Running out of fuel, food getting low…but no mention on beer supplies, clearly the team was well stocked with the correct commodity!!!
Hey I'm Corey, thanks for the shoutout Graham. Awesome running into you guys back in the desert
What time was this in the episode?
45 mins ish
Hey mate! What date did yhis take place! Was this back in august or something?
@@jordynedwards5612 early June. Before the Finke race
No I’m Corey…
As an American viewer I love these long trips across Areas of Australia I will probably never get a chance to visit. Love it
Hopefully you do get the chance to mate, you'll love it
Man that looks so fun someday hopefully I gotta do some cool as shit like that question how much beer do you bring on a trip like that it's gotta be more than the fuel LOL😂
Man if you ever come to Australia to do it, I'll do it with ya
I agree. We have some of the best wheeling in the world where technical difficulty is concerned, but we don’t have the long distance “tracks” like the Aussies. Hope I can get there someday, but that’s a long, expensive jaunt for po folks.
Lads, get down here! Hire a 70 series and go fucking anywhere! Best time of your life. Think desert, lots of water and fuel, plb/epirb, never leave the vehicle, you’ll be a shitload safer than south Chicago or Iraq!!
I just found this channel last night. I never knew I could watch TH-cam for 24 hours straight
isn't awesome...this show is just unreal.. and the guys are so cool and funny... and they can drive!
This is the best found footage film ever made
The forethought by the creators to provide audio commentary before their untimely demise was astonishing
Ha ha 😂
Honestly - I can’t remember the last time a show/series/channel that has me “itching” for each and every new episode .
Hopefully one day we cross paths in the bush somewhere in the near future and hopefully get to shake the hands of some Aussie legends ! 🤝🏻
Cheers mate, appreciate the support!
As a real remote living Australian, I will have some word's for these guy's, mostly love their content, but I live there sometimes and it's just BS and destructive to our tracks for views.
If I come across them I'll have a beer with them and let them know how the local guy's feel about their activities.
@@seancraven2361 .. interesting way to look at it all.
Let’s not forget the other side of what these views and contents push’s too. Big advocates for CLEANING UP after the REAL terrors of the tracks.
But I understand how someone would feel this way. But how far down the rabbit hole does one go and start thinking, finger pointing etc; at all the things that “ruin” our beautiful country ?
Interesting discussion to have I think.
The way that grahams axle and wheels rock side by side coming up that dune @8m42 sec is mesmerising 🎉❤
Glad to see Graham back with the old guys again. This show is always fun and relaxing to watch. 😎👍💯
The effort put into this channel is just remarkable. The angles. the shots. the amount of footage it must have taken and organisation to edit it all together. It's amazing.
I'm Nissan but I love 4x4s in general and Both those old girl's are awesome , all you need is an old Landrover and you've got the 3 car's that opened up our amazing Country !
The passion and commitment is just top notch, thank you so much 4WD24/7 you make my dream come true even when I don’t have car I feel am part of the adventure 💙
Very cool journey. And it really shows the difference in overlanding vs offroading.
G60 every day. Even though I am a Cruiser driver, my first 4wd was a G60. Great episode guys
Makes me want to drag the old Series IIa LandRover out of the shed and show you how it isn't done. 😂 Greatest show and adventures as always, loving it!
Always have a laugh watching these guys. Feel like i'm part of the group. Good wheelin, good food .good friends.
Graham mate, the G60 patrol all day every day. All I’ve ever known is Nissans and also the odd recovery (for my sisters Toyota when she had one) I also own a nice 1994 GQ which still purrs like a kitten. Love 4WD24/7 videos and the adventures you guys do! Keep on creating great memories for decades to come.
What an excellent series this was. You can see by the faces of everyone how much they were enjoying it. You Aussies really have created a channel second to none! The only thing you need is a Saffer to tell you that the meat always tastes better if it's a good few days past the use by date. 😂
As a South African myself, I agree 😊
Great to see you guys engage with another Simpson trip. We had a great adventure in August taking four Mokes from Mt Dare, down the Rig, up the K1 and into Poeppels, then North to exit at Jervois via the Hay River Track. All that on 120 litres capacity with fuel to spare at the end. Mokes rule 2WD 52/12 !
Not long finished a trip across the Simpson in a 30 year old GQ Patrol. Had a ball and your video brought back the memories.
Thanks guys 👍
great video. i'd go a G60 any day. grew up with Dad's G60 and it was a bullet (350chev) :-) and as Graham showed it pulled out its fair share of toyota's and land rovers in its time
It's a bit like watching Titanic. The title builds suspense around whether they are going to survive, but you know how it's going to end.....😂
I get so excited every morning when I wake up and see one of your videos published. You're legends mate!
We're glad we can bring you an awesome adventure!
Shauna
If your hubs are locked you’re not limiting the amount of time the front shaft is spinning
If the hubs are locked she’s spinning the front shaft
Came here looking for someone else saying that
yer but not under load
I am so glad you guys made it back..I would've never seen this awesome Footage of your challenging Trip. You guys are Legends!!!
The Camera Crew should get a shout-out..They are mostly the first up and threw the Challenges!!! Well done Guys!!!!!
We don't know where we'd all be without them! They're absolute legends. 🤙
One of the best episodes I’ve ever seen. Well done boys.
Cheers legend!
Good to see the group back together.
This episode was a long time coming and well worth the wait! An epic trip and good fun!
I'm from Kodagu(India)4*4 lover been watching you guys since COVID I love this show the drive, cooking part they are lit🔥🎉🎉
Cool video, good to see some old trucks showing these newer trucks how it was done.
And Graham, go to G60, learnt to drive in one, and they have a soft spot in the transfer case for me.
Seeing you guys upload makes my day 1000% better, you guys really make it feel like im on the trip with you guys.
Cheers mate - your support makes our day!
THANK YOU! finally someone explaining the different applications and costs. Now I feel I have clarity to make the right choice for me.
Thank you for the brilliant adventure. I "drove" with you every km of the way. Great video.
Deffo one of the best run and episodes, back to basics, love it. Greetings from 🇵🇹🇬🇧
Been waiting for this 1 to drop. Well done boys. Epic trip
that was an epic journey, loved loved loved it. We did SD a few years ago but we were on a bit of a time schedule and on our way to WA next year we are doing it again, this time on the go slow and time will not be our enemy. Great trip guys and go the G60
Patrol 100%
As always I’m left with a smile on my face and a soul full of wanderlust 😊😊😊
I was looking at the flies and it reminded me of when I was halfway between Port Augusta and Whyalla when my alternator belt let go, the flies were incredible changing it out, but I didn't see the dead Roo 50mts over the hill but the old L series Subaru did a good job on a 2500k trip with my mate and fully loaded.
Awesome video as always 4WD 24/7 Crew. The Simpsons Desert is such a epic place. I hope one day I've have the opportunity to come to Australia and drive some of these epic and awesome place like these great group of friends.
The camera guys must love this environment. Some of the best shots and footage I’ve seen. Excellent work.
love see the older rigs out there miss my 67 scout
What an epic trip! we've a couple of nice places out here in Southern Africa resembling your route in parts but nearly not as vast. It truly is about simply getting out there and doing it! 🤙No matter what you drive, as long as you're in good company with good mates. 👌
You guys are hilarious. What a trip. Seriously though, what's better than a few buddies goofing around in the middle of nowhere.
Probably one of my favourite episodes, and I said it before it Always shows which one is a better car, Go Nissan!! 😊
You definitely have to consider taking Russell Coight on one of your next outback trips! He will be able to guide and help you on an adventure like this; Like you have never experienced before, he will safe guard you.
Second this
Absolutely loved the trip boys. I havent done the Simpson but have done Strzelecki, Birdsville & Oodnadatta tracks. Loved the adventures.
After another long wait, another incredible episode has been released
They wait is too long 😢
@@karimyorkston9199 for real
We never wan't to give you sub-par adventures! Cheers for being patient with us!
You guys make the best 4WD vids on youtube bar none, not only with the old rigs but with 4b's us normal people can afford 👍🏻🍻
They are a bunch of flogs.
So much fun watching you legends have so much fun.. Cheers to another fantastic episode.
Love the vids guys- watching you off road from Canada - looks so much fun.
ive been waiting for this episode for forever, you guys are my favourite.
Your a big inspiration on me keep up the work boys and great job for the old cars that made it and the camera boys hope it was funner than it looked
Epic trip fellas. That one's on the bucket list for sure. Cheers boys. Magic
Great job guys. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the 2 part journey. 🍻
You guys wheeling these old rigs is the best thing ever.
Great video, I am from eastern Canada and the terrain is so much different, that big dune ate up the Toyota's, made for some good fun with friends. The Jeep and Toyota guys are always teasing each other over here too. I have had Jeeps, Toyota's, Fords, Jeeps, all good stuff and lots of fun when you get to tug your buddy out. Would love to get over there some day and have a go around the trails over there, it would be awesome to take my Jeep Gladiator Rubicon over and try it out on the trails.
This trip is the best one ever on 4wd247. Well done everyone, and what an epic journey.
Seano needs to put some other wheels on that 40 series so he can go tubeless, 33x10.5r15 maybe. The farm truck would have made light work of those dunes too!
8:05 unless your hoping out and putting the hubs in free, you're not stopping the shaft from spinning, only taking the load off. they will still fail, just not quite as quick.
exactly that’s y he only put it under load when he really had too
G60 for me such an awesome looking rig. . It's on my bucket list to build one one day with SD33T & MQ running gear 😍
It's crazy what a set of aired down duratracs can do in the sand. They are such an impressive tire in sand and snow.
From South Africa gents,loving the series. And farm truck all day. After that recovery on the dune, I reckon a full rebuild series of both trucks with upgrades for diesels and a rematch!
Always happy to watch each episode!
Love these longer episodes gents. Keep em coming, the longer the better I say...
Well done boys! you guys are all living the dream.
Great show! Thanks 😊
I'm from the UK we don't have any wide expanses like this. Totally blows my mind!
Bro that was a great lesson!! Thank you 👍👍
Well done boys another awsome video, can't wait to see your next adventure.
Probably your best show yet. Great video & those old trucks are bloody terrific.
Thanks Legend - we're so happy with it & glad you enjoyed it!
Great adventure in those old trucks. good time with friends. Doesn't get any better than that.
You got that right!
Brilliant absolutely brilliant. Love to see more like this.
Love watching your adventures..cheers from the Tokelaus
You can wrap those loose universals in clear plastic wrap. They will hold them together for a while. It takes a while to cut the wrap off when you finally get to a repair shop.
the one constant in all these episodes…Graham squealing….with joy!
And always just annoying and self centered.
We got a State Park called Mount Davis in West TX! My trip is on 27th.. Yes, I need to fill up my tank now!
I sat down with my dinner, steak and veg. I got to the end of this ep with my knife and fork in each hand, dinner untouched. Fantastic ep. Thanks for posting.
Doin' the Simmo in a 47 series on split rims, that deserves a round of applause!
Another fantastic trip ya'll!!! Never disappoints.
Glad you enjoyed it - more awesome trips to come!
The simpson desert 🏜 2 old rigs and 4wd247 🍻absolutely epic boys!
Cheers mate! It was awesome 🤙
the best adventure channel . i love it mate . from KE
What's up from the PNW . Enjoy your summer😂
Absolute gold!! Loved the vid lads, now I’m frothing to organise a Simpson trip
Yes mate - get on it! It's a once in a lifetime experience!
Luv it boys. Best 4wd channel on TH-cam.
I’m just glad you boys look like me after a week in the bush. A bit rough round the edges but some decent food and loose inhibitions nonetheless
G60 all day long! go the nissans. Your right you can't beat a good desert camp, love the trip, Have done the Madigan and loved every minute if it. glad you enjoyed it as well. I bet you are glad you didn't bin the lamp, dont worry about best befores.
This is my favourite channel on TH-cam, period.
Epic trip guys, thanks for letting me ride along!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful stew. Made it tonight after wating this episode last night! Everyone loved it!!
Love all your content boys!
I’d choose the farm truck, even though I’ve driven Nissans for years. My old man bought one just like it when I was a kid and I used to love that glove box! Heck, I loved the footwell vents too, especially during water crossings 😂
I've been stoked for this part 2!
SALUDO DESDE ARGENTINA, ME ENCANTA AUTRALIA, ESTUBE A POCO DE EMIGRAR, ESPERO NO MORIR SIN CONOCER TAN HERMOSO LUGAR, SON CULTURAS DISTANTES Y MUY SIMILARES COSTUMBRES... SALUDOS EXITOS

Been waiting for this one for a while! Love your videos mate
My wife and I really enjoyed that one could not stop laughing at Graham and Shawo and really good seeing those old trucks walking through the sand dunes,
G60. I’d actually love to have a Nissan like Pete’s rig. Love that thing! Great video as always boys! Thank you
