Wait I think I missed something did you go from Jeep to Bronco?? And if you did how Is that going ??? Thanks for all the great videos

[@chrishulett4370]

I have been subscribed to your channel for a while mow, and the one fact I can't get over is how "cinematic" your videos feel. Your editing and videos feel like I am watching a movie about the places you visit. I watch a lot of off road channels and I don't think ANY of them have the feel of your videos. Keep up the great work and stay EPIC!

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Thank you!

[@jackd2083]

The quality of the videos is at the top of the game. The scenery is almost always amazing world class views. Too bad about the quality of the driving!! 😂 respect from Alberta

I love seeing the TJ in this group. They are easy to do a mild build on and extremely capable. Most Problems and issues are known and have well engineered solutions.

[@BruceCookfmx]

LJ so even better 😃👍🏻

[@DennyOfTheAlpine]

Thanks for the LJ love. Lots more to come

[@maineexport13]

TJs are my favorite of all the Wranglers (possible exception would be an old school Scrambler... but that's not technically a Wrangler, so probably doesn't count). Anyway... I think the TJ takes the cake. First gen of the coil springs on all four corners, they're super easy to work on, parts and aftermarket upgrades are plentiful and cheap. It doesn't take much to build an incredibly good off-roader for super cheap. A 3" to 6" lift, lockers, and 33" to 35" M/T tires, and you're good to go over most anything out there. No, it's not going to be competing against purpose-built crazy expensive rock crawling rear-steer buggies, but it'll be a daily driver you can wheel in all but the most extreme of what mother nature has to offer up!

[@DennisMcCracken]

I love watching TJs hang with newer 4x4s. Another great video Sean

[@paulchristiansen7014]

I got off the edge of a trail on a shelf road much like that one a couple of years back. We were lucky to not have rolled our Jeep. Took about an hour, lots of patience, and help from 2 other Jeeps with winches to get back onto the trail. Always appreciate your content.

[@benstairs4675]

I have to wait till I finish my truck build but I would love the opportunity to go wheeling with you guys. Your adventures are exactly what I had in mind when planning my build. Just a quick description of my build, 93 Chevy Silverado single cab short box, F350 solid axle swap (e locker rear) WFO conversion kit, which translates into a 7" lift on 37's, LS+ swap. I consider it to be kind of a baseline until the build grows but I promise it will be quite capable as is. I look forward to following your adventures through the winter as I get my truck sorted out.

[@CarswithNash]

Glad you didn't tumble down the hill, looks like you were bloody close! That little log cabin at the end is beyond cool.😍

[@Jc-bo1uu]

I just got Toyo R/T trail on my 3500HD single rear wheel, four-wheel-drive diesel track and I really like them. Really good traction in mud, dirt, and surprisingly good traction on wet roads, and no hydroplaning with them either. I drive through about 6 to 8 inches of standing water at 45 to 50 MPR. For a tire that has virtually no sipping on it they get surprisingly really good traction. And there are a very comfortable tire as well. I was told that the Toyo R/T Trails have A extra thick sidewall and reinforced carcass. so it gives you approximately 85% of the same durability you would get out of a mud tire but you get the comfort of a two ply sidewall. so far I am super impressed with this tire on my truck. And you guys did not mention that the Toyo R/T trial has a 45,000 mile treadwear warranty.

That’s great! I didn’t know that but I’m not trying to sell them, just give my opinion on them :)

Great ep guys. The ridge track was amazing. Wish I was there. And the shelf road had me tightening a few muscles with you. I used to run Firestone Firehawk RTs (2 sets) on my HiLux (Aussie Tacoma) and they were awesome all-rounders with great mileage and grip. Unfortunately they didn't make them in the size of my next 4x4 and we parted ways.

[@michaelharmon551]

Greetings Shaun. On my 2015 Ram 1500 Express Cab 4x4 I have and I can not spell it right but I have Faulken Rubitrex All Terain tires. They are 20 inch but I can not remember the rest of it but these tires are not too bad. They are a heavy tire and I can tell the are heavy because they reduce my speed only a very little bit if that makes sense and reduced my fuel mileage again a very little bit but they have a rather deep aggressive deep tread and really hold better than I thought. I am anxious to see how well they perform in snow if we get any here. These tires are what I wanted and personally I think I made a decent choice. I think these tires also will do well when going on some rough half of a lane forestry roads here in North West North Carolina. I still enjoy all your videos especially this one. You have talent in putting out these videos which are professional quality. Keep it safe, have fun and enjoy what you do. And I hope I spelled your name right.

Well I was excited to see Bronco content again but geez it’s getting dumped on in these comments. Seems to do alright but maybe just needs a few more mods. Hope you don’t give up on it.

[@raqball]

Fanboy comments from people who probably have mall crawlers and never off-road. The Bronco is a fine off-road vehicle just as capable as Jeeps are. The fanboy comments are entertaining at least. The Bronco in this video also has something those Jeeps don't. A roof top tent that adds height and weight where you don't want it on a trail like this. Mall crawlers would not understand this. Meh, fanboys crack me up!

20:30 agree with you that IFS sure fails there. Not enough down travel on those systems. Only one I ever liked was the early 80's Bronco and F150/some F250 systems. They had opposite side pivots and did have good travel. But your Bronco is wider than the Jeeps so that should offset some of the issue. Glad you all got out safe though.

Someone commented below that this isn't real overlanding. I agree that the definition of overlanding from when it originally came on the scene is different but for me overlanding, weekend warrior, jeep camping, jeep exploring, it's all part of the adventure, and when a day of exploring takes you to an epic place like this who cares what it's called. I've commented a dozen times on your videos. AWESOME everything period!!! Oh, and your buddy with hand control JK is also very inspiring. I recall him from one of your past videos. Talk about not letting anything hold you back. Seriously, as epic as your videos are, you should do a feature about him and his travels. Recall that CHP in Cali that commented on how your inspired him on while he was in a hospital bed. Take that inspiration to another level. Great work once again buddy. God Bless you and your family.

The Toyo Open Country R/T tires are fantastic when they are brand new but wear out very quickly and become run of the mill tires at that point...
