RAV4 Off Road clutch-kick up hill
zhlédnutí 353Před rokem
If you notice at around 1:00, you can hear 2-3 consecutive clutch kicks. This short but very steep hill is made of deep and very soft sand. The terrain is very unequal because of Jeeps and other 4X4 digging holes while attempting to get to the top. The RAV4 had airborne wheels at a few spots, so speed/momentum is impossible there. With the lack of a LO gear on the RAV4; clutch kicks were an abs...

The center differential locker was NOT locked at this time. I lock it only when I really need it, to avoid unnecessary drivetrain binding.

Part 1 is the downside view, part 2 is from the middle of the hill, part 3 is the upside view.... and part 4 is the inside view. I've seen many trucks that got stuck past the middle of that hill. The slope is much steeper in reality than what it looks in the videos.

do you know of any off-road trails near montreal? i’ve been trying to search them up but i can’t find any merci a toi
Non moi je suis au Saguenay. Mais je sais que plus proche de toi il y a la Montagne Noire qui est une destination populaire pour les gars de overland/hors-route.
So good! im inspired for mine... ❤.
Did you ever upgrade the front brakes? I want larger front brakes. I am currently researching what brake calipers and rotors might work
I still have original brakes, and I have no idea if an upgrade is available. Could be interesting.
what tire size do you have here and which brand? Did they fit without any previous modifications? I see you have original 16 inch rims
At this time the tires were BFG A/T K02 225/75/16, on original alloy wheels. There was no other modification.
Nice!! what are the wheel and tire specs pls, offset
-12 offset 16x8 Pro-Comp alloy wheels. Tires are BFG M/T KM3 225/75/16.
@@Trail-Warrior thank you
Is that skid plate custom made or retailers have them?
It's custom made.
@@Trail-Warriornice 👍🏻
Ooh your motor has a few additions since I saw it last 👍
You ever seen my RAV4 in real life? 🤔
@@Trail-Warrior no, I just meant since I watched one of your videos last 👍
@@IorekBear92 In fact; it has the same 2.4L as the last years. Maybe it sounds a bit differently, but still in healthy shape! :)
What was that white hose from the hood to the cabin?
It is a kinetic recovery rope... the RAV4 was new to me; and I had absolutely no idea how it would perform on this kind of terrain. I wanted to be prepared for the worst!
Does pre-face lift second gen Toyota Rav4 comes with central diff-lock? Mine is face lift version of the vehicle and I have no button for locking the central differential.
No; there is no center diff lock on any RAV4.2... only on first gen RAV4. I swapped a RAV4.1 transmission + t-case for the slower gear ratio and center diff lock function.
Good one!
how do you estimate that the car wont flip over?
Hi, is it possible to swap the engine from 2.0 d4d to 2.4 petrol? Thanks for any suggestions.
I can't tell, we never had the diesel version in USA/Canada.
Wow mechant beau build 👌🏼 oublie pas d’ajuster ton hand brake 😉
Merci!
Hahahag. Brutaaa
Фу дирмо
What suspension are you using? Im looking at upgrading mine
Old Man Emu 1.5'' lift springs + 40mm strut spacers.
Wheels info?
16x8 alloy Pro-Comp wheels (-12 offset).
on fire!!!
How much does it weigh?
If I remember correctly; the complete engine including all accessories was 380 lbs.
Hi.I m glad u still.drive that little.monster.There are 100% diff locks for them toytas now ...search blokka..
That's not a rav4
Yes it is
Whats your wheel and tire setup?
Pro-Comp 16X8 (-12 offset) wheels with 225/75/16 BFG Mud Terrain KM3 tires.
cool thanks for sharing. @@Trail-Warrior
What is the size of the wheels 🛞 ?
These are the stock alloy wheels (16x6.5 +45).
Where’s this trail?
Saguenay, Quebec, Canada
When you install the winch on to this one can you make a video on how you did it
You can see a few pics there: www.rav4world.com/threads/week-end-off-road-warrior.245017/page-3
Good job
Sweet rig
You’ll find that’s a lot easier if you put winter tyres on the car - those are generic off-road mud tyres and rubbish in the cold and snow.
During winter I use Nokian studded tires. I'm just not in a rush to install them for the first snow falls.
I'm planning to buy one for camping activities with my 15y.o son...🇲🇾💪
Good choice!
Is that new paint job?
No; it's a new RAV4.
Great car, great video. Cruised through those trails like they were leveled asphalt ❤
Wat you have taiers?size?
On that video the tires are BFG MT KM2 (235/70/16).
Hey bro! Do you know which roof rack you installed? Looks great
This one was a generic basket off ebay/amazon, and it was a real piece of crap. Later I bought a Rola and this one is worth the price.
Stupid
You Decided against moving the winch over to this new rav?
I still did not had time to install the winch to the blue RAV4.
Do you know why did he change between them?
@@VitorCoelho6 he answered that elsewhere and I don't quite recall the exact answer. I believe it was just a matter of getting a good deal on a different body in better shape and then modding it the same way over time.
looking at getting one of these rigs! Any things you think to look out for when buying one?
If you live where they salt roads during winter; check the front subframe carefully. It's their weak point. Same thing for the rear diff where it bolts to the unibody. If you check for a 2001-2003 with automatic transmission; they have some ECU soldering problems that could affect shifting. With high mileage manual transmissions; the fifth gear sometimes pop out by itself or does not works anymore.
awesome buddy, im building an '07 V6 rav4 buggy here in nova scotia. what have ya done to yours so far?
It would be great if V6 were sold into the gen 2 RAV4. It has a first gen manual transmission/t-case with lower final ratio (4.93). It has a center diff locker and a rear Torsen limited slip diff. Swapped a 2.4L instead of the original 2.0L. Front skid plate, 8000 lbs winch and 3.5'' lift kit. Sway-bars delete and 30'' BFG Mud terrain tires.
@@Trail-Warrior awesome man, lots more options with the 2nd gen ravs, pretty cool rig youve built buddy
@@Trail-Warrior ive got 2" front and rear lift, 10 ply tires from an f-150, sway bar delete front and rear, 2" wheel spacers, pedal commander and i reinforced the frame with 3/16 tube stock thats all for now
OMG RAV4 FINALLY WORKS ON THE OFF ROAD MOUNTAIN😅😅😅😅😅 HOW FUN
Awesome build! I want to do the same lift to my 05 but i'm curious how your alignment angles are? Does the steering return to center on its own? How does the car drive at higher speeds. Super sick rav!
No problem with the alignment, but I had to add front camber bolts to get everything into specs. The steering reacts exactly like before.. and same thing for handling.
bad ass man
Great job speaking english and thanks for the video, take care. Tim from outside Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Nice Rav. Where did you get the skid plate?
I did it myself.
Hard bottom, car didnt even know it was in a river. Also, no good reason to speed up once in the water. Nice rav, like my 98
Offset on your wheels?
-12
@@Trail-Warrior just curious did you also use wheel spacers? I wanna buy rims with 0 offset but stores are telling me it won't work because it interferes with the caliber.
@@kurt9494 No wheel spacers, but I had to grind the front calipers a little bit.
@@Trail-Warrior got it👍🏻appreciate the response
Is this a TRD?
No, there was no RAV4 with TRD edition in 2001.
Awesome little rig!
Unibody limiting traction
This is an awesome RAV4. Well done.
I have a awd second gen. What mods did you do to yours?
3.5'' lift kit with Old Man Emu springs + 40mm spacers. 2.4L engine swap. 1st gen RAV4 transmission and t-case swap = 4.93 final drive ratio and center differential locker. Celica GT-Four SPEC stage 1 clutch kit. Torsen type 2 rear limited slip differential that came off a Lexus RX300. Front aluminum skid-plate. Sway-bars delete. 225/75/16 BFG mud terrain KM3 tires that add another 1.5 inch ground clearance. Over axle rear exhaust routing, etc.
You change rav4?
Yes, my black one was extremely rotten on the under carriage. I got this one for a really good price. So I've swapped all my mods from the black RAV4 to the blue one.
@@Trail-Warrior I see that you really like this model, did you consider other options, such as a very customized car subaru forester or something more powerful like a nissan patrol y61?
@@elfandre6498 I always owned Toyota's only. My dream vehicle is a series 70 Land Cruiser, but they were sold only for 3 years in Canada... so they are extremely rare. Money wise; the RAV4 is a good choice for me right now. It is extremely reliable and the parts are still available everywhere for cheap. It is FUN to drive and I love it. With all the mods made to my black RAV4, it was logical to me to get the same model to swap all my mods to the newer one.
I have a lifted 2007 taco with Arb bumpers and 33 inch tires. My 98 rav 5spd is way more fun to drive. A diesel 70 series would be nice😮
