EPIC JEEP WRANGLER TRANSFORMATION! Will it outdrive the Dirty 30?

[@Disnotandie]

As a fan from the us for years and a jeep owner, me being excited for these next videos is an understatement

[@v3rmonst3r1122]

That makes two of us!

[@CoffeemanCC]

Make it three!

[@Jeeps.offroad]

That's awesome

[@lunamaria1048]

Agreed! After being a stubborn Toyota loyalist for 12 years, two 5th gen 4Runners later, I am tired of the same thing, so recently bought a Gladiator and holy crap lol, even stock it is 100 x better off road than my heavily modded 4Runner! I knew they were better crawlers, but the difference is night and day!

[@NCMTNBOY]

Same!

[@DoetschOffRoad]

We are very excited to have partnered with these awesome guys and can't wait for all the episodes showing off our work on the Jeep!!

[@annnnonnymous]

Im glad you did, checking your stuff out for my Jeep.

[@4WD247]

Thanks for all your help legends! The Jeep is an absolute weapon! 🔥

[@jonc2914]

​@@harrywalker968ya jeeps are cool but are junk out of the box

[@ronladuke7235]

A lot of the serious off road trucks with 40inch tires have 8 stud axles from full size one ton trucks to reduce breakage! Real big tires increase stress on drive line and steering tremendously.

[@nyc8452]

As an Aussie living Stateside, I’m really excited for this. Love that you’ve picked a Jeep to go alongside the Dirty 30 and you’ve resisted overbuilding it - this is the comparison so many of us have wanted to see! This will be a great video that I think will highlight the different types of tracks and styles we have here in the U.S. and I think it will also give a lot of Aussies a healthy respect for Jeeps. I’m a Toyota (Landcruiser) guy through and through, but I’ve come to love Jeeps as well because they are built-for-purpose, insanely capable off-road, and there is a huge aftermarket. They’re getting overpriced (even moreso in Australia), but what isn’t these days?!😂

[@sand_ford_n_sun]

what the LC is to you guys, the Wrangler is to us.... for quite some time it was literally the only choice we had.

[@4WD247]

Cheers legend! We're keen to share the adventure. 🤙

[@paulcanning4702]

As an Aussie JK owner I am soooo stoked you have finally done a Jeep. Been waiting years for this with only the occasional Jeep appearing in an episode. Hanging hard for this boys. Thank you.

[@coolonpaper6381]

That is definitely a basic build as far as US Jeeps go, but it will do just fine on the trails. I also laughed at the duck in the dash. Y'all are definitely living the Jeep life

[@devondriscoll1703]

I’m glad to see you’ve built the Jeep “Auzzie style.” It will be interesting to see how your trip unfolds. I think you’ll come to appreciate that terrain really dictates the build and engineering choices in US off-roading. Rock crawling, mud bogging, desert racing, narrow forrest trails-to name a few terrains; the rigs for each can be vastly different. It looks like you’re going to be mostly rock crawling. Can you do it on stock axles, drivelines and 35’s? Yes. Can you do it better on one ton axles, heavy duty suspension and driveline mods and 40” tires? Yes. You’ll winch less, stress less and break less. I really like the Auzzie builds. I think they are great all-rounders. The fact that they have a lot of overland/camping focus is a reflection of the vast wildernesses in AU. It will be interesting to watch them perform here in the US!

[@XPureOutdoorsX]

As a massive fan of 4wd 24/7… I would love to say welcome to the states!!!! Have been watching you guys for years now and can’t believe you come over. Happy tracks and safe travels!!!! From your wheeling friends here in the states!!!!!!

[@DavidBaker-h9s]

Shaun and Graham, honored to have you as our guests! Seeing the Dirty 30 in the states, awesome! Love your channel!

[@Sunshine198803]

I've been a fan of this channel for about 5 years. So glad to see you in a jeep and sooooo glad to see the Dirty 30 on American trails. Have fun boys!!! I look forward to some awesome videos

[@googleuser2170]

Great, sensible build on the jeep. Everything you need, nothing you don't. That bumper, combined with 35's gives you a pretty sweet approach angle as well. Cant wait for all the videos of this adventure.

[@putnamehereholdmadoodle]

[@dluxx7378]

I can't tell you guys how fun it is to watch these episodes with you in the US. I'm sure you miss home, but we sure do enjoy having you here. Thanks for the content as always and am absolutely..frothing..waiting for your next video.

[@NobodyRL]

Y’all don’t even know how excited I am for this. From the US and been watching for a long time just waiting for this to finally happen 🔥🔥🔥

[@danielwatts9069]

I’m so pumped to have a jeep on the show! 🙌🏻 there is a reason that’s all they wheel over there and it will be very obvious to the Aussie die hard Toyota and Nissan fans why they do 🤙🏻

[@nealtreloar4347]

So awesome to see the Dirty30 in the USA and as Jeep owners in QLD awesome to see 4wd 24/7 doing a Jeep build!

[@4WD247]

It's been a long time coming!

[@paulcanning4702]

Yes, yes it has.

[@JBBunno]

Having owned a JK for 14 years I am keen to see how you guys go with it. Now that you actually have driven one in some tough tracks you will have some cred when discussing them.

[@AdmissionGaming]

Hi mate what do you boys in the us do with the dana 44 diffs? Just bent mine in the weekend thrasher and can't find a straight one near me considering a d60 swap.

[@charlesboetel1324]

Here in the states we sleeve a tube inside the front axle tubes, gusset the "C"s and gusset the housing with steel that bridges the center chunk. Or you can replace the housing with a stronger one, or go full 1 ton 60s etc. Stronger shafts and knuckkes ball joints etc. Are common and not too expensive. I run 37"s with just sleeves and c gussets, no problems yet.

[@themadpants781]

@@AdmissionGaming Weekend wheelers might order a beefed up axle housing, but if you are running big tires and do serious wheeling, a dana 60 is the way to go. If going the junkyard route, the dana 60 front from a Ford Super Duty 2005+ is the preferred choice, as with a bit of adapting, you can make the wheel speed sensors work etc. Otherwise, Dynatrac, currie, spicer all make bolt in D60's.

[@mails5054]

@@AdmissionGaming usually get an aftermarket one, which is really expensive, but a lot of people will truss them. You might to be able to get a shop to try to straighten it and then weld on a truss

[@charlesboetel1324]

I am a big fan of the show here in the states. I also have a 2013 jeep Rubicon 4 door 6 speed, similar to your build, but with a few more things beefed up. You are running the iconic tracks that I love, but our hard track get insane! Much more demanding than what you are running. That is why our builds are bigger! ❤ 4x4 24 7

[@vinceess4181]

Shauno and Graham just remember in the 30 to always keep the sidewalk beside you! Gas pedal on the outside. Helped me when I moved back over here from Oz and had to remember to go back to the right side of the road! Having a blast watching you fellas.

[@wernervandermerwe5339]

That's awesome. I can't wait to see the rest of the US episodes. Up the jeep ✌️

[@handbannana3610]

The Rubicon is definitely doable locked and on 35s. (little sluice is probably off the list this year though the massive snow tore it up pretty good) Part of the reason most jeeps you see are on 37s or 40s is the longer wheelbase of the four door jeeps. The long wheelbase is nice for climbing obstacles but the breakover angle is terrible on smaller tires. Wheeling in the Sierra Nevada Mountains is actually one of the places where the agility of a shorter wheelbase is kind of nice.

[@katty6474]

As a owner of a Wrangler and Gladiator I am absolutely loving those mods!!! Can't wait to see it on the tracks 😄

[@genoquichocho3492]

I've been watching this channel for over 7 years. I'm so pumped they got a chance to take the 30 across the big pond.

[@007Knightjp]

Can't wait for the next episode. You guys are masters at keeping the suspense with these shows.

Yes, you will need two forms of ID. And it all goes well till it doesn't, and Doesn't happens pretty quick. Thanks for coming to the US.

[@Wildmavericks]

I've had a jeep for wrangler for years and it's a love hate relationship. It's so good seeing one on 4wd 24/7. They do have their down falls but, the most fun cars I've ever had.

[@snapped4433]

As an Aussie viewer sending your car to America for 4 wheel driveing is insane to me but I guess your comfortable in it and know what it can do hope that she makes it safely on her trips. Wish you and the team the best!

[@member369240sx]

One of my jeeps on 33's and other on 37's its a matter of picking a line with the different sizes. Glad to see you all finally get a jeep to wheel. And much more to see you wheel in USA

[@mitchwest6453]

Thanks for stopping by the US and enjoying some of the reasons we love this country. Hope we were hospitable enough for ya!

[@4WD247]

The crew had a great time!

[@allgoodjd]

I can't wait for this series to get underway. Your videos are what sparked me to get offroading and camping. Now I've traveled across the US multiple times and done all but 3 of Jeep's BOH trails. These include many of the trails you're about to do. Can't wait to see the Aussie's on America's most beautiful trails.

[@apexslider1]

Can’t wait to see this series unfold. Also glad a 10yr old Jeep was chosen for the build.

[@motivatedcb5837]

Yes huge fan from the US!! Also love the Jeep!!

Good to see a Jeep on the channel finally. I’m a fan from the US so I’m really looking forward to this series!

Awesome video as always 4WD 24/7 Crew. Shawn and Graham welcome to the USA can't wait to see you two tackle the awesome trails we have Aussie style.

[@christopherhusta9915]

I fully expected that you would trailer the 30. But the fact y’all did all the paperwork and got it registered to drive on the road is epic

[@louislynge]

I'm frothin like a beach after a nice storm for this series. So glad you finally got a Jeep and can't see how it compares to the Dirty 30.

[@bingus892]

Jeeps can only dream of being a LC

[@user-zimikIN]

Always in love with your show guys. Can't wait to see the full episode. And I have a question for Shaun. How many people from the US recognize the Dirty 30 while driving down the highways or the street?

[@bajasummit6209]

As an American who wheels an engine swapped 80 series on a 2 inch and 35’s I can almost guarantee you’ll be impressed with that Jeep and how far it’ll make it. If I had to guess the biggest failing WILL be the break over angle. Big rocks, small lift and smaller tires means you just don’t have that angle. So either you smack it hard and pin the throttle or you go around

[@TheImmortalsCa]

The Jeep will be a weapon even on 35s. Really looking forward to it.

[@Wiradjuri217]

You can really see their excitement, I would be too. I'd love to take my car overseas and do camping

[@JirafaWood]

I recognized some of those freeway shots in the beginning of the video. It would've been unreal if we ran into each other. Welcome to the US!

[@JnDTrails]

as a Isuzu Mux and Jeep Wrangler owner. This is one of the best esp ever and excited to see all the USA vids. Keep up the good work peeps

All I need now is for you guys to get stuck and have to make a call to Matt. The Dirty 30 and the Morrvair in one video. OMG! PLEASE MAKE IT SO.

[@codycopeland7527]

Anybody else lol when he called the 3.6l a "big block'. Such awesome jeep, I got so excited when you revealed it is in fact a manual and you put a purpose built aftermarket clutch in. I.M.O. a manual is the way to go, but many people make the mistake of putting bigger tires on and hitting the trails with stock clutch. I love the "do it right the first time" attitude that you'll take with your builds.

I'm just excited to see you guys with a Jeep! A 4" lift is pretty high on a JK, you can easily run 35s on a 2.5" lift. The JK is only unreliable if you don't maintain it, it has a lot of "lifetime" components from the factory that just wear out fast if you wheel it hard or modify. I can't wait to see this series.
