The world needs more Reuben's to do the heavy lifting when it comes to testing the limits, and then still laughs when it breaks.. I bet with that rear axle locked and the left CV broke, clearly it shoved the rest of the torque over to the right side and broke that stub shaft. better take the diff center apart while its out and make sure you didn't bend the locker drive pins as well.
That’s a substantial amount of damage for such an innocuous little hill climb. It really goes to show how much forces go through the drivetrain 🤪 big power,weight and large rubber has its downsides sometimes. Thanks for the honest videos DMW team.
Been waiting to see this damage report. Great content, love seeing the "behind the scenes" stuff that goes into keeping these rigs taking the abuse thrown at them!
4WD24/7 has bought about a few extra content providers and l have bloody subscribed to all of them. There goes my spare time lol. Well done Reuben good stuff mate.
Loved the episode Reuben! Always a joy to watch, nothing ever seems to wipe the smile off your face and the genuine laughs 😁 The world needs more people like you. Jumped in the draw, so I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed until January 😁🤞
G'day Ruben, I'm glad that it wasn't a major I need a 3rd Mortgage Rubinator repair bill, but then again Nissan built bloody tough trucks from stock anyway. When do you think you will have the big old rig back on the tracks mate? I think it will take longer to clean & detail than it will to do the mechanicals, LOL.
i remember my uncle had to improvise in a bump stop but it was on a late 1950's voxhaul sedan, you had to push up windows, he broke a rear spring so he took an old 3 bushel sack bag and rolled it up and with a bit of plain fence wire strapped to the axel housing and sit the lightest child on the seat above to complete the trip
I had a 1992 Infiniti G20-Nissan-Premiera back in the day with a SR20DET. I twisted 3 left hand axle shafts on launches. I could not find performance shafts.
I've never had any issues with a IFS (granted I'm not quite as enthusiastic as Ruben) but a IRS... Yea I'd have some serious questions of strength. I'll stick with a solid rear axle especially for a rig that big.
@@dirtymuddyweekends out of curiosity what was the go with the nasty panel damage when ya towed the boat in the 247 episode? That looked like it would have been expensive!!!!
I don't know if it would be possible or not but I would love to see that jewel straight axled one day lol. I believe it would be able to handle the power more an the hard tracks u love. Awesome video Ruben keep it up brother
When it’s costing as much as this will you would have to laugh at the burning dollars . But great to see Rubin take it on the chin . As he said you drive it hard it’s going to break .
This must have been a different trip to the 4wd action one where you did body damage to the rear driver side by memory or you've just gotten it back from the panal beaters
3rd gear ratio 2.02 to 1 so halve 1200nm = 600nm at the wheels in 1:1 ratio. the crawl ratio of a y62 with standard gears is 44:1 you said you had lower gears but stated a meaningless number instead of the actual ratio so i can't calculate for that. but with stock ratios low range 1st gear crawl ratio would be 44:1 so 44 x 600 = 26,400nm at the wheels since the 600nm was already at the wheels there won't be any significant extra parasitic loss but may be some. the lower diff ratios will multiply torque even more so that number is probably fairly close. so your estimate was off by about 24,000nm and as you can see by the number this is why you always have to limit your revs in low low and feed power in gradually because if the tyres don't spin the torque will break way bigger parts than you could ever fit in a 4wd that size.
@@dirtymuddyweekends already done so, ole Reuben's a unit ya never know what he's gonna do and that's just from watching on 4wd247, can only imagine what he do on his own channel!! carnage, everywhere! 🤣🤣 .... also i can't afford this 4x4 stuff but i enjoy watching those that can (a man can dream after all)
The beginning of this video was like working on my house. Oh, look at that, my faucet is leaking...I'll replace that. dang, when I was removing the handle, I skuffed the finish, need a new faucet now. Oh, no, I twisted the nut off the faucet. Need a new faucet. Oh, when I turned off the water at the wall the valve went bad. I now need to replace that...but do to that I need to open the wall. Ugh, now I have to... Cars and homes are like onions, you never know what will happen when you peel back a layer. Not nearly as delightful as eating a parfait.
Wonder if you had the steering wrack made out of 304 grade stainless if it would do that again same as sharft in diff was stainless to let the cv be the weak point?
I know it’s modified etc, but to just shit itself from front to back like that, kind of makes me happy I didn’t end up buying one. First mod would have been. A blower lol
Reuben talking = "If you do a big trip like that " -- what should have followed mate was - - - tidy up the vehicle, service etc wash, polish, clean and valet -- Then advertise her for sale -- One lady driver, full service history, never been off -road low mileage etc, etc -- and sell it as fast as possible ! ! ! 😜😜😜
Mr Magoo you’ve done it again Houston we have a problem all of the above😂😂😂😂😂 Ruben and his big right foot no mechanical sympathy apparently it like me at times
Never seen a bloke smile & laugh so much as he breaks more & more stuff haha love it Reuben ! 😂
if you were as rich as he, is you could afford to laugh as well.
@@ThePsydafex its all bullshit
He can laugh about it cause he knows he can afford to fix it…
I'd be laughing to if nothing was coming out of my pocket
When your fleecing everyone for cut and shuts , canopies and dodging tax with infinite toys for deductions you’d be laughing too
Reuben is such a positive guy. He makes everyone feel comfortable even in tough situations
I would be too if I have plenty of money to throw away at to replace parts hahaha
I still reckon you should sell a "DONT DO A REUBEN" T-shirt. Great explanation of damage
I'll let our designer know!
@@dirtymuddyweekends I reckon a shirt that say's ' Give it a Rueben Rev'
@@peterhutchings753 We might need to start paying for these ideas
The amount of torque that would have gone through to sheer of that shaft, insane!
Love the content Ruben, can't wait to see what you get up to next.
AndreR. That's what you get from putting to much hpower through a standard drive train
Was expected.... only when was unknown

Thanks Reuben for showing us what alot of other 4wd adventurers don't show, what broke and a great attitude. A great video!

One thing no matter where he is Ruben always has a smile on the dial
Epic episode mate! Detailed & to the point! The patrol has been through allot I’d give it credit!
And that’s coming from a land cruiser guy !
What an episode a good breakdown on the patrol. Its nice to see damage reports ( the result of hard 4wding ) being honest.
Been waiting to see this damage report. Great content, love seeing the "behind the scenes" stuff that goes into keeping these rigs taking the abuse thrown at them!
Loving these 4wd/247 follow up videos, kind of like a peek behind the curtain.
We appreciate you taking us through it all. And thank you for your honesty, and the laughs.. LOVE THE Y62..
Reuben has the best attitude! And holy cow, I've never seen anything happening like that before
Thanks @shirolee. :)

So glad to see that the airbag a gave you got you out of trouble. Rgds Mick.
I was having a bad day till I heard Reuben laugh! Things seem a whole lot better in the world!!
Good learning here,,,,, and l always admire the fantastic sense of humor that Nissan owners normally have to adopt!
Nice one Reuben! Stoked to see your channel and business grow mate. Your content just gets better and better 👍 Cheers, from your old rig18 comrade.
Good when you’ve got the cash to piss away.
Really great teardown video and all smiles.
Great to see guys
Kudos - great looking vehicle. Impressed the standard drivetrain lasted so long with all the extra load and stress.
Love your build. Love how your always so positive. Think its time to upgrade to RCV's though. That's the route I would go with a monster like that
What a great episode , lot's of insight. Cheers!
As others have said, thanks for showing us what all went wrong. But I've gotta say - I've never appreciated the solid axles on my Rubicon more!
G'day Ruben, I'm glad that it wasn't a major I need a 3rd Mortgage Rubinator repair bill, but then again Nissan built bloody tough trucks from stock anyway.
When do you think you will have the big old rig back on the tracks mate? I think it will take longer to clean & detail than it will to do the mechanicals, LOL.

Massive great teardown review ,well done chaps.
I had a 1992 Infiniti G20-Nissan-Premiera back in the day with a SR20DET. I twisted 3 left hand axle shafts on launches. I could not find performance shafts.
I love the happy go lucky attitude. I guess when you do all the wheeling you gotta expect some damage at some point
it really did fair pretty good considering what you tried to get it to do
My old told me everytime I broke something the cause was the nut between the steering wheel and seat
Wheelin the wrecker Ruban hurricane lol good job breaking the y62 mate
Great video lots of good information. With supercharger instant power that’s for sure but is it possible to control throttle response?
Reuben what happens with your warranty? Also your view of the durability of the Y62 vs your 200 and 79.
I've never had any issues with a IFS (granted I'm not quite as enthusiastic as Ruben) but a IRS... Yea I'd have some serious questions of strength. I'll stick with a solid rear axle especially for a rig that big.
Honestly the same strength as a solid axel as you not turning the cv left or right
Can't wait to see how much that trip cost in damage crazy
scott from oz. won't cost him anything. It's all sponsored
Not looking forward to the bill 😂
@@dirtymuddyweekends out of curiosity what was the go with the nasty panel damage when ya towed the boat in the 247 episode? That looked like it would have been expensive!!!!
@@Swwa89 been wondering the same
Every part I’ve broken, as opposed to worn out after long and hard kms, has been aftermarket, and CV’s are no exception.
The Ol' Rueben Rev strikes again
I don't know if it would be possible or not but I would love to see that jewel straight axled one day lol. I believe it would be able to handle the power more an the hard tracks u love. Awesome video Ruben keep it up brother
Thank you for posting this!
I think Ruben needs to make some shirts saying. "It's not rooted. It's Ruben rooted"
Awesome episode mate!!
I wonder how long until someone solid axle swaps one of these rigs
You should mount that as a trophy as a reminder
New Merch T-shirt right there brother.
GIVE IT A REUBEN REV in text with a pic of a few broken part's lmao. ;-)
all good Reuben, at first i thought you did more damage than you have
Wow. The mechanic is a really tall and big guy.
Cleetus McFarland has made the perfect shirt for ya mate "Right foot breaks shit" 😂
Hey Rubin, when I win I’ll bring Gloria around from time to time. 😂😂
I want to see the fix on that back passenger door that he killed
Bigger pressure on everything with those tyre sizes.
thank you for sharing the detailed video as was good to watching
Definitely worth a thumbs up 👍
Can’t believe how tough the y62 is to taken all that beating and only break what it has
Tough? Are you for real? He didn’t even push it all that hard.
You’ve got to have deep pockets to run 37’s with the cool kids “ 🤠
Reuben a bloke like you should be building up a vw touareg pre 2010 v6 tdi casa
Hello from Canada, really enjoying your content! Is your contest just for Australia?
Reuben is "The Situation" that makes parts break lol
Lol, I've broken or seen all those bits broken before, but not all at once, well done roobs, noice.
When it’s costing as much as this will you would have to laugh at the burning dollars . But great to see Rubin take it on the chin . As he said you drive it hard it’s going to break .
The money involved in this! Does Reuben still own the other two landcruisers?
I like the way you say, and that's before even beer and food. Beer comes first lol.
This must have been a different trip to the 4wd action one where you did body damage to the rear driver side by memory or you've just gotten it back from the panal beaters
Thanks Rueben, I will stick with my Mitsubishi. Maybe we call Reuben Wanless.Take super glue for running repairs.
Good call!

Should’ve brought Grahame on for a cameo. U wouldn’t have looked that short😂
never even knew ole Reuben had a youtube .... do now🤣
Subscribe for more! We've got Reuben doing all sorts of things now 😅

Love this 62! If I win the comp and dont want either Yota or the cash can I opt for the 62?
Ok what did the full bill come to. On repairs be interesting to the average job blow what he would be up for .

Check your chassis in that cape video where you came out the dry creek bed I seen your head board had a heap of movement
Looking forward to the next video....
Sounds like it might be time to work with a driveshaft shop and get some billet pieces made up. I'm sure you're not the only one with this problem
Good grief, look at that wheel base. Do you even feel speed bumps?
Reuben has to have all the ponies because you can only break so much with the current power.
This bloke broke a lot of stuff and still amaze me how he is still positive
Maybe because money is not an issue?
You will have to do a y62 solid axle swap Ruben to take all that power
Hi Reuben with the dmw give away can we enter from New Zealand? Thanks
mate too fix a nissan just park it in the paddock for few months then start it everything fine worked well with trx bluebird lol
The chuck in the diff doesn't always come out that easy unless ya feel like taking Both sides off haha
bloke gives whistlindiesel a run for his money
Wonder if you had the steering wrack made out of 304 grade stainless if it would do that again same as sharft in diff was stainless to let the cv be the weak point?
One might say that diff is properly shafted.
Get some axles from RCV and be done. Go up in rim diameter and reduce the rotating mass little too.
too much fuzz on the magnet bro lol
Better check that cabin filter while you are at it.
Ruben your new name should RAG(rough as guts) , that thing would of had huge copious amounts of torque go though that drive line . 😲
Love ya work. Ok cry when I have to take my car in for a service
Rubin when you was in the states did you run into Kevin hart? If so who’s taller?
Nice video!
I know it’s modified etc, but to just shit itself from front to back like that, kind of makes me happy I didn’t end up buying one. First mod would have been. A blower lol
So when are you going to solid axle swap the big rig?
is the give away just for Australians ?

I want to see the video we're he does the damage
He will have a new truck by the time its fixed
what did craig leave loose? i reckon its a few of the nuts in Reubens head!
Poor guy is laughing through his pain.
