- We weren't planning on filming this trip because we were having too good of a time to get the main camera out of its bag, however I've strung together the videos we managed to film on the phones.
Was an epic trip and the tracks just kept getting better and better towards the end.
We drove
Commando trail,
Rocky trail,
Army trail,
Morbid trail,
Jeep track,
The steps,
Widows hill,
Carnage trail,
and more....
Hey lads, looks like some great trails. What impressed me was that among the great lines you picked, was also the willingness to just bust out the winch when it got obvious that things were a bit more than the cars were built for. I see a lot of guys who have fifty goes at an obstacle and dial numbers left right and centre trying to drive it at all costs. It breaks cars and it damages trails. Nothing wrong with a bit of good winching.
Was a really good trip, super keen to get back there. One of the goals was to find some tracks difficult enough to need winches.
Absolutely love it !!
Verry cool and difficult trails! The Lux handle them very well! I would love to have trails like this for my Sammy but in my country i found only 1:10 Scale Trails like yours for my RC Hilux to crawl ha ha!
Can’t wait to get back down that way and explore more of the area, it’s about a 5 hour drive from where I live. We typically take our 1/10th Rc crawlers too! There heaps of fun and cheaper to fix then the real deal 🤣
Banger video mate
Cheers man!! Keen to film a trip properly next time 🤘🏻
Awesome stuff man, I wonder if going with 33’s might help with a bit more power to the ground… always chasing power I guess ahahah. As always awesome video Brother 🤙
It definitely makes a difference between 33’s and 35’s
Was tempted to run the 33’s for the trip, would have been easier for the run there and back
Mate 100% definitely makes a difference
There’s a couple of options to reduce the unsprung weight of the wheel/tyre combo.
33” - 255/85R16 or 255/80R17
34-35” - 255/85R17 or 35x10.50R17
@@ianparsons8894 I like the idea of having a heavy tyre and rim. Helps keep the shiny side upright. I’ll eventually swap the motor for something that can rev past 4,000rpm 😅
Fair enough. That makes sense actually. Hadn’t really thought of it from that angle.
Insane trip!
Can’t wait to get back there and explore more 🤘🏻
That starter motor on the side of the track was ours 🥰😂
There was half an impact socket set too 😂
It told a story haha
@@HaydnKamp yeah we went back and got that on the next trip, must of only been a couple of days before 😂
Wish we had patrols in the states
Very cable 4wd to build up with an enormous amount of off the shelf bolt on parts over here in Aus 🤘🏻
@@HaydnKampI got a 91 Hilux (aka "pickup") and it's a trip seeing the differences between the U.S and Aus/S.a. trucks. Obviously the main one being the IFS and we never got any of the diesels.
Bloody oath, keen to get down that way when I’ve got my shitbox back together 👌🏻
It’ll be a proper good time!
Hey haydo, have you done any sand driving in the Lux and if so how have you found it go with reductions?
Drove it on a beach down in Coffs Harbour a few trips back. Pretty high tide so we where up in the soft stuff. It was terrible, didn’t get stuck as it didn’t dig down but it was just too soft for high range and low range was painful in 4th
Rig 👌
Yeww 🤟🥵
Was a good time 🤘🏻
Have you done any engine/power mods?
It’s got a surf manifold with a ct20 turbo hanging off it. Doesn’t help much 😅
@@HaydnKamp any future plans?
@@bdarley5 one day I’d love to 3rz swap it and later boost it
What lockers do you have?
I’m running auto Lokka’s front and rear
Do the click at all? When daily driving
@@liam6999 yeah they sure do, only the rear of course. Front isn’t spinning as the hubs aren’t locked
Wanna sell your hilux haha?
Nope haha 😅
