I BROKE MY DODGE RAM TRX BY DRIFTING IT IN SNOW

[@talibmohammed9797]

Amazing video buddy, we have seen so many TRX having the same transfer case issue here in Liwa desert and had to tow them out. The reason for that is leaving the car in 4wd auto while driving in the sand or in your case snow, what the car does in that case is constantly change from 4H to 4L which literally cooks the transfer case until it's completely destroyed. The solution for this is to put the car in 4H when driving on rough surfaces like sand or snow so it doesn't cook the transfer case, bottom line just never leave it in 4wd auto when offroading that's the reason for this. Wish you all the best buddy take care and keep making such cool content

[@mikebromelow8514]

What you just said is complete bullshit buddy! The truck does NOT shift between 4 high and 4 low!!! 4 wheel auto is completely safe to use any time. The TRX is ALWAYS in 4 auto unless the driver puts it into 4 high or 4 low and putting it into 4 low requires putting the truck into neutral first. Jesus man.

[@kris18shadow]

That's invaluable info. Thanks for sharing!

[@lutzgehtdichnichtsan6543]

die kupplung im transfercase hat wahrscheinlich vorspannung und durch das RWD modul nutzten sich die kupplungsscheiben stark ab, weil die vorderräder permanent eine andere drehzahl als die hinterräder haben

[@stocki_esy625]

maschinenbau student hier. wär auch meine vermutung. auch wenn die kupplung offen ist, reiben die beläge leicht. Man kann alles so auslegen, dass das Getriebe das mit macht. Dodge hat sich dafür entschieden das Getriebe nicht darauf auszulegen, und deswegen den Allrad permanent gemacht. Wenn man dann halt viel RWD Fährt mit dem modul, ist die Beanspruchung halt zu hoch. Würd also sagen, die Kupplung ist nicht durch das im Schnee fahren kaputt geworden, sondern war davor schon mehr oder weniger am Ende ihres Lebens

[@fabi_v6746]

Kenne ich auch so. Wenn zu viel im RWD mit hohen Drehzahldifferenzen gefahren wird wie beim driften dann Überhitzt der Antrieb an der Kupplung. Wird dazu führen das die Kupplungen verschleißen oder verglasen und dann im AWD Modus durch rutschen bis sie überhitzen. Klar dass das Steuergerät dann auf macht. Für Offroad und Schnee ist die Kupplung wahrscheinlich hin

[@gen1c8rs88]

What about being worn out from dry road surface doughnuts(burn outs) and drifting, as well as not replacing the differental fliud soon enough given the elevated level of stress. Also maybe a cooler, circulation pump, filter and fluid upgrade is needed.

[@Kytes93]

despite that the car in the front was fine. I think it had defect pump and couldn't press the clutches properly, resulting in fast wornout

[@malin01s47]

[@24_lollo10]

You should take a trip to sweden and make an event with old volvos to drift in the snow while its still here in the entire country. Old volvo + snow = perfect match! Love the vids btw keep it up!

[@mrtundra3157]

You guys are actually driving the sh!t out of it very impressive I would be concerned about body damage you probably already know this but drop tire pressure a bit helps a lot!

[@schaefchen]

Im used to it lol

[@stocki_esy625]

Maschinenbau Student hier. Bin relativ sicher, dass das Getriebe durch das RWD Modul schon vorm Schnee mehr oder weniger am Ende war. Die Kupplungen sind nicht darauf ausgelegt so hohe Drehzahl differenzen auszugleichen, welche beim RWD driften eben auftreten. (weswegen dodge ja auch keinen RWD Modus anbietet) Im Schnee, das war nur der Todesstoß (niedrige Geschwindigkeit, damit hohes Drehmoment) Vielleicht gibts die Möglichkeit die Halbachsen vorne, oder die Kardan nach vorne auszubauen, wenn du RWD fahren willst, damit die Kupplungen nicht wieder wegbrennen. Mega Video wie Immer! Lg. aus NÖ

[@schaefchen]

Hab vorne die halbachsen ausgebaut gehabt im sommer :)

[@stocki_esy625]

@@schaefchen kommt jetzt auf den genauen aufbau vom getriebe an. Kann auch sein, dass dadurch die kupplung schon überlastet war. Jedenfalls war die situation im schnee ned des grundliegende problem

[@CatchMeOffroad]

Schaefchen the reason your transfer case went out is due to the Tazer, I highly recommend removing it from now on. The TRX transfer case clutches are not designed to send 100% of power to the rear wheels, but the Tazer tries overriding this and you end up with still 5-10% clutch contact and this burns up the clutch pack. This won't happen in a stock TRX without Tazer. I speak from experience, as I had the same issue in my TRX with Tazer RWD mode. The new transfer case has been 100% good without the Tazer installed.

[@schaefchen]

Thanks you man!

[@MennoProductions]

If you have more tire wear on the rear form drifting and then engage the AWD system, the transfer case has to compensate more which introduces more heat and wear. Hence why you have 4 off the same tire sises on AWD cars :)

[@PBRatLord]

Not only that, but donuts on full lock with the locker engaged is literally just asking to break stuff lol. I know built four-by systems that would puke their guts if there was even a bit more traction there.

[@tallll70]

@@PBRatLord The transfer case has wet clutch 4 Auto for that besides 4H 4L and 2wd, assuming it was in Auto... Also they had some defected Transfer Cases with spring causing binding and overheating which this could have been one of them

To fix the lack of weigth in the back you should add something to the bed, a couple bags of sand or watever you have to weigh it wodn a little wich will help a lot with traction.

So krass die zwei Urzeit Apex Predator im Schnee zu sehen! So unterhaltsam es auch ist, wenn was kaputt geht, die Videos sind auch so schon krass genug, da muss nix kaputt gehen!!!! (Bitte Universum, ich möchte kein React Schäfchen lul) Könnte das RWD Modul etwas damit zu tun haben, dass sich das Teil vorne so torpediert hat? Also dass es die ganze Zeit Schaden genommen hat und halt jetzt den Geist aufgegeben hat? Kein Plan wie das Modul funktioniert, aber ist halt so mein Gedankengang. Nicht Originals Modul um mit dem AWD System zu spielen. AWD System macht Probleme. Modul? Ich hoffe die Teile kommen bald, freue mich auf Teil 2!

If it starts working normally maybe i think about giving it more power lol

[@5ShotProductions]

@@schaefchen 🥴 But this is one thing I do not understand: This truck probably was tested really tough in the States but I assume, they never tested this car in snowy conditions. Cause what you did with your TRX was pretty much nothing, don’t get me wrong. Of course you had a lot of fun with it but holy smokes, this car was built to have fun with. I did similar things in the late 90s with my 1994 V20 Mitsubishi Pajero 2500TD and this car worked properly from the beginning till I had enough of goofing around. Has your dealer submitted a goodwill request?? Best wishes, Philipp

[@coffelt683]

A guy previously commented that in these trucks, when they are in 4wd auto mode, switch between 4hi and 4low constantly which burns the transfer case out faster. I imagine in snow it constantly switches even more than on dirt. So setting it to 4hi should solve the issue which makes sense. @@5ShotProductions
