    Hello from Japan!
    I want my Land Cruiser BJ74 to be refreshed too!
    It may be strange because I made a sentence with Google
    ランクルBJ74大好き❤

      Hello , the sentence came out fine . It is very satisfying getting a older vechicle reliable and back on the road . Real pleasure to drive compared to new cars . Thank you for watching ! And thank you to Japan for making my favourite vechicles !

    Hi! This thing looks unreal, great job! Any chance you know where I'm likely to find a BJ74 in Australia? Cheers.

      Hi , cheers . I got very lucky and got mine from a very good friend that didn't use it . They are getting hard to find and getting pricey . Best chance is to join some landcruiser Facebook groups (BJ74 group and mid wheel base landcruiser group)
      As they are often advertised on there .

    Hello. I'm in the process of planning a refresh on the same truck except mine is in a lot worst shape then yours. Anyways I'm wondering what are those body lift jacks called (3:04)? Perhaps you can send me a link to where you purchased them. Ty.

      Hi , im glad your putting in the effort to get another middy healthy again , it will be worth it in the end , I still smile like a idiot driving mine years after .
      The jacks in the photo are modified Ebay caravan leveling jacks, I initially modified them to suite lifting toolboxes off my Ute ( added height to bottom section and castors to let it roll , and decent square tube to carry load with gussets ) also made some mounts to catch the factory fuel tank bolting position at back and front I think some holes where the gaurds bolted too . Unfortunately with out a car lift you have to get crafty like me , it can be done . Just search caravan jacks in ebay and I think they are around $200 for 4

    I am just restore my 70 series, and I am hestitate to go in the mud. Just for dry mild offroad and go to the mall😄

      I dont like deep mud as well , but sometimes theres no choice to go around . This is why i didnt restore the paint becuase off road its only a matter of time before scratches happen .

      @krissfpv4079  Před 2 lety +1

      Yes , at first I bought a fibreglass copy , but the fitment was so bad I sent it back . Then I got lucky and found a genuine toyota steel one 👍
