We run out of fuel, food and tyres - do we make it? THE KIMBERLEY FINALE 

Food and fuel is running low, but BEERS are all stocked up!! That's what I call Priorities🤣🤣

I am pleased that they've chosen to fully lean in on how drunk they get for the cooking segments.

Can we just appreciate the editors on this, 10days full of filming cut down into the most amazing 3 and a half hour journey we've seen on this 3 part video

I think Jessie completing that in 2wd only is testament to him but also the capability of the Ranger - very impressed

I figured I would share my “bush fix” story with you guys. I was driving down Padre Island National seashore (65 miles of 4wd beach driving). I had driven down to the end of the seashore and camped/fished for the weekend and started my journey back down the 65 mile stretch late Sunday afternoon to get home. Cell phone service is non existent and being a Sunday the beach was virtually empty of other people. I made it to the 46 mile marker (46 miles from the only exit and civilization) and I saw steam billowing out from my engine bay. My heart sank as I realized my radiator blew. There was a crack along the entire side of the radiator. I sat and drank my last 2 beers wondering what on earth to do as nobody else was coming and I didn’t want to be stranded for days waiting for someone to come by. I dug through my tool box and found 1/4 tube left of JB weld in the bottom. So I gathered some flat sea shells and bonded them with JB weld to seal the blown out radiator. I then used my shirt as a filter and drained my melted ice from my cooler through my shirt into the radiator. I waited a couple hours and fired it up. No leaks! I ended making it all the way back to town on that bad boy! The look on the radiator shop’s face was priceless when he saw my work. Needless to say, JB weld is now on every trip I make down there!

Ranger on 2wd impressed me

As an American, I respect the hell outta you guys. We both come from countries that don't have good histories with respect to the Indigenous Peoples, but your gang always shows them HUGE respect. It's cool to see the Traditional Owners acknowledged and respected, visibly, in everyday life, in all forms of Australian media. It'd be nice to see more of that over here.

I've never watched a video that made me "want" and "not want" to do a thing so much.

My bush repair story, we were travelling in the NT in a petrol V8 and the fuel pump died. We cut into the cars fuel line, added extra fuel line and ran that through the cab and into the engine bay. We used a boat outboard primer bulb manually in the cab as a fuel pump to continue.

Alright boys we'll set up camp, get shit faced and then do the dinner segment.

BY FAR THE BEST EPISODE IVE EVER WATCHED

Shauno rolling over: "Oops, I did it again" starts playing.

Dad’s GQ back in the day, on our way back from a weekend camping in the You yangs. Though a bog hole we managed to put a hole in the sump, lost all the oil and thought we were stranded. Dad in a stroke of genius epoxied a bit of a mud flap to the sump and the patch held. 6 different viscosities of oil from passerby’s in the old girl got us home. What an ordeal.

How these blokes haven’t snagged a massive television deal yet I have no idea. But regardless, this is unreal. The trip, the crew, the vehicles, the edit, everything... this is unreal fellas

Rocket is exactly the kinda guy you want around in an emergency situation like this. Cool, calm, collected and called every maneuver spot on, instilling confidence and reassurance in the shook driver.

Was up cape york and my headset bearings on my motorbike become a little dry, the only thing we had to use was vegemite and it worked a treat

Absolutely loved having Rocket Rod back. He's one of the best

Rocket is absolute legend..with a lot of knowledge about mechanical part..

Loved the episode guys! My most memorable camp meal was when id first got my little 97 zook, didnt know the front manual hubs were siezed with red mud and rust, so i was 2wd on a soft beach with my best mate. Got most of the way too! We cooked up some beef angus burgers together on a little sandflat with a gas cooker. Sadly 2 days after that meal my best mate passed away due to suicide at 17... was a beaut meal, cooked perfectly. First and last camp adventure with my best mate. Wouldnt have changed that night for the world ill tell ya what

Yeah the Ranger! Drove absolutely everything it was pointed at even in 2WD 👌🏾

Awesome. Shauno is drunk making noodles lol

Anyone who enjoys off-roading, camping, and drinking beer has to envy these guys.

BEST BUSH MECHANIC FIX - We were out camping along the Murray river and I smashed my front diff gears in on my Jeep JK Wrangler. I removed the front axles, and drove it home in 2 wheel drive to get it out of the bush. Had only a few spanners and sockets and the life saver tool, Vise grips that’s did most of the work. 🔧 Got the job done

My best bush fix story: My cousin and me were riding the world sketchiest aprilia red rose motorcycle in romania in the middle of nowhere, when the bike suddenly stopped. There was no villages around 10miles so I decided to take apart the fuel tap, because there was no gas in the fuel line. I found a lot of dirty muddy rust on the filter, but we don't had any rag to clean it up, so I plucked some grass from the side of the road and wiped down the dirt. It worked fine so we made it home. I never forget that story.

Shawn just makes the river crossing after multiple attempts and twin lockers and goes nuts Jessie just popped outa that river in 2wd and gets no credit. Ranger showing up strong

"Ain't no place for halfway crooks" 😂😂😂 Graham's a man of culture

Grilled trout in the rain. Arrived at camp late and all of my friends were huddled under their awnings because it was raining. I showed up started a fire under an awning and grilled trout for everyone. It was amazing and delicious. One of my best can’t memories ever.

Bush repair fix. Travelling the freshwater track at double Island in a fj40 cruiser with a 253 v8 we put the fan through the radiator. Low of options and low on beers we were desperate for a fix. First option which was sensible and stupid at the same time was start a fire, melt down the lead from the battery to fix the rad. Obviously that was answered with what are we gonna start the car with. Our last resort was a tree with moss all over it. We ripped the rad out, straightened the damaged tubes out. Removed the engine fan and ran with just the thermo we had on the front. We then packed it with moss off a tree and sap. Put it back it. Then had to sacrifice the last beers to fill it. Drove back to rainbow and bought some glue but it wasn't leaking so figured why touch it. We made it towing a trailer back through the freshwater track, down di and all the waY back to brissy towing a trailer. Funnily enough we work at a radiator shop so later in our spare time we ripped the rad back and and tested it in our tub and no leaks.

I swear if your editors put all three episodes together you’s have a record breaking emotion packed, action filled movie that people would really enjoy

cant believe how well Jesse drove in 2WD

My mum grew up there I showed her this video it brange so many memories back to her for when she was a kid

Ford Ranger Raptor 2x4 that is a combination of driver and UTE....Well done!!!

Look I almost guarantee that 95% of us come here for the 4WD videos, but stay for Shauno's cooking lessons! There should be a RU-vid channel for Shauno's Cooking! This stuff is gold!

The best bush mechanic fix I've seen was on a mates old Suzuki. His clutch was worn out and stopped working while out bush. To get it home he used silicone to stick 20 cent pieces around the face of the clutch plate and it actually worked well enough to get him home.

My Radiator was liking with small holes and I was at the Tsavo west Nationa part and I bought tea leaves and put in the radiator , MY bush fix

Fully pissed up bush cooking is the only way to go. Laughed a bit hard on that last cook up, I went cross eyed and nearly shit myself a bit. It's good to see I'm not the only one who behaves in this manner while cook'n out bush. Awesome!!!

Guys if there was a way to do it. I would give a million like on this trip on each part. But I will have to say u were missing one person on this trip. Jocko

Got to be the most pissed cooking segment yet!! Love it! Totally relate to this 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Not sure if my earlier comment worked, was signed into wrong account. Bush fix. We were on the freshwater track at double Island in a fj40 with a 253 in it. Put the fan through the radiator. We were low on beers, not many tools. Was later in the day. First option for fix that was thrown out was smart and stupid at the same time. Start a fire, melt down the lead in the battery to fix the rad. That was answered with how are we gonna start the car (insert swearword here). There wasn't many option we removed the rad and engine fan. We had a small thermo on the front that we had to rely on. Then straightened up the damaged tube, got moss and sap off a tree. Jammed it all in the holes. put it all back together without the engine fan, because we had a broken gearbox mount and it would of hit again. Had to sacrifice the last beers to fill it up. Drove to rainbow and bought some glue but because it wasn't leaking we left it. Made it back through the track and up the beach, all the way back to brissie. Funny story is we all work in a radiator shop so when we had time we ripped it out and pressure tested it and it didn't even leak.

I absolutely love watching you two cook. What a show!

The best Bush mechanic fix I've ever done is use my windshield washer pump as a temporary fuel pump as the old one let go on a track 85km away from any shops to buy one

Love how Shaun’s slurs increase as the cooking progresses

My best bush mechanic story was with an old camping mate, basically here is the background information, Up in the Vic high country for Australia day weekend, fully loaded 80 series and 4 other people in my fourby. I had lost my 14mm wrench a week prior, but was glad I found it once again, on the steep track, after being dislodged from some part in my engine bay, hitting the radiator fan an getting spat straight into the radiator completely tearing a good 1/4 of the bottom fins out. Ended up pulling out the radiator and mending it with the following materials, 2 eggs, a small amount of metal putty, 1 perfectly rounded stick, 4 zip ties and hopes and dreams (we clamped what we could) ended up driving another 3 hours in the bush, camped the night, drove 6 hours home and never lost a drop of water and didn't get hot, had a new radiator in the next day and went straight back up

here is my bush fix, we were driving deep into Colorado rockies , going from crested butte to aspen (14 miles) when my radiator solenoid went out, the electric motor still worked but i needed a way to hot wire it to the battery, having no spare cables y looked around to see what I could use, well I ended up finding my wife's curling iron!! i cut off the cable and made the repair, got the radiator fan working enough to get to town!! Needless to say my wife was not pleased when she saw her "expensive" curling iron choped off!

Great work on the quick edit fix!👌👌 don’t sack the culprit, stick um in the back of Daryl for the next trip! 👍🇬🇧👍

Best experience of my life was when my mate blew his brake lines so I had to winch to the back of him for the rest of the trip and the whole way home so he can stop and or slow down!😂😂

The cooking segment is always the best part 🤣👍

Absolutely EPIC series! Sitting in the EU as an ex South African bush traveler, gotta say you mates have my blood boiling for the hard road again. Motivated beyond belief. Cheers!!!

Shauno's half cut making 'desperato dinner' love it lads yewwww🤙🏼🤙🏼

Broke a tie rod end.luckily had some welding rods in the ute. 2 batteries, jumper cables and welded a bolt across the broken section to patch it up and get it out

Having a flat because of SIDE WALL MAJOR damage .so last resort was fill the tyre with rags and spinaflex grass,packed in as tight as you can ,tyre back onto the rim( the half you pull off for access ) and did 300 km on dirt before it’s structural integrity collapsed.saved us.great show,mad questions you ask ,and SO AUSTRALIAN 🇦🇺

My repair story: 6 months ago, driving a little known bush track in North East Tassie, middle of nowhere basically. Family and I were on our own, and weren’t even doing anything exciting at the current moment, but driving on the flattest part of the track and kicked up a stick that ripped the fuel line right out of the top of the fuel filter housing. Thought maybe it had only popped off, but it had actually tore a chunk off the top of the housing so the hose wouldn’t even sit in it anymore. About an hour later, covered head to toe in diesel, managed to connect 12 zip ties together and wrap them around the fuel line and filter housing to pull it in enough that I’d get enough fuel pressure to run the engine. Lost 50Lt of diesel (nearly ran out) on the 40 min drive to civilisation, but happy to have made it!

How many times Shauno mentioned "that's a lot of noodles!" with a smile shows just how many can of beers he's had. 👍😁

not a 4wd but dads old monaro had the whole rear end drop out while driving down a dirt road in the outback. all bolts snapped and lost in the dirt he had to put the rear end back in held up & together with ratchet straps and drove back home while the whole rear end wobbled from side to side. sketchy and bogan as all hell but he made it out.

"Drive it like a rental - Mate" - a real true aussie statement. I did the old Telly track back in -05 and I did experience city slick's in rentals bragging on the radio that they where sitting at 100km's or more until they hit they're first dip - and that was it. Talked to one of the long haulers going from Weipa up to Bamaga - and he could tell me on his return run - he had 2 - 3 wrecked 4X4's a back with him. Gonna give these Diggers much credit - well done. Blessings from Norway

I have gotta say I’ve never laughed so hard in my life at two blokes out bush cooking 😂😂😂 Shauno you legend ahahahahahahaha

Hey @4WD24-7, if Rocket is still wondering when he bent his tray/canopy the first time the gap is shown as wrong is @19:25 in this episode.

Killed an alternator on monkey gum years ago in a long weekend. Couldn't get parts so pulled the alternator apart and scratched the brushes on a rock and put it back together back up to 13ish volts good enough to get home

My dad and I used JB Weld to repair a broken hose outlet on a radiator and years later its still going. I have plugged a huge hole in a tire when we were out of plugs with a bolt and a butterfly anchor with a washer and a layer of duct tape under the washer. It held well enough that we could air it up every hour or so and limp it home.

best video series yet. keep them coming and show us more of that Ranger

The Final cut 🤣 let’s watch the edited version … no sound overlaps 🤠

Ronnie is a legend and can’t wait to get up there and meet him!

Best bush mechanics story… Blew up the front diff in remote WA on some sand dunes. Gears shot through the housing and drained all the oil. I have photos of the gear hanging through the diff housing. Managed to remove front tyres and had a 35mm socket on hand to remove the axles from the HUB. Banged the wheels back on and drove it back to base. Managed to get Diff rebuilt and off we went!

Mate blew a clutch spring in his 06 Hilux day 2 into a 5 day trip out in Kakadu NT, scratching our heads for how we were going to fix it I had a protein shaker spring egg in my ute and a couple small hand tools (I E long nose plies and side cutters) turned this spring egg into a clutch spring that was meant to last the trip and get him back to town to get it fixed turned into a 'Clutch spring' that lasted 2 and a half years before getting replaced. Best bush mechanic fix I've done by far

Best episode to date had my laughs when shauno and Graham went "fishing" for dinner and went round to all the mycoolman

Here’s a bush fix for ya, I was out with my dad in the Victorian high country in the middle of no-where at -5 degrees I slid down this steep slope and into a stump and bend the pan hard rod, drag link and steering damper. I was up till 2am with a bottle jack against the bottom of one of the many huts surrounding us bending the drag link straight again and winching the pan hard rod as straight as possible then drove about 1000kms all the way back home, successful fix to me 👍

Tyre sidewall repair ... I do safaris into Namibia , and north Namibia and Kaokoland is trackless wilderness where the stones are sharp and the tree stumps are rock hard Mopani trees. We have used a tractor inner tube cut into football sized patches,and glued it in place and also a bit of plastic coke bottle to keep the tube from coming out the fist sized hole in our last spare tyre.. it kept air in, and gravel out , so that was a win. It kept going 400kms to the closest tyre shop, and the wheel was so airtight that we kept the one as a second spare for a few trips before we remembered what was underneath when the balancing proved to be a little difficult.

16:30 the mobb deep reference from Graham hahaha

Dad snapped a tye rod end on an almost vertical hill and had drive up it one wheel straight and one wheel was a 45 degree angle. When he got the top via driving it him self, he had to steal one out of a burnt out 4wd drive and had to self-install it on the top of the hill.

The “Hotwheels” Ford Ranger Raptor was the true MVP of this trip

Graham’s and Shauns commentary and work chemistry / mateship in front of the camera makes this series so enjoyable to watch. Shauns child like laugh is so naughty and enjoyable. Great sense of humour fellas. You couldn’t script stuff like this. It is 100% authentic and enjoyable. Well done

The best bush mechanic fix we've done was a couple of days ago in the middle of the Simpson, one of the patrol chassis's snapped in half, cracked clean through 3/4 of the way round on both sides, just in front of the forward leaf spring mounts. The back was bouncing forwards and backwards about a foot each way. It happened about lunch time and we pilfered every piece of steel we'd brought, hooked up two batteries and welded the steel across the crack to hold the chassis. We then made up some steel braces that bolted between two canopy mounts, and then finished up with some 2.5T ratchet straps either side to keep it together. The car drove off from where it was parked at dinnertime that day, then we proceeded to baby it 350km across the desert, calling every bump and corrugation along the rig road and down the Birdsville track and back to Melbourne.

I was travelling from kingfisher to Cowell break I was in troopy 2h engine my radiator blow up and we had no water but we had beers when the engine cooled down we had to use our beers in the radiator to get to the eastern side and it works well

So happy to finally see Rocket Rod again. Hell of a series! Great adventure.

Our bush repair story is on a trail Called Whipsaw here un BC. To cut to the chase. Passenger side upper arm snapped in the balljoint area reaping out the brakelines and wheel just buckling over. So we had to bushweld the top and part and disable 1 brake line . Made it out in 2 wheel drive.

That last cooking segment had me in tears laughing

"Morning chill of almost 20°" Jeez that's a hot day where I am in the summer

Love the 7:30 fishing for food expedition!

My wife and I absolutely love this channel! Only issue... we have ran out of episodes to watch haha.

Made a Patrol Tie Rod out of tree branch and a few meters of fencing wire!! had to re jig it a rew times but got us home. :)

I've been waiting reallllyyyy patiently for this one, possibly the best journey yet

Gotta love this channel. The boys have so much fun. Also good when you can’t sleep in the middle of the night (3am) just to chuck it on.

My Most memorable camp dinner. My family has never understood our overlanding obsession. I overland with my wife and 11 twins but this trip I convinced my folks to join us and my mom decided we should cook on the open fire. I was shocked as she's an amazing cook but all indoor cooking, she's never seen a camp fire. We had a blast making some amazing meals throughout the entire trip. You never know what anyone is capable of until they join you on the adventure.

" Drive it like a rental" so funny, love Graham!

Seeing the dirty 30 in its side made me cry😢 bro the nicest rig in the convoy

I had a 2005 Subaru Outback I went to the Kimberley with. Did Oodnadatta track, some bits and pieces of currogated outback tracks in the NT and NSW and Gib river road. Had a 2" lift and the trailing arm spacers had been weakening the chassis, which finally gave way in Purnululu. Ripped a good chunk of chassis out and the trailing arm snapped in half as it hit the ground. Miraculously it didnt take the brakeline with it. Used ratchet straps to centre the wheel, giving pressure from both front and rear. After a couple ks we went to check on it and the jack decided it was the perfect time to call quits. For the next 70ks we crawled along at 10k/h stopping every hour waiting for someone to come by, flag them down and ask if they had any spare ratchet straps and a jack we could borrow. Eventually we got back to Kununurra and bought a cheap commodore to drive back home to Newcastle.

My most insane bush mechanic story. Drowned my 1hdt 80 series in the Mitchell River in Lower Dargo for about 45 minutes before we managed to get it out. Drained the oil, about 3 litres of clear water came out first. Replaced that Pulled the air intake and filter, filter totally drenched and water up to the top of the intake manifold. Woops. Used a piece of poly pipe to blow air into the top of the turbo compressor to get the water out. Pulled the injectors out and towed the car in 1st gear to turn over the motor which sprayed water into the air out of every injector hole like a pressure washer and at the same time shot a square foot of soot out the exhaust onto the ground. Repeated that process a couple of times after tipping a small amount of diesel into each cylinder. Dried the air filter in front of the fire put it all back together, hit the key and it started. Runs better than it ever did after getting all that soot out of it. So if you've got carbon build up in your engine, just stick it in the river then follow above process ;)

This entire episode, to me, was a Ford commercial. To say I was impressed with Jessie and that Ranger... Impressed isn’t a big enough word.

back on finally....i cried when the last one was taken off

Thanks for the shoutout guys! Our fire extinguishers and brackets are flying off the shelves! Another aussie business being helped out!! Thank you!!

My most memorable camp cookup was my bachelor party. A bunch of my buddies and I hit the local trail for the night. Upon arriving at camp, the buddy who had said he was cooking for me that night realized he'd forgotten the hamburger to make his Taco recipe I love. So we roamed around camp and borrowed a couple brats and chicken breasts from our other friends and instead of standard tacos, we had jambalaya tacos with fresh Pico de Gallo. I'll never forget that meal!

I was travelling through an old logging track in the watagans to explore some old machine wrecks lost 3 tyres in one hit on some hidden rusting bulldozer parts and had no way of getting out without leaving the rig behind until I found 2 tubs of filler expansion foam in the bottom of my tool box I have been given to use on a job that got cancelled 3 days before filled two tyres waited till they set the next morning ended up camping there the night and drove 2hrs home in them without getting any flats in the morning hade to buy new tyres after that 🤣 had to cut the tyres off the rims was such an ordeal

Bush mechanics - I made hard wood engine mounts for the 253 in my Hilux when doing the Toyota Fishing Classic on Fraser Island. Drove with them in there for nearly 6 months before I fixed the properly!!

This series made me super emotional. Massive respect from the lads to Ronnie and to the traditional owners of the land and massive respect from Ronnie to the lads as well. Absolutely brilliant.

Bush Mechanics - My husband and I went camping with a camper trailer for our honeymoon recently. Day 6, we were almost at Ningaloo Station (North Lefroy Bay), when we almost rolled the trailer. We bent and Axel, took the tyre off the rim, and cracked the tow hitch. 1,342km from home, we managed to pop the tyre back onto the rim, create a hold for the tow hitch with some heavy wire, and bend the Axel just a little bit back into normal to be able to travel home. Carried on our honeymoon and it still took us 2 tyres to get home, but thankful to arrive home safely and had it all completely fixed within the following week of arriving home. What a memory for the photo album 😆

“ your a winch truck poser mate “ 🤣🤣

I was up at Macquarie heads doing a beach run in a 1998 hilux, come to a culvert doing 90clicks jumping in the air a fair distance. Landed snapping a torsion bar, couldn’t turn the steering wheel as it had 35s. Had a chainsaw chopping a piece of wood to suit the ride height putting that in between the bump stop and LCA strapped that up with zipties to make it back to Hobart.

My bush repair story Coming out of fruitbat falls QLD we noticed the camper was sagging on one side. After close inspection we seen that the whole suspension system had gone through the floor of the camper and into the drawers above. After an hour or two on the side of the track we managed to find a log and combined with 50 cable ties we replaced the collapsed side with it. 2 hour drive to seisha and we were out of trouble. Managed to keep the log for the rest of our cape York trip. It’s still on display in the shed to this day!!

My funniest bodge job, was my wing mirror just kept falling backwards from trees etc and a bit of motorway driving. In the end my mate just chucked a coke bottle cap in-between the arm and the mirror to keep it up, it held up for the rest of the 600 miles of trip. My mechanics face was funny as hell when he saw that my wing mirror was being held together and up by a bottle cap.

Our best bush machanic fix was on Fraser Island. The 100 series flogged out its steering rack bushes. All the way at Orchid Beach, pretty remote so at the cost of some rubber mud flaps the boys cut the mud flaps up, wrapped them around the steering rack, reinstalled the steering rack mounting clamps and we finished our holiday and got back to Sydney.
