Build the camera mounts into the dash so you dont have so many mounts stuck on the windows and so. Also provide power at the mount for those cameras
Good idea
@@kriswigginsvideo No its not a good idea! Sell all of the camera mounts on gumtree & get a super model looking wife with over inflated lips to hold the cameras for you, like another tuber whom I wont mention :0)
@@leonkane8240 ah people do what they do.
@@kriswigginsvideo My making fun of puffy lipped, attention whore women aside.
I agree with your initial comment, my agreeing with you in my 1st comment would of rendered my self serving dig @ puffy lipped women nonsensical.
I have driven for a living for 35 years & I hate those suction windscreen mounts for all of the obvious reasons.
I have even gotten in to vehicles where they have bought the cheapest & nastiest mount/craddle on the market.
It eventually falls off & wont suck any more (because it sucks) & then they spin the wheel o fish & silicon it to the dash or console & then when that falls of screw it into the dash or console with self tappers.
Destroys dashes, damages devices & usually well before the self tapping screws the cradle mount has fallen of so many times that the cradle mech no longer works anyway.
Over the years I have bought Ram mounts, while they are not perfect & hugely expensive, they are decent quality,
( I think there are a few others brands that do more high end mounts also)
Of cause their quality & price won't save you if you silicon & screw them into your dash skin.
It pays to fix it into the more significant dash substructure. It is worth the extra time & money to "mount" mounts some where other than the wind screen.
But like you wrote " ah people do what they do".
@@leonkane8240 who are you on about?
Love how Shauno says “wanna build this in me shed, with a couple of mates”.
All Shauno’s mates = industry experts!! Love it. Keep it up mate 👍🏻🍺
Wonder how much it costs the “mates” to help???
just beers and pizza
@@GappledUp and exposure.. the shout out alone is worth a LOT.
@@rodwrecker
Amen !!!
None are his mates. Sponsers… meeting them… doesn’t make you mates.
Shauno: mad driver, mechanic, leader, comedian, chef, and now painter.
Gour-met chef haha
And fisherman
Welder, fisherman, husband
Shauno is the Johnny sins of the 4wd scene
not far away form Johnny Sins
One of the best episodes hands down. Can’t wait to see this beast go through Coffs Harbour
will it blow soot
@@danieldelbridge8341 its called "sooty" for a reason
hopefully she dosent roll over :)
I should not be this keen to watch a build of a 4wd for a bloke I don't even know. love the channel keep up the good work. cheers 😊
Drainplug in the footwell, like the gelendewagen, could be handy. Some water crossings will probably happen...maybe ;)
Remember that Suzuki they took to tassie (if you Remember that far)
It had drain plugs in the floor.
Needs drain plugs in front of every seat I think just as a precaution lol
@@sethparkinson1023 who are talking to me?
@@eliyilmaz6983 hwy sorry lol didnt hir reply but nah the other guy, im not too familiar with the zook havent seen it for a bit
Drain plugs are awesome, but there is a catch, hit a mud bog with a litte too much enthusiasm (second low a go go go {classic shawno}) they pop in and so dose the water.
What I like about this channel, is the honest excitment you blokes have for off road, and what your doing, it is infectious.
I love seeing rebuilt and reconditioned blocks on engine stand. There's something about it that just makes you want to rebuild a rig of your own.
"That doesn't look too hard..." 😅
@@4WD247 It's always the insidious part of all videos like this. Trick you into thinking it's doable so easily and motivate you so hard that you start trying, then you loose a day on one grippy bolt and realize what a mistake it was xD
It’s always the freshest the block will ever be.
@@berjerk3425 it would obviously be difficult but seeing an abused engine look new is well worth it.
Watching from Kentucky USA, love the show have been watching for a few years now. Glad to see ya get the sooty fixed back up. Cant wait to see ya wheel it. Always a big fan and always be safe.
135 likes in 2 mins….your doing something right mate!
Watching this from Tucson, AZ USA.....while rebuilding the front end of my 4x4.....the raptor looks great on Sooty M2. Can't wait to see it chuggin' smoke!
Missing watching sooty already. Can’t wait to see mrk2 in action !
I live for this channel. The misso wasn’t to happy when I found Yous because I watched everything now she’s just as hooked as I am keep up the good work boys!
Haha exactly the same here mate
Same!
Feels 👌🏼
Yous? FFS mate, get an education.
@@unclebob5686 oh wow here comes the grammer police 😂😂 shiver me timbers
Gotta say, brilliant build!! A few mates really means professionals that can guide you through it. 👍 looking forward to seeing the big soot back out.
A little tip when pushing soot (and any other rig) around the shed (saw you struggling in the vid a bit). Rather than push it from the front or rear bars, just rotate one of the wheels and it rolls way easier.
Especially on big wheels
Push backwards using legs.
Love this build bro! please dont make us wait months to see another update...
She's looking like a million bucks Shauno, well done. So glad you will still have an 80 on the tracks to drool over and strive for. 👌👌
Love how the build is coming along Shauno , For your mods a sealed water cooler alternator , no more mud getting in and killing it 👍
I remember when a mate was respraying his car he held a rubbing down party. He supplied the brews, burgers and tunes, and we made a day of it. Had great fun, and he got lots of help with the prep work. The end result looked really good. It was much more fun than taking ages to do it all himself.
Can't wait to see sooty run
Gotta love it, seeing a build makes you go out and refresh you own rig. Fix those little things you have been putting off. Keep it up Shauno. Great episodes
Make sure you seal all the edges of the dynamat so you can't get water seeping in.
It really does help when you can get experts to come to you, unlike what most people can get.
Watching all this from belgium… it’s like watching a tv show from heaven. Awesome!
I know he tries to hide it, but I love Shauno's humility.
Excited for the build, busy with one myself too, definitely roof rack, tent etc keep us updated with what extras you thinking of.
Sooty is looking great! cannot wait to see her lifting wheels again! Well done Mate!
SOOTY 2.0 looking great, nice job Shauno
👌👌
Great episode @4WD 24-7
Got a heap done. Surely some fresh fulcrum suspension and kinselas customs front flipped arms would freshen up that suspension
Love this build so far you are certainly aspiring a build of my own. I think you should do a big Android touchscreen for the entertainment system, something that can run maps and a reverse camera.
Sooty needs rear scrub bars this time to protect those nice flares
Wow mate. I’m also building a 80 series. HDT. Love that paint. Thanks for sharing. Frito.
Looking mint so far Shauno 👌
Been waiting for this vid feels like forever 20 seconds in im already loving it keep it up big fella love the content 👍
I just got a new rig to play with so I’ll be doing some of this stuff here soon myself all mine needs is a lot of maintenance and the aftermarket mods.
Looks incredible Shauno!!!
Shauno I don’t know .you but watch all your videos and must say you sound a top guy …and very informative.great stuff mate ..
I think Sooty MK2 could use a decent light setup for the late nights on the tracks.
Shauno.. you got a bit of that gray paint in your hair mate, gotta watch that over spray.
💗 She is looking so nice!!! Uber excited to see her on the road again and see what she can do when she’s out to the test!!! 💗
Im drooling watching this knowing full well my 80 series sitting in the shed will never look this mint😍but it gives me heaps of inspiration and motivation to keep modding it
And there we were all thinking the sound deadening was courtesy of the 25mm of mud in the footwells? Lol. Its looking good Shaun, hate to see the bill.
Sooty 2.0 hasn't got any mud yet so quality sound deadening is a must 😅
This is great, I love 80s (as I love mine) and seeing one saved is always a bonus. They’re one of the best ever stock off-road vehicles, and when modded, they are the best.
However, the rust you found under the rear glass should have been cut out and new metal welded or brazed back in. IMO rust like that cannot be stopped, only stalled, it will be back to haunt you.
Otherwise, you should call it ‘Sooty Too’ or some such, ‘cos it ain’t ‘Sooty’. 🤣👍🏻❤️🇷🇴
I'm in New York I want one too!
The dogs chilling out is the best bit
LOOOOVE the build series’ on all your channel builds! Been hanging for these videos of Sooty Mk2 for ages!! Nice work mate, cheers for the entertainment over beers! Can’t wait to see her on the tracks
Looks amazing mate. It will be great if you put some price tags in the end
I wonder what weapon is under that car cover Shaun ? 🤔
Look forward to seeing sooty mk II online
A small Landcruiser 🤫
@@4WD247 rotar
Interesting. As shauno said he has never owned a 2wd car and never would LOL 🤣
@@4WD247 I hope that means what I think it does ppppp
Personally, I love that the antenna got masked off instead of removed 😉
Thanks for sharing the build, these types of videos are just as fun as the trips. 👍🏻
Thanks for the share Shauno! Sooty is my favorite rig; I'm so glad you found a way to keep her alive!!!
Some little final touches:
- clear side indicators, LED's
- Decent set of lightly smoked front and rear lights LEDs
- of course a new set of wheels 🙂.
Excited to see sootyV2 on the tracks
Looks so good can’t wait to see it on the road again
Same!!
Worldwide, the 80 is gaining on its legendary status as the best Cruiser ever made. Saving and improving an 80 like this is not only self-rewarding, but seeing another one saved is magical. Cheers Shauno, REALLY love the build series!! Thank you for sharing all of it.
A couple of length wide reflective tape strongly attached to both sides of the recovery kit bag would be a welcome addition as it would make the rope easier to see in torchlight and could be used as a safety warning to others at night in most low light situations 🤔
Nice job Mate!
Do you consider to put a second fuel filter system into this beast? And what about an rear air bag system for leveling the rear section when towing heavy stuff?
I can't wait to see the next episode. Best regards from Hungary.
Hi e doesn't tow a lot with sooty the 80
Would love to see 300hp behind sooty and maybe a auto with reduction gears ? 😜
Can't wait to see this weapon on the tracks!!!
Awesome build. Love the darker gray with the black front bumper and bar with the black trim. Look forward to seeing this build hit the trails!!!
Get Graham to buy a rear winch for sooty to make his recoveries easier 🤣🤣
Aftermarket head lights with hail lights and led tails give it a new face
All the details in this build that you have shown us Shaun'o, in my eyes this build is just as good as the Oombulgurri track episode 👌
You covered so much info in the ole sooty rebuild cheers and keep them wheels spinning and super hot feeds coming 🌶🌶🌶🥘🍻
Awesome to see this build, cant wait until its finished. Get a roof rack this time but dont get a rooftop. The dirty 30 and 200 are for touring, but this is a tough track weapon and a swag suits that better imo. 2.5-3" lift, 35s and the reduction gears that you mentioned will make this truck unstoppable. good luck
Not so much as a mod, but definitely needs a sun visor/windscreen peak, would look 100%
First!
Here’s ya medal 🥇 ya stooge

Love when you guys have a build series and show the process!
i think sooty is just a beautiful sensation to the 4wd 24-7 community people love her. As for me am watching from Kenya in East Africa and i am also excited about the build just waiting for the finished product. good work Shauno cant wait for the first fire up
at last a fellow kenyan
@@swalehshaan1565 🤣🤣🤣much love from Kenya which part are you from
Mad respect for automotive electricians.
Love the build mate 👍 looking so good and can’t wait for the finished product. Good work Shauno!
Mate, it is a while ago you did this and a hint for rust prevention if no one has told you. I have a couple of old cars and I they are rust free. Peanut oil is the secret. Atomise it and spray it everywhere. Up chassis rails till a fog comes out. Up in door weep holes and watch the dust wick up the outside for weeks. Get it in everywhere you can. Do it every 12 months and you will have no rust issues. I know it sounds proper weird but it works. Be well Mitch.
Thanks for the new recovery kit Shauno! Appreciate it
Was dying for an update! So happy to see this build coming together so well!
Absolutely love sooty the weapon. I really wish i could afford to do HALF the stuff goin on with soot to my 80. Mind blowing.
Haha “done under the shed with a few mates”. My mates would have no idea what to do. Helps having mates in the know!
My name is James Soothill. My nickname at school was sooty. I have a 2006 Holden Caprice which I changed out with a brand new Chevy LS3 just before Christmas so this is my version of fitting Sootys engine!
hurry up and get that beast back on the trail!! looking forward to the new trails!! From ColoradoUSA!
Sooty is looking like an absolute dream 👍 I reckon some nice aftermarket LED halo lights would look mint
looks so good mate! cant wait to see it all done
Great build. You asked for some suggestions and first thing that came to my mind is rock sliders. Some bar work down low between the front and rear wheel flares will help complete the look and also help you protect the doors and fenders. It would be terrible to see all that work and fresh paint be ruined if you slipped off a rock and crush in a door.
So bloody good, can’t wait for the next steps mate, awesome watch.
Loving where this build is going! Keep it up!
Great watch learned heaps. Can’t wait to see it going
What a video mate. Love your work and can’t wait to see what the build will look like 👍
Can’t wait to see it finished!
This thing is getting so dialed in! Love it!
Looking forward to seeing sooty on the tracks again 🙌
jesse, your work is better then the former patrol customs, by far. good to see someone else do it all in a tiny workspace, not a full on workshop in the backyard.
I am so excited about these series, like I saw Terminator 2 trailer as a kid for the first time!
So glad you're doing this Shauno, thank you.
its actually lookin pretty gud so far Shauno, well done mate.
It’s only a small mod but sooty mk2 needs a set of hardkorr spotties and some aftermarket headlights with leds, one thing I noticed about sooty mk1 was the headlights were very dull and he could never decide on a pair of spotties, with how fresh sooty mk2 will look it’s needs a good set of spotties and headlights 🤙🏻
I’m so excited to see this beautiful car hit it’s first hard track! That is going to be one amazing episode! 🥳
Shaun, i can tell your happy, nothing like a plan coming together with a few good friends!! Good job
mate i needed a cold iron jack just watching this. insane amount of effort by all the boys to get this lookin schmick. cant wait to see it in action
Absolutely epic build! Can’t wait to see it in action.
Can’t wait to see this thing out on the trail. 🔥
Sooty Mk2 is so Clean and perfect. can't wait to see it rolling out of the garage and go to wildest tracks. I hope you tune the engine and the reduction gears.
And also, don't forget to fill up the tank, like you did on the Dirt 30, and got everyone worried about it. Keep doing this I really love 4wd, and your trips are awesome
Love this. Exciting to watch.
Loving this series.
I started watching and following this year...man, love these guys and the channel!!
Great job in the shed!!
This is absolutely epic, loving the new colour on sooty keep her sleek in grey and black 😎
Damn Sooty 2.0 is looking bloody awesome! Top job mate! So keen to see her together and out on the tracks!
