Stuck out the bush after the winch rope snapped! Broken Bago State Forest 4wd Trip Australia

[@briandantana8470]

This is why you always bring a shovel! Dig out rocks and gravel from the bank on the right, fill the rut behind the wheel, then tracks on top to build a ramp. Pops you up and gives you some clearance on the way back out! Great ep!

[@timsank]

Awesome content. And I love the fact you're spending time with your dad.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate!

[@stephenlatimer1428]

really gud to c there was no rip shit tear bust in the recovery. patients is a virtue which adds up to no damage on the vehicle. gud to c ur dad enjoying the 4x4ing.

[@TylerThompson90]

Cheers mate

[@dean070880]

That must be the most epic place I've ever seen to sit and enjoy a fire 👌

[@TylerThompson90]

Sure was mate!

[@stevekeenes4030]

Prime example of why you should stand clear when on the winch !! Great episode.

[@TylerThompson90]

without a doubt mate!

[@weldmachine]

@@TylerThompson90 A bit of a strange one on this comment ? It's showing it as 2 weeks ago ??

[@goldumb]

@@weldmachine I think it’s from patreon

[@weldmachine]

@@goldumb Yes that does make sense. Patreon viewers get to watch videos earlier. I remember now. most channels offer this as reward for becoming a member. Thanks for letting me know.

[@DirtDownUnder]

Awesome video, thanks! Looks like the angle of the winch rope was wrong as it was pulling against the rut and on the edge of the fairlead. Unlucky.

[@TylerThompson90]

Yeah saw that once I was watching back the footage and agree, I think it would of broke anyway though, it had only been loading up a couple of seconds when it snapped, I've got the same rope and had it on similar angles and under big loads with the car not moving

[@stevenb9844]

Dad's certainly not afraid of a little bush pinstripes, bloody good show me old boy🤟🤟

[@JamieBroughton70]

Happy days. Especially with your old man.👍👍

[@DailyGrindAus]

Great episode - lucky you were walking distance from home otherwise you might have been cactus! You are lucky to live in such a beautiful area, I can see why it inspired you to take up 4wd'ing.

[@TylerThompson90]

For sure mate!

[@markfarnell183]

Lovely work. Nice paced father and son hanging out with a perfect payoff and good 4wd workout

[@timmoss1481]

Hell yeah mate once your old man gets his locker you blokes will be unstoppable

[@TylerThompson90]

Yep getting one in this week mate

[@timmoss1481]

Oh sweet that’s will make so many of your followers happy and stop the questions 😂🤣 I tell you wat you miss one when I don’t have it. My compressor is out at the moment under warranty and the last trip I did there where a couple of time I wish I could just flick that switch

[@tmemy4wd]

What a great day out, things go wrong but just adds to the adventure!!

[@TylerThompson90]

Yep for sure!

[@mickusms700]

Great video! Father son 4WD/camping, truly inspirational and I hope to mirror that with my son one day :)

[@crazyjestor435]

Great episode, good to see I'm not the only one getting stuck out on local tracks

[@stevehall8530]

great one. would be good to see more content with your dad.

[@DanCabban]

Good one mate. Your so lucky you can have these adventures with your dad.

[@ShazBookOwl]

Great video! You guys rock! I like the way you just stay calm under pressure and just think it out, and get the job done. Thanks for sharing. Cheers

[@stanyoung9546]

Hey great video new subscriber from new Zealand

[@AdventuringPals]

Great video mate. Lucky you with a backyard like that.

[@michaelbednarz7835]

Looks like the back way I took to get to the bluff the first time I went up there. Before I knew there was a proper road 😂 great stuff mate

[@FlatBrokeAdventures]

Your local area looks awesome mate. This goes to show how valuable 2 sets of traction boards are and why out should go out in pairs. I need to get a winch on my car as every time I go out alone I'm always nervous on which track or obstacle I take

[@FJUH]

Mate, I was the same, purchased an Ironman 9500 after seeing it work reliably with Tyler. Only used it once so far but for me it’s more a psychological thing, being confident in taking the tracks/ bog holes you weren’t before.

[@FlatBrokeAdventures]

@@FJUH Yeah it's on my wish list atm due to lack of money. I still need to get bull bar or maybe get a custom made winch cradle and cut the centre out of my bumper.

[@geoffcasson8024]

Such a lovely part of the world......lucky you. 👍👍👍

[@TylerThompson90]

Sure is!

[@jereme2008]

Epic day out with your dad 😁

[@braydenclark5828]

Another great video tyler as usual out done ya self liked before I even hit the play button keep them coming mate👌

[@TylerThompson90]

Appreciate it mate

[@oot1960]

Gday Tyler, bugger eh. Luckily only a 30min walk home! We did the 30 river crossing track over Easter. Creek level was high, up to 800mm in depth on some crossings. Awesome trip incl Collumbatti and Mungay Mt. We have found that we loved E4 doing the river crossings with so many boulders in the Creek. Looks like not many people do the full length of the track. Thanks.

[@craigabbott1953]

Looks awsome great vid pal

[@TylerThompson90]

Glad you enjoyed it mate

[@jhtapping]

Glorious spot

[@Robert-cu9bm]

You can splice dynema back together.

[@johncitizen5377]

most of the roads are closed in this area because of the floods. Entire sections of the road washed away down to the bedrock. I've ditched the 4WD and started hiking a lot more. Enjoy it more too.

[@dsw9670]

What a great short informative video👍🏼

Great father and son team just like my son and I now just got to go home now and try and hide it from the mother and say that damage has always been there.

[@TylerThompson90]

Haha thanks mate

[@jamesmazurstudios]

Buy a FID for $40 and fix your winch rope by join both ends. It takes 10 minutes and you are good to go. Practice using the FID at home and be ready for use on the trail. Great vid.

[@douglasyong6939]

Enjoying your vids. Anyway have you covered spares & repairs for the D23 when going on trips. Cheers

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate, appreciate it!

[@OZVoight]

Thought Bago Bluff NP was still closed.

[@Handleyman]

Those new muddies did a pretty good job all things considered.

[@einfelder8262]

Part of my recovery kit is a new winch rope........

[@TylerThompson90]

Yeah I might need to carry one too haha

[@mikehzz9848]

I thought it was Bago down near the Snowy Mountains. That's a fair walk home from there. 😅

[@TylerThompson90]

Yeah this is Broken Bago state forest haha, thankfully not that far away

[@louiskudlak2241]

Fun video buddy, that view blew me away 🔝🏕 pays to b safety conscious around winches, lov my I drive throttle controller also, like a new 4wd, certainly a lot of flood damage 😢😢😢

[@TylerThompson90]

Cheers mate! Yep dad loves his

[@mattwilson5920]

Where is the lookout/campspot in Bago Bluff? Looks like an unreal spot.

[@TylerThompson90]

Rollover road mate

[@mattwilson5920]

Love your work, keep it up 🤙

[@1pkcosmo]

Good vid. Just I must say the winch was pulling in the wrong direction which is why it broke. Also you need to put a dampener in your kit.

[@shalininaicker]

You were so lucky to be walking distance from home.

[@steiny3353]

Another great video mate. I've got the throttle controller on my LTZ and I love it. it feels like a real weapon in U-9, but I have found myself leaving it in auto. Makes it a much more pleasurable vehicle to drive in your day to day traveling. Did that adventure destroy those max trax's ? some horrible cracking noises coming out of them.lol

[@TylerThompson90]

Nope they were all good mate, no damage

[@4west7]

That mighty mane! Will it ever get a trim? It's fully bush proof 👌

[@thomasbirks]

Great episode as always. I've had the iDrive on my 2013 Triton for a few years now. This model really has a lot of throttle lag, so it helps a lot. I love it around town but I always turn it off for 4wding. I find that even the E modes are too responsive and risky for certain situations. Also, where are the bloopers? Hahah

[@TylerThompson90]

Yeah no bloopers this video haha. I find the e modes makes the throttle a heap less responsive on the nav but I guess they behave differently on different 4wds . Around town I normally leave it on automatic

[@thomasbirks]

@@TylerThompson90 I guess the getting stuck and walking home was the blooper hahaha. Great video though mate. Yeah I'll have to give it another go on the E mode next time

[@FourLowAdventures]

My advice, carry a bog out to use as winch redundancy

[@MidCoastAdventures]

Cool vid 😎👍 No drama from NP with your drone footage?

[@todaysaussieadventure]

Love seeing our local area, don’t think I’ll go there solo need a copilot, however would like to give the new Dmax a real test, keep up the great vids mate 👍😎

[@TylerThompson90]

Cheers mate

[@stuartkcalvin]

I'm surprised that the RAE didn't pull an old Baily Bridge out of storage or place one of their LoC bridges. That throttle sprint piece does not provide more power - it adjusts throttle response. I'd be interested in a comparison with your Dad's muX and a DMax - I'm leaning towards the D for carrying capacity. Nice piece, thanks.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate! Yeah I said it the start it just gives you faster throttle response, not more power. Need to get a dmax to test it out

[@docfluty]

That water looks great... but as an outsider, if I ever travel to Australia I don't think I could ever get into any open water... Crocs got me spooked from the other side of the planet lol

[@locked-down4wders671]

No crocodiles in nsw

[@petermiddo]

You know those loops you connected your winch to the MU-X? Not recovery points! and I've seen the damage they cause when they let go. (They are for tying a car down to a trailer, and not for snatching or winching to or from)

[@TylerThompson90]

Yeah I find with winching like that when their isn't massive loads its fine, a winch is a slow pull, compared to say a big snatch/jerk on them. But yeah he does need to get rated recovery points which I have told him

[@petermiddo]

@@TylerThompson90 🤣 I have seen them come apart from a slow winch like that. Took half the bumper of the MU-X with it, in a cloud of hard plastic.....

[@graemeprocter3739]

endings with views like that got me into 4x4ing

[@jongooch3474]

Noticed your dads M-ux has manual hubs on the front. Just wondering why? Is there any benefit? Good video by the way.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate. Yep we did a video on this a while back, just means you can disengage the cv from rotating all the time, so if you break it disengage it and drive home. Slightly less fuel usage, wear and tear etc as your axles aren't turning all the time until you engage manual hubs

[@onix5060]

Does the MUX have lockers?

[@TylerThompson90]

Not in this video, a locker is getting installed this week

[@positivepete4265]

Why didn’t you go around the rut at 8:46 and drive on the left into the bush?

[@TylerThompson90]

There was a heap of things in there we would have had to clear and we like to try drive the obstacles

The moment that winch rope snapped I would’ve snapped haha & would’ve been convinced I was only getting out with panel damage.

[@ryantilley-general.shenanigans]

This is what i call mission creep 4wding. You go out with no intention of even locking hubs, then your slowly slowly slowly getting into harder situations.

[@TylerThompson90]

Haha yep!

[@Agent.K.]

I sometimes go for a 10 minutes quick beach drive with no intention of even airing down, cause I won’t go “that far”... then I get off the beach 4 hours later, 10 psi in the tyres, and sand all over my face 😅
