  • The Victorian High Country - home of freezing cold weather, stunning views and epic campsites - not to mention insane 4WDing! In this episode of 4WD Action, Graham, Shaun and the boys hit up the High Country’s toughest tracks in the middle of winter!
    From soft snow to insane hill climbs, these tracks will not only put their 4WDs to the test, they’ll put their driver’s abilities to the test as well! Don’t be fooled into thinking the High Country is an easy going off-road adventure - these tracks bring new meaning to the word tough! From insane winch recoveries to a kilometre long hill that took them over ten hours to conquer, you’ll be blown away by how much off-road action the High Country has on offer in the middle of winter! So grab a nice warm cupper, light the fire and stay warm - because this DVD is an absolute cracker!

    It's been great to watch rocket really start coming into his own as part of the group, I've been a follower and mag buyer for a few years now and it's great to see him develop himself as a character on the show, was a standout in this episode and felt like giving him some recognition for it, seems like it can be hard to stand out amongst you blokes are you are both charasmatic and confident on camera. Keep it up and keen to see rocket in some more DVDs

    One of the best I have seen. They broke the mould with this one.
    The quality of the equipment is testament to the team and its providers. The gas didn't freeze on the camper. the fridges didn't over cool and freeze the chicken. The winches didn't burn out. Playing in that extreme weather is lethal if your not prepared.
    I have completed arctic warfare training and these guys did well. I have not seen any other off road team do this yet,,,, you have thrown down the gauntlet gents,,,, well done.

      Cesar Moreno where they’re in Australia mate which is right down south is probably under 16 degrees Celsius most of the year. Opposite to you guys in the US. Australia is North=hot.. South= cold most or the year anyway... but yes Australian cold compared to North America cold not really on the same level!

    i found with hills as slippery as this stuff, keep it in low 4, 1st gear and idle down. keep the wheels rotating and you will be able to keep alot of your steering control. you lock it up and your going where ever the rocks or washouts take you. being in Tasmania, hill climbs are easy to come across and this can be the difference between rolling and having fun. great vid guys, love your stuff and Merry X-Mas to all everyone on the 4WD Action crew.

    Best joke I've heard shaun. (Sorry if I spelled it wrong lol) I absolutely love watching these. I'm from the U.S. and off roading is more of smaller faster vehicles. But 4x4 trucks and suvs aren't used for this here where I am. I absolutely love this and want to get my own, and explore. Even tho ive camped many places and for a long time all it seems I did was camp. Going on a track somewhere is something totally different.

  • @hvati
    @hvati 6 лет назад +1

    Great video guys. I have one tip for you when you're driving down steep hills. Keep the car in 1st or 2nd gear, depending on how slow you need to go, and don't clutch unless you need to stop the car. Let the engine do most of the braking. If you keep it in gear and apply the brakes gently you'll have no lock ups on the wheels which gives you better control and smoother ride. Best regards from Iceland, up north on the other side :)

    As a Canadian watching you fellas fight the cold was really amusing. You guys make some of the highest quality 4wd films keep them up. I would have loved to see the 1000 bucks lux on this trail. Twin transfer cases are popular here and the USA wonder if more gearing would help some of you fellas out? Probably not popular given how much sand you guys typically tackle.

    • @davogeorge4525
      @davogeorge4525 6 лет назад

      I'd imagine twin transfer case's are a necessity on a lot of those giant F series trucks and the real long wheel base American trucks with about 12" lift and 40"s?

    • @RocklandRednecks
      @RocklandRednecks 6 лет назад

      They have doubler cases and specialized cases in the large 1/2-3/4 ton trucks but the toyota fellas just have geared up a way in which to put two gear driven cases inline with each other so you can get double low range, first done by marlin crawler makes it super controllable on hills and great for eliminating wheel spin and allows the low HP 4cyls to really excel on the trail.

      4-AGE 84 AE71 (its just sat it the yard at the moment... warped the head, doesnt like not having a limiter)
      Also... double lo range sounds good. Then again my brumby & sportswagon dont even have lockers.. (doesnt help that LSDs are 1500+ for them....)
