the best part about the video is coming to the comments and reading them, like honestly who cares what kind of SNOW tracks he is running, im sure he is having a fun time with the set of tracks he has.
👍🏻
Sean were do you get the instmetal music from on your videos
Good to see you both got your rigs out safely! I'd say it was definitely a wise choice to turn around when you did given the snow depth and the challenges with Pauls rig. Was up there a few days later and once you get past the cabin into the open alpine it gets even more stressful and sketchy to navigate things safely. Especially in such a wet and heavy snow pack. It's an exponential increase in learning curve that can be stressful but definitely glad you aren't going to give up! As always, incredible footage and story telling Shaun! 1M or bust.
Shawn I love how to try and stay positive through all the hardships and roadblocks that come from off-roading! I also love when Paul comes on adventures with you. He seems like a cool and chill guy!
Awesome video as always Shaun. This was a epic adventure even known that y'all didn't make up the trail like y'all wanted to but sometimes that's what makes a adventure to remember. Those snow tracks are always handing y'all a hole heap of trouble but your always up for a challenge and y'all figure it out and have another great adventure. Thanks for letting us ride along with y'all on y'all's adventures.
Forget the trax, get some General Grabber Arctic LT's.
Still a great video, it's cool to see the rigs basically maxed out for depth in the snow.👍
love the track vehicles going through the snow-you adjusted, were entrepreneurial (shifting existing resources to higher levels of yield). Continue to innovate--the video shots are still sublime, the country gorgeous, the vehicles are great looking too. You have advanced the sport of off roading immensely.
Thank you
Cool 2. Trak rigs! That is some serious snow! 😮 Never a dull moment!Thanks😊
I just got building my first rig for off-roading and this channel makes me love the adventure
Great video! See you soon for some more snowy adventures. March is usually pretty darn good up here.
I’m not sure how significant the cost behind it would be but next winter you should consider doing an winter/ice road trip…there’s tons of cool little reserves and communities in the northern ends of the provinces and territories that are strung together by miles of winter roads that would make for an epic video series. I travel between them for work and it’s unlike anything you’ll ever experience.
Thanks for showing me to never get tracks and savimg money with these videos. They only work in ideal/perfect conditions which rarely occur. Ill stick to sleds for snow riding. You do make the best off roading videos. Keep it up!
Tracks work awesome as I’ve running them with zero issues. Shawn’s been setting his up and that’s part of the game.
@@Justjeepingadventuresjust seems like alot of work to be only used in specific snow conditions.
I’m not trying to sell anyone on buying them I’m just doing what I want to do.
@@MH-py1ouI’ve had mine out lots and never been stuck. Not to say I haven’t but I’ve been out over a dozen times alone this year. Lots of trail time on them and know how they work very well.
They are for snow. As Shawn mentioned though, you don’t go out on dirt roads. Snow in general they’ll be fine. I’ve surpassed lots of rigs and even did some rescues with these already.
These keep me on track. 😝
@@TheStoryTillNowfacts! Enjoy what you love to do is exactly why I have them too. Keep it going man; you’re doing it right.
Hey Shawn. I just heard what you did for Tyler from Let’s get lost. Man to say that was a kind gesture or really cool. Would be the understatement of the decade. What you did as well as the random rescues you have done just proves how 4x4 people are considerate and conscious of others and what’s going on around us. Way to go! 👍👍👍
Great cinematography of this adventure. Thanks for sharing this trip and getting off the beaten path!
I love your videos it helps me manage my Jeep better in any terrain. I’ve even made an appointment to do some modifications aswell. Keep the videos coming 🙌🏽
Amazing video and amazing rigs in action,loved it 💯👌🏼can’t wait to see you guys completing the adventure safely on the next time
Cant wait for the day we see a successful trax run!
It was awesome seeing those tracks get some good miles underneath them. Next year will hopefully be better for some snow. So cool!
just watched some videos of tracked off road vechicles and helltraxx came out on top.
Another epic video Shaun and Paul, considering everything I think you guys did really well
Fun video to watch guys , I enjoyed that while having coffee. I haven’t tried tracks but I know what it’s like being stuck and needing to have patience to get out of it. Tracks aren’t perfect , neither are tires . You have to try things to figure out what works and what doesn’t. People think they know things based on watching videos alone , if only life were that easy. Thanks for the awesome footage and all the work it took to get it !! 👍
Cheers
Double Trax is the way to go. Ask Dave Sparks about his double tracker hellcat jeep
I’d agree but also could make the truck too wide 🤷♂️
@@Fparrish I’d say a little too wide would be better than getting stuck too often. Snow wheeling isn’t usually on tight technical trails so I think they would come in more handy than inconvenient.
I don’t normally chime in on Shawn’s video. I’m local and run tracks as well. There’s nothing wrong with the tracks he’s running. It’s a new set up. Also, the tracks that some people are referring to would not work with our trails. You’ll be hitting stumps and trees everywhere. Heavy D can only run those in the open Alpine. There’s nothing fun about driving over a bunch of snow in an open field.
K back on track…
@@Justjeepingadventures you should chime in more 🤙🏼
For these over night camping trips with the tracks. I think i would come up with a system that includes enough tarp and enough propane to wrap around each track and heat them over night.
Great content as always 💪🏼
❤👍 Thanks For The Ride !!
Hey guys, good try.
Check out Murphy's Diesel Recovery. WRECKER RICK, the owner runs tracks on their RAM DIESEL recovery vehicles. They've been doing well with their setup. Maybe they can help you out with your RAM.
See you next time.
lest’s get it on love the nature stuff and the jeeps.. watching from the philipines
I go through MAYBE 15-20% more fuel on my tracks. 50% seems excessive. Maybe because you’re in 4high which will burn more.
Great video. Tell Paul you need to crawl and not hit the gas!
I drive a bit agressive lol
😂
If you get stuck bad enough, give me a shout, and I’ll head up on my tracks.! My jeep is a little bit lighter than yours.
Plus you have a powerplant most guys dream of. It's not how much power you have, it's how much you have to spare!@@TheStoryTillNow
I was talking to the owner of the company that makes your tracks. You should Call and ask him to send you a set of the sprockets they make so your track stop skipping over the cogs. Great Video.
I already have them installed for the next trip
Buddy you ispired me, last week i finally was able to grab a Jku! 😄 Cheers from italy!!
I've had my MattTracks on my USMC Growler M1663 for a better part of 5 years and haven't had none of the issues you've had. These have ran over everything on the farm and haven't even broke a bogey wheel yet. What gives?? Still love watching you guys get stuck though, those are my favorite parts so don't change NOTHING 🤣🤣🍻
People always comment about how they run over everything on different tracks. If you ran over rocks with a snowmobile, you’re bound to have something go wrong. He’s already said that in his video. I’ve been out many many times on my tracks and as long as you stay in the snow, they were perfectly fine. Our trails are very tight and when you fold a track, it puts pressure on the buggy wheel.
That ram is sick. I would like to get tracks for my rig. Keep making awesome videos love it.
Love these videos!
Get some 42 inch treps on that gladiator . Eff them tracks ..
42’s are not coming close to tracks.
I feel like you almost had it here. I’m personally not a 4WD tracks fan (these videos are still amazing tho), but I’m excited you’re getting closer to your goal. I’m definitely looking forward to the video when you successfully accomplish your mission. Get it man!
Yep. We did that kinda stuff on tracks 40 years ago. It's called a snow mobile! Hahaha.
another great video, very challenging, would love to see a behind the scenes how you take drone footage, its immense.... well done guys
Thanks for the video
It would be interesting to see 4x4 tracks that are shaped like boats instead of triangle.
Maybe use the lanyards that came with the MaxTraxs 😂 another great video from TSTN!
Wow great adventure 💯👍👍
amazing video nature and trip
I have an H1 and a Unimog, both upgraded to the hilt. I've always wanted to do tracks. My concern is the weight, I fear I'd just sink in deep snow. Right now my H1 is on 48s, lifted, pro build. Unimog is same but kept more original. Edit: Sorry guys. Wicked ass video, great run. Looking forward to more. Great aerial shots. Great video!!!
Great video as always! Would love to go on an adventure with you one day
I see tracks are not the end all be all. I would never spend that much for such little gain and alot of up keep.
At 19:00, Paul looks like the Star Wars Emporer! 🤣
Question how hard is it to convert your Trailwrecker back to wheels? Spring is coming after all.
Time for a set of helltrax! Just not sure if youll fit on the trail, they may be a tad wide!
I can't imagine the power steering system needed to turn those on a mountain trail. I'll stick with my ATT tracks.
Great video ❤️✨👌🏽
I really want tracks for my Jeep, but I would really like to design my own. I have tracks for my CanAm 800 outlander max and they are a blast. One thing I have learned is that the tracks need an upswept design to help you climb on top of the snow instead of diving through it. On my camoplast tracks the front boggie wheels are about 8 inches up to the center of the wheel from the bottom of the track, this really helps get on top of the snow. The rears of my tracks are flat sort of how yours look and they tend to dig in and make backing up a chore. The main snow I really have trouble in is super dry sugar snow, it is easy to get stuck in that. We haven't had enough snow in the big horn mountains of wyoming this year for me to even install my atv tracks, hopefully later this week I will take the Jeep out and see how well I can get around on tires in anticipation of elk shed hunting.
Awesome!
Epic kick ass video
I'm just a Florida boy but the tracks looks like a pain in the ARSE. Dang that was a lot of Daytona Beach sand.
I feel like this episode is an Xzibit meme about getting stuck.
"Yo dawg..."
Another great one Shaun!
“I heard you like getting stuck” 😂
Cool video
Get a hold of Diesel Brothers and see what brand tracks they used. theirs looks like a double track
Your videos are money, the shots and colors you get are amazing, even in low light. What camera and drone are you using? I assume you shoot on a flat picture profile and color grade in post! Great video!
Gleason Torson diffs would help alot
When you run tracks do you have your lockers engaged all the time or does it just depend on the trail conditions? When do or don't you use them?
I mean this as a compliment. You get stuck better than most overlanders. You don't seem to have any fear of getting stuck but you aren't just recklessly "sending it". I have learned a lot watching your recoveries.
I saw a Bombardier B1 with center wheels replaced with a skid like on a snowmobile. May be better for off-road than delivering the mail?? Uses a Chrysler engine too, I believe.
Those tracks are a liability imo. You said they arent meant for this condition, or that condition, etc. I am curious what the target customer is, if its not you/your style of offroading. I am always a fan of cool products like this, but these seem better for mall crawling for clicks on instagram than anything.
Love the rig. Where did you have to get the wheels from? As I understood these are standard snowmobile wheels. Maybe an idea to check a sled shop for parts
As a Videographer - you always make great content so well done. Always entertaining.
Tough conditions - It is a shame the lower wheels are not pneumatic and so would give some play over uneven ground and possibly less likely to break. I am sure the design engineers considered that though.
Wow,,so great 👍.
Where is that?
I feel like there a better track set up. Like what has been on Sparks Motors on the cyber truck and AMW Hellcat gladiator. Seems more robust.
People that don’t know tracks always come on and talk about max tracks. They will not work in the conditions that we are in. Heavy d will only be able to go in Alpine snow. The trails we do are narrow and they are also about $50,000. Lol.
@@Justjeepingadventures I never pretended to know about tracks. I just know what UA-cam shows me on them. I just said I feel like there is a better answer.
@@Eveloffroadfair enough. I’ve been running tracks on my Jeep for a while and zero issues. He’s setting his up. He’s also local to me but we haven’t gone out together yet. They work great as long as you’re in snow as he pointed out too.
🙌
THE UNIQUE CONTENT
That's good, It should help getting the power to the tracks. I find less hp the better when it comes to staying on top of the snow. That's what works for me. Isn't this winter strange?
Sucks you had to turn around, but the snow is good and I know you'll figure it out. Tracks are amazing in the right conditions
Have you thought about making the Jeep fit some 49s or something for winter mode and really get some floatation. You’d be able to use some horsepower in situations when you burry a track. And also be able to rock back and forth among other things… also all the weight you are rolling with probably doesn’t help much either.
At least you have enough fuel for the next adventure lol
Boldly go were no man has gone before
Yo hoooo🎉
So now that you have the tracks off your rig would you recommend tracks?
Depends what you want to do. They’re a lot of fun but you’d have to use them a lot of get your moneys worth and this isn’t the best climate for that.

sangat baik dan menantang kemampuan pengemudi, salam sukses...
Hell traxxx please get them 🤣🤣only 50gs
Let’s gooo 😂✌🏽❤️
Check out Casey Ladelle, he put tracks on his Ram, but they were way better than the cheapo tracks your both running.
I can't imagine anything less than Dana 60s handling these tracks. What axles is the power wagon running?
Just factory axles
Rubicon 44’s work just fine on rcvs
you should check out the hell tracks @heavyd sparks has on his AMW jeep
How many snowmobiles + sleds can you get for the cost of one set of traxs?
Not enough for me to care about riding a snowmobile.
So now I’m curious….you said because of the tracks design the gear reduction is pretty aggressive…..what works best for your truck low or high range?
High with the tracks
That’s what I figured…..just started the new vid so pardon me if you mention that later in the vid. 😁 👍🏽👍🏽
Those tracks are really good for groomed trails but not great for deep snow off-road snow
You need Heavy D tracks. Same one they put on the tesla truck
Those are too wide, too heavy, and too expensive to be practical for our purposes. The width would stop them from even making it onto a trailer (legally) to get to the trail.
@@TheStoryTillNow fair enough. That makes sense. 👌 but those tracks look way more robust and agile.
Putting tracks on an ifs ram is.... ballsy to say the least. Great vid tho!
Tracks are cool in theory....
They’re also not meant to be driven as fast as you do. If you slowed down and didn’t blast around everywhere on them they would last a lot longer.
This year sucks for snow, not normal for the PNW. 👍🏻❤️🇺🇸
Dude that is so cool what you can do in that deep snow
👍👍
😎👍
I came down to some question of how snow depth can be measured in front of the truck, and prevent getting stuck.
After are few minutes of small "research" via Google, I found two possible options. First method is laser based remote sensors, and second method relies on satellites.
The first method is quick. It is basically a laser which scans area of 15 meters in front of the truck and gives you the snow depth, before you put wheels on in. The laser is not small, and I am not sure about the $, but I can dig into it out of curiosity.
The second method via satellites is slow, but it can give you initial information of the snowe depth along the trail. The method is slow, because the satellite must scan the same area within few hours again. It is like a snapshot of satellite data every few hours.
The laser method looks promising, but the laser itself seems bulky and it will require a separate power station. If that technology gets better, and the laser becomes smaller, it can be attached near the KC bar.
I like it
U need a sherp
Yes
You guys are not afraid of Avalanche?
When the track's jump the cogs you know the tracks are garbage,
whoa allready pauls rig aint light but neither is ur those monster tracks may be not too bad of an idea but the price is
What brand of tracks are they because they look like they are kinda cheap and not worth the money they pop and skip so much.
You run tracks? Have to ask because I do. Slipping isn’t any indication whether they are cheap or not.
It’s called ratcheting and sometimes it happens. Track may be a tad loose. It also happens on sleds.
👌
My mattracks don’t do what I’ve seen these doing. 105m1-a1
@@codeep12 go loosen them up and they will. Skipping on a Jeep or a sled, or does happen. I’ve had it happen many times on my sled.
You run wider tracks? If so, they won’t work in these trails we have.
Only way dodge ram, and jeep can off road 😂
Seems like to many problems leading to waaaaaaay to expensive. But cool toy if you got the 💰💰💰💰 to throw away.
Not sure what problems you’re talking about, we didn’t have any problems.
@@TheStoryTillNow I'm not talking about problems you had on the trip. I'm talking about all the up keep in parts constantly being replaced. I'm just not sure it's worth the swap for tracks with the limitations of terrain. But they are cool 😎 if I could afford a jeep just for tracks I'm not saying I wouldn't. 😂 Love the channel the quality of video is top shelf.
Those tracks seem to suck For deribility I'd be looking for some better quality ones
Any track running over rocks only take so much. You need to think snowmobile. Lol. Snow mobiles don’t go on rocks either.
