Nice! Moab rim is a tough trail. Glad your breakage didn't hinder you making it back down.
Ditto, it could have been bad
Nice driving dude, beautiful trail.
Fantastic as always, definately 2000 lbs of fun. The best scenic part of course is that shirt, WOW !👍🏝🔧⚙
Moab Trail was fun at EJS 2022. I didn't know until the next day that two people died on that trail. I needed a winch on Devil's Crack. Guess that's why they say it's between 7-8. :) Awesome video, keep 'em coming!
Great video guys, thanks
Awesome video. I was at the campground just past the trailhead a couple weeks ago and watched some rented side by sides get stuck trying to get down in the dark. They spent 4 hours coming down that last part of the trail. I rode it on my dirt bike and it is gnarly. So many ledges.
Great video!
How were you able to continue with a grenaded rear end? That’s crazy.
We not only finished the trail, but we drove back to Colorado…towing our trailer. The next day I heard a weird sound from the diff, drained the oil, and found metal chunks
@@TrailTraveler you were very lucky! Could have been so much worse. Stock axles and 38’s are really pushing it. Time for some 60’s or tons!
What did you end up doing for a repair?
@@mikesters3532 Turned out we actually broke the pinion on the rear and the ring gear on the front. We changed the gearing from 5:38 to 5:13 on both. This will provide stronger gears.
@@TrailTraveler did you notice a difference in power dropping to 5.13s?
@14:57 the kid starts walking backwards without regard to the ledge to his right. This could have ended very badly 😮, glad it didn’t.
Unbelievable it's even legal to attempt this in your vehicle.
It is only legal if you stay on the defined trails. You cannot just drive anywhere.
How did you find out you broke
When slowing down, you could hear a clicking sound and a noticeable feeling. We pulled the drain plug on the differential housing and chunks of metal came out.
My renegade trailahwk can do this right? Colorado mall crawlers said I’m good to go? 😂
Not sure how you would make it over some of the ledges, but there "might" be lines you could take. If you can make it 1/2 mile in, you can do the rest of it
Did you find out anything about the Pinion? Weak point? I know you mentioned what caused it, but any further investigation and synopsis? Yukons right?
I was bouncing the tires and when they grabbed traction, something had to give. Having 38" Nittos didn't help as they are pretty heavy. Total driver error. Yes, they are Yukons, but it wasn't a weak point, it was bad driving.
@@TrailTraveler Gotcha. Yeah I was talking to Chris at The Edge the other day about new gears and axles. I was just curious if you found out something other than Driver Error, haha.. Great Video!
Bummer those Yukon gears broke.
Wonder why ?
Time for tons and 40s.
Just a stupid driver mistake. I was feeling rushed and didn’t think through it well
@@TrailTraveler Didn't seem like much to break the gears. Glad it didn't mess up your trip.
@@TrailTraveler I don't think that this was the result of any significant driver error. I think it was the result a combination of big tiers on a very small pinion. It was bound to happen.
@@Marty1911 if you watch carefully, you will see the mistake I made. I let the tires start spinning and then they grabbed traction. The gears were the weak link.
@@TrailTraveler I'm not saying that you hit it perfectly, but who ever does hit everything 100% finesse? Those 38's on a JL axle don't leave much margin for error.
Would have been a good video without the music.
We tried doing videos without music and people said they were boring. What would we do during drone footage, just have no sound at all? Can't please everyone.
*Turn of the Fjukin Background music, we'd rather listen to tires and rocks!*
When I did that people complained that the videos were boring without music, and drone footage has no sound at all. You just can’t please everyone.
@@TrailTraveler maybe put the music at a lower volume....
@@mikenightdivr1986 the music is generally 1/3 the volume of the dialog. Unfortunately, the radiator fan drones out most of the tire and rock noise, and if you prefer the fan noise over some music, I really don’t know what to suggest.
Where’s the break thumbs down 👎, fake
I even showed a picture of the broken pinion gear, did you not watch the video?
