V8 40 UTE RULES DUNGOG- Roothy
TALK ABOUT CLOSE TO SYDNEY 4WDing! Chichester State Forest, the Barringtons, V8 Red truck roaring away and a couple of beaut blokes to travel with - Rocket Rod and Glenno. I used to work around Dungog many years ago and love this end of the country. Considering how close to Sydney it is it's amazing we don't see more people out wheeling there.
The Red truck? With the Chevy motor it’s got three times the power of the old 2H. An automatic gearbox rather than the manual four speed takes plenty of advantage of that and Gearmaster transfer ratios punching a pair of air locked diffs. TJM’s barwork makes it pretty invincible for the times I miss the track and the Premier winch can pull it back into line when all else fails. I love the look of that tray Trackabout Johnny and I came up. Pretty much what you’d expect when you start talking 1950’s F100’s after a few thousand beers.

Never a dull moment with Rockit!
gotta love the v8 40 ute
Yea! Rocket rod! Great wheeling
Absolutely beautiful red truck wish you still had the beast toothy still Milo mark 1 was amazing too we love the video's
Truck? No Kenworth in this video
Lead springs. No power steer. 10 gears changed with a stick. Same power to weight ratio as a - gee, a real truck used to be.
haha! I remember this one.. Oct 2012 and you can just see my car in the background at 30:33. Was great to meet you boys all those years ago. Pretty sure the track after the fallen bridge went to a gate or something that stopped us from going on. Did you guys make it further?
Might have to get back up there soon and see what's changed. Take care John.
Dan.
So Proud of you Rocket‼️👏👏👏
09:59 that’s why they call him rocket 🚀
Rocket's a mad man😂😂
Love your simplicity John!
I’m shock seeing Rocket in something other than a Toyota!🤯
he looks younger in this... maybe it flimed was it a couple of years ago?
@@krashdown102 it’s 7 years ago I think hasn’t had the red truck for a long time and the camera quality gives it away also
rocket doesn't look a day older then 35! holy shit
This video was made with peoples budget in mind but the new show make it seem like people have a spare 20k in there back pocket. Its not the same roothy did the shows so much better!
And the guys proceed to tell you how you don't need the biggest best rig with everything, while they have 3 of their own like that
When Roothy was gone from the team, l stopped buying their magazines. The show just turned into a shit show and wasn’t worth watching anymore.
agreed
They have their budget build series. Granted, it's more commercial now but still good watching. Just different.
Had a old CJ that would bubble up like that in the Overflow jug all the time on hot days did everything to figure out the problem. Turnd out the radiator was not flowing properly and of course it was the last thing I replaced...
Is the goal to upload all the 4wd action dvds that you were in?
If so I’m all for it 👍
Yes, thanks to my old boss at Express Media. I'm hoping to get them all up for posterity. Proud of what I did, proud of my trucks and very proud to show off our country.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY out of all the places you have been
What would you say has to be your favourite?
I just bought a Pajero last year and so far I’ve been to newnes (Lithgow) but wanting to plan trips with friends and family later down the track but it’s so hard to decide with so many places to go
Rocket back when he was still a baby!
Good shot !
Even edited !
Nice !
Gotta love a v8 of any kind. Any chance you remember the name of some of those trails. I was camping at Frying Pan in March, unfortunately we don't have lockers or a winch so we chickened out of some tracks while some were just to ever grown for us as we don't want a heap of scratches all over the car.
when was the original done pls .? and yes rocket looks studley!! love him more now
Awesome guys
What trail are you on in the beginning I’m local to Newcastle but family grew up Dowling street old fruit shop so I still go to the allyn camping every opportunity I get but only did the 1 4wd only track out there never been up frying pan way
Keen to kno where you got in and got out to tackle it
My home Town
My cousin family owns the servo
When I was living in DUNGOG like 18 years wasn’t into wheeling now 42 I love wheeling I need to get back there for a camp ⛺️ fourbee run
Loving your uploads Roothy. Not sure who told you that crock about having to rebalance tyres after running low pressures though. That's only needed if the tyre spins on the rim & whether that happens or not has zero to do with tyre construction.
I have found that heavy duty tyres are much less likely to pop a bead than light duty tyres.
@@rhetth-s8082 As a tyre fitter of almost 30 years, I can assure you there's zero difference between tyres of the same size. Sidewall height will make a difference but sidewall construction doesn't unless it's taken to ridiculous levels 🤙
Good point mate - thanks. Funny I don't remember who said it and I know I never bothered doing it....
Love it.
would love to see some of the old stuff with milo and otis
Love this episode, 3 for the greats. No clowns just doing stunts for views.
nice video i would like to hear the engines tho abit more through the video
Rocket needs a rig that fits his stature. He needs his 79 series
Love the content.
i remember this one you couldn't get up problem creek hill and had to try again the next day. then a month after the dvd was released they bulldozed problem creek hill, dropped trees across it and built a track around the hill. thanks.....not
Inspiring 👍🏼
yeahhhroothywoohoo!!
does rocket rod still have the wildlife sanctuary?
I'd reckon - although we havemt caught up lately - he's very passionate about wildlife rescue.
What I love about roothy, you are not told you can only do these tracks with a $70k canopy from pitzalloy, an overpriced you Bute winch, unnecessarily expensive 12v system from pinkarch and all the other you must buy this to do this. Roothy Is all about geting out there and having fun that any 4wd is capable and just having a good feed lol you all know who destroyed 4wd742 just to make a commission 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I don't like whale watching lol
Like with my old 84 K10, the point is to be able to see out of it and keep the weight down. I take a few odds and ends and a sleeping bag, and sleep in the bed LOL
not far from home
Big rooth
19:29 I rebuilt that bridge about 6 years ago
With my $89 12inch 2 stroke chainsaw from Bunnings
Wasn’t game enough to take my hj61 across it to beefed it up sad to see it cave in
Make another video on Mahindra we love watching those
Am thinking of buying one to modify for Aussie hard core travel. Mahindra are really underrated here.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY ya it would be great if u get one , I also hope mahindra launch new thar over there, over here in India thar has been selling like crazy I have also booked one & it has a waiting period of 10 months 🥲, keep making more videos I love watching them & thanks for replying, support from India
👍👍👍👍👍👍
I grew up in dun a dog
👍🍺🇦🇺❤
Cooper tyres went to shit big time. I run them for 20 plus yrs and ill never buy another one
All I know is they were great for me for most of the last twenty years - one puncture, thousands of K's - but haven;t had them lately.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY . Had an awesome run then the last set of 6 , splits in every sidewall before I even got to do any offroad work and no warranty given
John stop trying to be funny ALL the time.
I can’t believe you all drove off and your camp fire was still smoking …..wtf
All for the camera mate.
Yes I was thinking the same thing, hopefully the camera crew put it out, either way sadly it was showing bad practice to viewers.
Sorry but if you want to drive around and camp in our forests and then post it on RUclips for the everyone to view The Mighty Roothy Adventures ….do the right thing or bloody edit it properly
@@margaretljubicic328 this DVD was released back in like 2013-14.
Yes drive out was for camera but you’re right about showing bad practice. Apologies.
....................................No idea what language that is................................
Sold out to china
So you don’t own anything made in China Mark?? Amazing.
Come on Mark.
Captain negativity Mark McGowan not the first stupid comment you have made on RUclips in recent weeks.
china or india? India is a good ally.
