This was actually an awesome vid. It’s such unseen stuff, where we normally only see the tracks. It’s great to see what you guys have to do prior to going and stuff. Even little things like being in the supermarket and stuff. Great job guys I love you’s
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it! there is soooo much more that goes on behind the scene just to get ready for such a big trip like this one
Only thing we didn’t prep for was how handsome AZ is 😮💨😂😂
Awwww shucks x
I live in Cairns guys, & she was a wet week last week.
Nice, & sunny now but do expect a muddy track up there.
Always love the 24/7 guys 👍
Have fun
awesome Az , travel safe and we all want to see the Cape trip, don't hurt the 79 to much
AZ will be one of the most missed blokes when mits brand deal runs out with 4wd247.
It’s awesome seeing a bit of behind the scenes for these iconic 4wd247 hold. Like we don’t exactly see Shauno holding a camera in Coles for us 😂.
Does the 4wd247 crew provide you guys with a list of items that you must bring in a trip or do you just kind of wing it?
Keep up the awesome work guys!
Thanks mate! I thought this would be a good video to make as there's so much that goes into a trip like this last one being two trips back to back (usually they're only around 2 weeks)
We do get a call sheet with a plan with times and dates of where we need to meet and then start the filming, but these plans can change very quickly depending on breakages and delays and unforeseen circumstances, but we generally just go with the flow and see what happens.
With these trips we all need to be self sufficient with spares, tools recovery kits and things like that and we organise our own food for most of it and Shauno does a couple of cook ups for everyone and most of the time we all end up sharing everything and just having a good old time on the tracks and around the fire!
Great Stuff , looking forward to your Adventures
Us too! Thanks mate
Excellent video, was really good to see
Thanks mate! we put some effort into getting it ready for this trip
Great video mate, interested to hear your feed back on the new brakes, looking forward to the seeing the trip 🤙
Do you guys think you'd ever do a coil conversion on the big79?
That thing would be unstoppable with the springs out of the way
what’s an awesome video. So good.
Thanks mate!
Size tyres did you boys end up throwing on the 17s, cheers fellas 👍🏼
Next update, a flash New Bull bar 💯
I enjoyed a trip a up to the tip & back meeting a VW bug club who prided themselves in doing the trip in near stock beetles.
What spare parts and consumables (oil etc) do you take for 7 weeks of hard wheeling? What tools? What's interesting at the bottom of your toolkit?
AZ how much beer do you guy’s actually carry on these trips? Is this why you always nudge your GVMs? 🤘
We usually don't take enough haha!!
Does that 79 have a tune on it ..... I love the black soot it produces when tackling a hard challenge thrown at it
Hey Dan, Yes it does mate! Tommy at Performance Tourers 4x4 in Mayfield did it for us
Massive process! What's the clean up process after the trips? I'm guessing up on the hoist then a lot of CT18, degreaser and high pressure hose?
Its an ongoing process after being away for so long mate. I washed the 79 4 times before getting back to the workshop and it still has red dirt coming from all sort of places
Would love to know supplier of the maxtrax mount
What do you eat for 3 weeks on the rd and camp cooking? Apart from the obligatory burgers snags and steaks!?
Because we are always moving, we eat quick for lunch or snacking a lot on small stuff like muesli bars, fruit, nuts for lunch its usually tinned tuna or chicken on crackers even noodles. For breaky, most would eat cereal or muesli and yogurt and dinner most of the time we each do some sort of cook up which isn't usually filmed but the might use as b-roll
What's the advantage of having slotted and drilled rotors?
Which I'd the better car offroad? Your Ranger or the 79?
For touring I'd have to say the 79 as its setup for that, but for hardcore wheeling, my ranger would have to be the winner there
@@mitsalloy excellent. Thank you
Great vid, What’s the fuel consumption like per 100 on the 79?
Thanks mate, for the Cape trip i reckon it was around the 20LPH and in the desert i was averaging around 25LPH
Whats the model number of the side Stedi lights that were installed?
Ya only changing wheels and tires why is ya rig so far up in the damn air?
It seemed like a good idea at the time.... the back didn't like it much though
How much was the brake upgrade ?
Hey Mate, this was a sponsored brake kit, I'm not sure if that kit is officially out or not so I couldn't tell you the pricing unfortunately mate
