Possibly my favourite youtube channel. Can't believe you don't have more subs, as the quality of your videos rivals and surpasses many professional off roading videos I've seen, by people who do this for a living.
Great video Ronny and Co. and some really good technical driving. It's a real shame the government want to shut down MOA. One of the best spots in WA to test your vehicle and 4WDing skills but also to enjoy what nature has to offer. Hopefully the bureaucrats in their ivory towers come to their senses and see what a great job Mal and Bev have done at preserving the land but also opening up their station (and their hearts) for both families and the 4WD and camping communities to enjoy.
Great footage, and great music, the hallmark of all Ronnie's videos. We really need to start a 'gofundme' for you and the crew to get your vehicles over here and wheel in Colorado and Utah. Thanks for your time and hard work with the vids, they're inspirational.
Ronnie, Im a big fan and i appreciate your videos. a lot has changed over the years and i have just recently started to rewatch some of your older material. I dont know how to explain it but your older videos like this one are a lot more entertaining and have better offroad material than your newer videos. keep the videos coming but maybe review some older stuff like this video
Best channel ever, great entertainment and inspiring! Every weekend I become so envious what you guys are offroading. Here in Europe everything what promises fun is strictly forbidden. Should come with my car to australia, hopefully.
Great job on these videos Ronny! As a suggestion for a future video, I would enjoy seeing a video on your camera equipment along with some short clips showing what was shot with each camera. The drone work is fantastic! I would also enjoy a video on what kind of meals you prepare in camp and the general layout of your campsites. Thanks again for all the hard work to make this may favorite TH-cam channel!!!
Watching your videos just gives me a holiday feeling , takes me away off the daily stress , just awesome , really nice job . Keep them coming , the awesome videos , greetings from tiny Belgium .
+MCQBushcraft I agree. Really great job. I'd like to know what powered gimbal setup Ronny is using for the night shots around the campfire. You can kinda see it in the final drone shot. Also what all the overall gear is he uses besides the obvious GoPro and drone.
Great job as always. Your videos have become part of the Sunday morning procedure. Great production as always. I'm always impressed with that Jeep. Goes anywhere the big boys do. The down side is I always have to spend money after watching. After all the rear end skidding over rocks I might look at a steel rear bumper. One day I will feel I can come along and not rip the car apart :).
+James Shaw If you are talking about what is available in the US, then true. Elsewhere in the world, give me a 70 series LC any day over a Jeep. I've never had a JK, but I did have a TJ and while capable, not very comfortable to drive. Overall longevity is questionable too. Since Toyota stopped importing real Land Cruisers to the states in '97, I'm just going to maintain my Lexus LX450 (80 series), which is 3x factory locked for my overlanding needs as long as I can. Which by all accounts, is a LONG time.
+Don Leamon the jeeps are great off road...but on road I alway found them kinda crappy. And the reliability and resale value is terrible on anything chrysler made. They are certainly very impressive off road though. All my friends that go wheeling have them, but they say the same thing...terrible for a daily driver if you only drive on paved roads for daily use.
+James Shaw If we only consider capability and fun, yes it is true. However in real world, we need to consider what we should bring with us to the long trips, how likely it is to break down and leave me alone in the middle of nowhere where i would have to walk days to get to civilazation, and how long would it survive on the tracks like these (200K, 400 k?). I think those are reasons that Jeep wranglers are not as famous as Toyota Land Cruisers (specially 70 and 80 series) and Nissan Patrols. Some would even argue cruisers are more capable though.
Hey Ronny, (sorry I spelled your name wrong in my last comment). Really enjoyed this pair of videos. It's good to see your touring video getting out through their paces. I'm very impressed with how they handle the obstacles. Pretty amazing!
Love the videos and the awesome footage of your trips Ronny, moving back home to WA from Darwin NT in a couple weeks, look forward to doing all these kind of tracks down there and might catch ya somewhere along the trail! Cheers!!
+Tiago Albino I thought the same for the longest time until I saw what their house spiders look like. NO THANK YOU. It seems like almost every creature there can and wants to kill you lol. Beautiful place though, I would love to visit. Bu the heat is too much for me to live there.
+Joe Chitussi Australia its my dream country, I now that almost every animal there can kill you :p I could chose a country to live it would be New Zealand or Australia no other place!!
Very nice adventure!, I hope you guys find the way to come over to Queensland and do something like this. As an 4wd enthusiast (beginner) I appreciate the tips and advice. Very good job... All the best!!
Excellent work (again). Love the drone and time lapse shots. What a trip. Roaming that many miles on an intermediate and beautiful trail is unheard of in the US. We will have to live through you folks I guess. Would love to see a rear locker in that JK. Are all these kilometers of open land federally regulated? Private? Just incredible. Thanks for sharing.
Hope you liked the "Chuck Norris" track and "Playschool" me and Dan made them 😉 like your videos too all the cinematography is really very good. Just got to work on your narrative bit, just getting more confident ☺
First I must admit that I'm a photographer, not a wordsmith. The imaging is beyond brilliant; yet I know of no other word. With lots of respect and admiration of Andrew St.Pierre White, he might be chewing vegemite in his nightmares. Like Andrew, your video shows an enjoyable combination of technical trail driving, scenery, and social engagement. I enjoyed the video immensely. Throughout the video I heard the familiar grinding and chatter of brakes. Do you have any tips that an average off roader can use to clean, lube, or maintain those stoppy things? P.S. Although I'd gladly welcome any of you to join me in the outback of Canada, Wayne seems to have the hat and backie to get firewood on those cool nights. Cheers Ronny.
+Mike Duckworth LOL RE Mr. St.Pierre White. He is really trying to get a big following on YT, but seems to lack traction somehow IMHO. Met him at the Overland Expo in Flagstaff once. Seemed like a cool dude and I do like his videos. As to the brake squeal, that is just what they do under slow, high load stopping. Nothing wrong with them.
I'm quite familiar with the normal brake noise. But I was wondering if Ronny did extra maintenance to brakes after excursions. I love Andrews expedition videos and stories. I'm a dedicated subscriber to 4XOverland. I hope he does well for himself and produces many more videos.
You guys ever go off roading with anyone who uses an expedition trailer? I thought about making one out of a M105 military trailer but don't know if they would be too heavy.
i would never be brave enough to cross that water @16:30 without seeing under it :S how were you sure that its not soo deep? or soo muddy to trap your car?
Hi Ronny great camera work, especiallly the aerial views. I noticed that all of your rigs are diesel powered with the exception of your father's Jeep. I have not seen any of those vehicles with an oil bypass filter. They are commonly used on diesel powered heavy equipment, class 8 trucks, and on maritime diesel engines. They have been proven to greatly reduce engine wear by the reduction of soot and other small particles in the motor oil. Am I just not seeing them?
We do run them but they are out of view, I have a catch can I'm my diesel motor which is an aftermarket addition. Also most of serious outback travelers run a second diesel filter to reduce the risk of damage from poor/bad fuel.
You may or may not have addressed this in your videos, but I qas curious to know the weight of your 79 series landcruisers dry and with gear. I would also be interested in which winches and lbs on each vehicle that you use. Thanks for putting out such great videos.
I'm sure this has been asked/covered in the past, but what do you guys carry in the way of spare parts in these long treks? you can't exactly find an auto parts store out in the bush
great video dude. what video editing software do you use to edit them? I like the filter that you use at the beginning for each driver to say who it is with the 4x4 in a sketch like graphic
Hey there guys. ive watched about every video yall have and i now am trying to find a way to get a 79 series in the U.S. but i have a couple questions and this video is the prime reason for my questions; I know yall air down your tires but i havent seen any beadlockers on any tires on any of the utes you drive, is there a reason? and ive noticed all your utes are leaf spring have you ever thought of putting a 3 or 4 link suspension under any of your utes? thank you and please keep up the videos they make me want to move to AU. -Robert
when ever people tell me to justify all the lights I have on my truck (which is very little in comparison: 2 rigid dually floods and 2 jetco 100watt halogen spot lights in the front and 2 tractor lights for the rear) I just tell them that "these lights have saved thousands of dollars, because i can see the moose or deer"
+kent monical he camps very light I do too but my back seats are full of camera gear. Wayne uses the grey boxes in the back for storage and the camp is already setup so most of his stuff is out of the tray.
hey Ronny huge fan here from the states. have Ann 88 4runner and was thinking of getting a lift installed but can't decide on a suspension lift or body lift. what's the difference ? and what do you think would be more bang for the buck?
Suspension lift is more useful and will give you lift and wheel travel. Body lift is more for when additional clearance is needed BUT it won't lift the chassis only the vehicle body. Most vehicles with a 2inch body lift will require extensions of various components i.e. Steering arm, brake line,s radiator brakes, barwork adjustment brackets and the list goes on.... Benefits are more clearance to the body (door sil) and perhaps clearance for bigger Tyres.
Possibly my favourite youtube channel. Can't believe you don't have more subs, as the quality of your videos rivals and surpasses many professional off roading videos I've seen, by people who do this for a living.
+Dwealdric thanks for the feedback mate, I guess time will tell...
love the aerial shots

Best off road adventures on TH-cam!
That was a great vid... love the scenery! Just a little different than Northern Ontario! As another poster commented, thanks for the hard work.
Fantastic drone shots on this installment!
Best channel ever, great entertainment and inspiring! Every weekend I become so envious what you guys are offroading. Here in Europe everything what promises fun is strictly forbidden. Should come with my car to australia, hopefully.
Brilliant videos
Those v8 cruisers sound sick !!
Brilliant mate! The scenery, driving, camera work... Love it. Keep up the good work.

Unreal video Ronny. Fav part was the drone footage and nighttime shots before the outtakes. Murchison looks great
Awesome vid.. restored my faith in the 3.0 patrols.
Watching your videos just gives me a holiday feeling , takes me away off the daily stress , just awesome , really nice job .
Keep them coming , the awesome videos , greetings from tiny Belgium .
Love watching your videos. Makes me want to get out and 4x4 more often! Thanks for putting in the hard work for us!
Great video as always Ronny!
Dolly shot with time lapse... awesome!!!
Great videos, really enjoy watching them. I like your dads Jeep & watching the traction control do its job. Looks quite effective out of the box.
Love the footage, great work Ronny & crew !!
Absolutely outstanding footage. Such a great journey and great tutorials for getting the most out of my jeep. Keep it up -superb channel.
Great videos and keep up the great job!
Great Videos, please keep up the good work.
Outstanding videography, really enjoyed the video and great channel.
Thanks for all your hard work.

Hi Ronny
Great video's and spectacular scenery in the west ,on the bucket
great video, beautiful scenery and awesome four wheel driving.
Great video, thanks Ronny, always entertaining, keep up the good work!
Great job as always. Your videos have become part of the Sunday morning procedure. Great production as always.
I'm always impressed with that Jeep. Goes anywhere the big boys do.

Love the video's and the patrols. Makes me want to take mine from Canada and tour down under. Keep up the awesome work!
once again Ronny, top work vid and four wheeling, cheers Rolly
Great Video! Next Modified series about one of those patrols would be great.
Really good video thanks.
awesome videos looks like you guys had fun 😊
That's some mad nighttime drone footage!
+Intents Offroad thanks Alex, yeah was pretty intents mate :D
Beautiful landscape and impressive filmed. Nice when you explain offroad techniques. More of that, please! Bloody good video!
+Jan Holst thanks mate glad you like it
Just an awesome video guys!
Very envious of your adventures and grateful for your sharing them with us.
Thank you!
Canada
+sickjohnson thanks buddy

Love the videos and the awesome footage of your trips Ronny, moving back home to WA from Darwin NT in a couple weeks, look forward to doing all these kind of tracks down there and might catch ya somewhere along the trail! Cheers!!
Amazing! great work guys.
Great video Ronny!
i love your country, it's beautiful. I would love to live there!!
+Tiago Albino I thought the same for the longest time until I saw what their house spiders look like. NO THANK YOU. It seems like almost every creature there can and wants to kill you lol. Beautiful place though, I would love to visit. Bu the heat is too much for me to live there.
+Joe Chitussi Australia its my dream country, I now that almost every animal there can kill you :p I could chose a country to live it would be New Zealand or Australia no other place!!
Great video and an awesome place to be
Very nice adventure!, I hope you guys find the way to come over to Queensland and do something like this. As an 4wd enthusiast (beginner) I appreciate the tips and advice. Very good job... All the best!!
Man using a drone for your video is crazy awesome keep up the good work👍👍👍👍👍
Love these videos...keep them coming😉
I have been patiently waiting for this.
same here!.
I have been impatiently waiting for this. It is the highlight of my Sundays
+Shane Faust I impatiently wait for every one of these as well!
Retired AF CE
Michael Littlewood yes?
hi Ronny
i really enjoy your videos..... awesome!!
+jesus castro thanks mate
great video, love to see some patrols
thanks for those great Videos!
I'm a bit late but this vid really deserved a like 👍🏼 great job
I love this Chaneel
Awesome video, second time I've watched it. Hoping to go next year, and it's dog friendly!
Excellent work (again). Love the drone and time lapse shots. What a trip. Roaming that many miles on an intermediate and beautiful trail is unheard of in the US. We will have to live through you folks I guess. Would love to see a rear locker in that JK.
Are all these kilometers of open land federally regulated? Private? Just incredible. Thanks for sharing.
+Tierhog Australia is a big open country and we do have areas where there is no access to vehicles but loads more that do allow.
Thanks for this great video. could you make a video to explain why is it needed to lower the diff after lifting the car?
Hope you liked the "Chuck Norris" track and "Playschool" me and Dan made them 😉
like your videos too
all the cinematography is really very good.
Just got to work on your narrative bit, just getting more confident ☺
Can you possibly do an episode of modified with Wayne's landcruiser
I can attest to just how steep that drop on chuck norris is!
love the vids mate

Nice work as usual Ronny! Have you considered doing a short video about the gear you use for filming? A bit of a behind the scenes type deal?
+Tosh Polmear we had Alex from +intents Offroad with us on the latest trip and he was taking some behind the scenes of us. stay tuned for that one.
Awesome as always! Is there a video of your video equipment? Those campfire shots are fantastic!
+Adventures with Jr Alex from +Intents Offroad will be doing a behind the sense video with our next Trip video, that should cover some of that stuff
all the trucks sound like big ships creaking and groaning at sea.
filming has improved alot! love the footage of wild animals and the drone. what cameras and drone do you use?
You guys ever go off roading with anyone who uses an expedition trailer? I thought about making one out of a M105 military trailer but don't know if they would be too heavy.
i would never be brave enough to cross that water @16:30 without seeing under it :S how were you sure that its not soo deep? or soo muddy to trap your car?
Hey Ronny awesome video you got there, i want to ask what is the setting you did for your night time laps (26.23).
thanx
Hi Ronny great camera work, especiallly the aerial views. I noticed that all of your rigs are diesel powered with the exception of your father's Jeep.

We do run them but they are out of view, I have a catch can I'm my diesel motor which is an aftermarket addition. Also most of serious outback travelers run a second diesel filter to reduce the risk of damage from poor/bad fuel.
you get a thumbs up before i even watch it
You may or may not have addressed this in your videos, but I qas curious to know the weight of your 79 series landcruisers dry and with gear. I would also be interested in which winches and lbs on each vehicle that you use. Thanks for putting out such great videos.
I'm sure this has been asked/covered in the past, but what do you guys carry in the way of spare parts in these long treks? you can't exactly find an auto parts store out in the bush
+Brandon Richter will see what we can do about a video for that, great suggestion and question.
what suspension setup is the blue gu running? that flex is unreal either of the patrols have lockers?
+Luke Guerin think its a 5-6 inch lift
Thanks for that Ronny Dahl either of them have lockers?
great video dude.
what video editing software do you use to edit them? I like the filter that you use at the beginning for each driver to say who it is with the 4x4 in a sketch like graphic
+Joe Chitussi thanks mate, I use Premier Pro CC
Hey Ronny, that truck looked a little light on gear for the Outback. Were you carrying gear for him? Great videos, keep it up.
Hey there guys. ive watched about every video yall have and i now am trying to find a way to get a 79 series in the U.S. but i have a couple questions and this video is the prime reason for my questions; I know yall air down your tires but i havent seen any beadlockers on any tires on any of the utes you drive, is there a reason? and ive noticed all your utes are leaf spring have you ever thought of putting a 3 or 4 link suspension under any of your utes? thank you and please keep up the videos they make me want to move to AU. -Robert
Is there any reason why Torben has taken the twin spares off the back of the canopy ?
+Ray Tong he took them off to reduce weight at the rear as we were expecting tough tracks
hey what do you think , what wheel size have the blue nissan patrol?
What years that single cab cruiser ute
Hey Ronny I know your probably not going to see this but what tyres do you have on your car?
Who did Toben's Canopy?
when ever people tell me to justify all the lights I have on my truck (which is very little in comparison: 2 rigid dually floods and 2 jetco 100watt halogen spot lights in the front and 2 tractor lights for the rear) I just tell them that "these lights have saved thousands of dollars, because i can see the moose or deer"
Ronnie, I know this is a dated video, but why the empty tray on Wayne and Sarah's Truck?
I know there must be a reason for it on the trip.
+kent monical he camps very light I do too but my back seats are full of camera gear. Wayne uses the grey boxes in the back for storage and the camp is already setup so most of his stuff is out of the tray.
Ok, That explains it. Thank you
Where do you get your time-lapse music from?
TH-cam music I think
Really need a better wind sock for the microphones. Otherwise great stuff.
hey Ronny huge fan here from the states. have Ann 88 4runner and was thinking of getting a lift installed but can't decide on a suspension lift or body lift. what's the difference ? and what do you think would be more bang for the buck?

Benefits are more clearance to the body (door sil) and perhaps clearance for bigger Tyres.
In short suspension lift always before body lift.
grandpa drives them all yaaawwwwnnnnnn
+rob armstrong If you ever actually go off roading it won't take you long to realize how stupid of a comment this is.
