Feldon Rigs Vol.2 - Toyota Land Cruiser 80
Toyota Land Cruisers have always been a perfect choice for Overland Travel, mainly due to their robust build and reliability.
This beautiful Land Cruiser 80 Series belongs to Joel Gowthorpe; an adventurer & photographer from New Zealand.
This vehicle is outfitted with all the goodies needed, in order to face any obstacle that Joel's adventures might throw at him!
The 80 is equipped with Feldon Shelter's Hawks Nest V2 on Front Runner Load Bars, in the brand new Green colour; it also has the 3 bar spine system on top, which allows Joel to carry his adventure equipment on top of his tent.
The Cruiser rides on a 4" Dobinsons Lift, with remote reservoir shock absorbers and 37 inch tyres and at the same time, it has front and rear lockers; making it as capable as it gets.
Before getting into our specs list, here is our favourite question to its owner: Why you Overland?
Joel Gowthorpe: "Firstly, I'm not a big walker. But being on a self-sufficient journey, where the only certainties are the gear you bring and the hours of R&D you put into your vehicle, is equal parts thrilling and calming. Whether it’s days or weeks, relying solely on your equipment and knowledge is an experience that never gets old."
