BOOM !! Part 1 💥💥💥.... absolutely epic trip and such a great crew. Incredible edit super star. Can’t wait to see the next installments.... think I’ll need to watch this one again.
It used to have two huts beside it. He put it there to lock his gear up on weekends when he logged in the area. I have great memories of riding a Z50 mini bike with my brother, all through that area. My family left the area in 1987. He always intended to go back and retrieve it, but he has never got a around to it.
Great videos enjoy the Victorian high country and thanks to the Victorian Government for keeping their tracks open I just like to make one point track preservation we need to all look after the four-wheel drive tracks in Victoria and anywhere for that matter so that they stay open and not have them shut because we have hoons going flat chat through every pothole they can find trac preservation
Great one Steve, I wish I could have made it along. I remember finding that carriage by accident after talking the wrong track on a Navrun a few years back 😬
Thanks bud. I do try and put some effort into the music choice so it’s nice that ppl enjoy it. We will have to hit the tracks sometime in the high country.
Hey Steve, love your videos, but man - tell that bloke to put a damper on that snatch strap, a bloke died this year in Qld with a shackle to the back of the head doing exactly the same thing. Stay safe
Good point. I wasn’t really involved in the recovery I was just on the side holding the camera. Winch blankets on snatch’s straps are a relatively new thing and I think the msg is slow getting out there. Thanks for the reminder and I’ll be watching more closely next recovery.
+rudvs We were all moving pretty slow. So it’s prolly a good thing you didn’t catch us lol. We were holding way to many ppl with camera work that needed to be done.
Australian 4x4 Adventures I’m out in Nhulunbuy, East Arnhem Land, so we deal with it daily, only 20km of seal road before 700km of dirt till next town 👍
Great vid Steve👌 I look forward to heading out there in a couple of weeks time, any particular tracks you recommend being a must while out that way? Cheers Peter
I’m only 13 and we’ve got a 200 gxl mate there so beast with Mickey Thompson’s 33 inch and king brown exhaust now just trynna convince my parents to get black rims old mate wants em but mum doesn’t because ours is silver like yours but she doesn’t think it will suit it but I showed her your rims and she loved em mate
Yeah we ran through all of crooked river through to the kingswell bridge. Deepest crossing was about top of wheel height ( 33” muddie ). Nothing to hard at all. Hopefully this helps.
Guys, please get your snatch straps untwisted, it's cringeworthy to watch. In addition, i see the chaps sand damper in a few places, but none of them on on the actual strap. Come on boys, basic knowhow like that should be there long before you start doing tracks where you might actually use that gear. I generally enjoy your vids though, keep at it.
At the time I didn’t even notice. I was to busy holding a camera to try and capture it for you guys. But I will be keeping a closer eye next time for sure to make sure everything’s done a little safer.
steve awesome vid. cant wait for part 2 and 3. But i have to ask one question. all 4wds in australia have a heavy bull bar. keeping in mind the probability of an animal strike vs the lower fuel efficiency and loss in offroad perfirmance due to weight, dont you think we could do without bull bars?
Interesting question. For anyone who does country driving in Australia a bull bar is mainly for animal strike. But it also has the added benefits of being able to mount spot lights and UHF aerials on as well. I personally never seen much of a fuel difference with and without the bull bar. Approach angles are generally better then factory bumpers and they make the car look tough as 😆.
@@Australian4x4Adventures honestly i love the look and was thinking of getting one on the first 4wd i have owned a 2016 pajero v6 3.5 but everybody here in abu dhabi discouraged me because we have enormously tall dunes and the weight of the car has to be light in order to cross those hurdles.

I think 2 or 3 more times should do the trick to really soak in all that high country magic
Great start to the series of videos from the trip bring on part 2 and 3
My Dad put that rail carriage there back in 1982.
What’s the story behind it?
It used to have two huts beside it. He put it there to lock his gear up on weekends when he logged in the area. I have great memories of riding a Z50 mini bike with my brother, all through that area. My family left the area in 1987. He always intended to go back and retrieve it, but he has never got a around to it.
Wow. That’s super interesting. I didn’t see any remains of Huts around it. But I wasn’t really looking for them either.
Nigel's thanks for the info mate. I’d love to know how he got it out there?
Dan Strommer, with a float which was used to shift the machines with.

You would of loved this trip. Was heaps of fun.
Awesome Steve, brings back memories. Love the music choice too. Cheers Steve

We will have to hit the tracks sometime in the high country.
That would be awesome ! I have no idea next time I'll be down there but I will let you know for sure. Cheers Steve
awesome video, looks like tons of fun!
Thanks buddy.
My Dad ran a trip with the Dandenong Ranger Four Wheel Drive club up near lake sally back of Hotthom one cup weekend and it snowed.
It’s pretty cool to see the snow on the peaks still when it’s almost summer
Quite agree.
Nice 👌 can’t wait to hit the high country
Not Working Tomorrow
It’s different to almost anywhere else in Australia. Definitely worth it
@@Australian4x4Adventures its on the list for next year, got the west coast to explore first

Love the new series Steve. Video footage and story telling is "mint".
I see you have some fans offering constructive feedback, always handy...
It’s nice that ppl care enough to comment and tell me what they do and don’t like. At least it’s striking enough to get ppl talking.
Epic vid man nice work!
Thanks buddy.
I was up there same day must of been a few hours behind you
+rudvs

Hi.can i asked which camera and drone was used? Ta
I really wanna do this!
Nice to see the np300 out and about 👍
And we didn’t have to recover it all weekend. I was impressed.
I’ve got a 150 prado and my np300 goes where it goes 👍
Nice. Both seem like nice cars.
Australian 4x4 Adventures I’m out in Nhulunbuy, East Arnhem Land, so we deal with it daily, only 20km of seal road before 700km of dirt till next town 👍
I think you will have to change your number plate to DODGEMUD. Those 4x4 Brothers know how to send it! Go the Nissan, always pulling out tojo’s
I didn’t see a single Nissan even giving it a go 😂. Just trying to claim the glory of the brave Toyota drivers.
When's the tarnac drag race happening you two? And it should definitely be a half mile just to be sure 👍
Just gotta send it
Great vid Steve👌 I look forward to heading out there in a couple of weeks time, any particular tracks you recommend being a must while out that way?
Cheers Peter
I could give you a list a mile long of all the good tracks. I’ll write em down and send them to you.
@@Australian4x4Adventures Cheers mate 👍
Hey mate really want to know what rims you have on the 200 series that beast
+Kayhlan Seery
Hey hey. They are the 17x9 CSA large cap raptors. In the satin black. I love em.
Australian 4x4 Adventures thanks so much Steve for the quick reply
No dramas at all. Lazy Sunday for me so heaps of time on my hands today.

Mate did you guys run through talbotville at all?
If so what’s the river level like there?
Awesome vid 👍
Yeah we ran through all of crooked river through to the kingswell bridge.
Deepest crossing was about top of wheel height ( 33” muddie ). Nothing to hard at all. Hopefully this helps.
Do you know of any dash cams that stand up to 4x4ing? Cold hot dust and vibrations?
I do know a few. I may do a video on it to show you and others about them. 👍. Thanks for the idea.
what dirty gear bag do you run on the spare wheel of our 200 mate?
It’s an old black widow one I got years ago. I’m not sure they make em anymore.
What lift and tyres are on the 150?
I believe it was 2” icon lift and 285-70-17s
@@Australian4x4Adventures Much appreciated. Will sit on my BP51s for now and maybe go up a tyre size when I'm due for rubber.

Pulled my son out of the same bog hole, 15 mins before you had a crack at it 🍻😄
Ha. You guys must of been some of the cars we seen on that section of the track. Sweet as.
Did the Nissan's even attempt that bog hole
Not one Nissan even attempted the bog hole. Just tried to claim glory when pulling out the Toyota’s brave enough to try it.
@@Australian4x4Adventures thought so lol. Was that the same navara that nearly got stuck on the entrance to the track😂🤣

I personally think power overcomes weight. I’d bolt a bull bar on there and be happy and also look at supercharger to add a few hundred HP.
@@hghori1 also when remote travelling we need to be able to self-recover using a winch. Bullbar allows for practical winch mount👍
@@Australian4x4Adventures great vid mate!
What's the soundtrack you have in this video
It’s all royalty free music from epidemic sound. So it’s a mixture of artist.
Great video but I’ll be honest I’m waiting for a copy right infringement with 4wd Action in the title 😂 sorry I can just see it happening aye
Lol. Will wait and see I guess. All I’m saying is it has 4wd action within the video.
Yeah mate I know what you mean but I can see some office prick report it aye. Hopefully not but yeah good luck mate keep up the killer work
😂. Yeah I know what ya mean.
Hopefully not.
Thanks heaps man.
Wat brand of shorts r u rockin?
😂. That’s gotta be the oddest question to date.
Hard yakka bud. Got about 12 pair of them because I ware em for work everyday
@@Australian4x4Adventures Haha. I bet. Thx. I'll be getting me some
A warning about the foul language in the music you've added to it would be good to
