Dude, I’m so sorry that happened! Glad y’all were alright and able to drive out!
What happened to his E-brakes mechanical pull brakes or mechanical floor brakes?
Yeah! Did he have a stroke or something???
That's when you have to weigh the pros and cons between a manual and and automatic transmission. Badass though that it finished the trail and brought you all the way back home, very impressive.🤘
Captnhowdy 88 he has a automatic stalled the torque converter
This has nothing to do with the transmission. This is driver error and panic. I’ve been in this exact ledge a few times.
Anis Bekhazi upgrades? Are you kidding me? How about keeping your calm when in a bad situation. That is number one. Throwing money at a vehicle doesn’t make you a better driver. That’s part of the problem with overlanders.
@@Crawlerjamie I'm assuming it stalled because he rolled backwards while still in drive?
@@jshaw6600 Exactly. Did this once on my Z71 pickup on ice. Going about 40 and did a 180. Truck instantly stalled when I caught traction moving backwards. Not much you can do about it.
That rollover was brutal to watch. You gained so much momentum rolling backwards. Pretty much unavoidable. Luckily there wasn't a huge drop off or anything. Baboons pass in Africa is a super sketchy trail and hard to watch people do. Huge deadly drop offs with inches to spare from a cliff.
Lots of places would have had a less survivable outcome with significant drop-offs. If this had been the 'Lion's Back', which is now closed, the 4Runner and its driver would have been balled up after dropping 150-300 feet.
Could have been avoided by using the mechanical break
That role makes me cringe everytime I see it.
Trail Ready 4Runner roll
Haven't finished the video, jumped up & yelled when it stalled & you rolled back! Glad no one was hurt, and coz it's a 'Yota I KNEW it'd walk off the field on it's own. Blessed to have your crew there with you.
Bob Gatewood yessir! 🤘🏼
Crazy rollover! Glad no one was hurt. New follower, so I see how she has been rebuilt. One of my favorite trails in Moab!
Dude that looked scary. Glad you're ok and hope you got the runner running again!
Nice video. Probably my favorite trail to date. Can’t stop watching that thing bouncing backwards. Horrifying
Yeah, def not a fun day after that haha... but old Sandy’s getting a few upgrades as a result. All’s well that ends well 🤘
Crazy, glad your safe and 4runner still going strong
My heart! I gripped my gen 3s steering wheel a little tight when I saw it go south.
Damn, so sorry for the crunch, but sweet Sandy stood by you, took care of you and safely brought you all the way home, bless her heart.
holy crap that what scary to watch.. crazy she finished the run and got you guys home! Glad no one got hurt..good stuff man
4runners are quite something! I have one and I love it. Glad she made it out considering there situation
The rollover scared the crap out of me. Glad everyone was ok
I did NOT expect that !! Makes my heart cry lol.....sick runner tho!!
The Gopro Guy thanks man! You seen it since the rebuild??
@@Opt.Offroad yes i have! I'm amazed with the progress! Hopefully my runner will look the same soon! Goals man haha keep it up
I've taken 2 different 3rd gen 4runners right up that hill. Both 5 speeds, both open diff. One had stock suspension and the other had a 1in spacer lift. The next time I was there was with a rear locker and a 3in toytec kit. Couldn't make it up. In fact all the 3rd gens that were lifted couldn't get it. It just goes to show what a little anti squat does in the rear suspension
Iv'e had my 3rd gen for 20 years this very month and I'll have it another 20 if I live that long... which I likely won't. Best darn dependable trail rig there is!
It was for its time, much better stuff out now.
@@SuddenSlip What can I get that doesn't cost 10-20 times as much?
That’s what 4Runners are for (sorta) go thru shit and “hell” and still get you where you need to go. I love my 4th gen, upgrading to a 5th gen 4wd soon. Am very excited.
Love seeing the spectators run over to help. Car people = good people
Mickey Roessler that was all my family and friends, hence the screaming and crying. Definitely good to have everyone there!
If you’re going to push it, be ready to fix it. Looks like you know how to do the field repairs. Good job. I can fix a flat so I’ll stick to the easy stuff.
I am happy to see no one hurt and that your vehicle still made it back under it's own power. You however have shown me a way to carry my 14 gallons gas can. I was wondering if I had to tow it with a trailer. Now I see I can stash it on the roof.
Looks like an excellent character building experience...
That’s one way to put it haha
I am glade everyone was OK. To prevent this in the future, install an extra vacuum canister for the brake booster.
I give it to ya man....Ya have some straight passion for this thrill
Can never get enough!
Only a Toyota can drive away from a wreck where someone seems to have forgotten about the break pedal and rolls his rif lol :)
had my brake pedal to the floor the whole time. that was the worst part, i was helpless once the motor stalled
Phenomenal video! Very entertaining. Sorry about the roll and tip but glad you're ok and Sandy is up and kicking
JC Rowell thanks! Yeah everyone is ok (including Sandy) and that’s all that matters now 🤙🏼 thx for watching!
That could have been so much worse, glad everyone is ok. What type of rear bumper is that, I love it!
DoeBoy 407 thanks man! The rear bumper is from Addicted Offroad
Sweet, thanks ima check them out! How’s the runner?
Whenever I drive a rig with an automatic transmission and I think I'm gonna roll back I make absolutely sure I can pop it into neutral as fast as I can, put it reverse before I roll back, or have my wits about me to hit the parking brake in case the motor gets stalled by the torque converter.
I also left foot brake alot so I can keep my right foot on the gas so the whole drive train stays engaged.
Can't stop a 4runner
Dam bro sorry about you're rig 😥 glad you ok, you have some good content and edits definetly worth the subscription 👍
L Ros thanks for subscribing man! Yeah it sucked at the time, but in hindsight I’m kinda glad it happened haha
Glad your all good! Crazy. Awsome it made it out for you. Wild man
Damn dude that is scary. Mine has a manual transmission so now I am scared af of stalling. I guess having the clutch out would keep the vehicle from moving especially in 4 low.
What's the mechanic behind the torque converter? That way we know what to do before that happens to any of us
First off, I’m glad you’re okay, that was a scary situation. My question is how did the stall converter stall the engine? I’ve never heard of that.
When then an Automatic rolls backward with the engine running, it cuts off the engine to prevent damage. The engine in D wants to push the vehicle forward, rolling backward causes binding, and something will break if the engine does shut off.
ive done it to my girl a couple times not on propose of course, for some reason after a drive when the engines warm, it will idle below 400 rpm for some reason I think cause of the heat, only would cut off as I pulled into a parking space idling in, because he had his truck in 4 high, the wheels lost traction, if he ran in 4 Low, the engine can rev higher and wheels wont spin to hard and keep traction
3:56
guy has a death wish, standing that close to cables with that much tension.
I drove the same 4runner with 360k on it for 10th days in SLC and Moab, this Gen are beast to kill! just some TLC and back on the road (or offroad! ;) )
Yessir! 🤘
That really sucks man glad you are safe though, what a ride! I wonder if the wheels were kept straight, if it would have not rolled.. just kind of gone down that ditch but it was like a bowl, so just would have rolled up hill afterwards. Hard to do in such split second situation.. but damnnn as soon as the wheel was turned after starting to roll backwards i was scared for you man. Lessons learned, hope you're still doing well. Live long toyotas though haha
WOW..great video btw...sorry for your accident..really liked the editing
deadkemper thanks! She’s all fixed now, came back better than ever 👍
No brakes at all? Looks like you pushed the clutch not the brakes or maybe the Toyota floor mat got stuck.
This. Even with no booster you have brakes. Just no assist. I don't run a booster in my crawler. Just takes a little more leg effort.
Don’t have a clutch pedal, and if you look closely you can see the brake lights turn on right after I cut throttle. Brake pedal was to the floor as soon as I realized what was happening. Didn’t matter by that point
Nice Vid, that roll puckered me right up. Saw the after vid first, subbed seeing this.
Glad you're safe! I would rather stay on payment...
Im so sorry man ... im just glad your safe 🤘🏼
I don't understand the mechanics of the loss of control. The engine stalled with the automatic trans in gear and it freewheeled backward with no resistance from the engine? I did not know what was possible.
Yes that pretty much sums it up. Same as when you push in a clutch on a manual transmission, you can roll freely while in gear. When the torque converter is not putting load on the transmission from the engine, there is nothing to prevent you from rolling
This video is amazing god bless you for staying safe and sound guys!!
The manual says there should be enough reserve pressure for one more assisted braking... it looks to me like they were wrong.
Scary stuff! Kinda glad I stayed off of any real trails my first time out to Moab, there's always next time
Tell you what, my first time out there I'm rolling passenger with someone experienced....I'm still brand new to wheeling so I've got a ton to learn. Still amazed how capable the 3rd gen I just got is though, haven't done anything close to this hard but still stuff that seemed hard at first but I'm realizing my rig will do a surprising amount even though it's not that upgraded (2" spacer lift and 31.5s that came on it when I bought it and some fairly cheap aftermarket shocks).
Was this even with yanking the e brake lever?
Sorry that happened man! Glad you weren't hurt!
I haven’t read through all the comments, so I apologize if you’ve already answered this question, but did you try depressing the emergency brake?
Great footage. I'm glad you walked out ok
Good thing there wasn't a giant cliff at the end of that.
I like the little dance and the dude screaming at 3:17
Yikes! This is a super tough learning moment. Glad you are okay and your vehicle ultimately survived. Just out of curiosity, what tire pressure were you running?
Thanks! We were at 10psi probably
E-break?
4runners AND drones! Sign me up
Amazin253 haha yeah we were overlanding pretty hard that day 😂
Lmao and kept on chugging along!
The positive, you walked away healthy!!!stay safe out there!
What size tires on the 3rd gen 4runner and did it have a lift. I want to go to Moab and want to see what works.
Rosco Bosco they’re 315/75/16, or a little smaller than 35s. You could do most everything out there with 33s
Fuuccckk makes me not even want to do anything with mine now id he so hurt 😭 glad y’all walked away! I bet that was scary asf
If I had to put money on it I would bet most of those Fiat Jeeps were were trailered there, and then back to their subdivisions with more broken parts than the 4-runner.
You would lose your money.
You see Jeeps 20 to 1 Toyota in Moab. There's a reason for that
4runner roll over no biggie it's a Toyota start it up and keep on down the trail
Maybe for an 80 series or one of the old Hiluxes, but these aren't built that tough. They're reliable as hell but, well, as demonstrated, not as tough. An old Cherokee XJ would probably be tougher than this
Youre an idiot lmao
Love your videos!
etienne palos thanks man!
thanks for the video and the experience. do you think if you apporached the same obstacle without flooring it, but slow and steady that you would have been able to clear, or at least be in a more controlled state after loosing some traction?
it's possible! spent lots of time armchair quarterbacking that moment
Aww man just bought a 03 4runner last week, sucks to see the damage but damn... toyota is tough af
Could've been way worse dude , awesome footage though and nice 4 runner , did u ever get it fixed?
lxH8xURxFACE thanks! Yeah watch the “project long travel” series to check it out. Basically a bunch of timelapse videos. I’ve uploaded a handful of trail vids since then too 👍
Glad you were safe.
ouch, sorry brother, thanks for sharing though
dang... that was crazy!!
No brakes applied at 3:15. Even with the engine off, you can still have 2-3 chances to apply brakes. Wonder how ABS works when travelling backwards?
Jan pur watch it again, this time look at the smaller frame and make sure you’ve got HD on. You can clearly see my brake lights. By the time I realized I had stalled and pushed my brakes to the floor, there was no booster left to use
What do you mean "no booster left to use" ... you still had fluid in the lines, and a pedal connected to the MC piston. Have you never used breaks without the engine on? Stand on that bitch, it will stop
@@nosebergs-are-at-it-again For sure. Brakes are made to work without the engine running. It's twice as hard to push but they work. Hit the emergency brake too although shit happens quick !!
Glad your okay 👍
He gave it hell
My 4th gen was silver...her name was Sandy
Scary ride. 😬
damn that thing was in mint condition too
Haha not quite.. front clip was replaced before I bought it and things never really lined up right. That was before I hit some black ice while living in NC. Bent in the whole passenger front side. She’s been rebuilt a handful of times haha!
@@Opt.Offroad looked mint anyway🤣
That's when u stand on brake with both feet and try to put the steering wheel through the ceiling, did same thing in my jeep, managed to stop
Sorry bro 🇺🇸 love the finish tho trail done and home safe! I am a firm believer in too many things mechanical can go wrong will go wrong! It would just be nice if manufacturers could keep things simple instead of expensive...glad you didn’t get hurt! 4 runners usually are a family rig so I flipped out for a sec
I was climbing a steep dirt hill in my 3rd gen and my truck stalled too...why does it do this? I was in 4 low.
I have a beige 3rd gen named Sandy too.
That was quite a (unwanted)ride...
What all have you done to your 4runner? love the rig!
MMayer thanks man! BTF long travel with Kings front and rear, dual locked 5.29s on 35s
What's the name of the song? Sounds good.😃
And so was the story of the used 4x4 market in Moab Utah
Siiii
Y llegó a casa por sus pies Bravo TOYOTA 👍
What tire carrier is that? I've built a rear bumper and now I'm debating whether or not to fab up a swingout tire carrier. The one you are running seems to provide a good bit of exit angle. Also, how did the KO2s do?
It was a home built one, using a hitch mounted swing (meant for those baskets) and a Walmart hitch mounted tire carrier. To be honest the exit angle was horrible, at least for the stuff I like to do. I sold it last year and am gathering the supplies to modify my bumper with an actual swingout. The KO2s have done great for what they are. Much more grippy than the OGs. I’ll probably go with some mud terrains next time tho 👍🏼
@@Opt.Offroad What type of latch and spindle are you planning on using? Well, if you're thinking MTs you don't mind road noise. I'd suggest looking into Cooper STT Pros. A tad noisy, but more than capable on the trail. A very balanced AT. KO2s are good, just couldn't cut the butter for me, plus, expensive!
Jasonhb07 I got the latch on Amazon, just one of those basic vertical pull style. The hinge is Comp4x4’s dual shear, which I don’t recommend just based on their lack of communication and how long it took me to get my product. Just go with 4xInnovations, that’s what I would do if I was starting over.
STT Pros are on my list of considerations 👍🏼 a few of my wheeling buddies have them and like them a lot
@@Opt.Offroad Be sure to upload a video of your build. Good luck!
Glad this didn't happen at Moab Rim trail 😬.
Jesus christ I could taste the metal in my mouth
Honestly , do you find your self snapping front CV axles alot?
XxSocalzFinestxX not often at all. Having the front diff locked helps save a lot of wear on the front end, CVs included. The only reason I ever broke them was when I was at full droop and steering lock. Too much angle for the outer joints. I’m hoping with my new LT setup, I can avoid all binding and (knock on wood) not break another CV for a long time
Real life 👍🏼
That f****** hurt me cuz I love my 4runner
How much did this cost to fix
Fuck, what if it happend on the hell gete... thats realy scary.
Roofrack?
Sucks that happened. Im lost....so the torque converter can stop working you go down?.. That's some crazy shiz man. Now that is going to be in my head, when im out having fun. Or maybe not too much fun ....
damacknificent151 it was a combination of things, a lot of it had to do with the obstacle specifically. Our trail guide, who is out on Hell’s Revenge like every day, says it’s common for people to stall on that hill. The real question is why were my brakes immediately worthless. Normally you can press on the brake and it’ll work normally long enough to restart the truck. Mine didn’t for some reason, still not sure why after checking over everything on the brake system.
I had an issue with my abs not letting me brake while going down a hill, thankfully no cliffs, but i wonder why abs wont ley me brake. Is it flawed? I could just hear the abs making noise and no brakes. Did you find out why you couldn't brake?
damacknificent151 honestly it wouldn’t surprise me if the ABS was a factor in my crash. Our generation Toyotas have really unreliable ABS systems, though I’ve never had a direct issue with mine. I’m still considering pulling the ABS fuse
Brakes?
Come on man ? No E brake too? Wtf
Glad your all right bud
Black Lavender thanks man 🍻
I would literally throw up.
If you change your thumbnail to advertise the roll-over, you’ll get 1000% more click-through.
Yeah but then it wouldn’t be a surprise 😂
MAAAAaaasteeeer 😁😁😁 ✌✌👍👍👍👍
