- Hungry Valley aka Gorman is a great place to get to know your vehicle. We were invited by the Crossoverlanding Group from @JonDZ_Adventuring to play around at the 4x4 Practice area. In this video we feature 4 of the obstacles. There are just too many features in Gorman to fit in a single video. Appreciate ya for coming along for the ride.

I like your style, respecting every vehicle. Nice way of showing the trail / place and different vehicles. Keep it up..
This channel is a strange place where AWDs and Rock Crawlers adventure together. Glad to have you part of the Fam!
No point in being hardcore. It ends up being a vanity contest. Nuh thanks.
yeah... what he said but more farts!
@@jebussbf y'all people are sick. (& Hillarious!!). Had me laughing on this one!
That F150 @ 13:52 went up buttery smooth.
Extreme off-road trail with amazing view .its a great place to get a way do a little adveuture cool video
Thank you! I love coming out to Hungry Valley to hit some features. Gets me prepared when we actually go exploring.
Good video capturing the moment Alan! Editing was so nice 😃. I’m lagging quite bad with releasing the video, but I’ll get it done eventually. Perhaps in 2 videos from now? 2 weeks?
All good! Lol I'm behind a few trip videos myself. Back to the editing room. ☕ Could use me some strong strong strong viet coffee.
2 weeks eh?
Now you can take it to the Mojave road :)
Lol this was before we brought it into the shop. LC is back in the shop for SAS!
@@BorderlineExplorer how long until its done
@@VeryCoolJeep I wish I knew. I'd be happy if they were quicker but rather have precision for suspension geometry on this axle swap. Don't feel like dying, y'know? 😆
@@BorderlineExplorer sucks to have to wait for the vehicle:( i feel that!
@@VeryCoolJeep will still make it to Mojave though. Woo! Looking forward to it.
Awesome video!!! Geeking out a little my Jeep made it in your video for a couple of seconds.
Aw man! I wanted to include everyone but there were just so many vehicles. Jose, let's go get more footage of the Jeep.
@@BorderlineExplorer a lot of vehicles but it was an awesome event
I just love this place and I bring all my friends new to 4x4 here!
How do your new off-road friends like the place? Pretty good testing grounds!
I have been waiting for this video!! 🙌 Great Job on explaining Alan! Hahaha JohnDz with his awning🤣🤣🤣. I'm looking forward to Pronghorn video.
Man I kinda miss this. Cruiser still in the shop. I'm actually at the shop right now replying to comments!!
Oh dang! I've gotta go try this place!
Playtime!
9:13 haha! I’m looking forward to seeing the results of your LC SAS!
Me too! Terrifying with all the front end suspension gone. No going back now!
Got a great variety of the vehicles. Only gone there once can't wait to go back.
Nice info and video, Alan! Practicing with friends and relatively near home before heading out is key in knowing your rig, your capabilities, limitations and potential modifications if needed! Thats the safest, efficient and effective way to prep for for overlanding explorations, adventures and destinations! 👌🏼🤙🏼
We definitely came across obstacles that were Hungry Valley-like
enjoy and keep safe
Thanks Percy. Enjoying is 100% of the time. Gotta keep ourselves reminded we need to drive these vehicles home too!
just added an Adarac Pro to my gladiator rubi. I have a hard trifold bed cover and been looking for what would fit for a rtt.
Great video. Looks like a cool place to wheel! Your editing is really good. Love the awning on the Honda! 🤭🤣
Way too funny! I turn my head and he's got it out again! Free standing awnings are awesome 😎 until they catch wind and blow your vehicle over down the hill. Hahahah what a great time out at Hungry Valley. Thanks for the kind words.
Would love to go out to Colorado when opportunity arises. Hit some Moab along the way too! Just checked out the channel, Geoff! Awesome stuff!!
@@BorderlineExplorer that cracked me up! Hahahahah
@@BorderlineExplorer yea you should! We are thinking about making a Rubicon trip this year (haven’t done it yet!) but not 💯 sure yet. If you’re interested in wheeling here let me know and we can hit a trail if you’re interested! Keep up the great videos!
@@Colorado4x4 Right on! Rubicon sounds way difficult for my skill set. A bit hesitant 😆
Very cool
😆 you always checking out the vids at night. Thanks for supporting the channel!
My touareg. I miss it.
You can always come back on TH-cam to see it! Did you sell it?
@@BorderlineExplorer yeah i sold it a couple of months ago. I just have too many cars
@@mallkrawlerz620 you can always build up another one!
Actually, locking the center diff or engaging 4wd part time (mechanically locking the front and rear driveshafts together) creates a dynamic torque bias not 50:50. 50:50 means even, same, what one has the other gets... it can be 0:0, 5:5, 1000:1000. An open differential is 50:50 meaning that one wheel requires the other to have resistance for it to generate torque... When you lift a wheel, that wheel no longer has resistance (without the brakes intervening) and thus the other wheel gets an equal amount of torque (0). With a locker, one wheel gets 0 torque while the other (grounded wheel) generates as much torque as the ground can resist or the drivetrain can develop (whatever is lower), thus a locker is a dynamic torque split.
.
Power is torque and RPM combined. You can have wheelspin (RPM) without torque = no HP and stalled wheel (0RPM) with all the torque in the world = no power. So neither an open diff nor a locker distribute power evenly, as an open diff has varied rpm with equal torque and a locker has equal rpm with varied torque.
.
I made a video to demonstrate this. Essentially I have a torque driver set to one wheel unlocked then locked, when unlocked you can see that as I increase the resistance on the opposite wheel the torque driver indicates more torque, but when locked it doesn't require resistance from the other wheel and all the torque flows through that torque driver.
.
Think of a torque wrench and how you can wave it around and it won't click, but hook it to something that can provide the resistance then it will click. Torque can't just be developed, it needs resistance. Lockers will always distribute as much torque as each wheel locked together can support before any wheel will lose grip. An open diff is like two glasses of water with a straw connecting them at the bottom. One requires the resistance of the other to build its water level.

Wow, I didn't know such a place exist. A quick look on google map, I see there are many campgrounds there. Where is this course located? I would like to go there and practice driving my GX. TIA
Plenty of campsites, though not sure if that's a good or bad thing. Recent years the crowds play music at night, do donuts near camp, etc. Definitely a place to get out and hit trails/practice but not a place for getting away into nature. Course is very easy to find! As for exact location I'm afraid I don't have coordinates on hand but it is not a far drive from either entrances. Upon entry, you'll be a given a map in case you get lost. GX rock man! Have fun out there!!
Here we go, found some coordinates!

@@BorderlineExplorer So the park map will show where this practice area is? I would like to try all 4 of the area you highlighted in this video, especially the "bumpy way". I'll keep searching on google map to see if I can spot this man-made course.
@@BorderlineExplorer Awesome! thanks
@@hccvad591 Yup, it will be marked on the map upon entry. Or you can throw those coordinates into google maps and it'll lead you right in.
Did that on a one leger econoline 150 😅
Wise guy
You know it 🤣
how much is parking? and is there overnight camping?
How did that sas go on the 100?
When are you guys going to go again in 2024?
Why didn't you video the Jeeps
Those open diffs on 4hi are def not my favorite features of my rubicon.
Well at least it has BLD(Brake Limited Differential) to transfer power to the side on the ground helping it to move forward. So, not completely open diff.
@@solarinsocal6025 the bld is slowwwwww to react that’s the problem. It takes forever to kick in. So I’m a situation where you’re on a high grade you are obligated to use lockers. And that’s more often than not. But of course it can be an unstoppable beast with the lockers on. Wish lsd and lockers all together was a thing. Haha
BLD is definitely super slow to react. Toyota's ATRAC does way better unfortunately. Though like you said, I can just turn on both of my lockers. Lol
Just get a Jeep
Blah blah blah blah blah leave the sports for the professionals go home and make some charming and one town soup,. Me love you long time
