Very good description. Lots of work but I am sure it's worth every bit. Great build. Eager to see the finished product.

Hey Ronny, have you thought of getting a ladder mounted to the side of the vehicle? You wouldn’t have to put the kitchen away and shut the door to get to the roof and wouldn’t have to swing the 2nd tyre out when you eventually put that on. just a thought, would always be there and you wouldn’t have to pack anything away to use it and you can also get into the tent without sliding everything back inside.

You can do that in a minivan in the US. All paved roads including on mountain tops... Could even use a compact car and a tent. My friend cross the country on a motor bike with a tent...great trip that was.

In Dec 2020 I was going through a town called Seymour in NSW during the floods. As the water level rising my lancer had its engine nearly die lol. There was a cargo van who didnt risk it before me. You wont run into that problem on a modded land cruiser. Yep. I def need a modded 4x4.

On my G class the spare wheel holder is secured from swinging by the factory tire mount however the spare is still supported by the rear bar. So I open the door and the spare swings out with it. You should consider modifying yours to do this.

Hi Ronny, It seems that your break in Bali has done you a power of good. I also have the Thorburns rear bar on my 78 Troopy and love it - it is rock-solid! I would very interested to see how you modify the rear ladder to make it compatible with the passenger side rear wheel carrier. Keep up the great content!

Thanks Noel, We think the modification of the ladder will quite neat and easy with the help of a pro fabricator like OTF. The cut lines are worked out already so it’s just a matter of getting it done and powder coated

Every time I think of a troopy as an ultimate tourer I remind myself a single cab Canter has a smaller wheelbase and tighter turning circle with more room for living out of the back and can take 37’s without any engineering. But the downside is overall project would be twice as big. At least with a troopy you’ve got something useful while the project evolves.
