- Got the rest of the machine sealed up and ready to go. Why not go ahead and drop it off in some deep tropical storm ditch water?

This Machine Just Swims in the water ... Awesome :)
Truly awsome build! Glad too see you back on it again.
I love your machine. Good work. Keep it up and please continue to make videos
Some day try Mahindra thar.
DOZER GAMING those I believe are an India special, we don’t get that in the USA at least not yet
Not that good. Roxor is better i feel. Thar is heavier than this thing.
Man the car he is actually thar sold in usa under the name of roxor. But he has modified his thar aka roxor with tractor tires, new turbo and diff. Locks. In other words, his roxor is better than 99.99 % of thars you have seen in your life.
@@kamalpreetsinghgill1396 look at roxor dimensions. Roxor is much smaller than thar
Mahindra thar off-road king.
I liked the way you showed how far mahindra can go. No fuss.only action.🚤
Love the videos fr I wish they were a little longer and u posted more but understand every one is busy with other stuff 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Thanks and yeah I know I wish I had more time
I have seen the thar version of these work for the police in waist deep waters during floods back in 2000s. Trust me, push it it can go way deeper.
I like this style of Jeeps with the lifted skinny tyres better then the other trucks
I just love watching your dog. I think he is enjoying more watching your live. Have fun
Awesome video man, looked a little worried about the pups at the end lol
Yeah big brother bit her in the neck lol
Awesomeness, that thing just chugs along like it's nothing! Happy to see another vid, how's it holding up?
Its going great, I dont even worry about it. The build is solid
Dont zip tie to hot exhaust pipe it will melt for sure. Silicon on any of those plugs or plastic barb fitting wont hurt it would just make a sure seal.
Hey man thx for helping me at Sabine today I was the one who got my waders stuck 10/12/19
No problem!
Hope u used some of the dielectric grease on those electrical connections underneath that hood and underside of that awesome rig!
I've never thought about the water resistance of winches until just now.
It's a beautiful machine
I’d bet you can get into one of these much cheaper and more capable than a side by side as a farm helper.
I bet some states would let you plate it, it’d be fine on city streets.
Seems like states east of the MS make it more difficult to get "non-street legal" rides legal to ride on the streets. Most states west of the MS are more lenient. I didn't even have to get my SxS inspected to see if it was steet legal (AZ). Just registered and insured is all that was needed.
Awesome.. ready to hit any terrain..💪
Enjoyed as much as your dog. Thanks.
That's alot of enjoyment lol
Maybe use some black fuel line for the line running under the dash and up the side of the windshield ! It would look a lot cleaner !!
I agree with you I was thinking the same thing
@@RedWhiteRoxor Is that plastic fitting and tubing fuel or petroleum rated? I'd hate to see it break down right where it goes into a gear box and you don't know it until it's too late. With fuel line you know that won't happen. I'd also zip tie a piece of sacrificial fuel line around the vent line everywhere that it has a chance to rub against some thing under the vehicle.
@@wjf213 I guess is worth looking into, but the fitting is the same material as the one I pulled out of the case. And the fuel line is called fuel line so I didnt put any extra thought into it lol. Worth looking into
If that fan isn’t clutched I’d be scared taking it under water. Especially if it’s bolted to your crank. Easy way to break your crank and bye bye engine.
mahindra wonderlyst and daybreak was great mod by mahindra i love it
If the transmission and differrential lubricants are the same, there shouldn't be an issue with combining the vent lines. Up by the radiator, you've effectively created an airlock which should be fine. Those check vavles that you removed look like the manufacturer used a cheap fix for the problem of water ingestion into the diffs and trans. I have to look at my ride to see how it was done (not a Roxor).
Why don't you ask your dog to jump in ? Lol😂
U r like a small kid, who is enjoying playing in the water
Why you didn't use anything to fight of Rust..
Easily there are coats available for car undercarriage to prevent it from Rusting. I did it so I know
Its time to get redemption where you got stuck before! Man now is no better time! It's got to be wet!
Best video
The mods should work just fine. You guys got way more rain than we did.
Only concern would be the trans vent, wouldn’t water run down the threads if it’s under for a long period?
You're right. I'm going to silicone around it anyway, but those threads are like rubbery almost. I think it's a super tight seal I had to force in there
@@RedWhiteRoxor I'd get some thing that's actually marine water & fuel rated, and not plain silicone. A lot of silicone breaks down pretty fast and peals away like a rubber band.
I'll check into it thanks
Use bellow tubes on your diffs
so how are the plans for the PTO driven jet drive coming? ;)
Who did you get your flash tune from?
Rxrperformance.parts
Crazy stuff
When you ordered your exhaust was it delivered to your house or did you have to pick it up at a Roxor dealer on a palet? Thanks in advance!
It was delivered on a pallet
Hey man where’d you get your exhaust tip at? Also I noticed that rxr has a “send it” tune that’s above the hot tune but for options it only goes up to the “hot tube” when purchasing
I just searched carbon fiber tip on Amazon. I forgot the brand sorry. And yeah just contact them they can do whatever you want lol
You should look into getting a cab for the Roxor
I'm too poor for all that jazz lol
Pssh that's just extra weight. Plus the experience of being exposed is better along with increased visibility.
it's pure fun
Great videos 👍
Thanks!
I'm in orange tx. Where are you bud?? Kudos on such a cool vid. Hopefully your land and house are ok
I live right on the border! I work in orange. Dont want to get too specific on the internet but hey neighbor!
@@RedWhiteRoxor totally understand bud!
Hey neighbors, I live in sulphur. Just got back from Beaumont today doing disaster relief work from this storm. I hear winnie got hit pretty bad as well
@@fiddlinjazz hey bud, good on ya helping out man. It's awesome how many have come to the rescue.
Man. Finding people closeby left and right! Do either of you guys plan on getting a roxor one day? Just curious
Overbuild everything you can. When the 3 banger gets tired, put a 4 cyl. VW turbo in that baby.
What 3 banger lol
Sounds fun !!👌😀😁
Wow👍
Job well done on those breather pipes. What's next?
Not sure honestly lol
@@RedWhiteRoxor after seeing the bottom of your Roxor maybe a good cleanup and some rust proofing. That should make your fun runner last longer.

I have seen plastic acordian looking chambers that differential breather lines run to and it is sealed and can expand and contract with hot and cold diff temps. It be like having a balloon on the end of the vent line it just keeps breathing the same sealed air in and out of the diff.
I see its called a creeper breather / bellow tube breather on Amazon. Pretty cool idea.
Isn't it kinda new to have so much rust underneath?
Theyre all like that, I know it doesnt make it any better but that's just how they came. Probably mostly the 2018s. I think they started adding more paint
Thats not a problem for these vehicles....You can put...Some oil...And grease in screw areas....
Water is not a challenge, ice mud is a challenge
Yes it is in feel you there my Chevy got stuck in it and my truck has a 9 inch lift on 40
@@themlggod3445 yup the only one who got out of thick ice mud was a Honda model
Because they are light
@@themlggod3445 yes but mahindra is preferable because they are simple old style and cheap. Quite stable while driving with a good amount of torque
Was that fan ever shrouded? If not, take it off and get some electric fans with thermal switches. Cause that fan is nearly useless as it sits now.
Nope it wasnt. I agree, itll be on the eventual to-do list lol
I was reading the posts and wondering if anyone was going to mention that.
I'm not sure how this diesel is set up, but I've seen a few times in the 6.2 in the military get soaked with water and that sudden cold water hitting the engine and injector pump, caused things to cool rapidly at different rates and it snapped the shaft in the injector pump.
If it was me, I'd install an electric fan if I was going to be around water like that and have a switch so I could turn it off completely when I'm in water, and just keep an eye on my temp gauge, but in water like that, you'll be just fine for cooling the engine. I'd also wire in a RED light that comes on next to the switch letting me know the fans are OFF, so I wouldn't forget. Keep up the great work.
Where did you get your roxor able&sons don’t sell them far as I know I’m from the ragley area
First turn in Scott la. But hurricane offroad sells them now in lake Charles
Sweet thanks looking to get one
You need to get rid of the mechanical fan and go with some electric ones .... seen it happen a bunch of times when those mechanical ones break the blades off , if it’s running when you hit water suddenly, can bust a radiator....
I agree with you. An electric conversion will be one of the next upgrades for sure.
Red, White, & Roxor Could possibly pick up a little hp less drag on the crank .
Yep diesel freaks did a test on the dyno and picked up 7 horsepower I believe
Yup! We are doing an E-Fan conversion this week. Ryan let us know when you are ready to get set up with an E-Fan!
👍
Nice
Well that was fast lol
Where do I get these tires for my Jeep Wrangler
Simpletire.com
What is the actual measurements with a tape measure. Actual height of those tires and what brand are those I have never seen anything like that for an actual vehicle only utvs and ATVs
I belong to a Jeep Club just recently discovered these vehicles that you guys have I am completely amazed at what you're doing with them I was actually watching of my Jeep Wrangler videos in you guys got recommended and now I'm a subscriber
This better than thar crde and Di , smaller vehicle more capability more naked and rugged vehicle
That's why your want a clutch on your fan bro think how bad that is on your engine and fan while it's submerged trying to turn also losing a ton of hp
I think electric fans will have to come soon.
@@RedWhiteRoxor with propellers..
@@RedWhiteRoxor that will be cool 👍 I love this build you've done and it's smart t to use coiled breather tubes 👍 my dad would do that when I was a kid to the wood cutting truck an old Dodge 4x4 and I always wondered why.
literally stock intake could handle that.
Literally couldn't find any deeper water to test it at the time and literally not meant to literally be taken too serious 🙃
Is this vehicle fun or what...i am from India and Mahindra doesn't sell the ROXOR in india....u lucky Americans
Bro we got more advanced version.... Roxor is based on THAR !!
It's actually better than thar
This is a Thar DI without windshield and doors😊
robbust thar
