    Top stuff Tim. Very tastefully done. Looking forward to your new content. Just wanted to know if you dont mind sharing. Have you upgraded your suspension on Jabari. Vehicle looks tops bud. I also have a 4x4 Fortuner. Busy with a few upgrades too.

  • @LostinAfrica

    11 ай бұрын

    Thank you! And of course! At this stage Jabari was running Tough Dog front and rear shocks with 250kg front springs and 500kg rear springs, but they weren’t coping with the extreme mods i have done. So I have subsequently changed to terrain tamer shocks in front, with Camil rear coil overs, and still the same tough dog springs. I am very happy now but Jabari is a real fatty so this is an extreme set up!

    @@LostinAfrica Thanks for your response. Sounds like a very heavy duty setup on Jabari. I guess it's only when the suspension is really put to the test that one would know what works and what really doesn't. Expensive game too so it helps with inputs from you and Jabari:). The Hamer bumper looks awesome on that Fortuner, nice slim bumper, tough but not bulky as well. The colour does justice too. I'm sure you just love to overland with that beast of a Jabari. I see you got some Takla seats as well. I got mine recently in Kyalami. Are they serving u well.

    Yeah exactly. I would strongly advice figuring out exactly how far you plan to take your build before deciding on suspension! I know many people that started with a pretty normal build, got great suspension, and then added bumpers and swing arms and extra fuel, and then suddenly had to change their suspension again... Just like me! Takla are the best man, these have had seriously hard use for almost 3 years now and are still perfect! And pop me a mail if you want a hammer, can put you in touch with the distributor, same guy that brings in the ikampers. @@krisrock8

    Why does it upset you so much? So long as it doesn’t cover the name on the sign I think it’s pretty cool and has a sense of community. It’s like people building little piles of rocks. Personally I won’t do it, but i do not understand why it has become so contentious!

    You seem to be looking forward to each night camp so you can down some beverages. At around 17:00 you categorically state that you’re going to get drunk. IMHO there should be less of referencing and suggestive alcohol consumption in 4wd vids. The constant ‘need’ for a drink is not healthy and although many countries have banned media promotion of alcohol, here you are doing it for the ‘legal’ drug companies. I’m not a wowser; just concerned for the young people who watch. Cheers 👍🏻🙏👍🏻

    Thanks for the opinion Graham, but if you watched the rest of my videos you would see this is never normally the case. This was a boys trip, with beers around the fire at night. And when I said we're going to get drunk it is right after we wrapped the big campaign shoot, and with no need to be anywhere else. It's honest, my channel always is, and I think that is more important. And as I said, this really is an exception.
