This is an excellent series Ronny. I'm not planning to get a Hilux, but the info you present is clear and applicable to all 4x4's. I really appreciate you are not building unobtainium.
Thank you Ronny, I live in Norway and you have inspired me to sell my tesla and buy a Hilux, I cant afford all these builds straight away thats for sure but i am looking at 2016+ models. Thank you for the videos.
Hear, hear! To add to what you've said, this shake-up demonstrated the abilities & limitations of a nearly-stock vehicle, & the adjustments a driver can do to make full use of the vehicle despite existing limitations.
@@Ronny_Dahl - I only have a cab chassis and my little buddy has really taken to fishing and camping, so I have a big decision coming up. Been doing heaps of research and wanted to say a big thank you for your “no nonsense” videos. Mate, it could save people thousands - or save us making a mistake, especially for those of us who can only afford one vehicle that can do both work and play. Cheers 🍻 again
Here in the USA, I've got my self a Tacoma. My build is extremely slow bc im trying to purchase a home and these mods can quickly add up but going slow has definitely allowed me to get out there see where the rig is lacking and buying only what I absolutely need as I go along. It's fun to watch my rig transform slowly and sometimes I wish I could go a bit faster with the build as I watch everyone around me with there fully kitted out trucks but for now I'm making do, lol. So I'm especially enjoying your Hilux build as it's more for the common man lol. Thanx and keep up the awesome videos! P.s. just managed to purchase an ARB snorkel for 100$ off the usual price. Super excited for that, can't wait for our to arrive.
Yep - my Mrs asked what she needed in a soft roader to go places - Air pump is number 1 - even a "pathetic" lowend pump is better than nothing (at least once).
Good video mate thanks for sharing. Love that you are telling people to just get out there rather than telling them they need a heap of mods to do anything.
Mate I love your videos, so glad there is someone being honest about just getting out and doing it in a stock vehicle. I've been learning heaps from your videos this year. I've had my new JB74 for a month now and been out 3 times already, so much fun and so capable as a stock car. The 3rd time I had some KO2's put on, but still had a crack fully stock after only 500k's on the odo. You're a true Aussie legend mate, keep up the good vids.
Actually going from a tray and canopy set on my old px 2 ranger to a tub set up on my new 2021 Dmax. already saving weight and money with the option out today
All that gear has no value if you don't have experience in overlanding. Until now you're the perfect gear.🤙Thank you for your work buddy. I think it's hard to do what you like and get paid for it ...😂👍
What a great series and a great approach, doing 2 builds. I've had my current hilux for a year and a half now and the only changes I've made are winter tyres, for winter, and a pair of driving lights. After seeing this I think I will put all terrains on in spring instead of the highway tyres.
Thanks Ronny, been doing the off road, overlanding, crawling, for many years, and several different platforms, but dig your take on things. Keep up the good work, and Cheers!
Hi Ronny, just wanted to say that I love your channel!! I am selling 94 G class (crazy offroad rig) and switching this year to now SR5 Hilux with bigger engine as I have daughter now and want to get my family into it for a next decade at least! I will go for AT habitat and few more mods but want to go more from experience rather then making full set at the beginnig. This channel is very helpful and now exciting as we will have same cars! Cheers from Poland!!
8:20 There are aftermarket seat spacers which go under Toyota truck seats to tilt them forwards, backwards or lift straight up. I think they are aluminum blocks, anodized black.
It is great to see this progress. We picked up a new SR5 pre-face lift for a bargain in the sales. So we don't have the extra power, car play etc but otherwise pretty similar. We are new to owning a ute and 4 Wheel driving in general. So far our mod choices seem to be following yours pretty closely apart from a soft cover (we already have the roof rack) and a decent 12v system has been added.
Great series! I have a 2020 Tacoma. Will start building it in a year or so. Looking forward to following your lux build for ideas and insight. Keep up the great work brother!
I use my gu patrol for touring at the moment but may also grab the new ranger raptor next year, if it comes out awd, as I think it’s the best looking Ute I’ve ever seen. I would like to turn that into a tourer as well as the ifs unfortunately would make it a weak candidate as a weekend rock basher as well, so your shows are perfect to see what would work on a Ute as touring mods. Great segment.
Have a facelift 2.4 Luxy. The 2.8 has just been brought to the shores of Scotland 🏴 and I plan on getting one soon as. I like the rear bed cover you’re rocking mate I may go for a similar set up but was also thinking about a roll out load bed slide set up and was wondering if you think it would be a good idea or not worth the load space lost ??? Outstanding videos absolutely love this channel buddy 👌👍👍👍
Ronny, great videos, love the content as usual. I do have a video suggestion though. Could you cover securing things inside the cab from a safety perspective. If one were to flip their 4WD it wouldn't be good to have heavy things (i.e. cans of food, tools, an axe) flying around inside the cab. Also, bottles rolling under the brake pedal. Things falling off seats can result in one reaching to pick them back up which means diverting one's attention from driving. An example of something I do in my work van. I'm a field service tech, my laptop backpack and lunch box live on the passenger seat when I'm on the way a job site. I got tired of my lunch box falling off on the floor so I loop the lunch box should strap over the seat headrest. When traffic gets dumb (i.e. people 5 cars in front of me slamming on the brakes because they aren't paying attention) I'll also pull the passenger seat belt over both the lunch box and backpack to keep them in place should I have an accident.
Really cool build project. I'm waiting for mine atm as well. Ordered the Extra Cab though. Would be cool if you'd explain your decision for the Double Cab at some point. I thought about that decision a lot and ended up with the EC mainly because I can sleep in it when I add a canopy... Stealth camping is a useful feature in Europe since setting up camp is not allowed in most places :) Great videos overall. They get me so pumped for my truck :D Greetings from Germany!
Ronny. when you do your bar work, it would be great to hear your thoughts on the pros/cons of hoopless, single hoop and triple hoop bars and whether some styles are better for particular circumstances (technical driving vs touring etc)
i want everything and now:), yes you have point, I got Grand Cherokee WK2 and was bad buy in the beginning as not enough space with 4 and German Shepard. Than after 2-3 years I was on hunt and went thru few trucks, Tacoma, Colorado (amazing off road but too small), Tundra is better but no locker, Dodge Power Wagon is right but price tag is away up there. So I have needed up with Titan XD 4 ProX. Add topper, drawer system from decked, 34' ( i wish 35' but it needs front fender mods, iKamper, FrontRunners rack and removable winch. Next will do lighting, replace fronts struts, rock sliders (1000 bucks in USA min)
Hi Ronny. You made an important observation comparing HT tyres to the AT tyres regarding how low pressures need to go to increase tyre footprint. I’ve let tyres down (and had to pump them back up) hundreds of times, but I have never done a side by side comparison between the two types of tyres. Could you please do an air down comparison? Let down a HT to a pressure that gives you (say) the footprint for soft sand. Then air down the AT until you get the desired footprint and compare the pressure differences. Regards, Sean
Hey mate, I use a projecta battery box, consider it for a option as with a cheap solar controller its a great oiption as it has a built in 300w pure sine built into it, its a good unit, good video, you know what i'd look forward to seeing, how it stacks up to heavily modded vehicles on your trips, like up against the 79's etc.
Campingwise, would like to see a shakedown done with the family it is current not-so-modified form. For the most of us would get a dual cab and load it up with 2 adults and 2 children with camping gear in the tub.
I notice you weigh and keep track everything for the build, will you also provide a cost of everything? I see the purpose of build one is to show people what they need - feels like a waste if you don't include costs?
You don't really need to bring a tent if you have a wagon. I've gone camping in the back of my car several times. It really is enjoyable. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
Hi Ronny loving the build up the Lux look awesome. You were talking about doing some lighting in the tub maybe some camp lights. Have you thought about running strip lights. They are lightweight bright and don't use much power. What's your thoughts?
Something to keep in mind when you think about the front bar, winch and lights is the radar cruise control and front parking sensors. Thatd be the only reason I'd choose genuine Toyota acceossrie$..
Hi Ronny, I have a video request. You have mentioned bush mechanic repairs using wire and your Knipex wire cutters. I wonder if you could do a video showing some tying techniques and repair uses. Thanks
I did a weight budget for my 2019 Fortuner after watching this. It was based on a long over-landing trip with water, extra fuel etc. My Load Limit is 780kgs. My total planned Load weight was 1000kgs 🤯 I’m not going to be able to go for the winch, rock sliders and a couple other planned mods 😓 I see now why guys get the hilux or 70 series 😂
Just watched the shakedown vid. Given my current job, lots of travel, I am not sure how long it will be before I can get back out on the trails. As far as mods go, should I upgrade the nerf bars to rock sliders or upgrade the suspension. My truck, 2019 4Runner TRD Off Road, came with stock AT tires.
Don't quote me. If you keep the seatbelts fitted and the seats can be easily put back then I think it is OK. If you want to remove them permanently then the seatbelts need to come out and the vehicle registered as a 2 seater.
@@borisjohnson1944 that is such a weird rule. I'm in california, and you can do pretty much whatever you want to your vehicle without needing to change the registration, as long as it still meets the requirements necessary for a vehicle to be driven on the road at all. Here, that means that it has to meet smog, bumper and lighting requirements, and you have to have a proper seat belt for every seat left in vehicle, or at least you can't use a seat that's still in the vehicle unless there's a proper seat belt for it.
Just my opinion but consider a spray on liner. I had one on a hilux and it was still perfect after almost 12 years of coping a flogging of work and play and bugger all weight added.
Hi Ronny, I like the tinted slimeline wind shield /screens you have over your windows on the Hilux, do you find they stop any wind noise when you have your window down about an inch or so ?
Hi Ronny, Any chance you can add a link to ebay for your head torch? i have looked for months on and off and can't seem to find the one you use. It just reminded me again when you mentioned it .Thanks.
Mate loving the hard lid, what's your thoughts opening it up with a 6x3m gazebo strapped to it ?. I priced it up online and would like to know before selling my first born child to get one
I have a question: Will you discuss the fuel tank extension AND how to extend the “AdBlue” tank? How to ensure that the car management system does not shut down after reaching the “standard” levels (low fuel or AdBlue? Pls, not only for you Toyota but also for my Ford Range Wildtrack 2018 ;-) Best regards from Switzerland
Hey Ron thanks for that reply .......have 1 more question for yah, I live in Jamaica so accessing parts kinda difficult here almost impossible unless you willing to pay an arm and a leg. Anyway question ,what is your thought on the tie down points on the front of the hilux? Do you think strong enough to be used as toe points ,based on the fact they are quite thick and welded to chassis. Your views please.
Loving this new HiLux content since I have it's brother the Tacoma here in the States. I also have a DCSB but do you guys get a choice of bed lengths in AUS? If so did you consider the longer bed or did you want to keep the short wheelbase? Thanks for all the awesome content and inspiration!
@@Ronny_Dahl yeah I'm with you w the 2 kids that's why I have the dual cab also but here you can actually get the longer bed w the dual cab. I think it throws the side profile proportions out of whack though so my short bed is mostly for aesthetics but it does help the breakover angle too
Picked up my new Hilux 2 days ago. Following your build for a basic set up. Swag, ice box, charcoal bbq. Where did you get the lock box in the tray? Need to keep the axe and coals somewhere clean.
Loving the hilux mods Ronny, I was wondering if it would still be okay to run the stock 18 inch hilux rims with all terrains? What would you recommend? Also waiting how the black out paint will look on yours before I do mine. Cheers
Hi Ron! I’m watching your channel for some time now,and I want to ask you a question,wich is totally out of the subject ... Considering the new ULEZ regulations,what ute would you recommend for a low budget ,as a starter in this beautiful journey? Thank you in advance for your answer! Cornel from Liverpool,UK! Preferably double cab Ute! Cheers!
Love it Ronny, that is how I have camped and hunted for years here in British Columbia, Canada! Very old school, roughing it in the Bush.
Watching this series very closely, I purchased a Hilux last week and so far you've already answered a lot of my questions, good work mate.

make sure you get an akubra mate
The first acessory i add to any pickup is a fiberglass camper shell. Lockable, dry storage is something i cant live without

I LOVE your message at the beginning. In the age of Instagram overlanding cred, I think too many folks don’t think they can just get out and go.

64k. Stock 4wd.
Take me back. It's just ridiculous now.
The only mods I worry about is a winch because he gives you peace of mind if I wanna go through a mud hole or anything else

Looking forward to this video got my self a cold one
Appreciate the focus, at least on build one, on the normal budget.
Perfect time to buy the hilux and all the mods. Instant asset write off💰💰
Like anything else you buy for hobby- leisure
When you mention a bul/roobar, I'm reminded of a farmer strapping a roadkill roo to the roobar, to feed her dogs.

Nice vid Ronny good to see the Hilux slowly getting there keen to do a shake down on mine this weekend as well how comfortable are these new cars 😂
Ronny, get some seat covers for the love of god, while your seats are still nice
No point in having nice seats if you can't see them likesaving your wife for next guy

Excellent Ronny!!:D
Hi Ronny loving the build up the Lux look awesome. You were talking about doing some lighting in the tub maybe some camp lights. Have you thought about running strip lights. They are lightweight bright and don't use much power. What's your thoughts?

and front parking sensors. Thatd be the only reason I'd choose genuine Toyota acceossrie$..

Not every country allows bull bars. Maybe recovery points could be assessed without front iron work too?
Hey Ronny. When talking to the camera what camera body, lense and mic are you using. Something has improved greatly, this is top quality.
have a look at ironman bullbars. they do loop bars
Great vids and content thanks
What will your mods do to the warrantee or have you just given up on that?
I think a Amber and white LED strip and magnetic strip on the inside of you hard top would go well.
I got a question: You gonna add a snorkel because of that river crossing you did on that shakedown trip?
Just watched the shakedown vid. Given my current job, lots of travel, I am not sure how long it will be before I can get back out on the trails. As far as mods go, should I upgrade the nerf bars to rock sliders or upgrade the suspension. My truck, 2019 4Runner TRD Off Road, came with stock AT tires.

do you know if it is legal in WA to remove the rear seats and use that space as storage

Hey - general 4x4 question - do you think a turbo timer is required - don’t hear much about people adding them - do u think they are needed
thank you for detail video
look at wheels and tyres for my Isuzu 300 4x4 crew cab and cost set is $8,000 dollars buy off-road tyes
Nice Q&A , Good job! Very helpful
Hi Ronny, could you please tell me what size is your CAOS ADVENTURE SERIES CASE ?
Are you going to install front diff lock?
Would you put and idrive throttle controller in the hilux????
Hell no never. Tuning rather than any throttle booster any day

Thanks for all the awesome content and inspiration!
There is an extra cab option which has a longer tub/tray/flatbed option but I got two kids so I need the rear seats
@@Ronny_Dahl yeah I'm with you w the 2 kids that's why I have the dual cab also but here you can actually get the longer bed w the dual cab.
I think it throws the side profile proportions out of whack though so my short bed is mostly for aesthetics but it does help the breakover angle too
Picked up my new Hilux 2 days ago. Following your build for a basic set up. Swag, ice box, charcoal bbq.
Where did you get the lock box in the tray? Need to keep the axe and coals somewhere clean.
Just check out caos gear
@@michaellarner8529 thanks I’ve been searching for “chaos” and “kaos” “kayos”. Great when companies don’t follow basic spelling 😂
@@michaellarner8529 cheers mate
Loving the hilux mods Ronny, I was wondering if it would still be okay to run the stock 18 inch hilux rims with all terrains? What would you recommend? Also waiting how the black out paint will look on yours before I do mine. Cheers
Hi Ronny, What kind of compressor do you use in the hilux from which manufacturer is your pressure gauge?
Do you carry any protection for a yowie attack in the middle of the night.
What is that box/tote bag with a clear lid and zipper?
Hi Ron!
I’m watching your channel for some time now,and I want to ask you a question,wich is totally out of the subject ...
Considering the new ULEZ regulations,what ute would you recommend for a low budget ,as a starter in this beautiful journey?
Thank you in advance for your answer!
Cornel from Liverpool,UK!
Preferably double cab Ute!
