I remember going to an off road event in a Quarry with my Land Rover SIII there was a guy there with a Fiat Panda 4x4 everyone was laughing at him but by the end of the day everyone had respect for him and the Panda. Sure it was not as capable as the the Landrovers going up hill but he threw that little car off the tops of the cliffs, he slid down not necessarily on its wheels but however he reached the bottom and drove away. It was a tough little car and did far more you would expect. I have never laughed at any small 4x4 since. But every job has the correct tool.

Jimny transfer box is easy to swap out, i picked up one for £40, also get some front manual locking hubs off a SJ410 or SJ413, straight fit. And i also had a cherry bomb exhaust on mine, that age of Jimny gets the Swift GTI engine, it can sing.

You two have such awesome chemistry and rapport, really great to see. Best motoring due I've seen in ages, may your future success continue, keep up the wicked content, cheers Seamus 🍻

Honestly your videos make me so happy. Really brightens up my day. Makes me want to make car videos of my own

this whole challenge series is getting much much better

Loving these videos, it's making me want to get to work on my grand wagoneer!

Great work lads, especially Taylor on an absolute find there. I definitely want to see more from these, especially an overlanding challenge followed by off-road camping roadtrip?

Damn that Nissan X-Trail is perfect! All it needs is a 2 or 3 inch lift kit and that's it, it's done, don't touch it afterwards. The Jimny on the other hand... Well that just needs a skip because that's shagged worse than a stray dogs kennel

Ah, brilliant stuff guys. Me and my Dad upgraded an ex-RAF Land-rover Lightweight when I was a teen. Fitted a Rover V8 to it. Hard cab. Winch. Mud plugging tyres and wheels plus a roll cage (please fit one if you’re serious about off-roading). Green lanes were a piece of piss. We entered competitions in disused Welsh quarries! It was unstoppable!! Was surprised one of you didn’t rock up with an old 4x4 Fiat Panda. They’re amazing off-road.

Possible for there to be a HG leak between oil and water, will result in The Sludge but nothing from the exhaust because it's not a failure into a cylinder. Far less likely to do a head gasket that way but it _is_ possible. Excited for this challenge, looks like a lot of fun! Jimny needs some tinkering but there's a LOT of potential there. X-trail isn't a bad little unit but depending what engine and those front shafts aren't very strong(!).

Great as usual; spontaneous, funny and simple! Will be great if you do an offroading challenge between Jimmy and X-Trail!

You and Taylor have really lifted off with your channel, you guys are brilliant and really mould together well, both in your individual ways! Well done lads and looking forward to your 2023 crazy adventures! 😜👍

Happy New Year Alex and Taylor ... content is absolutely 🔥 can't wait to see what you do in 2023.

this is the sort of content I was dying for Alex to make on the old channel, now we get it constantly. love it.

Jimmy and Paul definitely deserve a new life...can't wait for the upcoming videos

Must say, you're quickly becoming one of my favourite motoring channels. And to top it off your choice of music makes me all fuzzy inside. Cheers and merry New year!🍻🥰😂👍

Great video, looks like you had lots of fun. I have a land cruiser and in fact I have owned various 4x4 cars for the past 20 years. Always fun to drive them in snow and off road.

Never considered an x-trail, but it looks wicked tricked out with nobbly tyres. I want one now!

I am very interested in the idea of an off-road adventure with these cars. I really enjoy good off-road adventure videos like the ones posted by mighty car mods. All the best.

Loving the car choice and loving the chemistry between the two of you. Good luck with all that you do.

This video and challenge is so much fun. The Jimny really surprised me on road, you need you give it som love Alex! And what a bargain Taylor got with that Nissan... Oh man I need a 4x4 !!! Regards from Sweden.

Can't wait for the sequel. Both cars could be (even more) awesome with a bit of TLC!

This is awesome! We owned both a first gen x-trail and a jimny as well, i think simultaneously even, and have fond memories of both. A jimny is just the easiest modern car to work on, everything is simple, accessible and cheap. And I think the x-trail 2.5 was perhaps the most comfortable car I ever owned, great visibility, and easy to drive. Too bad mine had to go, cause it used one litre of fuel every 10km, and 1 litre of oil every 500km, which just cannot be a good sign for the health of the engine.

Glad to hear the Jimny was still okay even without 4x4

Brilliant vid can't stop laughing.... I have a Jimny and its standard apart from some offroad tyres and it will go anywhere!! but I'm jealous of Taylor's xtrail thats a steal at £700 but the wrap or paint job is what makes it a true off-roader. I hope when you get the Jimny sorted you do a proper offroad challenge and show the xtrail up and prove how mighty the jimny is!!!

Really enjoyed watching this. Such a laugh! This channel gets better and better with each new video released. Keep it up!

I got an 01 Xterra for $550. It's a RWD 2.4L 4 cylinder with a manual transmission, and I got it from a towyard the day before it would be crushed (no one was interested for the $1800 asking price and I contacted the guy when it was down to $1000, then talked him down to $500+$50 paperwork fee). I was essentially giving him $100 over the crush value. It's quite capable in Colorado despite not being 4WD; I've gone through 4 winters here and it hasn't gotten proper-stuck or broken down once. The KA24DE is a great and easy to service engine, even if it doesn't have much factory power (top speed is governed to 100MPH exactly). It offers the ground clearance my $900 89 Prelude Si doesn't offer, so that's my summer fun runner/project car, and the Xterra is my winter mule/also project car.

About a month ago I nearly bought a 4x4 Fiat Sedici mulijet (Suzuki SX4) but unfortunately I didn’t and I went away with the dog on a dumb road trip across Ireland in my shitty £500 Honda Jazz, on one of the bumpiest, most remote and covered in ice mountain roads (thanks Google Maps) we got stuck. if the car slid any further I would have rolled off the side of a very steep hill. There was no signal so after sitting there for a bit and trying to move the car or spin it round with the handbrake on I was about to give up but I remembered an old Scandinavian trick, I let loads of air out of the front tires and peed on them. Yup I peed on the tyres and around them and guess what it worked I got unstuck and got to our Air BnB 3 hours late.

Brilliant video Alex. Maybe the best you've done. Love everything about it. ❤

I had an old soft top Vitara on proper knobbly tyres with the bumpers cut mostly off and it was really good even on some quite involved off road courses.

Taylor smashed that! Well done son. Also Alex that jimmy deserves some love’

Love it. Towing a lorry in snow is peak land rover. I towed a Ford galaxy up a steep snow covered slope from a standing hill start in my wife's freelander and took my series 3 landy out for donuts during last weeks snow.

I've had two jimnys in my life and they are the toughest car you could find. They'll survive everything and I've probably fallen in love with them. The mechanical side of the jimny is so charcterfull. Also, the missfireing issue could probably be solved by changing the sparks. And my experience with transfercase is that it needs either a good knock with a hammer or a little fiddleing with wires.

@jessebrown1400

Жыл бұрын

I have an 04' it was misfiring because of the plugs, I changed plugs and still misfire, the issue is a lack of dielectric grease on the coil pack connection. Smear grease on that and the spark won't short to cylinder head and no more misfire. Transfer case likely has damaged solenoid or corroded wiring. Usually they get stuck in 4lo and you have to hard reverse then Jame brake to unbind the drive system.

Never clicked on an upload so fast, idk how taxing these challenge vids are but personally they are by far my fav

Mk.1 Fiat Panda 4x4 back in the day mine went places a shogun couldn’t. All sorts of mischief as a teenager! It could do doughnuts in the snow, like Colin McRae, we’re both from Lanark and I used to meet him in the pub.

Watching this channel just always picks me up and puts a smile on my face

Wisconsonite here. When I was 16-17 y.o. my mother had a 98 Jeep Cherokee Sport with its Mopar Straight 6 4.0L 225h.p. with 225ft lbs of torque. Being a teen I loved it. 1 time I took it out mudding w/out my mother knowing. Didn't have permission as the folks where going to an event. So I took it out and made sure to run it through the car wash and afterwards manually washed the areas that it missed. Drove it till it drives and put it exactly where it was before pre-marking where the tires where. So they get home and not long after she asked me if I used the vehicle. I tried to play it off and she said she had something to show me to see if I can fix it. 🤣 I forgot to clean the panels between the door and the frame. They where properly caked in mud. I only wiped the driver side forgetting the rest. She said did it do well. I said yeah it was brilliant. She said great, your not using it for a month or 2.... lol I deserved that. Unfortunately later in miles it developed the death rattle hitting an odd bump or going over 25mph. Scarry. Felt like the tire was gonna fly off. Had to jack the wheel to the right to get stability back. Eventually that stopped working. Engine still ran beautifully.

That Defender pulling the lorry is epic!
