FORGING A NEW TRACK in the Top End! • Grueling, untouched 4WD terrain

There’s remote, and then there’s where Shaun and Graham are heading on this episode of 4WD Action! They’re back at Lorella Springs in the Top End, and this time they’re creating a brand new track! Following in the footsteps of the famous explorer Ludwig Leichardt, they’re battling untouched wilderness, wild creek and river crossings and rocky expanses that have never before seen the treads of a 4WD.
With the punishment they’re putting Shorty and the Dirty 30 through, there’s no guarantee that they’re gonna make it through this one, but one thing’s for certain - they’re gonna give it a red hot go!
Epic, untouched campsites, stunning waterholes, grueling terrain and pristine Aussie wilderness - this is remote touring at its most wild!

The stuff I've learned from watching wheelers down under makes America's trails a whole lot easier. All the channels are great.. But this group takes it over the top with fishing time and camp fire recipes. Absolutely binge-worthy stuff here, folks.

[@matthutch5919]

Mate u need to check out Tyler Thompson & Ronny Darl. There channel's r so much better. Not saying this is a bad channel but they definitely "talk it up" More than 1 or 2 of the products they say r 100% quality r 60% crap. That is a un sponsorship 100% real world experience with the same products these guys recommend. In Australia we call it "the wank factor" & you'll experience a lot of it on this channel. Turn the volume off best way to watch

[@zeck60]

Jake Ballard Shorty is Graham's SWB Nissan Patrol Y60

[@drumhed]

Thanks, I finally made the connection when they brought in that white Patrol in another episode. Honestly, the only Austrailian UTEs and wagons Americans ever hear about are the Cruisers.

[@dimsim8542]

@@drumhed yeah mate well Patrols are the bees knees especially the old GUs and GQs with the 4.2 TD engine. Things run up to a million km without a hiccup so long as you do an oil and filter swap every 5000 and brake pads etc at every major service. Bulletproof engines

Those other tight arses won’t release anything more than 4 minutes. LOL There loss your gain but deservedly :)

I have a CHALLENGE for 4wd drivers. Do a journey on horses. Really get down with nature and find out what it was like back then, to make a track with horses

[@rjofur]

Good video, very interesting trip and unusual. Great opportunity to drive in wild country. Pulling a trailer though? Just making it harder for everyone else. I can understand if that is needed for provisions for a very long trip, but heck, you are pulling a kitchen and a bedroom. Not needed.

please explain. Apparently you are a profression on erosion. Do you think rain has anything to do with erosion? Do we have erosion problems in the wilderness?

[@imemovengeance]

Alex Supertramp I will say this, in the U.S most of our offroad clubs do trail clean ups, trail repair to stop erosion, replant trees and etc. There are those people that don't care what they do when on the trail (like making new trails around mud) but that happens with mtn bikers too. Offroaders genuinely are outdoor enthusiasts that care about the Tread Lightly rule.

Hears a joke for ya their was an Aussie a Chinese and an American guy they were in a hotair balloon they had too much stuff so the balloon couldn't float so the Americans chucked out the phones coz they have to many of them in there country and the Chinese chucked out the food coz they have too many of that in their country and the AUSSIE s chucked out the Chinese coz tney have too many of them in there country ha ha ha Sorry for being racial but any way have a lovly day

[@edifyguy]

The Americans would have kept the Chinese because they realize how smart, kind, and hardworking they are. The Chinese would have kept the phones because they understand that technology is worth its weight in usefulness. The Aussies would have kept the food because they never know when the balloon will come down anyway and they'll be stuck in the bush and need it. So there. :P
