The new LandCruiser has problems... ultimate 80 series Toyota build! 

That mechanic is a real character, can we have him as a regular? 😂

Love watching Nick with his witty comments. Feature him in more episodes. He is a character.

Love how Demi has a go at anything! Great way to learn about fixing things too!

This is becoming a Sunday morning routine pancakes bacon and coffee and a Tyler video. Love it

I’ve been watching your videos for a long time, I don’t even own an 80 series but I think this was my fav episode yet. I enjoy doing mechanical work these days & have learned a lot. I like Toyotas and it never gets old listening to Nissan owners knocking Toyotas. One time around 15yrs ago my Prado had a loose starter motor plug & wouldnt re-start while on the Glass House Mtns tracks that was beyond my capability at the time to diagnose and a mechanic in a GQ Patrol arrived to help, and boy wasn’t he laying into & whinging about Toyotas while he was fixing my car. He got a piece of wood, hopped under the car and pushed the plug back in with it. I was going to give him $50 for his help but by the end of it I decided not to give it to him haha. I told him if I had any cash in my wallet I would’ve given him $50 for his trouble.

Nic is a HOOT -- great sense of humour and he mixes well with you guys. Keep him on where possible -- I really enjoy the casual style you guys have yet you also show a professional level of responsibility when it comes to the serious and safety critical side of the game -- most entertaining and fun to watch ! !

Great work getting things done yourselves. And you're extremely lucky to have access to knowledgeable people when stuck. Nick is such a legend. Though if you plan to continue to do DIY work on the 80, I'd recommend investing on an 80 Series LandCruiser workshop manual, like the Haynes Land Cruiser 1980 - 1998 Repair Manual, for when you cannot access your experts. I find mine invaluable.

Good video Tyler & Demi. getting amongst it is where it's at. Nick and Demi work well together and it a good dynamic.

It's marvelous to have sponsors to provide great quality parts, and a network of knowledgeable people eager to lend a hand when needed. To have these types of backing and network is due to your great work being recogised/noticed. Well done.

I've done all of this on my 1hz 80 series while covid was happening and you are lucky due to having 2 vehicles and the finances of 2 incomes I did it all with just my one wage and saving up for months to do this... the benefit of having 2 vehicles is when you need parts and can get to the spare parts shop ...... I had to organise couriers all the time and the expense grrrrr..... and you had a friend who was a mechanic come over to help.... but... I've done it and I did it all myself... 1 thing I did notice, your professional mechanic mate Nick didn't put the Brake Disc Dust Cover Backing Plates back on...you will find several other issues as you go along.. I prefer the 1hz to the petrol version you have... I am loving how Demi is doing most of it herself while you just hold the camera.. typical nisson owner.. lol....... you will need a workshop manual which you can get online and also RU-vid videos are a great help.. I have made some for my 80 series. I Love allfourx4, I have been dealing with them for many years now and I'm in Melbourne and I usually have the stuff the next day or the day after... Great service and prompt delivery..

Good to see you both learning how to and taking us all along fir the ride. Awesome yiu got your lil mechanic mate talking you through it as you go. Very handy having a knowledgeable person to help you.

Demi on the hammer was gold and I nearly broke My laptop when she quoted her mechanic prices as I nearly spat My beer, this was a cool episode, love your work.,

I like your videos Tyler but when you get the misses involved it becomes a video that I can't help but love. Demi is hilarious and then going and adding old mate Nick in as well couldn't stop laughing. Great video and thanks all 4x4 spares for the sponsored video lol.

Excellenté ❗️😃👌🏼 That you did get onto the CV’s ✔️ Yâ Mate Nick’s Definitely Well Versed, & on the comeback’s too 🤣🙌🏽 43:33

When you change the steering box make sure you upgrade to the 105 series sector shaft its bigger and you will also have to change the pitman arm. No dramas then.

I have only one word for Demi. " LEGEND "

When you do wheel bearings etc buy ya self a box of sergical gloves makes life easier 👍

Nice hints how to grease the bearings... had mine out today on the troopy to readjust them... gave them a nice cleanup and fresh grease😊👍🏼thx, looking forward for the next part

You’re had a few cars in the past 5 years I’ve lost count lol😂 Man of many registrations

Good work Demi, it's quite a job doing your doing !. It's great to have a bit of help from Nick.... when I did mine I packed the cv joint with moly grease but didn't fill the swivel hub with grease, so I gotta figure out how to fill the swivel hub with grease without pulling it all apart again...

You could be roothys nephew working on that toyota. Thats a compliment too roothys the man

Brilliant show y’all!! Very entertaining…luv your work.

Well you don't this situation often! Tyler your Mrs is a real trooper, just got into what needed to be done! This will be a fantastic project jokes aside both of you will remember and laugh about!

Great work Demi!

That was so good guys. Great video Tyler

Killer title & killer vid 🎉🎉

I can’t wait to to see the finished Landcruise

Loving the new car and its sweet retro stripes, great watching you both working things out how they come apart (with a bit of help😂). You may have a new T-shirt at 15:15 Mechanic things Cruiser in the background mum covered in grease😊.

Love the banter, great video.

Really funny episode! Wifey is doing great 👍

Demi's finally learnt to keep Tyler away from the Tools!!!

The miso has done more mechanic work in one vid than you have done in your entire RU-vid life lol well done mate we can all learn something from you

Good on young lady for showing the fellas up...👍🏻

Loving the vids Tyler 👌 😍

Bush mechanic-ery at its best...Great video.

Yes please on the Zook build!

Love the EP, but hate to say it - She's put you to shame. Great to see Nick again - character. Keep it up. Love the builds

Demi is a comedic gem!

Good work team.

I love how Demi is having a go a fixing things. I know you don't cook hahaha classic

Next time you're in there servicing the bearings, check out the replacement Trail-Gear Spindle Nut upgrade, much better than the standard setup.

Great vid,I've just bought a 80 as well and swivels need doing,left side is worse than the right like yours 👍

Great vid mate full of laughs your content just gets better, nick is awesome definitely knows his shit

Great episode!!! 👍🏽

Nick's humour is just priceless 😂😂😂

Demi you are a legend.

Great vid guys, loved it.. I reckon it won't be long before Demi is the preeminent expert in Team Thompson..

Love how Demi is getting in having a go

Not sure when this channel turned into a comedy channel but I like it. 😂😂😂

From an ex mechanic it's awesome to see Demi getting in amongst it and working on her car. She'll learn so much, appreciate it so much more, and will be able to help you when you get yourself in the 💩 Cause we know you only stand behind the camera and don't get your hands dirty . . . Lol (Jokes) 👍 🤣 Great work Demi !!! Keep it up 👍👏

Great content as usual. Nick is an awesome addition with his wit and knowledge. Good to see Demi having a go but starting to become not family friendly 😢

Wow Demi knows more than you in how to fix a Landscruiser lol. Great vid again

Great job, but what about the brake backing plate?

Man your misses is the absolute bloody best. If you ever going to leave her plz pass her my details. Hahahah also need to book her mechanical skills in.

Going to enjoy watching the daily driver we transformed into an off road beast..

Great video mate

I recommend terrain taimer parts. Their complete kits are great!

I love nick...hes savage 🤘🏻 i like it

Great vid guys

thank you :)

Loving it. Helping me out knowing fixes for my landy. Bloody Landcruisers. Always breaking. Like Bloody Fords. Fixing or repairing daily.

good vid guys

Great vid. Must say Demi has a good grip 😅

Good on ya for having a go that’s what YouTubing is all about

Well I enjoy watching girls working with the boys , becoming independent and knowledgeable

great video you need to do a trip with nick, demi and timmy there would be so much banter haha

VGG would be proud of the rebuilt front end

Gee ive missed something think ive missed some episodes mabe a lot u bought an 80series landcuiser the holy grail , WTF cool 😎

Gee Tyler your Toyota mechanic is better looking than mine great episode guys 😁 cheers legends

I 'upgraded' to the GU box on my 105 hoping for lighter steering in the bush and unfortunately I have had nothing but troubles. Doesn't leak though and yes, the sector shaft is a bit thicker, so credit there I guess. Also best thing I ever did was get a ball joint and tie rod end separating tool...

Nice one 🤙

Dont know why im excited to see new videos coming from you tyler 😂 maybe im toyota junkie 😂😂

Demi did a great job!

Another awesome episode. Definitely not a family episode with swearing and dirty talk 😂

PUT CONDITIONER IN ✔️✔️ ALWAYS WORKS😁

Top stuff Demi having ago Get Nic on full time too he's a weapon 😅

Great vid...have to get some Merch... 🙂

😆😆ONE OF BEST EPISODE YET!! The Mrs witty sarcastic comments, swearing, and the 'hit me up' for tools, mechanical work, bearings greased etc etc.. then TTs cracks at the Mrs (month later) and Nick's comments thrown in on top was best laugh ever...BTW, mate saw you the other day, he said all could notice was one shiny mirror..one old mirror... 😆

A great informative and hilarious episode 👍 i think if you do all your own mechanical work yourself helps you diagnose and fix problems when stuck, out in the bush. Why didn't we demi greasing the drivers spindle? Oh that's right, family show😂😂😂👍👍

On ya Demi, good to see you having a crack . Nothing better than having that achievement that u done it ur self. A good tip when working on 4x4 , hair ties 😅Great work Tyler on the camera . Great job to u both

Great show and keeping it real for the Toyota crew. 😂 Did you say Zook build! 😎

Block of wood on spindle, hit that

"please do not take this as an instruction video, this is just us trying to get it out" 😂😂😂

I once used a set of heavy duty avm hubs to save myself some cash and i regretted it big time as they let water in like you wouldn't believe. ended up having to rebuild both sides with in a couple years including new cvs. wasn't happy to say the least. I'll never use anything but aisin now. hopefully this won't be the case for you.

Don't bag the zooks bro. They're heaps of fun. 😁

i know i have said this before your mechanic needs his own show hahah

Demi when my 79 needs it's swivel hubs and bearings done i will give you a call

Look like it’s fun to do the job. I wish I can do mine by my self like you guys . Do to he Health just can’t do it 😂

So is there going to be a mechanic, only fans page lol Great work guys (Demi) like this type of build videos where you are more hands on

Should show checking CV for heat and cracks

and thats how to shag a new bearing! by getting it crooked and hammering on the bearing! use a copper hammer or the old bearing to hit on

Haha loved it , hourly rate , depends if ya dressed, quick witted !!

You guys weren’t keen to put the backing plates back on, the swivel hub?

Hit up Kingchrome, TJ and Mac and Sam all did well from them.

🔥😁

Ive had both trucks and nissans fall to bits body and interior wise more prone to rust as well.

I think I seen the problem with Demy using the 🔨, left handed 😜. Nah good on her getting stuck in 👍

So with the cv u don’t have too use a hole lot of grease just little bit on too and bottom and side tell me why u need a lot of grease

Nick must be nearly full time on the payroll!

Toyota fanboi and nissan fanboi has been fighting for ages but their fight from different houses...and..tyler take it to another level toyota and nissan fanboi fighting lived in the same house 😂
