I looked at the Mahindra back in 2012 . . . there wasn't a lot of information or accessories available out on them back then, but once the Mining Industry started using them . . . bits and pieces started popping up everywhere. As things go, I'm in a Ex Electrical Authority GU Patrol Ute now, but My Son is looking at buying his first 4WD in 2022, and for price and build strength, he is looking at the Mahindra. Will be interesting to watch your build Roothy.
In India, Tatas and Mahindra make very good cars, durable and Reliable vehicle but still they are struggling. Because of dealers and after sales service, rip off customers. You can buy Mahindra / Tata spare parts on eBay. Directly. Better to depend on yourself than on company or dealership network. Give preference to your own TRUSTED mechanic rather than Company appointed private Dealers. My solution is buy Tata and Mahindra, but don’t depend on free dealer services as they rip off customer.. Get the servicing and maintenance done by some local TRUSTED mechanic. Best selling Mahindra pick-up in India Mahindra Bolero Camper Pickup Mahindra Bolero Maxitruck Plus Pickup. Mahindra Bolero Pickup ExtraStrong Pickup. Mahindra Bolero Pikup 4×4 Pickup Mahindra Supro Maxitruck Pickup Mahindra Supro Minitruck Pickup. Mahindra pick-up here in India is selling for Rs ( Means Rupees ) Rs 7,00,000 to Rs 8,00,000 But I don’t know the price they are selling in Australia. You can convert the above amount into your currency. As I have told earlier once you buy these vehicles, you are on your own. Because here in India after sales service provided by private Dealers is pathetic and car buyers get tipped off. So I gathered, people better TRUST their local mechanic rather than the company or private dealership. Here in India a large number of private companies Manufacture spare parts of Mahindra and Tatas vehicle. So their spare parts would be much cheaper and widely available than OEM Manufactured by companies. I know people in India, who are still using 30 year old Honda motorcycles and spares are purchased from local Manufacturers. So you can buy a very popular model of Mahindra or Tata vehicles and keep using them for a very long time. As spares would always be available as they will be Manufactured by other private companies. You can buy spares online. Without being dependent on private dealership Actually Indian Vehicles are more cheaper, reliable and durable than Japanese / Korean Vehicles. But Japanese and Korean Manufacturers give better After sales service at their dealerships. Problem with Indian vehicles is that a lot of poor people especially those in transport sector buy these vehicles and dealerships can be heavily crowded with Taxi drivers / pick-up truck drivers and you will find yourself one amongst them. Most educated people in India don’t want to be counted amongst Taxi and Truck Drivers. So again sales of the Indian vehicle suffers. Japanese and Korean cars are overpriced and private Dealers treat their customers better as they have brought **EXPENSIVE** vehicles.
What a great no bullshit adventure to take people on. I admire people like you that give it a crack. I have just bought a new GWM Cannon and lm just about to do a similar thing. I want to show Great Wall what they should have built. Keep up the good work. Andy G
I'm definitely enjoying experiencing the Mahindra, albeit virtually with you. I firmly believe that these utes and twin-cabs will become somewhat legendary. Fleet buyers looking for a solid. no-nonsense 4WD should be looking closely at these. Very impressive vehicles.
You really don't have to worry too much about your new toy, these things are tuff and durable. The M Hawk 2.2s are a 500,000k motor. Change oil and filter every 5k, you know the rest. You won't be needing to wrench on this any time soon. Enjoy your new car. I have a 2.8ltr Cummins and I did not go over two and half thousand revs for the first 40,000ks, it pays to run it in for a long time, now I am getting 8.0lts per 100ks, cruises happily at 100ks at 1700rpm stay safe
Hi Roothy, Normal sockets fit those wheel nuts as well. I have them too and it looks like you have to use the adapter, but sockets also fit and work. Cheers
Roothy I highly recommend giving ceramic coating a try. I've had Avalon King (from the States) on my new Mazda for two years and I swear by it. Dirt doesn't easily cling to the surface and so a lot of it is just washed away by water. It helps keep the exterior cleaner (i.e. less car wash maintenance!) and increases the life of the paint by a number of years.
Got mine a few months ago. First new 4 Wheel Vehicle (Had New Bikes) got a Warranty even, how goods that! And uses a third of the fuel of the Old Ranger. Mahindra Pik Up, pastoral pack like yours and HD Ali tray. NICE just as it is and with plenty of power.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY I don't have the Flash one Wheels mate. Happy with the Steel Wheels and Wheel nuts. I (pretty much) drove mine from the dealer across the road to the Rust Proof bloke. I figured first new truck; damn the expense let the pros do it. Bugger all in the scheme of outlay on a new truck and another Warranty. I figure i'll have it for a while and i live at the beach.
Be careful with those long wheel nut adaptors rooth. I just got new rims, went to use the adaptor, the length of it and the Toyota standard wheel brace made it go a little bit sideways on the first but and the adaptor fully cracked down the side!
That Mahindra will out live you and me mate.There are still plenty of Kingswood's around as well, and I don't have any 40 years + in me I would be 110 years by than
The rust proofing on the Mahindras from factory is pretty good . After looking over mine i have decided not to add anymore. All i have done is use diametric grease on the electrical connectors and that's it. Even then i don't think they need it .
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY All good mate . Some extra prep on cars is always a good idea weather you need it or not, hope you enjoy the Mahindra as i am loving mine.look forward to more videos from you
Could you swap the wheels for a set of the 16” steelies off the S6? They would be more bush proof then the aftermarket 17s on the black series and allow for more sidewall
Looks like this is it - and it mounts to the bar, relies on it for strength - you could get one fabricated pretty easy, just don't let them go more than 3mm = strong enough but not so strong it ywists anything. Good luck and keep me in the loop with your vehicle over time - thanks Dan.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY thanks for looking into it for me, I will endeavour to fab one up soon as the sump is right out there, looking over the space should be a no-brainer to fab up a bash plate. ill keep you in the loop
Hi Roothy, I've finished putting in the winch, got a Kings one. I changed it a bit, didn't like the solenoid box on the bull bar, there's a spot behind the bullbar thats just the right size for it (and threaded) if you take it out of the plastic box, then I just ran extra wire for the plug and mounted the plug only on the bull bar, much nicer and room for a light bar that I'll add later.
Other than being a rust bucket (compared to current standards), here in India. This is an abuse friendly, easy on parts and DIY maintenance brand product.
Not as such. If I was I wouldn’t be allowed to modify it!! They gave me a good deal but I would have got similar from anyone I think. They are also paying for some filming if they can use it on their website.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY yes Roothy each to their own. Keen to see what you do to her and how you build her up. I know you're all about Aussie made but if you're on a budget iTechworld sell some good gear and lithium batteries too if you're looking for a duel battery system with a 120amp under $2k
i have always been a Toyota man meself. I swore I would never ever by Mahindra. Seeing that the Hiluxes re getting ridiculously expensive I decided to by a Mahindra and try and save my Hilux from everyday abuse. I am still pee'd off with meself. why did I spend so much money on HILUX when the Mahindra can do the same job. I'm not after luxury or fancy gimmicks after all. Nah.. I am sold. I love my Mahindra. it is ugly as hell and yes my daughters refuse to get into it but that makes it a blessing in disguise....
Spoken like, err me actually. I refused to buy something made on the same assembly lines in Thailand and Argentina as the other 'Japanese' vehicles yet they charge so much more for the name!!! Toyota lost it after the 105...
Mate brought one just too use for farm work , nothing hard any 4WD could not handle … Leaf springs snapped on one side , WTF!! I have never heard of leaf springs snapping after 20 years 4WDriving up the Vic High Country hahaha

Enjoying watching something other than a 79 series
Keep up the good work Roothy
I love the sound of a fat 79 but prefer a 4 cylinder for touring. Less breakages and double the miles per dollar.

Loving the content mate. Just cause you are paying top dollar doesn't mean the best. The Mahindra seems like a no nonsense reasonably priced rig.

it seams to be pretty well built aye if its holding up to your use it must be an ok rig im loving these vids john keep em coming cheers
Early days yet but the one I borrowed for a year was great. Stay tuned, unless
Something goes wrong this is a
Long term test and develop.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY im keen budy staying tuned hehe
Got some steel seal on the back of your advice a few weeks back. Really happy so far, rear leafs even stopped squeaking which was a bonus.
Be careful with those long wheel nut adaptors rooth.

Yes I don’t like the idea at all. Thanks mate
What you are spraying on it?
Lanotec - a lanolin based oil. Don;t kbnow if it's available where you are?
That Mahindra will out live you and me mate.There are still plenty of Kingswood's around as well, and I don't have any 40 years + in me I would be 110 years by than
Too true old mate!
one bloke that should not be questioned by keyboard worriers. There are plenty on you tube for that instead of Roothy
And Roothy had a beard just like now when he was a kid! True fact!
Ssshhhhhh. Don’t tell anyone.
🤫🤭
You're looking pretty happy there Roothy. Just read your column in AMCN, you better buy that Triumph 1200 scrambler to match the new ute mate.
Just spent all the money!! Trumpy was awesome but too tall - and too new - for me.
Awesome as roothy 👍
Hi Roothy, whats the recommended products from Lanotect to Rust Proof a Landcruiser 76 series please?
Does the Mahindra use AdBlue? or is it a Diesel that doesn't need it? Keep the videos coming too!
No it doesn’t need that stuff. Thanks
The rust proofing on the Mahindras from factory is pretty good . After looking over mine i have decided not to add anymore. All i have done is use diametric grease on the electrical connectors and that's it. Even then i don't think they need it .
Yes you might be right but for the sake of a
Morning I wanted to do what’s always worked for
Me in the past.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY All good mate . Some extra prep on cars is always a good idea weather you need it or not, hope you enjoy the Mahindra as i am loving mine.look forward to more videos from you
Beauty Nick - and keep me in the loop with how you go with yours. Im loving mine but it's early days - cheers
Could you swap the wheels for a set of the 16” steelies off the S6? They would be more bush proof then the aftermarket 17s on the black series and allow for more sidewall
Am looking into that right now - and light truck tyres.
Roothy, I have a 6 month old Ute. Would it be ok to use the Steel seal inside the chassis like you did in the episode
I use it in my 40 year old utes! Clean it and flush as much dirt out as you can first - it soaks through and protects. 👍👍
Hey Roothy is there a reason you didn't go with the factory snorkel? Or do you just want to play with that yourself? Cheers mate
I don’t think much of that style of
Snorkel breathing wise. And yes it’ll be fun to play pipes!
New nickname for the ute (Lano) short for Lanotec
Sheepish??
Does anyone knows if there is a (non-bull bar) sump guard available?
Not t sure mate. Will ask when I can. Thanks

The lanotec is made by bp or and other company ROOhTY .where do you get it .
GARRY.
Roothy shop mate. Roothy.com. That way I can always get it!!
Inspecting an alien craft.
High rise exhaust. Behind the cab
Needs an exhuast - it's squashed to go under chassis - and they all need an exhaust anyway!!!
Hey Roothy, waiting for an Update as you probably got a lot of km on it already!
Not a lot yet - early days!
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY well you got a new video out, thats something!
Is the Air-cleaner on the roof roothy?🤣
It will be one day!

I'm in the middle of putting a winch on mine at the moment, the first one I've done, so heavy.....
Go for a rope instead of wire Chris, that'll save a few kgs. I'm going that way eventually - let me know how you fo! Thanks

given your location you could probably sell mahindrah parts on ebay or something , they are slowly getting a reasonable reputation here.

Give me a couple of years to really test her but so far definitely so good!
Hey Roothy ARE you a Mahindra advocate? Not a dig at you....just a question.
Not as such. If I was I wouldn’t be allowed to modify it!! They gave me a good deal but I would have got similar from anyone I think. They are also paying for some filming if they can use it on their website.
