He he, this car has a dana 60 diff with fj80 axles, the one that broke was aftermarket item. The one that went in its place is chromoly axle. strong as an ox 🙂
Wow!! I visited Iceland in Hilux in August and early September. That was sort of easy. Impressive what the weather can be like in winter. I have been to Landmannalaugar and Hrauneyar. Respect for the safe return home! Greetings from Hamburg / Germany Karsten
This is not a Mercedes, this is even worse, this is a Korean SSang yong kyron! There, apparently, is an engine hydraulic shock, this is when water enters the engine cylinders, and then compression occurs, but water is not compressible!
I will never understand why people try to get through that river between Basar and Langidalur. Dead end. Foot bridge available for the worst part. Big 4x4 buses that can drive this easily constantly going. Why risk it, for what.
Heym what rivers can I cross with a Jeep Renegade (4x4)? It's my first time doing F-roads with river crossing (last trip did only regulars, and no river Fs). I'll be in Iceland again by May. Can I do F88 + F910? Thanks!
F88 might be possible but it has one pretty deep crossing, the Lindaá river. When I crossed it was about 60-70 cm deep but not a lot of current. If your air intake is high enough it should be doable, but going around and taking the F910 from the north is easier. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZInrbtkQBZo.html was my trip taking the F88. As for F910 going south, I would absolutely not recommend it. By far the worst road I drove, not because of river crossings but because of rough roads with a lot of rocks. If my vehicle wasn't lifted I would have probably hit a few rocks and ruined my undercarriage. Also, most of the F-roads will be closed in May. Not just unserviced, but prohibited to drive.
Hi, Tires are 42" good year Wrangler, 17x12" rims. The car is significantly modyfied. front Ifs system is brought 40 mm forward and 60 mm down. Rear axle in broght 150 mm back and 60 mm down, and so on and so on 🙂
I saw the tires and i was in . LOL monster truck snow plowing . That is one way to label it a TRAIL . I think this would be called breaking trail in English but im not sure cool video though . First comment . Its crazy how some people live . I mean that in a cool way .
This is home made on board inflation/deflation unit. Each wheel connected to an air box inside the car that is controlled by manually operated air valves. Very efficient for driving in snow.
It depends. coming weekend there is a lot of water in the rivers due to heavy rain in the last few days. there is a warning sign not to cross with litle cars. In dry weather the river can be ok, but also can be very dangerus. never cross unless you are sure every thing is ok for you and your car.
@@icelandhighlands I’m gonna be there in September. For sure I’ll check first by entering the river myself, and only drive in if I’m sure all is good. As I understand it we can also leave the car before the biggest crossing and hike our way to the Basar Hut, am I right?
Don´t do it, there have been resent problems with cars like dasia that gets stuck in smaller rivers near this one where the engine suck water. This one is far too deep to be safe for Dacia
𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗨𝗽 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗳 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 The United Nations recently celebrated the International Mother Earth Day as a reminder to protect the environment. Heat waves, droughts, fires and heavy rains that cause severe flooding have become more frequent in many parts of the world due to climate change, which affects the entire worldwide population. The Earth is facing a “triple planetary crisis,” warn UN officials. Climate disruption, nature and biodiversity loss, and pollution and waste are the main areas of concern regarding the current state of the environment. This year, the Earth Day’s theme is “Invest In Our Planet,” so what would humanity's best investment for the planet be? We need to start by cleaning up the planet. There is no place on Earth where the air and water are clean, and that's a real problem. In theory, tackling this issue should be our priority when it comes to taking action to improve the dismal state of our planet. But let’s not fool ourselves. Such a plan alone will solve nothing. It will only help the international organizations to justify their own existence. They tick off "done" to raise as much money as they want, and that's it. If we do not improve relations between us, we will not be able to achieve the great and ambitious improvement in nature that we want and need to attain globally. We will never achieve a good result through bureaucratic, mechanical measures. There are a lot of people sitting in their comfortable offices profiting from the environmental crisis and demanding money and respect. They keep flying from one end of the world to the other on all kinds of missions to make a lot of noise with what they are "doing" and which everyone "needs to hear" as if that alone means something is happening, but in practice we see no real progress. The Earth must also be cleansed of them, of these people who engage in useless campaigns that only cause harm because they mislead the world, leading it away from the real solution. The cleaning of the planet should start inside out. If we do not clean the planet from within, and continue with our reckless behavior and the selfish nature of our hearts as before, nothing will change for the better. The immense sums invested in environmental initiatives should be directed to spreading an educational process aimed at improving the way we relate to each other. Humans are the most developed and influential factors of all of nature's levels: still, vegetative, animate and human. Since we occupy the highest level in nature, positively affecting the environment, the climate, and nature in general can be achieved by reaching positive relations among us. On the contrary, by letting our divisive drives tear apart human relations, we also destroy our surrounding environment, the very nature that our lives depend on. The more we humans are able to correct ourselves by changing our divisive attitudes toward each other into positive attitudes of mutual support, encouragement, mutual responsibility, and reciprocal concern, the more we will receive positive feedback from nature. And the more we develop without making this necessary correction, the more negative feedback we will receive from nature, as we have experienced in the form of natural disasters, pandemics. It is of utmost importance for us to organize our thoughts, desires and qualities so that we understand that saving the environment and a shift to a better future depend solely on changing our attitudes to each other: from antagonistic egoism to positive, compassionate and cooperative relationships..
Bom dia! Pra mim é uma honra viu prestigiar seu trabalho, vamos sempre juntos somar e fortalecer nossos objetivos, Conto com você, eu já estou por aqui !
If I remember correctly, that is a dead end anyway. It's possible to use the footbridge and walk the remaining few hundred meters. So why cross the Krossa in an unsuitable vehicle?
