One Lap at the Battle in Bluegrass - Ultra4 - Raw in Car POV
Strap in for a lap in the Sherpa Motorsports 4Runner as Alex battles a blown front diff and slick track conditions in the first lap of the Main Race. With the car not at 100% a smooth and steady pace was key to get a finish and the hope was attrition would set in, which it did.

Cool to see the progression. Been following you guys for a while, since the RM racks days (love that rack). Excited to see what you bring out to KOH this year -JK
Great race coverage! I even saw that both my Dodges made cameos! Good job team!
great race, great video, just the right mix of music and that sweet V8 sound!
That helmet cam view is sick! More of that please🤙🤙 love this team!
Great race guys. Such a huge accomplishment to finish let alone 3rd in class.
Good work! Love the quality of the content!
Nothing good came out of ARB jack 😊
I have a video of this truck from where I was spectating at V2R. Was one of my favorites!!
Awesome, good on ya boys !!
Oh heck yeah! This is awesome. Are you guys still on the original engine/transmission?
We were untill King of the Hammers this year. We blew the motor after losing a fan clutch. The motor had over 220k on it. We built a new motor at hammers and then replaced the trans right before this race so everything is fresh.
So good, David!! Well worth the time spent in the edit.
Epic
Solid work, pretty good job putting the video together. Plenty of variety in the angles love it!
Glad you love it!
God Bless, Good Health , and may you prosper.
You guys should bring along a small step stool for the refueling guys.
That would be awesome haha
Awesome work, guys! Congrats. Also, that's super nice being able to run pump gas. We had to deal with so many drums of 110 to fuel 2 cars at this race, and were filling dump cans from drums in the hotel parking lot for hours the night before the race. Filling dump cans at the pump between pits would be so much easier. Getting a 4600 car to the end of this race is so awesome. Really stoked for you guys.
Pump gas is soooo nice. I love the smell of race gas but don't envy the logistics of running race fuel.
Congratulations guys from a Brit that has been folowing for seems like forever.
My favorite race team out there. Hats off to your pit crew and hats off for a 3rd place finish! Y’all killed it!
Thank you!
Sick man great race, Have you boys messed with Cantilever rear suspension on a 5th gen yet? Not a race truck im sayn.
We have not.
Solid watch for lunch break. See you KOH dudes
Thank you!
So damn proud of this team. Everything is paying off boys!
The video title should be Putting an FJ Cruiser Transfer Case in a Race Truck.
You guys run Icon's IIC system? What inputs does it use? G-force and vehicle speed? To meet rule 3.9.7-2 I imagine it cannot or must not be enabled to use shock position? Is this something the team has to block in the software or did Icon pretty much produce these shocks for 4600 class? In the same vein the rule states you can't use position but I guess velocity (dx/dt) is okay? The whole system seems like it would be a lot of fun to mess with and tune.
Hi John, The shocks do not have any sensors, it is all based on G-Force inputs on the vehicle chassis and adjusts the CDC based on those inputs. It is a unique and cool way to do it, it fits within the Ultra4 rule book and works very well.
Would this be any different installing on a GX470? I think the linkage would fit with less modifications
Wow, what a great team y'all have! LOL @ 3:22 Y'all were killing it!
So what did you do to address the lack of an ADD front diff with he FJ case? Has there been any issue with wear in the T-Case or is it a non issue?
It has not been an issue in our application. Though highway speeds for long periods of time is where you'll see the issue occur. Everything in the case is spinning so it builds up pressure and will push oil out of the shift boot.
@@sherpaec Do you think tapping the case and adding a breather line similar to what other cases have would solve this?
What are the torque settings for the cam bolts? Thanks
We usually shoot for 150ft lbs.
I want to swap my 2wd fj into 4wd, how difficult would this be. Would it be a simple transmission swap along with a transfer case
This is such a cool POV. Really diggin' this!
🥩
Awesome job👏🏻
Great video, enjoying watching you race. I've been following your build for a while. Fellow 4th Gen owner and operator. What went out in the front diff? Great driving racing in 2wd at the end.
Thank you! We won't know till we tear into it. Currently, the car is down in Texas and will be on display at the Toyota Jamboree event this weekend. Presumably the R&P but too be determined.
Awesome job guys
Thank you!
I love this truck.
Thank you!
Are you running a factory ECM/ECU? Also have a 4th gen myself, been following you guys for about year now. Love the content on the 4th gen.
At the time of this video, we were running the stock ecu. We have since upgraded to a Tune by MBP Tuned K-Line ECU's through @Moddedbyphil on Instagram. Been liking it a lot so far, but only have one race under our belt with it. instagram.com/moddedbyphil/?hl=en
@@sherpamotorsports much appreciated. Keep up the content
Awesome!
A great day of racing all. Hopefully you guys can find some new products to strengthen the parts that broke. GOD BLESS,GOOD HEALTH AND MY YOU PROSPER !!!!
Thank you!
YEEEEEEEHAWWWWW SKO SHERPA
SKOOOOO!
best way to solve bent flat tabs?
I would recommend the Total Chaos Cam Tab Gusset Kit!
pretty cool to see you guys running that 4Runner hard without any bypasses!
Thanks!
holy crap this is beautiful😢
I know this video is many years old but can anybody tell me where those coil spring perches came from that you welded onto the truss? I just swapped the rear diff in my Sequoia and was searching for something like that but had no luck finding anything
We actually designed and cut these ourselves. That said you can buy some that are very similar here. www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/CoilSpringOptions.html
@@sherpamotorsports Thanks for the link. I dreamt up a trick where I cut 6" diam circles of 1" thick UHMW. Then I heated them with a torch and sunk my rear springs into the soft plastic about a ½". It perfectly formed around the bottom of the spring. Then cut a hole in the center to bolt to the Barnes 4WD axle perches and bam! Worked amazing actually!
@@treehouseoffroad thats perfect! They really dont need much to hold them in
Been following you guys since your beginnings and you truly are my favorite racing team. Keep kicking @ss and having fun guys!! You'll get on the pode next year for sure!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Awesome video! You'll get it next year 💪
Great job guys. 👏
nicely done!
You guys crushed it! I have a feeling you guys will have a lot of success at the other races this year. Incredible content, amazing truck, and great people. Great stuff all around - appreciate you guys making these vids!
Thank you! We sure hope so! Glad you are liking the videos!
Who does your body work haha? Thats an inspiring build, I have a 06 v8 4Runner, i hope to get proficent in fab work one day.
We do all the body work ourselves! Thank you!
