    Lots of Wheel Lifting Action from the Pajero and some great examples of the traction control in action. You could almost do without a locker when it works like this.
    This video features Nathan driving my Pajero whilst on a 4WD Drive day with Mannell Motors. I was filming a series of stories for "4wdTV" and "Your 4x4" so I needed a driver for the day. Seems like he did a pretty good job too. Many thanks to Jimmy from Mannel Motors for a great day and to Nick Mannell for guiding Nathan through some quite difficult terrain.
    The complete story for the day with all the participants in full HD can be viewed here:

    Thanks killpigeon! My son was driving and he did a great job. The rear bumper and depart angle is the worst feature of the car, the 50mm lift does help though. However, the only damage I have on the car is all on the rear bar. It is the only part that we keep hitting. Mine is a MY05.

    That was great to see. As the owner of an NP 3.2 here in Victoria and a serious off roader I am so happy to see a good video showing off what one of these can really do. It's also great to see a P plater in an off road video with real driving skills and not just out there tearing up our tracks. That was excellent!

    wow look at that articulat... oh wait, it doesn't matter. The Paj made it up the same place all of the other trucks with locked diffs and better articulation did. Technology versus articulation was one of the points of this video. Thanks for the comment though, and thanks for watching!

      @@medveds1 crazy most drivers replace tyres straight away. I like good AT tyres but the stock ones only have issues in thick mud and side wall strength. I’ve run my stock wheels on a NX paj of road including desert crossings, beaches and tougher inland tracks 50kms on them, never a flat or needed to be recovered.

    Thanks for the quick reply. I haven't gotten around to checking if we have a limited rear diff (and it's another mystery on how I'm going to do that) but it does seem that there's no traction control. It looks like it'll be a while before we get up to this sort of off-roading, but we might as well start easy.

  • @pilotLSA
    @pilotLSA 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome video, in all the six years we've had this Pajero and we've never taken if offroad before. Great to see what the car can actually do! I have a question though, does your Paj have rear locking differentials? Ours doesn't, we've made no modifications and it's just got a centre lock. But since it's 2002 I'm not sure if it has traction control, and I'm wondering if a centre diff lock alone would be able to take the car onto tracks like these.

    @Robapaso 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    This car is good, the traction control work superb and makes me think about when people talk about that independent suspension is not good for off road because wheel travel and the tires hanging on the air, well it doesn't matter with traction control because it will apply brake to that wheel to make the other wheel push the car out, but the thing is that you may use this car once in a while for off road because independent suspension has a lot of part that may break down.

  • @PajRob

    Nice smooth driving mate, good to see the Paj out there mixing it up on some of the better tracks, truely underestimated vehicle.
    I've just done the 2" lift on mine from pedders with trak rider shocks and springs.
    Not been of road yet but i can say that the ride and handling have improved tremendously, i'll keep you posted on how they perform.

    • @OnTheDirt
      @OnTheDirt  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      G'day Reggie... We too run stock wheels! They are just 17" 265-70 series. We don't use Cooper's anymore, they're just too expensive and get very ordinary once they get to 50,000km. So we are now using Khumo tyres, which we think are much better and way more affordable.

    This is some of the best traction control for offroad use I've ever seen. I wonder how it would do in the wet tho?

  • @OnTheDirt
    @OnTheDirt  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ah, ok, understand now. You're probably right in theory. But in reality not many people go to the effort to take it out if they are towing all the time like we do. We do occassionaly scrape the towbar, but it would unlikely take the weight of the car to a point where it would damage it. The tongue has a bolt and lock bolt on it, so to get the tongue out is such a pain, we just leave it in. Thanks for watching, hope to see you in the bush one day.

I think they are ok, but I think I would go with something different if I did it again. Maybe Old Man Emu...

      @wopmf4345FxFDxdGaa20 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can get a little more than this has, but not huge amount more. Antirollbar can be removed yes.
      I doubt this vehicle has standard suspension either because that flex looks even less than standard but I might be wrong. Problem with independent suspension is that you loose drop wheel travel when the vehicle is lifted from the springs, by the same amount that the lift is unless the susp is modified otherwise.
