Would you sell front grill landcruiser
So your not using the nice jeep body
Brother, that FJ is basically a VIN number at this point.... I'd see what Ol' Paul Cox is willing to part with for a cab. Probably not much, but he'd be the guy to have something (unless you want to 4x4 a charger, check the wheelbase.. 1 inch apart...hahaha!)
Jack Rabbit is perfect Hillbilly 👌🏼
💯 %
He struggles with talking and is annoying. Liked it better when he didn't speak.
LycanHD, why be such a jerk? If you don't like his speech, don't watch the videos.
Jackrabbit is the perfect name.
@@jeffreyhunt8204 I mute his part.
Jack Rabbit for sure man. Paying homage to your uncle is awesome and it’s a great name for an off-road rig.
Hell yeah, to jack rabbit
Perfect name , just respect for him
Yes!
JR.
Jack Rabbit is the perfect way to honor your uncle. Fits perfectly!
Robby, seriously, YOU, Hillbilly & Demri make me so happy... You guys warm my heart & aid in fighting my thoughts of depression and sadness. I love this channel 🤩Thank you 💙
Dragnfl. I’m fighting same. Yes Robby’s family and friends are inspiration builders for you and I. You are not alone. Best to you
“You should probably get out from under it. Do we have a Plan B?” The Boss is always the Voice of Reason!🤣🤣🤣
That Toyota makes Ed’s Golden Nugget Suzuki look like an all original survivor car. Whew! You shouldn’t be surprised Robby.
Thank you all for giving a old biker a good Sunday laugh. Riding Harleys for 50 years has taught me to use lock tight, and to add lithium grease on gaskets to stop oil leaks. Not to rig and only use new parts to avoid break downs. Also keep a nice pair of sneakers in your road bag for the unexpected walk. I noticed you pulled the primary and torqued it without a chain locker. I would bet that it loosened and is banging around. buy a Jims locker tool take her apart and check you primary side repair work. Pacific Mike and Kevin Baxter are great Harley repair you Tubers also Hammer Performance has many You tube videos . Demeri keep the boys inline and I hope your proud of how much everyone loves and admires you all.
That's a bummer about the FJ55. But I'm sure you will come up with something better. Happy Father's Day, to all the dads at Robby Layton Nation, including the viewers.
Thank you, same for every body
Not sure if I missed it but what happened with the thieves that stole your brothers stuff? They get found? Thanks as always for the laughs and fun! Demri’s giggle at the end is the cherry on top 😀
I've been wondering the same thing
Me also.
Been wondering the same thing 👍
me too
HOLD UP !!!! about your harley problem , check the compensator nut (the nut that holds the stator rotar and front primary sprocket in place) the one you removed to replace the stator , if it has come loose it will make a knocking noise (as if its a bottom end problem) most likely it's loose if so use a little red lock tight and tourqe to spec.
Agreed. There is no reason for that bike to have a bottom end problem. However, I additionally suggest that the cylinder base gaskets might have blown on account of the motor being revved on a cold start before the motor comes up to temperature.
I want to say Happy Father's day to the father's of the Robby Layton crew.
Hillbilly I think the name Jack Rabbit is a perfect name because it is a great way to pay respect.
The Boss is true savage with her commentary. How could anyone get annoyed with someone so sweet and innocent.
As a former FJ55 owner, I can attest that the body on that one is about par for the course. They evidently came ready-to-rust from the factory. I wish you the Best of Luck in finding a decent one, for all its faults and built-in air conditioning and celestial observation ports, it was a fun vehicle. Especially in a rainstorm! Can't wait to see if you can build one!
In those years we called them all Toyota Corodas which were made from the finest antique soup and coffee cans a garbage scow could carry. Back then on some early Japanese products that I repaired that had small to medium flat or rolled sheet metal panels you could still read the labels of the MaxwellHouse coffee cans they used to make some items after they cut the ends off and rolled them back into flat sheets. Since the insides of the tin cans were usually in better condition they faced out and were the only surfaces that were coated/painted and they left the painted label side alone. They've come a long way since way back then.
JackRabbit is a fine way to go and perhaps take it a step further and include your Uncles first name such as Bill's Wild JackRabbit or Mountain JackRabbit.
Hoping on the Harley its as some have suggested and just a nut on the primary sprocket not tightened to spec and come loose. Check out itshildo on RUclips, a builder from the Netherlands, who appears to know how to get just about any combination of Harley parts (no matter how incompatible they may seem) working like a very deafeningly loud Swiss watch.
Best!
I think they use all the scrap metal from their old WW2 battle ships and downed Zeros as well as all the metal from the bombs dropped on them by the Allies.
@@billclisham8668 I didn't know that they put MaxwellHouse coffee can labels inside the Zeros, etc.
What I am saying is from firsthand personal experience with Japanese goods manufactured and purchased new in the 1960's and 1970's. Not all items were like that such as their high end cameras and such however what would be considered commodity goods often were. Some were tin children's toys and others were items such as small off-brand thermoses with sheet metal housings. Some would catch you by surprise while with others you kind of expected it.
Got a pair of light Japanese binoculars at a fair in 1969 that had an odd reflection when you looked through them and on disassembly you could clearly see the coffee cans label inside them when you expected it to be painted flat black inside. I coated the insides with flat black paint and they were much better afterwards. They were very cheap and not very powerful so I didn't really have high expectations but they were better than nothing.
Best!
Jack Rabbit is the way to go! I have a 1990 Chevy 454 that was my Dads, his handle was The Grey Ghost. If i ever get the means to fix this truck i will honor him that way great idea!!!
Jackrabbit is perfect Hillybilly esp since it was the CB call sign of your uncle :))
Hillbilly Jack rabbit is awsome and ya uncle would be so happy. Great video as always 👍
unfortunately the 55 series landCruisers where prone to rusting even when they lived in the desert the roof drip rails would just rust out i wish you good luck to you in your endeavours sir your going to need it
I vote this channel as the best comedy venue on RUclips. 👍👍👍 Very entertaining and educational as well.
Robby you are a real hard worker. You are never afraid to get dirty or work on anything. Love your Channel and it is something to look forward to seeing. Thank all of you's that help make these videos
that knock in that harley is probably nut came lose on primary sprocket on the chain you all had off when you replaced stator..
Happy Father’s Day to Robby and crew.
That FJ55 Body is Toast
FJ55 parts are really, really hard to find. You should 100% be getting those parts to people who need them!
Send the Harley to Sean (B&B) to get it running! Now that he’s moved to TN he might be a little closer to you.
That FJ body looks like a Michigan car after 5 years. Ya gotta love the rust belt part of the country.
This Harley story is going exactly as God planned! Many many many hours of tinkering and roadside repairs. But what else should life be? Perfection is Imperfection embraced :)
Amen
If you ain’t wrenching’, it ain’t a Harley! I’ve heard that wrenching is half the fun!
my dad a navy guy and a Goldwing guy said you buy a Honda to ride and a Harley to work on
@@accelement3499 Ouch!
@acelement3499-🤣🤣🤣
I know Robby has to spend a lot of time doing the "boring" day to day stuff running his business. But I'm super happy he trust and allows Hillbilly to run the show from time to time. You guys have the perfect chemistry. Glad to see y'all living a great life!
I thought about it Hillbilly. Since Jackrabbit was someone else's name and the crawler will be a Toyota/Jeep hybrid. A Jackrabbit and an Antelope is a hybrid creature, that "The Jackalope" would be a good name.
Good morning from Siesta Key Florida
Happy Father's Day to all the dads
Dude! Thank you for promoting Better Help! Being men’s mental health awareness month, it’s very important to address this!!!! Please, do not be afraid to get help!!!
Jackrabbit!! ❤
That’s perfect !
17:25 OH YEAH BABY FIREWORKS!!!
Even though it is a sad circumstance, it is heartening to know that there are some rabbit holes you won't race down.
Good luck finding the right body. Please keep an open mind to what model body to use.
happy Father's day to the crew...Jackrabbit would be a great honor to your uncle...sorry to see all the rust it looks like it lived it's life hard running machine....and hillbilly you have a Harley that's great and great videos 📹 if you're road trip.....demeri 😀 the voice of reasoning.....happy father's day..keep making great videos 📹 and bringing us along for the adventures 😀 😊 👍..
Beat part of the whole video...when Demri burns Hillbilly! 😂😂😂
Perhaps cut all of the inner structure out. Just leave the skin like a funny car body. The wheel wells will be cut anyway to clear the tires. Rock sliders handle the sills. Build a tube birdcage to support the body panels or could even be an exo if you like that look. Build your own floor - could even be expanded metal depending on how hard core you want that thing to be. You don't need any of what is most rusted.
Keep up the good work love watching you on RUclips
I like jack rabbit and using his old cb handle. The truck my uncle Bob left behind is now called Bob.
Great video as always!
Happy Father’s Day Dads !!!
19:20 Robby looking out for "Demri" the boss lol thats sweet 🤷♂️🤷♂️😁 it really is tho🤷♂️😁
Jackrabbit fits perfectly
And the dream goes on.... it'll be all good.. it all works out in the end! Thx for the share😉
This will be a great build. Can’t wait to see the finish.
I think that it would be awesome to honor your uncle's memory like that and I love y'alls videos
Hillbilly, Jackrabbit sounds perfect. What a great way to keep the memory of your uncle alive. 😊
As a FJ55, Iron Pig, owner I can attest they love the rust. My floorboards are currently road signs I acquired.
toyota used that fan to cool the carb to prervent vapor lock.
Great video....i love ❤ the cam shots and narration....lol
Ah man rotten deal on the FJ... BUT something will surface. Stay the course and going with the FJ. it's different from what everyone else is using. Time to get the Harley on the bench. Many options and directions to go with it. Just depends on how much you want to spend and what style you're going for. Either way looking forward to seeing what's next for both projects. 😎👍
The FJ looks as it was used as beach rescue vehicle.🤣
I hope the donor body is the same exact body as the FJ55 that you already have because that build idea was growing on me and I was starting to like it and I even caught myself waiting in participation for the next video of the FJ55 build on the XJ frame but now I hope you either find another body just like it or an old Toyota body or an International body to put on that frame
Wouldn't another FJ55 be exactly the same as this one? Minus the rust?
Hilarious when the jumper cables were arcing 😅
That FJ is seriously crispy! The only thing keeping it together is the tinworms holding hands.
Gives it generic name „rust cruiser“ a richly deserved new meaning
Going to be such a sweet rig
Demri's giggling is pretty darn cute.
Jackrabbit is a great name for the Toyota. That is a fitting tribute to your Uncle.
Have a Milwaukee tire inflater. Got rid of my small compressor, the Milwaukee flat rocks.
What model is the Milwaukee air compressor? Looking for a good portable unit and that looks l in e it will fit the bill.
@@fhgaylor Milwaukee Inflator. Runs off the 18 volt batteries. I sold my compressor after getting one; flat fills up motorcycle and truck tires PDQ!
Robby I love you guys! I grew up with a body shop on our property, my whole life. You’re fighting with the LS jeep so you can drive it to the rack. It took 4 X as long and saved you no time. I used to do the same thing when dismantling engines. If I took off a bracket, it would have saved me 20 minutes and bloody knuckles but I’m kinda stubborn. Y’all are fluffing awesome though!
Ooooh! Shots FIRED! Th' Boss is mean! My 5.0 has blown MANY Chevs AWAY.
Jackrabbit is a cool name Hillbilly, and you work on cars , didn't you know the steering column unbolts from the dash and just slide it inside out of your way. No having to wait to move the cab. And the cab will be easier to move if your not worried about breaking the steering column.
That brings whole new meaning to rust bucket!!! Just DAMN hopefully sombody can come through with a better body!!!!
Quite professional 🙌yay!
Hillbilly trimmed and shaved and looks alot better. Happy Father's day and hope everyone has a great day.
I love the fact that Hillbilly still uses the hardhat insert
Jackrabbit is a perfect name Hillbilly! Great job!
8:10 carb cooling fan. 60 series have them too
Love the video
Happy Father's Day
Love that giggleling.
*Keep the top!*
Keep the top. If I saw correctly in a previous video, the top is good. FJ55s are notorious for rusting through along the rain gutter, so bad that you used to be able to buy a replacement top to weld in at the pillars. You might find a body somewhere that's in good shape except along the gutters. Mine was.
What a grand day for families. Happy Father's Day.
Nice one !!!!
My FJ-55 was crazy fun! I look forward to what you create! I know it's going to be great!
Goatee is looking good Hillbilly...like the name for the FJ too.
I agree with you Hillbilly......
Jackrabbit was and still a great handle.
👍🏻
Can’t think of anything more appropriate than Jackrabbit. Let the Jackrabbit roll.
I've owned a pile of FJ40's. I've never owned a 55. Every one I've seen has rusted into oblivion. I'm sure you can find an awesome body for the Jeep even if its not a 55!
Carburetor cooling fan runs after key off until it cools down. Prevents vapor lock from hot-soaking.
Sounds great Hillbilly remember your family
Well at least there's one good thing: happy Father's day and have a blessed
Week amen.
What a bummer on the Toyota ! And you paid good money for it ! Thanks for sharing !
@Hillbilly The skid plate that is welded to the oil pan is toyota stock ... my 74's FJ40 has that as well. So have all the FJ LC I've everworked on.
Demri with the major truth bomb on the 5.0
Thats a good air pump to hv man i aint ever saw one that little work thst great...
Sweet I need one of those air pumps
Even your failures are wins. Great video!
Jack Rabbit is the name of names. Has a history and is just cool. Needs an awesome graphic on the sides to go with it.
If it was a 1983 Olds Cutless, I am sure the Underground Paint King would buy it. He's in the same boat as you and bought a complete rust bucket, hoping he could salvage it. Sometimes our impulse buys get the best of us.
Happy Fathers day Robby, love the videos and what you are all about, keep up the awesome work!
For the fj..... it should be built out of tube with whatever panels you can salvage as the skins so it kinda still looks like an fj but BETTER.
Happy haircut HillBilly. Also where is the BroncStar ? Is it still up the canyon ?
Not surprised with the FJ rust. The old Toyotas are known to have very poor corrosion protection. Hopefully you can source a decent replacement. Maybe the guy that FabRats bought his FJ from has another.
My uncle drug a 40 Ford coupe out of the woods in the same condition 😢..
We welded pipe 4 inches above the floor pan around the perimeter of the body ?? Attached a 10 point cage to support the body above perimeter pipe 🤔.. Cut the body flush with the perimeter pipe... welded it to a Mazda truck frame 😂 used a 390 LTD drive train 😱 1800 dollar drift car go Cart!!!!!!! A lot of fun 😉👍. That
Toyota still has some Life Left 🤔😉
Enjoy your adventures in life 🤠✌️
Jack Rabbit sounds awesome! 🙏🏻💜🐰
Kind of hoping you go with a different shell. That FJ55 didn’t seem to appealing. But that’s the beauty of building your own vision. It’s yours. Push on Robbie and ima keep viewing on!! Thanks for all you do.
2:22 Jackrabbit it is😎
"He says fun stuff, it's more like more dirty stuff" 😂 hillbilly calling out robby 🤣
AWESOME!
