I love how whether it's a turbo conversion or changing your windscreen wipers you guys always take it out for a spin at the end of the episode. The 80's looking awesome.
To make it easier lads put the bushes in the freezer before pressing them in
The rig is looking good boys. Love your content. Nice to see sensible young lads , not too driven by silly trends. Keep it coming, cheers from an old man on the road.

Thank you Wobbly! Much appreciated!
Yes!! Finally 🔥 looking awesome boys!
Great vid boys. I notice you didnt replace the bush at the other end of the radius arm. Just a tip, do it right do it once. A half assed job just creates more work. when you pull bits off the rig, always be thorough, clean everything, paint bits that need paint, Replace all bushes etc. That way your pride and joy will last for many years without fail. Do it right do it once! Well done young fellas 👍do it as dan would do it 😉 Properly 1st time every time. Dont forget to get a wheel alignment!

Guys I’m basically 2 weeks behind all your videos fitting out the same stuff lol, one thing I’ll say is PLEASE don’t raptor coat the cruiser cos I can see it happening. Give it a normal repaint.

Increasing the offset increases the track width which can reduce the negative impacts of lifting the suspension, creating more stability. Further, tyres that are slightly outside the guards will protect the body work significantly better. For a slight increase in wheel bearing wear, I think it's a worth it.

Going from a +10 to a -22 offset rim in my gu is one of the best things I ever did so much more stable
Great vlog boys! 80's looking the goods! Well done.

Looking good boys. 👍 If you don't have a spring compression tool, using a quality ratchet strap would also work. Probably quicker than removing the sway bars of your 80.
Use dishwashing liquid instead of grease. It will dry out once it’s in whereas grease wont. Great video blokes !!
You have forgotten the most important mod of all for your 80! The temp sender is high on a 80, and if you crack a hose or loose Coolent the Sender remembers last temp when it was covered by Coolent. I have found this out the Hard Way. Since then I have Fitted a Engine Gaurd with a single Head sender mounted to the Head giving a Accurate Temp reading of Head. I have had it on over 5 years now and has saved my engine a few times. Piece of mind for $100 and 30min to install. ITS A MUST!
The 80 is coming along nicely fellas!! Just raised my 105 yesterday, the ride is so much better with all new and greased bushes. Can’t wait to see what rear bar you go for. Keep up the great work boys 🤙🏻

extend your brake lines. that is what was preventing you from easily fitting the lifted springs. hopefully the new shocks arent long enough to allow the brake lines to strech while wheeling
Good mods, proper set up for tough touring.
awesome vid guys! would like to see one where you explain tyre and rim selection and how they're sized etc in more detail if you are looking for ideas. hopefully run into you in the high country once lockdown is over!

Not sure if you tried it or knew, but you can put the bushings in the freezer for a while, to very slightly shrink the metal, they might have gone in easier.

Another great video!!!!!!! Tip toes to get awning out now🤣🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yeah. I snapped a really good old vice doing that a few years ago. A press from Supacheap or similar is cheaper than a new vice. Great video, boys 😀
Bit of pre heats boys! ...makes life easy when doing bushes.
Keep the bushes in the freezer overnight and lightly heat the arm with a blowtorch prior to pressing in creating an interference fit using thermal expansion
Awesome !
Good stuff boys, I fitted the same rated springs to my 80 series but I went Tarrain Tamer shocks and 315/75 16's...
Great video.
Those shock absorber bellows are great for sucking in wheel well dust & grit & grinding out the piston seal leading to gas & oil leak & failure. Get shocks with a solid upper tubular plastic or metal shroud.
Just Bought A Tee And A Stickers I've Been Watching You Guys For A While Keep Up The Good Vids 👍
Still loving the vids boys! I had castor correction bushes on my 80, lasted all but 6months…. I’ve gone with new radius arms that are made for my lift… mines 4” though, 2” could be different 🤷🏻♂️ Keep it up legends!
Be sure to check if you need to fit extended front sway bar mount brackets. On the LC105, when adding a suspension lift, the front tail-shaft can hit the sway bar at full droop. Not sure if this applies to the 80 series, but suspension in both vehicles is pretty much the same.
The 80 is looking the goods Pat 👍🏾
Nice work boys!!

Been following you since you started. You have come a long way. Don't be like these rest of the Knobs that spend over 200k on there Bling Busters. I've had my 80 for over 25 years now. You remind me when I first got it by putting mods on over the years. Taking some off and trying new ones. Weld some 5mm plate over the Corners of your bar and weld some Rectangular Tubing on Bull Bar and rear Bar for high lift. Scrub Bars are great too . I've hit over 100 Roos in mine over the Years and scrub Bars just beef your Bull Bar Up. I also welded another Bar underneath to help protect steering Arm. Love to have your Young Energy these Days. Keep it up. Enjoy your Channel.
making my old troopy look like a bit of a tractor in comparison haha. Don't forget to slap some rated recovery points on sometime! Cheap and great safety upgrade
If your using a template to locate the offset bushes it's easiest to just pull the arms out one at a time on the ground without jacking the car out. It's safe to have it sitting on its own weight with just one arm in, press the bushes on one arm, bolt the front and rear bolt in. Do the other arm and bolt front and rear in then just jack the control arm up at that middle bush until it lines up
What about thanks to Liam 😅 top bloke he is!
Lokka Next Bud, Keep It up
Woohoo I love your videos
Nice work ! Love how you blokes have a crack !
Definitely a rear swing bar at the rear coming up
Ok just a tip, try heating the bar at the hole with a butane torch to expand the metal, this will allow the bushing to go in with less resistance. Great choice in wheels. Steel is best for 4x4.
@mkwa8870

Wouldn't expanding the steel make it more difficult to press bushes in?
shoud put a snokel on it
G'day mate just a suggestion maybe look into sound deadening for the shed walls to try and reduce the echo, us hard of hearing would greatly appreciate it. Cheers keep up the good stuff.
Hi guys. Love your videos. I'm interested in knowing if you have any issues with vibration in regards to pinion angle on the rear and if so how have you remedy that problem. Keep the videos coming. Cheers
Awesome video guys!! Just wondering how much clearance between radius arms and rod bar have you got after you done the lift and bushes all that? Thanks
It would be worth checking your big end/conrod bearings in the 1hdt`s they are a serviceable item, meant to be done every 100,000 kms I did mine and #5 and #6 were buggered
Watching the front brake line about to snap when trying to lower the diff like 😬😬😬

hahaha it was close!
If you use an oxygen to heat up the bushing hole mount thing a bit they go in easier by no means do I mean cherry red but warm it up it helps just a little advice I've done before
those bushes will break the mounts off your diff. only use rubber bushes, castor plates are the way to do it if you dont want to buy arms. keep up the good work boys
Nice the springs will settle.
Best thing I did on my 80 get the adjustable pan hards handles much better
Great instructional video! Where is 24:29 as I need to test my newly installed lockers during the lockdown but can't go regional yet today. Thanks.

Depending on your area I run 35s daily and have had 33s. Generally 35s mean you will be at a lower rpm when sitting on 100 but take more to get the rolling due to being larger and having a high rolling resistance

Swap them bushes out for a set of new rubber ones and get some drop boxes or new arms. Or at the minimum get some rampt customs reinforcement plates so your diff mounts don’t crack

For metal bushing put them in the freezer for a couple hours before the cold makes the metal "shrink"
You guys Should make a video on respraying the cruiser and the gq
Liam needs to coil swap the patrol. That would be a good episode
Hey Patrick when you're going down hill if you don't already know don't use your brakes just 1st low and let the car do its own thing 😎
When pressing something in use dish soap it can work pretty good they dry up pretty quick too also when did you install the side steps?

Good looking St. Andrews Uber car
Please make a vid on how it rides with the 350 500kg springs in the back when its loaded up!!!
Be careful with castor correctio bushes, the rubber will not move as it should due to it not being constant even on all sides. Get a brace kit and weld tgem on to your diff mounts, common for them to crack and break on the diff.
What brand are the tyres are the tyres any idea we’re I can get a set from Mackay?
Looks mint. Any plans of respray?
Put your Bushes in the Freezer coated in copper grease and heat radius arm
Surely a respray is on the cards now
DAWN vices dont break. Aussie made, in future put the bushes in the freezer the night before.
Noticed you said drivers side was lower after lifting, did you make sure to put the longer front spring into the drivers side? It is to account for drivers weight
you can fit 40s on a stock 80 if you dont mind doing a little choppin ;)
Cable ties on the shock covers are a temporary measure, they will break with UV degradation. Use some jubilee clamps, they will last longer than the protective sleeves.
Yeeeeeeew
hey mate just wondering how do you rate this lift kit from fulcrum suspension? im looking at the same kit for my 80. cheers
