How Shauno got the Farm Truck ready for CAPE YORK! The Basic mods you need & what gear to take
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Shauno runs through everything he did to get the old farm truck 47 series Land Cruiser ready for an epic trip up to Cape York!
Basic must have mods like the 12v system from the original Dirty 30, a quality UHF from GME, durable Goodyear tyres and refreshed suspension from Fulcrum Suspensions.
Have a watch and tell us - how far off a trip up the cape are you?!

it's great how Shauno has a good stable of rigs to mix it up. Just need to see a bit more the others. I get how it makes sense to just keep beating on Sooty hard like it owes ya money and keep the other ones in good nic tho

Love that old truck! So cool! The new rigs are great but they are everywhere. I’ll take old school any day of the week! ❤️🐞
Learnt to drive in rig like this, 1F, 1H and 2H's, no brakes, no lights, PTO winch, hours spent in low range carting timber or sand on some remote cattle stations in qld. My dad still drives a HJ75 with nearly 1M km on the clock. But the old GQ TD42 with coils all round still will drive places I have to winch the HJ Only mod i would recommend to this farm truck rig is a new aftermarket internally regulated 90A alternator. The stock unit was only 40A and the old 2stage external regulator was prone to failure. Have fun enjoy the road trip.

Its great to see another 47 back on the road getting used for what it was made for.
This has given me a lot in confidence in my upcoming trip. The Simpson desert and beyond in my 1985 BJ70 SWB Landcrusier
Good ep but damn I was so hoping for Kimberley part 2 to kick back and watch this arvo
Your "old farm truck" is still one of the best 4wd ever made and will go anywhere
Love seeing old truck getting it done
Mate one of the best videos I have seen. We all have seen the 79s and the 80s but doing the Cape in the ultimate 40 Series is something different and a breath of fresh air.. Can't wait for the rest mate ..
"Goes pretty good, can do 80-90kph." well now if that's not the most toyota thing I've ever heard.

Currently up the cape as well! We’ve been planning this for 2 years! 8 adults, 12 kids all from Tassie and up the cape for 3 weeks! Currently in Coen and start the OTT on Sunday or Monday. This is living!!!
I plan to take my new to me 2013 F250 gasser to Land Between The Lakes, TN in the US of A this year. Nothing crazy but there is an offroad park that allows camping in some pretty secluded areas for the placement. I have an ATV that rolled on top of me and luckily I wasn't hurt too bad, but I was with a few buddys that helped me down from the "mountain" we were scaling. Shortly after we got to a safer spot, the ATV lost all power under load. I was towed to the staging area but soon learned that a few people that were not wearing helmets and that were riding double on ATVs (against the rules of the park) were seriously injured on the same track I tipped it on and had medics on the way to evacuate them. My saviors ended up going back and helping out as well. I went home to lick some wounds and take care of the kiddo that was in one of the other vehicles that helped me out. SAFETY, should be your first concern. THEN all of the other crap.
that high lift jack mount point is so good. Love and respect from the USA
After seeing the dirty 30... ON THE BACK OF A TRUCK...after someone on the 60 series Facebook page snapped a pic of it...I can’t say I can believe a word of “2500kms to just get here”, shauno.
Nice old yota! She’s a beauty! And one truck I can never find and always wanted. Good old and faithful!
Really good to see a realistic cool old truck that most people can relate to doing a cool trip. Great to see you going back to basics lads👍
Heading to the Cape for 4 weeks in August. Taken the 200, a small Van, the Misso and our little 8month old fella along for I hope is one of plenty more trips ahead. CAN’T WAIT.
Brings back memories.. my work ute in Cape York was a 76 model 18R 4sp Hilux back in the early 80's .. that road was a lot more 'Challenging' in those days. Loved the 40 series and thought a 60 was a limo. Most 4bs are Princess models these days. Love your work guys, always brings a knowing smile👍
Cant wait for this episode Gunna be a great one Many more exciting episodes too look forward too Should give us an early one as a surprise one week Take care fellas
SO EXCITED FOR THUS TRIP! ENJOYYYY
Thank goodness! Ive got a 1979 45 and i love this. Well done
I absolutely love this. I can’t wait. Thank you for this. Love you guys
Nice farm truck, hope to see more video’s of it.👍👍👍
Next Graham has to try find himself an old Nissan G60 to do a trip in it with Shauno as his passenger.

Farm truck! I think that names already taken 🤔, just hope he doesn't start calling himself Azn, he looks a bit like him 😆 but seriously it's great seeing the older trucks 🤩
Half way to cape york in the old Rangie now, leaving from Cairns in 2 days!
The rig look great mate, can't wait to see the farm truck more often. Cheers
So good shauno, absolutely loved every second of this video. Getting my all original 47 2h soon and its going to be left standard like yours. Cant wait to see the rest of the 47videos coming. My second favourite video is when you took her for the maiden bush trip!
Heading to the Cape,,,,, is a must.... we are going to go anywhere we can as soon as we get the beast back from getting a new motor....
The 2H is probably my favourite motor and I'm a Patrol fan! Just have a 22mm socket and a spare over-length oil pressure valve piston on hand just in case the original catches and over pressurises your oil circuit.
Loving the 40 series. Looking forward to watching your Cape York episodes. 👍 My big trip this year will be to the Victorian High Country in November - my 1st time (finger's crossed the borders between NSW & VIC will be open).
sounds like an awesome trip.
About time you guys started doing big trips again, not just down the shops and back tracks. Can't wait to watch it, also I'm just staying local in Sydney until Christmas then hopefully to Fraser 🤘
I love it how u left it stock and not over powering or over modifying
Been waiting to see a ep like this cause it brings back the old school Eps from the good old days where Jocko took the “old Nissan hilux ”🤣🤣🤣🤣 from a random call from the boys.. EPIC !!!
This is going to be a Amazing episode hope it won't be a short one can't wait
Awesome video. Live these older vehicles.
Cape York and Fraser Island this year with some great mates and the wife and two kids! Keen as a bean!
Leaving for the cape next week. Almost a year ago a mate said to me “we’re going to the cape, you’re coming with us” Can’t wait.
Did Cape York in a 1980 G60 Patrol about the same year, standard everything 7.50 x 16 tyres gas fridge no recovery gear except bits of chain etc drove across the Jardine both ways, Gunshot Creek no problems, gas stove, tent, beer, gun and a Sheila . You're doing it a bit soft!! haha, great video!!
Shauno enjoyed every minute of that video. In years gone by I owned 2 FJ40's short wheel base. Your video bought back some of those memories. Unfortunately these days my eye sight is no good to have a driver's licence. so no more 4WD for me. But it's nice to see someone else that still enjoys the good old Toyotas.
2H? 2 Hot! haha. I'm so glad to see this thing again... was beginning to wonder about it.
We're hitting the Cape at the end of September, can't wait!
Awesome Ute 🤙🏻. Looking forward to the episode 🤙🏻🤙🏻
Previously, I never thought I could have a crush on a vehicle, but I do. This farm truck is epic!!!
At the cape now. Hoping the old 80 can take me home 😂
Have a good trip the old way like it was when l was young, cheers boys.
Taking my 83 HJ60 series LandCruiser to the tip! First Cape York trip going with my two youngest son's 4 & 14! Hope we make it! Angie
Now this IS interesting... well done Shaun... great truck and trip..
I could never have one but that is what I call a real truck, good job
We left Cairns the day you went through, we were heading back to Rockhampton just done the cape and the bottom half of the OTT in our budget build Delica. Would do it again too.

Doing the cape in August this year with my wife towing a 22.5 caravan with my HSV sportscat Colorado can’t wait.
Something about going old school, much deeper connection to machine and the road, best type of overland experience in my book 👍 Next trip for me? Ruby Falls, Alberta, Canada.
I’ll be heading up to cape for the first time mid July and I am keen as a bean!
Awesome to see Shaun in a stock standard 4wd, on his 10th trip to the Cape xx
My girlfriend and I are going to Lightning Ridge, Bourke, White Cliffs, Broken Hill, Silverton, SA Border Gate Roadhouse and a fair few places off the beaten track including the areas National Parks on the 25th! Doing about 4000kms in 10 days, to say that we are excited is an understatement! 😁😁😁
I went to the North Maine Woods last weekend. I'll be up there again this year. If my passport comes back in time I will head up to the Irving forest in Canada.
Can’t wait to see this trip!
That truck works an absolute treat
So I am about to take the family on a Darling River Run, as our first long distance touring trip.. 6 of us with the camper in tow! It will be illuminating as I am planning for the cape in 12 months time.
Love it! Don’t forget the case of Iron Jack beer!
As a HJ 47 owner it's nice to see it getting used as intended. Mines bog stock too. Only thing it's got is bull bar tray I fabricated in my work shop and a few good bash plate's as the transfer case hangs low on them old girls. I plan on some locker's for it next and the worn out 2H is getting replaced with a new 12HT I've just rebuilt. Then just a good major service and it will live another 600,000+km of hard work again.
Wow the Kimberley's landscape really has changed a lot since part one. ^^
We’re booked in for Orchid Beach for a week for September school holidays. Most important mod was roof racks for inflatable tubes and boogie boards for the kids apart from a DCDC charger for the fridge
I think people forget how far you can take a stock 4x4 with just a good set of tyres!!!! Friend and I were having this same discussion just the other week, the aftermarket accessibility and availability has almost made people forget how much a relatively standard vehicle can do!!!!! Those old cruisers are tough as nails and basic as hell so would be a bloody fun adventure!! Comfort......well some things have to be sacrificed when on a budget
Can't wait to see the trip
Unfortunately, my rig just had a catastrophic break... I have to part it out, and go the next few months without a 4wd. I'll have to plan for next year. I'll just have to keep watching your adventures. Keep up the great work! Cheers.
Nice one Shauno!
Doing the Cape this September for 4 weeks ... 2nd time for us ... so looking forward to it😜
Something to be said it "simple", just makes things more memorable. Look forward to the trip vids. I'd lacquer that hood tho', keep the patena.
I thought it was Kimberley part 2 week.. I did enjoy this video off the old 40. A classy vehicle for a couple of hillbillys.
Love the old 4x4s, building up a Suzuki sierra at the moment, will be ready for summer with a high country trip in January 2022. You've mentioned that you might get another Suzuki Sierra build on the show at some point. Would be great to see that!

Cape coming at you, 1st of July for a month! 👌 might see you legends up there.
Just awesome mate love it !!!!!
Yep, a (genuine!) hi-lift jack was my very first piece of recovery equipment... Great for lifting my old 2A Landie out of ruts... lift up and push off the jack out of the rut... and yes - this was my very first hand winch. Even when I got a (again, genuine) Tirfor winch the jack was the first go-to.
I’m definitely going to Landcruiser mountain park this year for sure
That’s a great looking truck,very original…
I bought a 1986 Unimog to do exactly the same, keep it simple and as basic as possible. Only mods it will get: a portable 12v battery (with redarc bcdc on the box), manual crane to get the 120kg spare wheel on/off the tray and maybe a bull bar with winch. The same day I got number plates on it, the first trip began! Canberra to Darwin, not knowing how big the tank is, no fuel gauge. Speedo and odometer gave up within the 1st hour, gearbox died 500km before getting home. LOVED EVERY SECOND OF THIS 7 DAY TRIP! This dry season the plan is to do shorter trips around the NT and sort out the mechanical/electrical/pneumatic gremlins to make sure she’s ready for the Munja Track next season.
You guys definitely need more than a million subs.
👍👍👍 Good old Beauty! We travel across Sweden this Summer. Now traveling is possible in Europe. The F*** Covid stopped almost all options for Trips out of Germany. It will be the first long voyage for our new Hilux. Nothing spezial but nice Tracks in the Woods with a amazing Nature. Brgds!
Going to Moab, UT! I've got an 87 suzuki samurai thats been diesel swapped, lifted, locked, and a bunch of other goodies in it! Just finishing off the build over the next couple weeks!
Got a little fishing trip to Nadgee coming up when it warms up down here, beach launch and plenty of lures will be flicked. Hopefully Tom will dirt the new wagon.
I'm one of the locals up from far north cape York, bamaga. seen the old hj cruiser up here, she's a beauty...
So keen to see this thing do Cape! Gotta love a good old farm truck. I'm gonna do fraiser island this year (so long as time permits) 🤣
Beautiful!!! Planning to do central Botswana in my HJ47 ute next year. Bare basic setup. Battling some sand, lions, elephants and seriously desolate and wild Kalahari desert.
Good stuff Shawn
Well done Shaun ! Good to see the Toyota icon going on track n be careful as you decide to sell it let me know I keen to grap it cheers !
Great rig!!
Hot tip with your door getting jammed, try pushing then pulling on the door as you have the handle pulled, one of my rear doors does that and that trick seems to work
I had a 40 series shorty with canvas roof. Not that pleasant driving in the cold or wet but the most fun vehicle I've had!
