Breaking Jeeps On The Rubicon With

[@DirtLifestyle]

Thank you for watching the video! Since OnX is the official sponsor of this trip it feels like a good time to remind you that we have a 20% discount worked out for any of you interested in trying their software. I believe it's like $30 for the year, which is already cheap, but who doesn't like to save a little extra when they can. No pressure on my end but this really is great software. It's constantly helping me find epic destinations. Call some friends and get some trips on the calendar! The time for making memories is now folks! The Rubicon NEEDS to be on your bucket list as well as a few others that I have plans to visit in the near future. Oh yeah, the Discount code is "dirtlifestyle" and here is a link if you are interested. Thank again for watching! ONX MAPS: webmap.onxmaps.com/account-purchase.html?

If you have the locker on it turns off abs, tacomas have a anti roll back feature that uses the abs, many times if I’m using the locker and I roll back just a inch it will shut the truck off and say trans temp high and oil pressure low

[@MacsSpecialitiesMotorsports]

BTW I love how you ended the video! Well said and very inspirational

[@callmesomething1425]

Thanks for the end of the video. My Dad just passed away on his 60th birthday. He always wanted to do Moab and we made plans to but his health got in the way. For his memorial we went to Moab for him with all our jeeps and it was amazing. Life is short live it to the fullest you can.

[@phillims1]

Having just come through cancer treatment, I have to totally agree with you Nate. We only get one ride, and we never know when it might end. Waste nothing…

[@thelonewrangler1008]

I hope you're doing better. My first car was a VW thing that I paid $1200 for and wish I never sold it😎

[@DirtLifestyle]

Thank you for your perspective 🙏. I hope you are doing better brother!

[@stacyreid5077]

Hope you are doing better Michael Phillips, I broke my back in 2000 and my ankle was broken and twisted around backwards back in 1992 but until my testosterone level bottomed out at 37 in 2018, I was still living my life pretty much and even went to West Virginia riding the Hatfield and McCoy trails with my brother on our SXSs in 2012

Yet so many people are... I will do it tomorrow..

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Wow, I’m not looking forward to editing my video from this trip, because yours was too good! This was such a great trip. I had an absolute blast.

[@senditkevin]

You got this Shaun! Your videos are always great.

[@offroadwizard1928]

Can’t wait to see it Shaun! I always like to see your style of videos. You’re a good film maker.

[@jasonjohnson4214]

I seriously CANT WAIT to see your video Shawn! You tell stories so well and we will get a different view from what Nate had. Plus….rope swing!!! Lol. So good getting to know you! Hope to hang out again soon!

[@DirtLifestyle]

I love that you will have such a different perspective lol. Us splitting up will make for two completely different videos! Hit me up if you need any footage that you saw in the video buddy. I got you 👊

[@flyfisher530]

Nate this is one of your best videos ever. You have become so good at telling a story and the editing is outstanding. Your bush repairs for the tire, fuel filter etc. were awesome to watch. It was great to have a chance to sit down with you at Expo PNW. Hope to see you on the trails someday soon!

[@DirtLifestyle]

Hey thanks man 🙌. I appreciate the positive comment and I hope to see you on the trail 👊

[@LimitlessOverland]

Agreed this video was epic!

[@PNW_Rodeo]

I did an upgrade on a buddies Tacoma by installing a cotter pin in the transmission line "bypass" block to keep the lines open at all times. In addition to that an added trans cooler up front and he hasn't had further issues. Hope that helps.

[@DirtLifestyle]

It definitely does! I always consider a cooler for towing but this would be a good idea for crawling aswell. 👍

[@PNW_Rodeo]

@@DirtLifestyle Nate, pinning that plunger in on the bypass block is very helpful in keeping the temps down before they get hot. You can find it inline with the trans lines under the passenger side. There's a plunger on the side with a tiny hole on either side of it, like a hydraulic timing belt tensioner. Push that plunger in and hold it while threading the cotter pin through to retain it. Love the videos and I'm glad I could provide some helpful info. 👍

[@rickwhitmire7933]

Is this only for an Automatic Trans? The cotter pin deal. I’ve seen my low oil pressure like come on, once in 70,000 miles. But I was at an extreme angle.

[@PNW_Rodeo]

Yeah it's for the transmission cooler bypass valve. It's s small block between both lines that is closed when the fluid temp is below a set temp (re-routes fluid back to transmission instead of cooler). When the fluid reaches temp the valve opens and allows the fluid to go to the cooler up front. Pinning it locks it open 100%.

[@edgarandreasyan521]

@@DirtLifestyle that light comes on because of the angle of the trucks front end up being vertical.

[@Erik_S]

There are hundreds, maybe thousands of Rubicon trail videos. This is by far, the best one I have ever seen. Actually no. It's the best KZbin video I've ever watched. Thank you.

[@DirtLifestyle]

Damn! Thank you very much!

[@perrymahnke886]

Life is Short, Amen Last year I turned 60, forced to go on disability at 57.5, I have had several severe health conditions for years & continue to get more as I age (my sister & brother passed in their 30s). Do not wait to do the things you want later, later is now. I hope when I do die, it's in a beautiful place like I see in your videos. I will probably never make it to the extreme trails you experience but I will be leaving Wisconsin in the winters & going to remote places in the southwest camping. Thank you for sharing all the wonderful footage.

[@rogieboy3162]

Thank you for that message at the end. It really really hit home.

[@DirtLifestyle]

I'm glad to hear it man! It wasn't lip service, I ment every word 👊

[@darrenobrien7667]

Don't apologize for talking numbers. As another builder / suspension nerd, I love to here it. I've always been fascinated by how there is no apparent "perfect" wheelbase or tire size. One obstacle the 110" wheelbase rig will absolutely idle up without any drama and the next its all f'd off and banging limiter followed by a stock tj on 33's idling through with open diffs laughing. It might be one of my favorite parts of wheeling. It seems like every setup has its place.

[@FlawedOffroad]

Nate not only was the video top notch but you once again have shown everyone that you are a top notch person.

[@DirtLifestyle]

Wow man thank you for the positive comment 🙏

[@SuburbanK2500]

Your ending really got me Nate. I'm lying in bed with a blood clot in my lung, I can't take the heat and humidity outside. So my 502 Suburban swap continues to sit and wait for me. I'm missing out on trail rides with my wife and daughter and the unknown of upcoming test dates and results is not leaving me in a great state of mind. 51 yrs old and I wish I had at times done more for myself and my family than always helping others. It felt right and good at the time, and even though I would never turn my back on someone in need if I was in a position to help, I'm lying here feeling like I short changed myself and my family. To anyone reading this, along theblines of Nate's closing remarks, if you're able now, get out with family and friends and run some trails and enjoy the time you have NOW, don't wait. Thanks for the video Nate.

[@DirtLifestyle]

Holy cow man. Hang in there and stay strong! I'm pulling for you!

[@ultra4suzukisamurai679]

After 25 years of thinking about doing the rubicon I finally did it last month. It was awesome! You are so right, you just have to get up and go do things before it’s too late.

[@Casey250]

Nice seeing the TacoSupreme out on the Rubicon. Great drone work!!

[@DirtLifestyle]

Thanks buddy 👊

[@DaddyJeepGarage]

The "nerding out" is the good stuff. It helps everyone learn things

[@leopnwdrt3508]

Great edit Nate. Grateful to have the opportunity to join you, sorry to crush the diesel filter, but it made for a better story!

[@RM_Garage]

I'm glad Shaun talked you into making the video. After watching this, I have to say it's a masterpiece. I think this will be your most well received video to date.

[@evenflowoverland]

This trip was unreal! So glad I got to be a part of this, and also get to re-live it through this video. Great to meet you Nate, you're a rock star! ⭐

[@kennymalikowski4524]

By far one of the best youtube videos I have seen. Thanks!

[@p4th0s_]

As I get older, and as well as my dad getting older, I can relate so much to your closing statement about wanting to visit so many places before it's to late.

[@matth4069]

Discovery 2 or bustttttttttt. I love the taco but the D2 is way more entertaining than just another jeep or toyota. I did have a laugh when you basically got the 3 amigos on the toyota though haha. Loved the video though and thank you for the content

[@protacodan4225]

Nice work everyone. Did the Rubicon last year with my 2017 Tacoma on 35’s had a blast. Happy trails

[@rickwhitmire7933]

I’ve learned the trick to soup bowl is turning passenger/right. Feels wrong, but it’s correct. Nothing beats waking up on the trail, already in low!!! Glad to see you picking up the trash, The Rubicon thanks you!! I’m gunna remember the zip tie melting trick. 👍 Even though it didn’t work… Life is short, enjoy it while your here!!🤘🤙💯🏁

[@Nolgore]

This video was standout amongst your others, not to shame the others, this one was just THAT special.

[@Just-the-Gameplay]

Drove this entire trail when I just turned 16. Most fun week ever. And the stars you can see out there. Best middle of the night piss ever.

[@lateralus4567]

Nate. This is your best one yet. I'm so happy to go along this trip with you and the fellas. Thanks for having us!

[@karmicforce01]

Ok, the plastic welding bit was outstanding. Nice job Nate and great ending words. As someone also in their middle years, the words hit home.

[@the_co_yeti]

Amen brother, life is short and you get one shot! Love the taco 🤙

[@4WDTrek]

That zip tie job works really well! I used the exact same trick when I was out in Wyoming. I blew the top of my plastic radiator on a previous rig. I melted a zip tie into it and drove it all the way back home that way in the heat of the summer. Good job making that thing work!

[@mikejohle3717]

Your message at the end really hits home, life is way to short, I lost my brother in 2019 and I’ve always wished I could just go wheeling with him one time

[@DirtLifestyle]

Very sorry for your loss man 🙏 I love my brother and couldn't imagine what that must be like.

[@samsanderson7159]

I completely agree Nate. Get out and live your life. So many of us, (myself included) get so wrapped up in day to day struggles and work, that life goes by and before you know it, it's gone. I'm going to be 51 this fall and it seems like just yesterday I was 25. It really is true that the older you get, the faster the years seem to go by. Thanks for the reminder to get out and live! I hope your message reaches many people. Great video and that zip tie fix was borderline genius! Keep living life Nate and bring us all the videos!

[@cbreced1]

Nice video and comments at the end. My wife and I were able to check the Rubicon off my bucket list last year. We're in our early 60's and along the lines of what you're saying at the end, we are now planning and making trips that we thought we'd do after retirement. But that's still a few years away and seems to be getting more distant with current situations. So we're doing them now. Cheers!

[@jk_wrangler13]

That's a good trail fix. At least he made it farther than he would have. Awesome video Nate. I hope you day I'll get to go down the Rubicon trail

[@DirtLifestyle]

Thank you!

[@scottbartlett4853]

I'm one of two Isuzu VehiCross' that have done the entire Rubicon trail. Not gonna lie, it was intense! I had doubts going through it but in the end (day 3) we were golden. No breakage just a heim joint repair got me through. What I remember most was the friendships that were made and forged along the way. Epic trip!

[@dirtbagoverland5904]

Loved the long-form. Excellent video; one of your best. The ending message is spot on!

[@DirtLifestyle]

Thank you!

You are the hidden gem on KZbin that I have been looking for Nate

[@justanotherjeep]

Awesome trip and great message at the end. These trips where you're challenged, and you have to pull together as a team are where lifetime friendships and memories are made. The rubicon is truly an amazing place, it's one of those things you don't understand until you experience it. Keep up the great work.

[@DirtLifestyle]

I completely agree 👍 this place is magic...

[@grandmothjohn4315]

Wonderful video Nate. One of your best and very Attenborough with your VO work. It took me three attempts to finish today (life and family interruptions), and you even got the Mrs to get excited about the Rubicon. Thank you.

[@DirtLifestyle]

Thank you! I'm honored

[@flatblackandy]

You are 100% correct, the rubicon is a magical place! I was there about a month ago and camped at buck island, and even though the bugs were absolutely terrible, I still had an amazing time!

Probably one of your best videos that you have ever made! Really enjoyed that.

[@josephridley7832]

Arron is the man! And a modest team player built in to his nature. Nice rigs all around. Very tricky and technical. Good job to all the crawlers navigating that!! Send more to watch please!! Thanks Nate!

[@freeidaho-videos]

22:30 in video: those faux bead-lock wheels look so good at the mall. One good thing about CO2 power tanks is they inflate fast. I have never understood 80K Jeeps without bead locks or lockers on hard trails. That tail/box mod on your Tacoma really makes the Gladiator look out of place... which they are. I have seen a few bob-tail Gladiators and they are pretty capable. Nice drone footage. Thank you, thank you, thank you for not using RAP music as your background. Amen to your encouragement to do it now. I'm at 72 and probably have 10 good years left where I can Jeep, ride motorcycles, shoot competitively, fabricate and do machining. Doing it someday, is the same as saying do it never.

Such breakdowns is why I choose to do the Rubicon with the Jamboree. Lost some freedom to do as wish on trail but pretty nice to know we had mechanics and helicopter support if rare parts and repairs needed.

[@jakeclarke7052]

Throughout the video you apologize about nerding out.... WHY?!?! that is why I watch! Because I love learning from you nerding out. You are a wealth of information and experience and you are my idol. Keep up the great work Nate!

[@jimmallery294]

Excellent video, thanks! What a great reminder at the end.

[@kshepthedrummer]

Problems, troubles, and breakdowns are half the fun (as long as its not catastrophic and/or injuries involved.) When things go wrong, it makes things exciting. It gives reason to stop, have fun, joking around with each other, work together, and overall just enjoy the experience. When things go perfectly smoothly, it seems like things go by too quick and it can be "boring" (relatively at least. Its never boring going on an adventure haha)

[@jonjalbert1922]

Great job on the video. And what you said makes you think of what you want in life, thanks for taking us along with you on the ride.🤙🤟✌

[@josephscricco7151]

This video was nothing short of a movie. Definitely inspiring a trip to the Rubicon for me. Keep up the great work!

[@pscruising5486]

For the peeps who didnt watch this vid to the end... and there are thousands of Ruby Trail vids, you missed the great words. "How many trips left?" Indeed sir. Thanks for reminding me. I am probably 20 years older than you and my wife and I live by that as best we can. Headed to Catalina Island on thursday. Too hot to Jeep here is AZ. Be well.

[@donb8608]

Great video Nate. I did the Rubicon a few years ago, 3 of us in 2 well built JKs. We ran the entire trail in one very long day. Maybe not the best way to do it, but it was our choice. We hit the trailhead very early and got to Tahoe very late. We are not campers so it was the way we wanted to do it. The only thing we bypassed was the soup bowl. Couple of thngs.....the good: Awesome trail, awesome views. A trail every off roader needs to do. The bad: The people on the trail. As I saw you do at least once, we picked up a LOT of trash. So much so that by Cadillac hill (you should have shown people the Cadillac off the trail) we no longer had room to haul any more. I have to say the people we ran into were not the friendliest people I have ever met. Its a different crowd than Moab or CO trails. We came across a Land Rover that was broken down. The guy was staying with the truck while his friends went to get parts. He was there 3 days already. But he knew if he left his truck, it would be stripped when he got back. We gave him food and water which he desperately needed. The worst episode was after Rubicon Springs we encountered 3 very old beat to hell pick up trucks. One was broke down on the trail. The 3 guys were drunk as shit and armed. We offered to help, which they refused. We then said we would just sneak past them, to which one of them, with a Glock proudly displayed in his waist band said "no, you will wait until we have this truck fixed and moved". Now there was plenty of room to go around, but they were drunk and probably high on meth. (that is meth country after all). It was an unfortunate experience but not all that rare on that trail. I read on Pirate that while we were there, a guy left his travel trailer at the trail head only to return days later and find several bullet holes in it. As he posted on line, how did they know if he was in it or not? That said, it is still a must do trail. Just go knowing that it attracts a rougher crowd than what you find in other wheeling areas. At least that is what we encountered. Could be we were just unlucky in that regard.

[@erikschutzman2402]

42 mins, that is a lot of content. Thank you Nate That stinks that the Tacoma is having issues like that. I want the Tacoma to be good to you. Thank you for sharing and being honest about the Tacoma's issues so far.

[@DirtLifestyle]

Thank you buddy 👊 I'm still hopeful that I can find the root cause of these issues

[@antoniomartin2229]

An AMAZING video of a BEAUTIFUL trail. What it revealed to me is that this is a young man’s activity with a budget BIG enough for an awesome build to tame an off-road adventure such as this. Your message at the end was GREAT but my truck is more for camping excursions than rock crawling and the fact that I’m 62 yrs. Old and I drive a Hummer H2 that’s 20 years old, which are both excuses but an awe-inspiring video just the same!!!

[@jackiejoe8930]

Love the ending, thanks for keeping it real.

[@offroadwizard1928]

Was an awesome time hanging out with everyone! It’s always nice when you meet some good people. Thanks Nate and Shaun for doing things like this. Honestly, it’s the best way to do a trail like this. A bunch of people who have never done it with a couple that have. After doing it though, I would prefer to take three days. It gives you a chance to really soak in being there. Then you can really relax and enjoy everything that’s there. From the wheeling, to the scenery, to the springs themselves. Definitely returning to do it again! P.S. Leo, let me know when you get that skid plate. We’ll go playing again!

[@jasonjohnson4214]

My uncle passed away in 2021, a few months after our last camping trip. I still can’t fully digest the idea. Who would’ve thought it would be our last. And he was in his 40’s. Now I go out as much as I can even alone when everyone is busy.

[@jurelle]

I've had this trail on my list for so long but this video makes me realize just the level of preparation mechanically, mentally and financially you need to have before tackling this trail with confidence. A regear, some slightly larger tires and maybe a little extra armor and my Tacoma should be ready within the next year and I'm going no matter what. Thanks for the amazing storytelling Nate!

[@Brood_Master]

I have to admit. Your closing statements got me a little teary eyed because I know exactly what you're talking about. I've been through that area hiking on the PCT many years ago as well as much of the high Sierras and Trinity Alps and more recently, the Cascades... The astonishing beauty of northern California and the Cascade range are some of the fondest memories of my life. At age 61 some of that hiking is getting a little tougher so I have been turning to off roading to be able to continue the adventuring that has brought me so much joy. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately... You can't off road to many of the places that you can on foot. Keep up the good work making great videos that inspire the rest of us...

[@mejkkg]
