That lad must have stocks in ARB! That is one gorgeous vehicle. The 100 series is possibly the best Toyota of them all.
70s are better
I have a 2007 Land Cruiser with 175,000 miles and it has always been in the family since new. Great vehicle, I absolutely love it.
1/4 million miles for a ~2006 Land Cruiser is not unusual, and they sell for as much as $20k, in the searching I've done in the past.
IMO, Toyota is the only brand that deserves such a high re-sale value.
But you pay for that when you buy it new.
Here in New Zealand, you often see 500k-1mil km 100s, selling for US$20k-40k
king of the road on and off
Absolutely beautiful truck. You cant get the parts to build it even if you wanted to. All the suppliers are back ordered indefinitely. Its a very rare opportunity to get one done to this level and taken care of so well.
Beautiful truck, nice sale 👍
Guy is 100% a doctor or lawyer
Comes off as the kind of guy where hes got a set of Craftsman tools in his garage, but they haven't been touched in over a decade.
@@bcatz454 🤣🤣🤣 all the nice ass tools just getting dusty
Man, haters lol
Dentist.
Who just drives logging roads.
So you think he just has money. I would never put the words doctor and lawyer in the same sentence. They are enemies.
I have a ‘01 LC with over 400K miles. It has a couple small dings and minor scratches. My mpg dropped to 14mpg highway after all the mods I added but I still love my rig. I take it off road at least once a month.
I’m getting about 12.5, but that is mostly at altitude
@@michaels3373 I’m at 5500’ elevation where I live. I try not to go over 70mph but when I do, my scan gauge says I’m getting 13mpg. With a near 26gal tank, I’m averaging 320 miles per tank. When I drive more conservatively I can reach 350 miles per tank.
i got a 99 with 112k miles and get barely 12 mpg
99 lx470 im getting 15mg highway 250k 75+mph commutes.
We're about to roll 295K miles on our 100 series, friggin love it. We paid 8K for ours with 225K miles in close to mint cond, 2005, Southern, one owner, older lady. (this was like 5 years ago or so).
That was a steal.
Best 8k ever spent
We have 504,000miles on our 4.2 TD 100 series. All original drive train.
Yes it was a steal almost double in price now
Yes please. I would love to have this truck as my daily. Very nice and tasteful build.
I love these 100 series and this is a sick rig but you can just tell he’ never takes it over landing or on trails its a mall crawler for sure
finally contents that actual 4 wheelers wants to see
P
@@josephwaweru1375 Thanks
What an incredible vehicle. I have an 80 with 255,000 miles on it, but it looks like it’s been every single one of those miles.
And you should be very proud of that! 😉
Best SUV in the world Landcruiser really is a legend!
I have a 2007 with 64k miles. Just started to do work on her. Lift , bumper. Love her. Got her new and will always be part of the family.
A lot of money in ARB gear. Approx prices in AUD (Australian dollars), Bull Bar, brush bars and steps ~$4.5k, rear bar with swing away ~$4k, rear drawers ~$2k, roof rack ~$1k, air locker diff locks ~$1.5k each. Plus fitting of everything....
You may be short of what the aftermarket fitout is worth lights $2500 for a pair let alone more and there will be more, radio and antenae$1300 (x2) exhaust for deisel or petrol $3k fitted, chipset $1500 fitted and tuned, lift shocks and airbags $4500 (??). Even in 1999 I was looking at $25k for a ex-aftermarket demo outfitted to touring spec and nothing has gone down. I have a 2001 1HD-FTE so all of the above + motor swap, paint top up, refurb interior, upgrade to 2013 dash and computer to suit new motor and chipset I'll be looking at $40k chassis up Galv etc and it will be better that 7/8ths of the aftermarket new 300's and be worth 460k at most and save me at least $60k just upgrading at that huge cost instead of buying new and aftermarket upgrades.
Come to Queensland there's tons of Cruisers just as built as this...
This is considered standard lol( as in everyone gets the same mods.)
Fantastic build. Love these trucks!
You have to love the 100 series, so incredibly timeless.
That is a nice set up sir.....I'd love to have something like that but I love my Tundra and could put a cap on the back for all those drawers.
Nice looking 100 series. Looks like he chucked the entire ARB catalogue at it.
Yeah, definetly didn't know what other offroad brands there were out there and just said ARB this and ARB that. I can tell some items from whereever he bought (probably kings chariot in florida) had skimped on some OEM item. Theres cheapo $50 CV axles that don't hold up offroading. Also can tell it doesn't look like its ever been offroad either.
He said right at the start of the video that the previous owner was an ARB dealer and most of the stuff was fitted by them. He just got them to add a few extra items he wanted.
Great to see a landcruiser with good Aussie ARB accessories fitted
good lookin' rig.Most 80 and 100 series owners I know have 250k+ miles on them, not skipping a beat.
308k in mine
Just picked up an 06 with 108k original miles that looks like it's spent it's whole life in a garage. Can't wait to have many adventures in it
Great low miles👌👌👌
I feel like this guy asked the people who did all the work on the truck for a list of what they did so he would sound like he knows how it works on camera
360,000 miles on my 2002 LC, plan to drive it to at least 500k but probably beyond.
Lovely looking truck! none of the gear looks used however i assume its mostly new kit or maybe just not used?
owner likes his ride and it is nice can respect that, can tell this vehicle hasnt ventured too far from pavement not that there is anything wrong with that, should be good "reliable" transportation like most any north american vehicle that just does alot of hwy miles and sticks to the easy stuff ...
No way the truck weighs 9000 pounds, stock it weighs about 5500 pounds, there is just no way he added about 4000 pounds in that.
They have a 1500 pound payload so he would be way overweight.
I was thinking more like 7kish.
That was what I was told when they shipped it
I'd say he'd be close to that sort of weight. All that gear adds up quickly. This guy certainly has all the gear and no idea. He'll learn the hard way if he actually wheels it hard. Here in Australia it's not uncommon to see heavy 100series at near 4t fully loaded, they are usually the ones that have problems outback. Better to keep them lighter at around 3.2t max.
@@SteveBurns80 indeed good luck getting getting a fully equipped rig within its gvm/gcm let alone a sane weight.
I have such mixed feelings about this. He basically purchased this with the front/rear and roof set up already. Its funny that they're in awe of the mileage. My FJ100 is at about 287k and still going strong. His seats are pretty cherry though, lol. I likely will have to redo my front driver side soon. Paint looks too perfect to me though - i'm a bit suspect, lol. Good luck to him - its an awesome rig!
Really nice rig.
Serious rig, nice!!
I wonder if this thing has ever been offroad
This is pretty much a standard build here in Australia. The Wheel offset is awesome tho! Love the stance and the new headlights make a world of difference!
Nice build for sure, though there is no way I’d have wheel spacers on a vehicle. Apart from modifying the stresses on the wheels and drive-train, they are not necessarily legal in Oz. Besides, why would you want to have wheels spraying stones all over the side of your vehicle anyway?
Yep so true but as usual everything the yanks do is so much better than everyone else according to them
The most amazing upload!
That was built by Kings Chariots in Jacksonville FL. They are an ARB dealer as well. They have clean LC but high on miles for a pretty penny.
Kings Chariot is a rip off. They buy cheap LC's and then throw every ARB or Dobinsons accessory in book on their vehicles and overcharge for them. I guess if you want a turn key rig sure but they have a very poor reputation on the Land Cruiser forums.
@@Gazziza29 this video proves otherwise. Quality rig inside and out with some of the best accessories on the market. They’re reputation is overwhelmingly positive all over the internet. As seen in this video if you put a kings rig on display you’ll have nothing but positive feedback and DROOLING. As he mentioned this LC is worth more now than when he bought it.
@@Bosque2010 BS. They have a terrible reputation on Land Cruiser forums. Go hop on ih8mud, probably the largest run Land Cruiser and GX460/470 enthusiast run in the US. They have piss poor reputation on there and are a running joke. There have been quite a few forum enthusiasts burned by Kings Chariot after buying vehicles from them. I'll give KC one thing, they are very aggressive in buying Land Cruisers or GX's throughout the US from auctions and then dress them up with ARB and Dobinsons parts. I'm sure they have a strong team that scours facebook marketplace, CL, and auto auctions buying vehicles at bottom dollar and charging an arm and a leg for them. Also if you have been paying attention, every Land Cruiser in good condition has gone up in value over the past 2-3 years. KC's Land Cruiser is not the rule to this. I guess it only takes one person who either has enough money or is desperate enough to pay their prices.
@@Bosque2010 Haha, you know what's funny Ruben? An easy google search and even browsing on King's Chariot page shows that YOU WORK FOR King's Chariot!!! Apparently the Bosque family runs KC. So why are you commenting on this video and speaking about KC as though you are an unbiased reviewer? "Quality rig inside and out with some of the best accessories on the market. They’re reputation is overwhelmingly positive all over the internet" - yeah, coming from you this means nothing. Your opinion is biased and the fact that you tried to speak about King's Chariot from a 3rd person just shows how scummy and dirty King's Chariot is. THANK YOU for proving my point.
@@Gazziza29 That’s usually all you find on a forum. Bunch of wanna be dealers and envious people with nothing they’ve built in the way of a vehicle or a business giving opinions behind a keyboard. I’ve been in the industry for years. I know all the top shelf dealers and I know the reps and mangers for ARB Dobinsons and ICON. Kings is as good as it gets and it wasn’t an easy road. Instead of getting your info from a forum where the qualifications for an opinion is enough money to buy a cheap computer and pick up the phone. Speak to industry reps who invest 100s of millions of dollars annually in the industry. Why would they post Kingschariot pics on their site and their Instagram if they didn’t have a high regard for their work and reputation. If our reputation was anything but stellar they’d stop selling to us. Almost every pic of a 80 100 and 120, 200 series on Dobinsons site is a kings chariot build. People who build and people who are berated in the industry are the only ones who know what it takes to be successful in the industry. Again you can quote me on this Kings has the best reviews on the internet and builds some of the best quality rigs with the best accessories AS seen in the video. This rig is an excellent example. Take care.
Beautiful LC. I love ARB like the rest, but Michael has A LOT of ARB accessories.
ARB does have the best bumper powder coat in the industry, hands down. Their air lockers are second to none as well. Other than that, I can't speak for their products, but I assume it's also top notch.
@@stanludorf2311 They test the gear hard in the outback and if they dont break it they test it harder
Beautiful rig...
I’ve a 2006, 4.2TD, 195k...kms! One owner...me. Maybe I’ll hold onto it for a while and upgrade a few bits. 🤔
Ha, that's nothing our 4.2td has 504,000 miles on the clock.
Awesome rig👍🏼
I just picked up an 06 with in good condition with less miles than the one in the video. Knowing everything I know about these things, I did not even flinch at the price or the mileage.
Found a 07 rare color with 98k miles, $24k should I jump on it
What’s the size and offset of the wheels?
Did you need wheel spacers?
What inch lift do you have on it 2” or 2 1/2”?
Nice ice tea sweater 👍👍👊
My 99 Lexus LX470 has 297K and I'd drive it to Alaska - I've done a ton of maintenance obviously and it's on the 3rd timing belt - all have been done at Lexus and was not cheap. Yes, these trucks are very reliable, but it's not like you don't have to spend quite a bit to keep them going, especially as they age.
Mine has the Ironman 4x4 Foam Cell Pro suspension lift, SPC uca, Metal Tech rear upper/lower links, extended sway bar links and on an on....I love it. It also has the Emu Wing rear gull wing windows. I might be selling it finally after 5 years.
Nice! seen this for sale. Would love to see it in the wild sir!
Really cool
Looks like a Long Range America tank would fit great under where that spare would be. More miles...
Soooo SICK!!!!!
how many inch tyre? can it fit 35inch mt tyres?
Whether or not he takes it offroad is really none of our business. It's his LC to do with as he pleases. It certainly gets driven a lot and that's cool in and of itself. But with the camping gear, I'd assume that he camps in the wild. Man, I'd love to have an ARB compressor and rear locker on my Tundra.
Heck, in '19, I was lucky enough to find an '05 Wrangler. 6 cylinders, 6 speeds just won't quit. Oh, and it has 75k miles on it.
I had paintless dent removal guy hit the hood. I then took my buffer to it and did a total paint correction job on what little paint there is on it. Kept the 3"lift and 1" body lift. Sold the rims and tires and put some fresh 15" black steelies with BFG 33 K02s.
I take it offroad and it gets plenty dirty, but then I clean the heck out of it. Mostly it's heavy Texas dirt, but very little mud. Personally, I think mudding is really stupid. Trails, rocks, hills, is where mine lives. Get it home and power wash even the tire treads. Frame, suspension, engine bay, you name it, gets detailed. I'm sure people think it's a mall crawler, but they'd be wrong! 🇺🇸
This truck has never been off-road. No scratches on the paint, every ARB Accessory under the sun with tags still on it. Glorified mall crawler LOL 😂
OMG.. I so LOVE this!!! 😍
@Michael S
Ignore the negativity. No matter what you share on yt, people will try to crap on it.
I seen a 2004 4 runner on marketplace yesterday and it had 0 problems apparently and has... never guess.... 425,000+ miles......😅
how big are the rims and tires?
what headlights have been used ?
What rear tail lights are they
Take a shot every time ARB is mentioned in this video 😆
All of this stuff looks suspiciously clean/unused
Holy cow yes 100%
Real bad ass.. who wouldn't love it..
Great video thanks! A+++ A1!!
Reminds me of some of the builds Kingschariot does. Looks great.
That is where I got it, they added on a lot of the extra ARB stuff
@@michaels3373 It is surreal how clean it is. I hope it serves you well for the next couple hundred thousand miles.
Something tells me this man kinda likes ARB
what wheels are those? got a 2002 and want to upgrade
This dude guaranteed got this from Kings Chariot in Florida -- they're currently selling a '95 Land Cruiser with all of these exact same mods, and they're an ARB dealer. They call it the Kings Chariot Overland Build lol
Nice build
Andre,what year is this land cruiser?Thanks
When did u replace the master brake booster? Looks new
Scrub bars run from the bullbar down to the back wheels. They are almost as strong as rock sliders but are more for small rocks and branches etc Nice and tidy touring rig.
Watching this video made me have more appreciation for the Land Cruiser series and for some reason and unexplanable hatred of Litewater products.
I love how none of this stuff looks like its ever been used , most of it has the stickers and tags still on it .
I really hope this guy plans on and actually uses this rig
He is selling/auctioning it off on tflbids. I’m like so tempted of getting it… I literally just found out about it and I don’t have enough time to get things figured out 😭
I have 105 series Landcruiser 4.5litre 677000km not sure wht is in miles but still run perfect
Nice and neat👌
I Love Land Cruiser V8s
Do you guys have an idea what a landcruiser can do? My Dad has a landcruiser 100 serial manual with 400000 km plus. N its still in great shape.
Yep have a 100 series 1hdfte turbo diesel with 565,000 kms on it and it still drives like a car with 165,000 kms on it they are legendary
Almost the same as mine but spent over 3 years and all my money and time building it myself. Pros and cons to that I guess. My paint is trash compared to his too.
The arb bumper is nice but the support to get help when the swing out pin wears out is non existent.
The gears and lockers cost me about what a old Jeep Cherokee would cost. But If you actually want to eye up some nasty stuff it’s probably worth it.
Info on the headlights?
Holy brand loyalty batman
Everything brand new not a speck of dirt not a single scratch anywhere not a single thing customized or personally modified. I would be surprised if that truck ever even hit a dirt road. Looks like it's all for show. How American.
That is an awesome rig.
If I need this same car so how I can get it
Did he pick that up from Kings Chariot in Jacksonville Florida?
Looks like it to me. Those guys are wonderful to do business with.
No front steel underplating?
This example looks like its from Kings Chariot in Jacksonville,Florida.
I'm curious on what the wheels and tires sizes are? That's a nice setup
Yeah I need those deets too
He said 33” wheels on the video.
Is it possible to show a 105 series Land cruiser on the channel? It's basically the same car minus the luxury interior and the V8. The 105 series had black bumpers, I believe, and the spare tire (tyre, depending on where you're reading from) was mounted on the back.
We didn't get the 105 in the US.
@@abqcrutch i know. They could feature it on their "Dude, I love (or hate) my ride: @Home edition" series. I'm sure one of their viewers would have one, stock or modified.
And most importantly, a SFA.
I believe the 105 was simply a100 body on an 80 chassis, it’s a shame we didn’t get any here in the USA
105 series = 80 series underpinning solid axles front and rear on a 100 series body!
Love seeing modified land cruisers, would like to see more land cruiser content
Not to steer you away from TFL but Ronny Dahl 4 Wheeling Australia has a Modified Series that covers many LCs plus the Aussies are so far ahead of us in America with modifications.
Gotta put a synthetic line and Factor 55 flat end link
Good Looking LC: Ever since I saw the Range Rover went through Panama Darien Gap in 1972-1973 with stock tires and minimal to no lift I gave up the idea of big fat tires. Ander SPW also recommends to stay with close to factory size tires. Leigh on GrizzlynBear showed the consequences of having wider tires and spacers (with extra weight) to his Defender 130.
Nice rig, ARB everything. You sponsored
You guys are hilarious... it's "eem you" not "e moo".
Nice setup though, g'day from Australia.
Спасибо за видео!
Someone likes ARB!
What are the rims specs
Quite the ARB ad.
Overloading any vehicle with ARB products doesn't make them automatically the best 4x4 ever, not saying that's not cool but the equipment depends on everyone's specific use
The truck is nice.
100 series is not bad, but My all time favorite landcruiser is LC80 series. Very rigid and solid front axle unlike 100 series CV joints
3:32 yeah you do… for that… dem 304’s haha
I own a 2003 land cruiser it has 380 klm V8 4.7 it has a two inch inch lift bullbar Tyers are coopers 285 x16 my mechanic has told me that I can drive around Australia without any problems my gas tank holds 140 liters never had any problems turn the key and go I am running high octane petrol I find that I get more klm per liter and more power as well if I run unleaded petrol I get less klm per liter and loose power
Liked everything but the promo battery pack, dual 6v work way better and cheaper
FANTASTIC it's back 😀
