300 metres in 7 hours! IT ALL went WRONG! Stuck in my GU Patrol! 

I'll explain the thumbnail here for all the people who missed the joke/sarcasm. I wrote "I should have bought a Toyota" because when I posted the photo on social media and I got dozens of messages and comments telling me I should I have bought or Toyota or I should have bought a land cruiser. Every time anything goes wrong with the patrol or nav, doesn't matter if it literally has nothing to do with the 4wd eg a tyre off the rim or when I got water in the fuel in Cape York I'll just get smashed with all the hard core Toyota fans telling me how this never would of happened if I had a Toyota. It's hilarious for me and embarrassing for them. So I made a joke on social media I'll just make the thumbnail of this video "should have bought a Toyota" then it will save everyone telling me and all the Toyota fans will come running from everywhere to see the video to try give me more grief about how bad Nissan's are. And for people who get upset about titles and thumbnails, you need to find something more important in life to get annoyed about. "300 metres in 7 hours!" is not clickbait, that's simply what happened and I did get stuck and multiple things went wrong so I don't see how any of this is "omg dramatic clickbait". Titles and thumbnails make an absolutely massive difference to how many clicks and views a video get so of course I'm going to pick the most interesting and exciting title I can in regards to the video. Thats just how RU-vid works, much less people will click on a 'boring' title and thumbnail. I do RU-vid full time now, so I need views if I want to be successful and continue doing this full time. Everyone relax and just enjoy the video, I thought this was a pretty entertaining one :)

Hey mate, been a fan of your show since the beginning. I reckon you don't need to keep doing bigger, badder, more gnarly tracks to make your channel amazing. That is kinda what the 4WD action guys do. With them, each video has to be more extreme, more near accidents/vehicle damage. It's their brand. However, just watching you and your family tour, drive and camp is very entertaining because it's what I want to be doing. Environmentally respectful, challenging but accessible, cool 4WD camping. Just a thought for you ;)

Well done. Good to see you show how hard it can be fixing a tire on the track and not editing it to look so simple.

I have to say that in addition to having fun and quality time with your son, your also teaching him so many great lessons. Showing him that if you don’t know how to do something or how something works that’s ok and you can learn and stay humble. That if you attempt something and fail, that you don’t give up but keep trying new ways to achieve the goal. Each video you put out shows you being honest and transparent, not pretending to know things you don’t and not pretending to be someone your not, this is super refreshing given the society we live in currently. Keep doing you and keep showing your boy real lessons filled with fun.

Another ripper mate. Always a good balance between touring, camping and actual 4wding. Also Sunday morning is the perfect time to drop these.

That was a great, easy to watch video. Your camp set up is amazing.

Tyler, I am imperssed (very much so) with how calm and collected you are under pressure - awsome

Love my Sunday morning watching your channel

Great video Tyler. Man there are some really sooky people out there. Keep up the good work.

Awesome vid its been a long time since i have been to this channel i can see its only got bigger and better :)

Enjoyed the sense of humour and felt your challenges every step of the way. Success is being able to take viewers on the journey with you, whatever tracks you decide to take on, and this you do very well.

Solid effort getting up that huge rock step on the Pipeline Track. Shame about the tyre, although it calls for a good story! Loving the out takes too at the end.

great vid man , did the pipeline track in the dry and wet with a similar setup to yours , front locka , 35s , no locker in the rear and the difference in the wet was extremely harder than the dry but super fun , cheers again .

Great content guys and as for the hoodie home made commercial all I can say is great content guys

My favourite video of yours for a while! Good work Tyler. Love ya work.

Great video. Got to love pipeline track, it's been about 4yrs since I've driven it. Hope you get the beadlocks sorted, you should be able to run much lower than 12psi when their fitted correctly.

OMG! BABY! Congrats fella. I got a few weeks to catch up on.

Great video again. Got to love a coily GU.

Hey! I knew this important announcement was the new arrival!! Congratulations Demi & Tyler!!! Absolutely adorable!

Awesome vid mate ! Top job 🤙🏻

Wow! Hectic day. Great driving on that big step up, hit it like a Boss. Like Kai's t shirt.

What a bugger if a day, only 300m in 7 hours. What doesn't kill us make us stronger (or teaches us lessons). This day was a lesson for lots of 4wders wanting beadlocks. Make sure your tyre shop now how to fit them. Another great episode as usual thanks Tyler keep up the good work mate.

You could see the frustration in your eyes regarding your tyres 🤣👌👍👌 Another good vid, keep it up

Love the content, I’m shock at how you stay so calm. I’d have been mad as hell. I’ve had a very similar thing happen to me, except the tire was cut by a sharp rock out of no where and I didn’t have a proper off road Jack either and really struggled. I think you did really well under pressure as always. That tire shop should be pretty embarrassed but I’m glad they tried to make it right. Cheers

Hey TT, been a fan of your channel for 12 months now, loving all the content. Keep it up mate. Hopefully see you on the tracks one day!

yeah nah yeah that was cool ! plenty of flack to be copped from this im sure ! but you've done so well so you've got nothing to worry about ! great episode! well done !

Great video and also very funny on the couch 😂🤣

LOL - that comedy skit and outtakes were hilarious 🤣 👌🇦🇺

Hahaha. When the camera fell over….seemed to sum up the day. I really enjoy your content. Good job mate.

Good job champ. Got through it without pulling the hair out... something I would've done on camera and off. Stoked you added bloopers too 😂 keepin it real, keepin it genuine. Love it haha. Keep it up bud 🤙

In a strange way, i love that you don't know certain things lol. but you're out there, and you're learning, albeit the hardway! Great Video, keep it up!

Hey Tyler, just to let you know there is no such thing as a adr compliant beadlock rim. That is why these rims have the tires fitted the way that they are, just like a normal steel rim. You could refit the tires so the beadlock does hold the bead to the rim, but you could only use them for competition/racing. If using them on the any road sealed or dirt, any cop driving by could pull you over and defect your car. Worst still if you get into an accident solo or with other vehicles with your rims fitted up as a true beadlock your car insurance company can/will block your claim and leave you to pay for all damages even if you are not at fault. Now as to why there are no adr compliant beadlock rims in Australia I can only find 2 reasons. Reason 1 tires are made/designed to seal to the rim on the outside edge of the tire bead using the air pressure to hold the rubber tight to the rim. With a beadlock the seal is on the inside edge of the tire bead, with the air pressure pushing the rubber/beadlock ring away from the rim. Reason 2 The bolts, can be damaged, can break and can loosen and fall out. Say you are doing 100km/h down the highway and a beadlock ring breaks/falls off then you tire goes after it, no need to say how shit your day is going to go. And I think there is a 3rd reason that there are nor ever will be adr compliant beadlock rims in Australia is the cost to any company selling rims here to design, engineer and have the rims tested to comply with Australian Design Rules would put the rims into the $1000s to make any money in Australia. On the plus side with the rims you have if the tires are fitted like a normal steel rim the bolt on ring can stop some damage from rocks smashing and bending the steel rim were the tire bead is. Sorry about the great wall of text. Edited because there is always an exception, Humvee rims have an internal rubber band used to lock both beads. RU-vid will not let me post link to youtube video, copy the line below to see how that works. How To Mount Military Surplus 16.5" 2-Piece HMMWV Rims (12-Bolt or 24-Bolt) - RU-vid

Bro sweet vid, you inspired me to take the patrol out wheelin today 🤙

Gretą Video!!! Congratulations!

Your bloopers are soooo funny Malakai is so patient he just sits there smiling

Mate, great video and I really enjoyed watching you have a decent go all by yourself with just you and your boy. Tell you what though. Please get some scrub bars and some rear scrub bars to protect that rear quarter panel! Had me worked up watching that haha! Cheap insurance if you ask me and you might have been able to slip past that spot where you spent so much time trying to eek past.

You are a legend dude Love your content, I know I keep saying it mate, your doing a fantastic job champ congrats on the baby and my regards to demi Peace

Awesome video mate, looks pretty tight in there on that track , i was thinking about giving it a go but maybe not 😂😂😂😂. Looking forward to this series 👍👍🤠

ACTION PLUS... GREAT WORK... DRIVE WHATEVER U LIKE... ITS. YR CHOICE.... KEEP GOIN... LOVE IT...

Oh that spring popping out!

Thanks for a great Sunday morning laugh with my coffee. And another quality 4wd video of course, ignore the haters and jealousy!

That merch advertisement was tip top mate, good laugh

Awesome vid Tyler, really cool idea to cut the tiber with the saw for a make shift jack stand. Thinking outside the box. Be super careful under the car man. When they come off they just fall. I carry a flat bit of timber that I put the jack on, Takes no room and really light.

Great vid ,hope you get the beedlock sorted out I also like running the low 10-12psi.im looking to run the Staun internal beedlocks.hopefully I can get away with that,as there’s a bit of red tape/adr approval around beedlock wheels,bit frustrating as the laws can be different in each states.

Bloody good effort mate .

another top vid legend, loving the comments lol

Good stuff mate

Best video in a long while, back to basics with some tough 4wding

Mate, I'll click on ya vids no matter what the title simply coz of the usual no BS content, and maybe because I'm a fellow GU owner 🤣 . Awsum to see Ky getting involved, especially spinning the ratchet the wrong way, lol. Another great vid, still love ya work .👍

Lol. Great video. Love the intro

Started out nice and clean but didn’t go home that way 😂😂😂 certainly built for the hard stuff, good that the shop was honest and told you they didn’t know how to do bead locks, long day though 👍👍

Mate ! Done very well maneuvering and patience through that cross up, atleast there's no panel damage 😜👌 bad day doing what you love still ain't to bad 😎

Great video Tyler loved the comedy section I know not to do pipe line

Really enjoyed your video mate. Would love to do similar things with my son. Also got to properly understand how bead locks should work. Thanks heaps.

Your son is a bit of a trooper. Mine would have been whinging the whole time 🤣

Just subscribed, your fun to watch, the only other 4wd show i watch is 4wd 24/7. And i happen to own a 80 series landcruiser lol.Keep having fun out there.

Shit can happen sometimes Tyler but that sucked, anyway it's all in the past now and it still makes a good video so thanks and congratulations on your new baby 👍✌

Love the video Tyler, as always ! I highly recommend investing in some reduction gears. Together with a front locker it is without a doubt the best mod I've invested in on my GU ! Would've given you a lot more slower control on a lot of parts of the track in this video.

Got some serious flex there 💪 and what an experience for young fellah as the title says " Should've bought a Toyota".

Great video brother , could you talk more about where you are ,,,,,, location track names ect

Love ur work guys great job 🤙🇦🇺🙏

great vid as usual .. that look like "hard work" lifting the wheel of the ground, maybe need to invest in a highlift jack ... and congratulations on the new addition to the family

I love your bloopers. You crack me up. Another great video. Keep it up. By the way what awning do you have.

hahaha made me laugh so much on that tongue twister! I do that sh*t all the time haha. Love your work brother~! Living life the way it's meant to be. Also, I was just looking into this for myself, you can buy an extension kit for the bottle jack, its pricey $200 but it looks like it will save us with lifts with a lot of issues :D

Hey buddy, click bait or no click bait - misleading or not title, I don’t give a rats backside !!! I still watch every one of your videos ( many several times over ) because I’ve come to learn : you put a lot of effort into your trip planning, your execution of tracks is spot on and you bring great quality work showcasing what a good 4 wheel drive can do off road. Many of us may not have the latest greatest vehicles nor all the mods needed to do some of the tracks you do however I feel like I have because you’re taking us along for the ride. So don’t worry about the haters out there, they’ll hate because of the green eyed monster - jealousy. You keep doing what you’re doing mate, your fans will continue watching, enjoying and supporting your work and your channel. That’s not an arse kiss either, that’s from someone who sincerely appreciates all the time and effort you put in. It’s your legitimate full time business now and like many other businesses, sometimes people forget just how much work, effort and hours goes into the behind the scenes stuff. I understand how much work these videos can be to produce ( I know first hand as a fellow RU-vidr’ ) and as one of your ‘customers’, I can say it’s all good here mate, I’ve got no feedback for your customer support officer Kai’ 🤣👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 So just keep doing what you’re doing 😉

Kudos to yr son having the patience to hang around ( I guess no choice) while struggling in the tight section then the tyre issue. No thanks to the tyre fitters that fitted it like they did without either knowing or if they did, not telling you. What a right royal PITA. ! Once properly beadlocked I would go over the nuts again in a few weeks time. Great stuff 🙏🏽💪🏼

Great video mate, i've done a tyre on that track myself :) let me know next time you're planning on broken bago or something up around walcha :) i'll bring my Y62

Winch it mate, use the old snatch block & Bob's your uncle. It may be a pain in the ass to set-up but it's quicker in the long run, take it from someone that wheels 14 ton of Overland truck full time outback living. One final thought, the good old reliable Max-tracks can achieve the impossible when you think it out.

great video dude. with the part you had to pack the track as to not get panel damage, next time try get your wheels closer to the bank it will level you out better and bring your body away from the bank, and as for the beadlocks they look like the tyres were installed wrong your outer bead shouldve been between the outer ring and the rim. 🤙

Shame about the bead locks and also solo driving in the wet Great vid Taylor

Could have been an hour & and 1/2 long video it went so quick. Congrats on your baby Tyler & Demi. A new wheeler in the family.

Congrats on bub's safe arrival

Clean the bead mate, welding gloves, deodorant spray and bbq lighter to light. we did it 5 times with 35,s on 1000 dollar track. We found 18" tyres came off heaps where 16's and 17's on other cars did not come off. Cheers

I use traction mats for trail packing works a treat brother also u can use traction mats to stop the jack Sinking into the ground. Work smart not hard

Love the vids mate. Did you consider using your recovery boards more often? It looks like the 4 on your roof would be easier than packing rocks and spinning wheels? Reckon it’s also good education/content for others that carry boards. Cheers man! 👍🏼🇦🇺

Last try nailed it bro ,,BEADLOCK = Ring Tyre Rim , Bolt together,

This is why i go to the tyre shop thats part of the local 4wd and camping store. They all drive/race patrols so you know they are all over it

Not sure if it would have helped in this situation, but sometimes driving close to a bank is a more effective way to keep you from getting body damage. Assuming that it keeps the vehicle more upright... Being a big Toyota fan, the first thumbnail didn't bother me at all. Everyone that has a lot of experience 4wdriving will know certain Patrols are the best 4wd you can get for all-round hardcore off roading. I'd still never buy one haha. Thanks for all there effort on the videos. Great entertainment!

doin it tough!!

Great watch 👍🏻

Great entertainment, thanks.

That cracking noise as the suspension flexes is cracking.

Good video mate.

A balloon jack are good on uneven ground, you can’t beat steel rim, I am a split rim man, old school.all the best mate.

you actually had it @ 11:35 but suddenly it stopped pulling you down instead. the feeling was almost there as I watch haha.. good thing you recovered @ 12:15. was wondering where your jimny is..

Sell the beadlocks and get a set of wheels that are just normal. Ran twin locked Gu 4.8,6" lift on 37s not beadlocked for many many years on hard tracks. 10psi on beach, 15-20 in rocks/hill, never popped a bead or had a puncture. I'd never have beadlocks on a daily

You have TWO 10mm sockets!?! I had a 10mm socket once, it’s rattling around in my engine bay now. Big congrats on the new baby mate.

Haha if you owned a Toyota you would need another channel just for trackside drivetrain repairs.

Looks like a cordless impact wrench will be on the cards!

I’ve driven many off road vehicles over 42 years of driving from series 2A, 3, and 110 ladies UNIMOGS SIX WHEEL DRIVE Macks owned Gu patrol a bt50 and two Prados. The GU is vehicle I miss the most. Never let me down.

Congratulations on the arrival of the bubba who made an appearance there 🥰

Hey bud love your content is that screenshot that you put up of the rims you bought the actual ones that you purchased size offset and all and are you running a 35” Tyre what brand and size tyres are you running i love how they sit want the same setup on mine Thanks in advance keep up the good work 👌

Really need to question is it worth getting beadlocks, due to not being legal for road use... Only good for comps etc! Feel for you having to spend all that time, frustrated etc on the track trying to figure out the headlock situ. Anyway as usual great filming/editing. .

all turned out ok Tyler, i thought i saw that you were going to put that wheel on the wrong way round

This grow is straight....(see what I did there?...) lol. Awesome work Tyler...as always...

Dude, so hectic!, awesome and normal from you. Personally, I would have pulled the winch earlier. Get that you have to make content, but damn, that is a HARD call. Really enjoy your self pressure to make it! ps. Getting bead-locks is in the NAME and they have to LOCK!. That was painful ;)

Love the Thumbnail hahahaha would have all the Toyota fans flocking to this video with their sock in hand hahaha

G’day Tyler, we love what you are doing and therefor watch your vids.! Good vid and some very good commences from the Audience too. As an outsider with much less 4WD experience in OZ and with an Patreon account I was waiting for your vid on YT and of course to see the first 100 commences as always. Yes, I take the time to read them, because still in dry learning phase condemn in home office. Interesting to see that you still jump in the TOYOTA vs. NISSAN thing.. I am laughing my a… off on it.!! Why just don’t give it a flick…. To reply on such thing does not contribute to your contend. We all know nobody is perfect and shit happen sometimes even to the very experienced. Sample for criticism : why you did not stay next to the dude who assembled your new tires to the headlock rims look what he is doing and how he did it “wrong” you could have asked your questions and with a bit off experience detected it befor it went wrong fitted. Very much respect for your solo driving without an well experienced spotter and guidance, sure things not always go right while sitting in the driver seat and having limited overall view. I would have done worse and the “think before you act” in some situations like that at the stage not always functioning. So, no tip from my side except your recovery gear looks to me incomplete. High lift stands and exhaust jack for such solo trips I would put under the seats. Keep the sunny 😎 side up. Cheers

Kai using that ratchet just killed me I am dying of laughter because I thought he was using it properly then the zoom in

OMG I can’t believe the tyre people guessed! That’s shit and dangerous as you could have gotten into serious trouble! Glad you got through it!
