The Half-Ton Military Land Rover - BANTENG

dosop 4x4 - Military-type vehicles such as Land Rover Half-Ton Military, or known as the Land Rover Lightweight. "It was then modeled Land Rover Lightweight typographical arrangement which incidentally has a very military," said Mugi Subagia, son Subagio Sudjarwo successor - one of the creators of the work of Land Rover Lightweight Indonesia. 

"At that time the father was again idle modeled Land Rover Half-Ton Military in the workshop. Since it is so close to the military officials-at the time -, the father and told to make it a prototype for the Indonesian military vehicles, "he added. 

Even when finished, this vehicle was used by General Suharto-who currently serves as the President of Indonesia and the armed forces anniversary ceremony at Halim air base. Successfully made a prototype, Land Rover Half-Ton Military custom, hereinafter called the Bull, tested its combat capability. Its location in the area Pamengpeuk, Garut and witnessed by Rear Admiral (Ret. Posthumous) Soedomo who was then Commander. 

         
Bull name was clearly printed on either side of the hood. "According to the father, there is no element whatsoever including politics in terms of naming.

Passed a test ground combat, Bull also experienced improvement and go on display at the Center for Defense in Pondok Labu. Attending the ceremony were almost all military officers, such as General M Jusuf Menghankam Commander, Commander Adm. Soedomo, National Police Chief Gen. Anton Soedjarwo. When asked for permission to the principal Armed Forces Land Rover in the UK, it is clearly poyek rejected. The reason is because the manufacturer also makes the Land Rover Lightweight type. 

Bull Reborn

Because the project does not continue, Bull was idle. "After the death of my father, I did have the intention to continue and refine this project," said Mugi. "Be this the Bull." 

Not a lot of difficulty in assembling Land Rover's custom LW. Moreover, many of the guide books about The Half-Ton Military Land Rover to download Internet content. Likewise, the knick-knacks that can be purchased through online services. 

Utilizing the old blueprint Bull, Mugi was assembling new Bull. The interface was adjusted to the development of Land Rover LW. Examples such as head lamp that originally fused with grill, moved to the fender. Then the canvas is also changing. For size, LW Landy was made to follow the long chassis Land Rover Series II 88 'Short Wheel Base 1966. The rest .. let's see the details.

RESTORATON TOYOTA FJ55 1967

In 1967 the factory was officially released Toyota Land Cruiser FJ55 Toyota station wagon as a new variant having a 4x4. But it turns out that pinned FJ55 name not merely known. As with jengkol (archidendron pauciflorum) are much popular in Indonesia, when visited Malaysia better known as Jering while in Myanmar called da nyin thee. 

Back to the matter FJ55, despite the brand and type has been officially released by the manufacturer, was the local name also appears. In some areas of Indonesia, a jeep which is known as the Toyota Command. Whereas in other areas referred to as the Toyota Crocodile. Because of the long snout shape like the mouth of a crocodile. Although the mention of this fact is also sometimes pinned on Toyota DA. 

Originally condition of the body was eaten away rust in some places. Jeep body but fortunately this one has never been crashing or being hit. It can be said the body was straight and the trimmings are complete. 

This capital facilitates the restoration process. The idea is not in getting the color combination of literature books, but from the toy scale 1/64 Tomica alerts. Miniaturized Tomica may be said that such a reference FJ55 restoration. 

At least it took 1.5 years to complete the restoration. The problems are most severe when it should complement the interior knick-knacks that take the time to hunt down and find it. According to its local nickname, Syamsul also nicknamed Land Cruiser FJ55 beloved by the name Mr. Croco crocodile taken from the stands. 

Engine 

Coded 1F engine with congenital vehicle is forced retired due to conditions that no longer fit. In its place is a 2F engine which is a younger engine. In order not to lose the feel of the original the exotic crocodile, valve cover 1F remain employable replace valve cover congenital 2F task.

FORD RANGER RALLY DAKAR EDITION

dosop 4x4 - FORD, which recently announced its participation with d-cab Ranger, similar to those circulating in the country. If interested in lowering Ranger in the competition, please peep this Ranger as inspiration. Mainly for the event smelling speed. This project fronted Ford South Africa, but the principal is fully supported, Ford Global. Neil Woolridge Motorsport is based in Pietermaritzburg (South Africa) who became executor of modifications, of course backed up by the Ford Motor Company in the United States. 

Not an easy job to prepare the Ranger class Dakar event. "We use a special jig system in the production process, in addition, Ford SVT also involved in several sectors of the modification," said Neil Woolridge, who is also the team manager. SVT (Special Vehicle Team) is a specialized division of Ford is developing a high performance components, especially engines. They also make some special edition models of Ford, who so coveted taut car enthusiasts. Preparation of safety must meet the high standards of the FIA. Including the rollcage and the strengthening of the framework, as well as tubular construction is used. Understandably, on the other hand, most of the body panels are replaced special lightweight composites. So the original structure must be strengthened. 

Of the modifications made much deviated from the standard Ranger specs that we enjoy in Indonesia. Machinery for example, no longer uses common rail diesel 2200 cc, V8 petrol engine but plucked from the latest Mustang. Engine capacity of 5000 cc it is one of the best works of Ford and the SVT team. Capable of producing 349 hp (260 kW) at 4500 rpm and torque of 560 Nm at 4,100 rpm. Of far more violent than the diesel engine default. Even if the default engine can be upgraded, its resistance will undoubtedly lead to competition which is 8,500 km. 

Moreover, most of the terrain is taken is desert, which require higher durability and performance. According to the analysis of multiple tester, the Ranger can actually compete with the big teams that advance vehicle use, but only when pitted gravel surface. New problems arise when facing the desert surface. That's where the top teams winning with a more sophisticated vehicle specifications. 

It takes great strength of character engine on a wide rpm range, to conquer the desert surface is soft. Do not be surprised, despite the use of advanced V8 engine and efficient (with twin independent variable cam timing), when faced with the desert, still so wasteful. In normal racing conditions, could spend 28 liters per 100 km, but when faced with desert sand, slipped to 90 liters per 100 km! Do not be surprised the fuel tank capacity of 500 liters! 

4x4 mechanism chosen course is also not standard. Dakar special face, they ordered 6 speed sequential gearbox from Sadev. Sadev is a French company which is specialized gearbox made for the benefit of off-road and rallying. Gearbox was mounted on a permanent 4x4 systems, which continue to power the front and rear axles, each of which has a limited-slip differential, also conforming competition. 

Suspension necessarily have changed, when the original version using rigid axle rear suspension wear, and independent front, the Dakar version uses independent front and rear. Per device and supplied shock absorbers BOS engineering, another French company is also a specialist in off-road and rallying. 

Unique braking system, the Brembo supplied, a global brand for business competition. Front and rear disc brakes competition use, but the back has a water cooler, which is often used in the WRC arena. Brake components so important, knowing, as in the desert, the Ranger can touch speeds of 170 km per hour. When remembering the words of Hiroshi Masuoka, the most daunting in the desert, because the contours of the road can suddenly change. So it took a powerful braking system. 

Engine 

Picked from FORD Mustang sports car. With a capacity of 5000 cc 8-cylinder V format, this engine produces 349 hp and 560 Nm of torque. Including modern V8, because the features twin independent variable cam timing and 32 valves (4 valves per cylinder). The selection, preparation, installation, and tuning machines are fully supported by the Ford SVT (Special Vehicle Team). 

Body

Made of special composite materials, including carbon fiber. While this is similar to the original, this Ranger body much more easily. The problem, though equipped rollcage and a series of additional tubular structure, the weight is not much different from the standard, which is 1,975 kg. 

Cabin 

Cockpit view similar vehicles off-road competition in general. Racing seats, functional buttons that are easy to reach, as well as indicators of the engine and a GPS. Which is not visible is the air conditioning system is used. Understandably, the Dakar rally took place in the middle of the desert sun.
