[@damienmorris2903]

Your videos are amazing. You are naturals at this. The unfortunate thing about the Holland Track is that it's not closed over winter or when it's wet because wheel ruts created in wet conditions damage the track and create an obstacle course which spoils what meant to be a nice drive.

I first did the Holland Track nearly 30 yrs ago with a bloke called Dobbie Graham (a farmer and part time gold prospector from East Hyden. It really was a goat track back then - very hard to distinguish the overgrown track from surrounding bush. I went back about 8yrs ago and at that point it was almost a major highway (albeit a very rough) for most of its length, by comparison. I’ve been up it another two times since then and it has appeared to become more and more used each time I visit - which kind of takes the shine off the trip. It’s still an experience I would encourage people to see for themselves but for me it holds memories of bashing through the bush and taking soil samples, staking tyres, getting bogged and doing recoveries with a shovel, an axe and a kangaroo jack while working for a gold exploration company. No fancy fat tyres, sat phones, winches or diff locks.

[@elnick.adventures]

Wow what memories you have of this track! Thats soooo cool! Thanks so much for sharing (:

[@MrGundawindy]

It's not the size of the stick that matters, but the depth of the hole you're dipping. 😜 What a wild track!!

Gday, always look forward to watching your weekly adventures. Picked up one of your ELNICK Adventures hats and have worn it out and about already. Got a sticker for the car as well to help spread the word. Ordering from your website was easy peasy and delivery was fairly quick too. Once again, Suzi has proven her worth on another tough tested track. Isuzu Aust should be able to help you out with any spare parts to make sure the heated mirrors keep working as they should considering these amazing live product evaluations you continue to demonstrate to us all. :) Keep up the great entertaining footage of your wonderful families adventures. Cheers.

Oh that’s great feedback! Thanks so much for purchasing from our website and supporting our adventures! (: we really appreciate it🤘

[@contributor7219]

Our Canter is the same generation. That junction box at the front is the main cab to chassis connection, and it's in that location to allow the cab to be tilted for servicing. It's a good idea to seal them if planning lots of very deep water crossings. You can actually pop the grille off to get to it more easily if needed - especially on the crew cabs where tilting the cab is much more difficult. The other thing right at the front that can stop them dead in water is the drive motor for the fuel cut cable. Again, easy enough to get to for a bit of judicious waterproofing. Great fun seeing the two trucks together and we're looking forward to the next journey.

[@elnick.adventures]

The canter is a weapon! It just glides through the tracks , such a great truck! Thanks for that! I’ll pass this info on to our mate Richard 🤘

[@christophermaric5373]

@contributor7219 what does that drive motor fuel cut cable look like? I have same gen canter and would be good to seal these items up

[@contributor7219]

@@christophermaric5373 If fitted to your particular vehicle, the drive motor casing (which is the bit that needs sealing) will be mounted above the LHS chassis rail pretty much directly under the front passenger's footwell. If you have a single cab truck, tilt the cab and you can't miss it. If you have the 'crew cab' it's easiest to get to by removing the plastic mudguard liners on the LHS. The easiest way to waterproof it I've found is with a heavy duty plastic bag placed over the whole unit. Just make sure openings in the bag are completely sealed otherwise any water that does get into the bag won't dry out and will form condensation - the last thing you need. The other option is to carefully use sealant around the mating surfaces of the casing halves. Hope this helps.

[@peterbougoure5356]

Nick, you need to turn left and right when in sticky mud to get the side biters on the tyres working to get traction. It also helps when spinning the tyres to clear the mud.

Did the Holland track a couple of years ago, five weeks after a cyclone went through! On my own, in an old 2008 Ford Ranger dual cab. I went north to south and managed to do 130km under my belt before the first night camp. The Ranger did very well and probably one of the best camps I have ever have. I did it solo though.

[@elnick.adventures]

Cant believe the flack you guys are copping for this video... I see nothing wrong with what you guys have done. Especially when over the last month ive seen more damaged caused from dual cab utes skull dragging the rear diff through tracks or wheel spinning in ruts digging themselves in. Maybe the tracks a little too wet but if it was dry all you would hear about is how much dust you create, but i suppose thats the joys of being on KZbin! I couldnt do it.😅 Safe travels guys. 👍

Well we were very surprised to hear Nick saying he was over the 4WDriving for a while, dam,age is always a concern on those sort of tracks. Nick I'm interested to know what you do with the join in the snorkel at around bullbar height, do you lather up the seal with grease cos I have looked at mine and I reckon it's really susceptible to water ingress but anyhow you survived which is the main thing. Elenya we just love the way you are so calm and collected just standing there filming with the muddy water just running in over the top of your boots. 🥵🥵 see you next week.❤❤

We’ve been following your adventures for some time now and were a little disappointed by this video. I don’t think you should have been on that track as you’re just causing heaps of damage. We are full time travellers ourselves and also have a 4WD truck, sure you can go lots of places but you should be asking yourself, should I? Nothing worse than driving along a road that has been destroyed because someone has driven it in the wet and destroyed it. As “supposed” role models for others maybe you guys need to show some better judgement
