronni. Congratulations on 200K subs mate.
Steve thanks for your support
Great rig, nice to see a well used vehicle!
Nice, capable vehicle, simple storage and looks well used.
Congratulations Ronny (all at 4 Wheeling Australia),
200.000 members !!!...and you where worried to get to 100.000....

Great video! 74s are so rad and I love all the DIY stuff the guy has done. Really made it his.

Good job for both the car owner and Ronny
Overlanding is the new cool in America, Never seen so many RTT at the high school parking lot.

Soon as you said Russell,I thought it was Mr coight
You gotta do more Vids like this Ron,
Modifications well thought and unique to the individual and the car. ;D
Had 2 BJ73 s Awesome. Great size & very capable . Never let me down ( except when I put one on its roof)
200k+ subs. Boom, there it is!
Well done Ronny. Well deserved. Keep up the great content.
Great cruiser! Congratulations on 200k subs Ronny! That's a mammoth effort! Keep up the great work mate, you've entertained and inspired a lot of people including myself and continue to do so. Cheers!
Love this. Used to have a bj74 and to this day regret selling it!
In my view, best off road vehicle in almost all aspects, i'd been waiting for a modified on these. Thank you for the video ! Next, a BJ73 :)
Bugger that, should do the 71 next
Love all the mods. Nice fourby. Cheers on the 200K subs Ronny, well done
I love it. I like the squeak of the spare tire. Got the biggest you can fit. Love those little-led bar lights. No link yet? Too bad no 70's in the US

Would love to see a Prado 150 on this series :) Just got mine (35" Arctic Truck conversion) and I'm keen to get some ideas for more mods!
THANK RONNY OTHER GREAT DETAIL VIDEO
AND THANK YOUR PACK THAT CAME TO MY PLACE
Cool lil truck!
60 series would be cool
no,no no,leaf spring,too much o/hang rear.toyota woke up a bit with the 80 sreies.still,,,it a toyota.eeekkk
awesome rig
Ronny, You should come to New Zealand and do a modified on our 74 Series
My favourite cruiser. :-)
Gorgeous well used and built vehicle. wish i could have one of these, ive passed on a few as they seem to be rust buckets or needing rebuilt around the time they get sold here. would never put those giant lights in front of the fan/radiator but it seems to not give him any problems
Have a great time
Beautiful 74 mate I had a 73 that I did a LS swap on wish I never sold it
Heeey a 70 series we can have in the US!
but with no diesel engine :(
@@kallenstandish7944 why not? You can import diesels too
california emissions regulations, these BJ four cyliders arent EURO6 compliant but the v8 diesel is and even they arent allowed
@@kallenstandish7944 I believe 1997 and older diesels are actually smog exempt in CA.
If they are 25 years old you can. We do a lot with the 70 series
SWB, solid front axle , lockers, KO2'S what more could you want
Amazing car. Love your video
The man likes his cable ties!
Well done Russell. Also love the electrics and use of ebay, you clearly know your way around.
Ronny can we have the ebay links for the lights and dimmers? (I did look here and on the website, can't find them).

Mate, do the world a favour....don't install HIDs in the headlights. At least not the low beam!! Those lights aren't designed for HIDs and will blind oncoming drivers. How do I know? I fell into the trap about 15 years ago with my (then) GU Patrol. I ended up getting rid of my various HID driving lights too....they are crap compared to my Fyrlyt Nemisis which are 250w (each) Halogens.
And Hid headlights are illegal in all states

Needs more cable ties.
Jesse Wicks - Refined Images 😂😂 exactly my thoughts.
Well it is not a 74 ,it is a 73 ,this is my favourite version of the 70 series ,I mean I do like the SWB,trooper ,pickups and the LWB station wagon ,but this is very unique!
