Snow wheeling in a blizzard on tracks. Snapped my U-joint!

Extreme winter weather advisory in effect and we are headed to the mountains and Olallie lake for some fresh powder and breathtaking scenery.

[@crazybob97able]

Unreal!!!! Up until the break it looked like a lot of fun!

Best video yet..thanks I enjoyed it

Thanks for taking us along

Love that much snow, must be fun on snowmobiles

[@SeanFillner]

You hang out in the same area we do. I had a Subaru BAJASTI that had mattracks for about 3 years. I am now doing a restomod on a thiokol spryte and will be testing that build in the same area. We also love the little john snow park as it has an easy entrance to fs4420. Great areas to explore in the snow for sure....

[@thecollector3525]

Wow this is the most extreme snow off-roading on the net.. you did it in a Cherokee too, very nice indeed 👍

[@jessepitt]

I lived in Gresham/Troutdale fifteen years ago and had a sweet XJ that I wheeled all over the Mt. Hood area. The Clacamas river has tons of great roads off it. I live in central Oregon now.

@@nofyfb123 damn, that sucks, I would park the shitty JK you must be referring to🤣. For a top 10 die hard vehicle of all time, the XJ, ( says car and driver not me) for a rig that the newest is 20 years old already I would suggest you start replacing TPS, IAC, MAF, and a CPS and of course new plugs wire rotor cap, maybe also a fluid dump and refill also a water pump and new thermostat and that Jeep will still be king, come 2041. This is all only if you know one iota about rigs and how they operate.

[@nofyfb123]

@@SarahSmith-hd8kd I have never seen a jeepie - regardless of age - without a laundry list of problems, and I've seen A LOT of them. So I am not buying the notion that a certain year was good, and a certain - bad. It's either junk or not. And car and driver is hardly a legitimate publication - their "reviews" depend on the amount of contribution made by the company.

[@SarahSmith-hd8kd]

@@nofyfb123 Lol, you can talk out your butt all day long, the argument is done! Through the 💯 fact not opinion but obviousl fact, the fact there is LITERALLY millions of XJ'S on the road STILL, doesn't slap in the face with reality to you? I've owned more vehicles then most have dreamed of and I can buy fix a supposedly broken vehicle that really, some guy was to limp wristed or maybe just uneducated and spineless to do, and in a day or two post up and sell! So please don't attempt (emphasis on attempt) throw the other 💩 models and the 2007 and up 💩 in with Legendarily known icons, the smell of 💩 being spewed offends those with the sense anfld nose to smell the bullshit. Lol it is on die hard models of all time, in no less then 4-10 well world renowned publication's. As far as anything else is concerned, you tell me what great vehicle you own, then I will get back to you with the laundry list crap that will go wrong, 100% so after it is over 20 years old, IF it was on the road still.🤐

Отлично, хороший снегопад сыпануло. Жаль что не удалось поговорить да поздароваться, т.к. были в одном месте в одно время возле озера. Я как раз на Арго отъезжал, вы с нашими ребятами на Ниссане встретились. Удачи с ремонтом.

[@SarahSmith-hd8kd]

I just bought front 4340 CM shafts and haven't installed yet was contemplating upgrading even more to the same CM just CV style especially after seeing this. My questions are were those CM shafts or regular stock and should I take the Yukon ones I bought back for CV?

[@maxb9135]

Those are CM shafts. When I bought the Jeep they were in there, can’t be for sure how much use and abuse they have seen before I got it. The axel itself did not break, my u joint snapped and because of the location and conditions I had drive it off of the trail like that in the process damaging my axel shaft gears (still didn’t break).

[@timforbrook9169]

Just wondering how fast can you go with the tracks?

[@maxb9135]

Not sure, I guess it would depend on the conditions. The speedometer does not display correctly when the tracks are on because the gear ration is thrown way off

[@robh5789]

Used pair for 5k… but they typically run way more

What’s all done to the 4Runner? Does it have lockers? Lifted? Solid axle swap?

where can I purchase the tracks , and are they expensive also how are they mounted ? this would be a great video for you to make , I'm sure that others are interested as well

[@maxb9135]

Those were bought used on Craigslist. There are different brands selling tracks online. They can get very expensive. Each brand could mount differently. These are all bolt on

You definitely want to deflate in the snow. Deflate range is 3-15psi. But you have to factor in type and size of tire/conditions/ bead locks/ etc
