- If you're seeking the ultimate 4WD adventure in Australia, there's no place wilder than the Oombulgurri Track. 💪
Missed PART ONE of our epic Kimberley trip? check it out here 👉 • STUCK IN CROC INFESTED...
We're here on the tail-end of a late wet-season, and the struggle is real as we attempt to re-open this mighty low-range track for the season...
Grab a FREE 🔥 beanie with the new range of Winter jackets from Snatch! Keep warm on your next trip & grab your Winter gear here 👉 bit.ly/SnatchB...
Six days ago we set out from the remote WA town of Wyndham with the locals barely rating our chances of pushing through 400 km+ of intense low-range tracks ahead of us. 😳
Despite nearly a week of hard slog through some of the most remote country in Australia, we've made it less than 90 kms into the track… with fast flowing rivers, 4WD swallowing mud & dense bush fighting us all the way.
But now, things have taken a turn for the worse…

Hey fellas. As a Aboriginal Australian and big 4wd, bush, camping fan, gotta say it says alot that someone like Ronnie really gets along with you fellas. Relationships with communities is precious and meaningful. Men passing through are judged by intent and character, not by their status, titles, looks or car they drive. Says alot boys, much respect to you all love what you do.
The best episodes is when Graham and shauno is together ❤
Couldn't agree more!
100% agree they are a great duo
agree
N jocko
Nah Graham is a wanker. Wish Roothy was still in it with Shauno
Do you guys think you will come to NZ for a 4wd?
Be sooo neat aye
I was about to ask the same thing, NZ has amazing scenery camping and 4x4ing. Graham would also have a chance to do some bow hunting if he remembers how to do it.😅
These trips make the 42nd look like a 10min episode
They so should aye, I would be so keen for that
they'd never handle your crazy ass hills haha
I'm addicted to your show. Great Aussie real drama!
I've got no idea about 4WD driving but learning a few things especially the U bolts! Well done for your persistence and perseverance fellas!!!
Looking forward to the next episode!
Might take up 4WD? 😅
48:08 I love how as graham was talking about 12 volt gremlins one of his headlights went
Oh i see it
This is my favourite series for 2024!
Same
@@Aussiebuilds agree, both.
I’m loving the “how to live life without spending money” series lately
This is the 4wd action we all love to watch
I would honestly watch an episode/series on just bush mechanic fixes. The creativeness reminds me of the thrill of watching Macgyver as a boy.
Graham actually caught a fish, unbelievable
I've seen a number of these series opening the Oombulgurri track and being from the US and love to see them! I'd also love to see what this looks like later in the season to see how different it is. The challenge is wonderful to see but to see the comparison would be really interesting!
It's crazy what a wet season can do the the environment! We hadn't been there for a few years and while things might look similar to the past, lots has also changed!
@16:14 made me realize how many good shots you have to select from each trip. It was just a glimpse in the episode but oh!! Is beautiful!
Amazing photography too! Each time!
Thanks from Mexico!
In 1989, a customer broke a U bolt on his patrol in the Simpson. $22 U bolt, $1600 for plane then chopper to deliver it 😅
It’s got to be about 10 grand to get one delivered now.
Noted, carry spare ubolts 😂
@@Kingjayz14 Carry a spare car with you is my recommendation
Thank you guy's 🙂 👋 I clicked on one of your random video's recently, and I love these mini series and this Channel. And I am not even, a 4WD person. But, I would love to be tagging along (I am in spirit anyway 😁 !!! ). Thank you for helping to relax my mind, during a very stressful and trying time for me. I have severe chronic pain, and am unable to work anymore. And have just lost my home of 10 year's, recently. And I am waiting, to find another one. I love, your combined energy, your banter, and your enthusiasm. Your obvious, genuine passion for what you do. Your courage, your comradeship, and your teamwork. You are showing me parts of my own country, that I have never even seen before. And would never, be able to go there myself. You are all, educating me along the way. By sharing your many combined year's, of 4WD driving and camping experience with us. Thank you for all of your time, efforts, expense, planning, and for sharing this with us all. Wherever, we all may call home. I just wanted to say, Thank you from little old me 😁 !!! I have never, owned a 4WD or even driven one, nor been with anyone whom does. It just shows how well, you guy's put these video's together. That you can draw in viewers, whom have never experienced a 4WD adventure like myself. Nor know anything, about the equipment and setups you have on your vehicles etc. A big acknowledgement, recognition, and well earned praise, for all of your camera crew. That trust in you guy's, and that follow you through everything you do. And they work hard behind the scenes, in the heat, in the dust, in the humidity, in the rain, and in the mud. Your creative camera shots, and the angles are truly stunning. And they capture those moments of untamed beauty, and vastness so wonderfully. And you allow the countryside, to clearly and simply speak for itself. And for your time then spent afterwards, editing, narrating, and for the end production. The end production, really is top notch quality. Camera crew, you guy's should all be very proud of what you do, too. You guy's, are mostly unseen and unheard. So you guy's, are equally important. And these adventures captured in these video's, and this Channel wouldn't exist without you. And your commitment, to giving us the viewer, a premium, enjoyable, educative, relaxing, and always fun experience 😊 So Thank you all of you guy's, for all of the times, that you have made me laugh and smile. When real pain, and the accompanying exhaustion drain me. And when the pain tries its best, to rob me of laughter and smiling each day.
Anyway... I hope, that you guy's from 4WD/24/7 see this comment. And haven't minded, about the length of my comment 😉 😁 !!!!!!

🙏
Words cannot describe how much that means to us Melinda! Thank you so much for your support - we hope to continue to bring you the best videos we can! 🙌🏻
Hi 🙂 👋
Thank you for seeing, and for taking the time to read my comment 😁
Your very welcome. I meant, everything that I wrote. It took me a while to write it last night, but it did come from my heart. And I think people should know.
Whenever you appreciate and are grateful, for something from other's that you enjoyed. I am glad now, that I took my time to write it to you 😌
Thanks again (And I don't mind, if you send this on to everyone involved in your team. As a way for them to know, that what you produce on this Channel is worthwhile).
Melinda 😊 ~
P.S. The country you are showing here, reminds me of my childhood / and teenage years. Of watching my favourite outback Explorer, at the time. Being the late and humble, Malcolm Douglas. I would always look forward, to when I saw his next trip being advertised in the TV commercials. He had an obvious passion, for Australia, for our wildlife, and for our fauna. He showed me, and he educated me. About things, I had never learnt about our country at school. I was very shocked and saddened, when I heard of his tragic accident. I connected with him, moreso than the late Steve Irwin. Malcolm seemed, a quiet man. And the simple and free pleasures in life, seemed to be enough to forfill and to content him. I would have loved, to have tagged along with him. Or visited his wildlife park, whilst he still owned and operated it. So... Thank you, Malcolm Douglas. I think the Kimberley, is where his heart and soul are truly anchored ⚓️
Hope you didn't mind me, talking about the late Malcolm Douglas. An Explorer and an Educator, to many generations of Australian's.
48:10 12v gremlins took his light as he said it😂😂
One thing is for sure nobody can say the boys dont push the gear to the limit ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's nice to see Graham doing the tough stuff again.
Just a tip: try to avoid your chainsaw chain touching the dirt as you're cutting, because it makes it super dull very quickly, which makes all your later cuts far slower
Gotta give respect to these blokes pushing the limits and keeping us entertained love these guys
G'day fellas, I love when you film little pranks on each other, raises the sense of comradery between the team
I'm waiting for the gas filled balloon under the bonnet.... 😅
Shauno, for your 1st aid kit I recommend some Stop The Bleed kit like Combat Application Tourniquets (staged correctly). Israeli Bandages, Celox wound packing, chest seals etc.
Both in the Aid bag and as an IFAK. (If you chainsaw your leg, you ain't running back to Sooty for the CAT very easily!).
Some Sam Splints, Strapping Tape, Trauma Sheers and survival blankets wouldn't go amiss too.
New Beaut series fellas. Watching this channel has inspired me to finally get that old 75 series single cab cruiser we have rotting in the back paddock a new life! Rippa builds as always, and happy wheeling!
That's epic mate!
A ''Stumpstop'', i laughed my beer of the table when he said that 2:55
We go from tame Beers in the Shed to ''We're f*cked in the Kimberley". Roller coaster ride.
🤣 You know it
Good luck shauno with the radiator brotha. I always carry a package of jb weld putty with me. Has patched many a radiator to get me where I need to go and has lasted way longer than needed in some instances. Love all the videos. I'm in the US and can't get enough of every video. ❤
Love watching you guys! We have had this issue in the US when a RAD breaks. We bring liquid weld, JB weld, and even denture adhesive. There is also a great product that seals leaks in pools under pressure and water. Whenever we break something on the trail, the next trip we have the tools to fix it. You guys are AWESOME! :)
BTW I have an '04 GX470 (Prado) and a '97 Land Cruiser (Petrol) tripple locked from the factory. Would LOVE to run with you guys when/if you come to the US!
Unbelievable. This trip is the real deal. You guys are legends.
Great stuff as always. To answer the question at 14:30... I'd have a strap already on the back connected to a friend or anchor and go really slow at first to test it with the vehicle. I don't want to get eaten on a 4x4 trip.
"Like a frog in a sock." killed me XD Cheers from USA. You boys convinced me to buy an old 80 with your Grade A adventures. Ya'll take the best trips
Watching from KENYA 🇰🇪
Nova Scotia, Canada
When y'all do a huge adventure, y'all do a HUUUGE adventure!!!! This was insane! Much respect and love to you all. ❤
i surprised you dont have a premier power welder installed on one of the rigs. its a legit high-frequency welder you install in your truck. you can buy a spool gun to run it as a mig, or just run it as stick/arc welder.. ive watched rory @ trail mater on youtube weld several jeeps/trucks out in the middle of nowhere with it an get them back to the paved road. having a real legit welder on board would solve lots of trail fixes instead of junk straps an prayers .
They probably don't know about it as I'm guessing it's a US based product.
@@senditkevinI was also wondering if this was a thing but am Aussie, definitely not a common thing to need here with all the ways you can bush mechanics it 🤣
Love the stale kracker reference while cooking 😂
When you guys go on an adventure, you guys go on an EXTREME adventure! This was completely crazy! Love and respect to all of you.
Awesome episode, always great to see Shauno and Graham back together. Be good to see Reuben again on the show
Impressed. It's better than a Hollywood movie. I'm now waiting the last episode!!!
Hopefully you won't be waiting too long mate!
Great to see Azz and the big Mitts 79 again ❤😊
🤝🤝 it’s a weapon that thing
@@AzventuresAustralia both it and you mate 👍👍enjoyed your conversation with Toons too 👍
You guys are just absolutely awesome, the places you go is just pure motivation to get out and adventure.
Cheers legend! We're HUGE advocates for always heading out bush for an adventure every time you get 🤙🏻
Yes I been waiting for this!!
🎉Brilliant episode. The best, I can't recall the DMAX having any mechanical issues often OMG boys can't wait for the next episode
Man… always drops at bedtime on the USA West Coast. Guess we are staying up again 😂
Yessir its 3:30 for me
I'm in NZ. So I could have watched earlier, but didnt see it drop. I'm off to sleep, but will watch first thing in the morning - in bed, with a hot cuppa 👍🏼
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Nice little Stalecracker reference you through in there.
Man these two together is epic at Kimberley
waiting 🤞
Yess! This is the kind of content that gets my blood circulating! Great stuff boys!
I feel for ya Ronnie. As a Newfoundlander, we had our share of resettlements and plenty of old ghost towns that no longer exist in many outport harbors and off shore islands.
You guys are wiiild and crazy! I love it! As always, the video is great and amazing, and thanks to the film crew for all their hard work in putting together a quality show like all the others we have on the channel. I'm having a hard time being patient every time for the next one. It's also great to have Shawno and Graham back for a roadtrip like this! Don't give up, folks! Cheers! 🍻
Now that is definitely one crazy trek.......
Thanks for the share 🤙👍
I stupidly didn't tie off my fan during deep crossing at Gunshot and drove the fan through the back of the radiator in my 80 Series. Didn't notice it till I could smell a really hot engine at Cockatoo Ck. Luckily it only added three days onto the trip to drive to Bamaga and get a new radiator flown in from Cairns. I say lucky because if had been a Friday afternoon, then I wouldn't be able to even order the part till Monday. When remote, it pays to take things slow and careful, real careful.
Guys.......500mm or more of various sizes of HIGH TENSILE threaded rod, and nuts to suit. Cheap, PRICELESS spare. Also, an A frame of steel tube, to lift the winch cable
Pro-tip. Hook up a winch line with lots of slack to the rear of your vehicle before driving off into the bog hole. Saves a lot of time if needed, and does no harm if not needed.
Love your channel and all the off roading you do. Cheers

"Bit of Nimbin" had me in stitches!
Me too brother😂😂
Nice videos guys while i wait for another episode i watch your old ones from 6 years ago👍🏻
One of the best spares I have had over the years is not a new bolt/nut kit from bunnings etc, but a tray of all the bolts/nuts from patrols and landcruiser 4x4s collected from wreckers. I have spares of almost every, if not every, important bolt/nut on the rig.
Best 4wd channel on the planet. Best episode for a while too thanx lads.....
Can you guys please pull together an episode devoted to "bush mechanics" .....
Some of the work arounds you come up with are nxt level, I'm sure its not an easy ask from the editing dept but pullin out edits from previous "on track fixes" would be gold.
Loving Shaun n Graham together again, top episode.Cheers 🦘
By so far out in front it’s not funny, this is the best track that you fellas do. It has everything! 👍🏼
love when you guys tackle the Oombie !!
Episodes with Graham and Shauno are the best ❤
Love the star streak shots. Way different than in the USA.
Love the stalekracker references lol definitely didn't expect that!
This Is my dream destination
Same
Now these are the videos we like to see
Great series yet again guys. Enjoyed watching your antics for a couple of years. Regretting the day I sold my 93 Hilux Surf/ Forerunner.
I'm wondering though, on long trips like this, how much water do you actually carry?
As you're always crossing rivers, don't you carry filter systems and stock up daily with enough for a day or two? For under 100 dollars, these filters will do 500,000 litres.??
Can’t wait for the next episode boys.
You keep me in the bush when I’ve gotta be at home.
Just finished up the rubicon series... perfect timing! Wish I had a rig to get out, but this will do till then.
Ronny is indeed a good mate
Friend in need is a friend indeed
I love the outdoors, always have since i was a kid, Ive loved watching these videos and the real gritty moments of tips and tricks of getting through it.
Thanks for sharing this experience with us! Barra looks delicious!
I know your pain Shauno I blew the radiator and cooked the motor in my 1986 corona so now I own a 2003 Nissan Xtrail.Looking forward to the next episode to see how you fix your radiator.
keen for the next one. great story telling and adventure, really enjoying these style of videos, seems like its back to the original style from way back. Less fluff and all the good bits
Boys a tip making a u bolt … a short Chain with two short bolts to tension.
The spare wheel holder chain may work 👌.
Get show boys 👍
Some words from stalecraker at the dinner. Good Ole louisiana boy. I am proud of my home state in the States.
Just cracked open a beer perfect timing
Cheers mate have a good one, speaking of that, I might crack open a stubby 😂🍻
MAN ! 4WD 24-7 + the Kimberleys .. the best of the best !
Crop circle mystery solved ... 17:13 ...
Great episode guys. Thank you!
Hi Guys, love your videos. When you get a breakdown, if you need to weld something, get 2 or 3 batteries, connected in SERIES, ie, positive to negative, etc, to give you 24 or 36 volts, (use jumper leads) and then you can weld (helps if you have some welding electrodes on board) broken components to get you going. I had to use this system to get my Subaru 4WD wagon going again on Cape York track back in the 80's. I made it home. Hope this info gives you another option on your travels.
Just an awesome series, incredible 4x4 video...
come on sooty!! I know you can get through this!
Awesome video as always 4WD 24/7 Crew. This has been one epic adventure can’t wait to see how y’all make it out next episode. Also this question is for Shauno and Graham I’m in the market for a swag and stretcher to take in my 4WD what brand and company would y’all recommend for my first Swag? Thanks for letting us ride along with y’all on y’all’s adventures.
You'll be right shauno. Just Helicopter a new radiator in 😂
Radiator problem. Try to seal off the leaking tubes with a pair of needle none pliers, before using a soldering iron to finish off the job. If you think that the repair is not perfect, leave the radiator cap unsealed, to reduce the pressure. Hope this helps. I have used this in the past, but not always with diesels, sometimes with my modified petrol engine vehicles.
First comment. I love your channel. Its my favorite overall RUclips channel. Its so fun to watch y'all
best episodes ever
One of these days, I'd love to ship my 4x4 to Australia and get going on this track. By then, I'll be solid axle swapped and maybe even diesel swapped, dual locked, and hopefully 35 inch tires.
Boeuf bourguignon 👍
Best 4x4 show and i dont even have one 🔥
Hello from Brazil, I'm a 4wheller in BR, my brother lives in AU... great video, kudos to everyone such a nice content! You shoul try something in south america like a patagonia trip, there are some amazing places to go there
Hey Shauno... I don't know how big your hole in the radiator is... BUT if it's moderate to small, I've used egg whites and pepper .. hand full of pepper with a couple egg whites.. dump it in (while hot is better) and the pepper and egg white mixture finds the hole and seals it ... Temporarily but I've actually had it "cure the leak"
I have been waiting for this next episode. I love it! Greetings from Switzerland
G'day mate! Glad you enjoyed the ep 🙌🏻
I'm that carrier of stuff that noone think but it always comes in handy 👍🙃
2 weeks Ive been waiting for this! I can sleep better now cheers!!
Excellent mini-series.
for the leaking radiator own for a radiator fromTHE SKY DELIVERY THE COPTER?and a few lites of anti freeze?
Fantastic stuff, Boy's. ♥
With all of the spare tires and patch kits that you bring on big adventures like traversing the Kimberly, have you looked into low temperature vulcanization repair kits? This material is used on even large sidewall damage in the American rock buggy racing series. They shred their tires fairly often, take them home after the event, patch them and hit the next event at wide open throttle again. This is Not a highway patch system, but would definitely keep you moving deep in the bush! Love the videos guys!
Hi from France 🇲🇫, Nice to hear you speak French Shauno ( bœuf bourguignon , nice meal 😊)
Epic cant wait for episode 3
Pepper or an egg depending on how big the hole is to get you out. 😉🤙😎
Onboard welder would be a good upgrade.
This is why leaf spring >> coil spring in the outback.
