How to winch out of the mud, Extreme offroad mud bog - WARN 8274

[MrLocoruiz]

Nice video i got a warn 8274 winch for 200 us dollars now i know IM GONNA KEEP IT !!!!!!!!!!

[MKDDREAMSTAH]

is that petrol or diesel ?

[MrMichaelStangl]

Where did you find the left hand drive truck? I have 5 Toyota LiteAce and a Suzuki Carry but would love to get a LC left hand.

[lshobie]

@MrMichaelStangl I had to make it. Those carry's are fun, I brought some of those in as well a few years back.

[MrMichaelStangl]

@lshobie I'm in Ontario and use a company out of Toronto to bring my trcks in from Japan, who did you use to import your trucks? The Islands have them LH, but can not find anyone to import.

[lshobie]

@MrMichaelStangl I used to import them myself - Adventure Auto Imports, shut the doors at a good time when the market was just flooding. Only brought in cruisers, some suzukis and BMW's for fun.

[MrMichaelStangl]

@lshobie Doing some work on the suzuki carry, looking for ball joints, were did you get your parts? Thanks for taking the time to answer.

[byoungizzle]

Great video! What is the curb weight of your vehicle and the capacity of your winch? Do you think you would have had the same results i.e. a free vehicle with a come along? Minus the hard work of winching yourself out haha

[lshobie]

@byoungizzle weighs about 5400lbs and the winch with upgrades probably pulls about 14000 plus but have never measured it. depends on what the comealong is rated at and if you have snatch blocks. that pull wouldnt have happened for me with a comalong unless i had some serious cable, pulleys and a couple of days:)

[ChuckmeisterC]

@lshobie Nice one Mate! Kids were grinning from ear to ears. I wish my GF was as dirty as the LHS of the truck!!

[lshobie]

@ChuckmeisterC lol, well said!

[TheTwitch96]

the thing is more of a plow loool sick video

[ebbtuber]

I'll bet someone had a bath when they got home .. .. ..

[444buffo]

next time just try using the winch. your wheels just kept digging down. if you would have free wheeled your tires would have popped up on top of the mud

[jbfhz246]

see the difference at 1.28 and 5.12 . tell me the difference

[lshobie]

@jbfhz246 hmm, winch speed?  What are you getting at?

[jbfhz246]

@lshobie the 4x4 drag all the plants on its way and clear the path

[lshobie]

@jbfhz246 lol, ya i see what you mean - that was a tough pull.

[leirgauk]

[2k11pro4x]

Cute kids dude... Sweet rig too. Where in Canada are you? I'm also a Canuck.

[lshobie]

@2k11pro4x I'm in the Ottawa area, thanks for watching!

[johannes208]

ohh yea landcuiser or a mercedes g just awesome..very nice vid!!

[lshobie]

@johannes208 I do like the G wagons, would be my next choice if I couldnt get a cruiser or a patrol.

[Pigdoga]

you yanks should be driving more of these landcruisers they are bullestproof, better than a jeep

[lshobie]

@Pigdoga You don't have to tell me! Oh, and I'm a Canuck!

[Pigdoga]

@lshobie oh thats ok im Australian and down here we dont mind Canadians, We get sick of big mouth Yanks though that think there Shit dont stink and think they are the greatest country in the world blah blah blah...

[jpedlow]

@lshobie Better than a jeep! Ouch ;) Seeing how this is renfrew, I'll makesure to pull your truck out with my 'lowly' cherokee if im ever out and about ;) heheh take care

[lshobie]

@jpedlow Awesome, would be glad to go wheeling with you - send me an email and lets go! Thanks for watching!

[stifoam]

nice rig dude!!!shouldn't you let the winch cool after the long pulls? sure did take alot to get outta that hole!But now you can go through it again easy=p

[lshobie]

@stifoam ya i should, wanted to see how it would work - had a spare motor in the truck:) thanks for watching!

[stifoam]

@lshobie haha ah awesome. I was wondering what kinds of modifications you did to your winch?

[lshobie]

@stifoam Check out my warn 8274 videos, I have a complete breakdown on youtube now and will be adding my rebuild and modifications video in the next couple of weeks!

[009ijn]

GREAT JOB MAN

[lshobie]

@009ijn Thanks!

[jacklye100]

Sir that u kids..soo cute.....hehehe but sir come c tehe brneo safari4x4 chelange..u can c the extreme winching

[lshobie]

@jacklye100 I love the borneo challenge, I want to do it! Thanks for watching!

[maketzueioletaalla]

You should really buy a 4x4 tractor!

[lshobie]

@maketzueioletaalla LOL, that cruiser is my tractor!

[maketzueioletaalla]

@lshobie then... it sucks.

[lshobie]

@maketzueioletaalla Not sure what you mean - but thanks for watching!

[crosbiewobbles]

That is the most halarious whinching job i have ever seen, you can tell it was your first time! By spinning the wheels like that you just added so much more unnecessary strain to the whinch.

Next time try keeping the clutch in while reving it and let the whinch pull you out without trying to sink your car further in the mud and bulldozing the mud out with you.

[lshobie]

@crosbiewobbles Ok, you come and show me how it's done! Thanks for watching!

[killerbeee16]

@crosbiewobbles You a pro or something? Last time I remember in this kind of case you gotta be on the gas. He wasnt sinking it was lifting.

[LORDingly]

Cute kids!

[aryowailangitoyo97]

who is the one pulling the truck

[lshobie]

@aryowailangitoyo97 no one is pulling it - the winch is attached to a tree.

[TropicalConfederate]

Need to lock that front axle. Less need for that winch. Don't make it work too hard. ;-)

[lshobie]

@TropicalConfederate It does have an arb air locker i the front, was on most of the time but when I was just coming out the winch remote cable hit the switch and shut it off - so that's why it didn't look like I had one. But to be very honest - the lockers did very little in that clay.

[devonst13]

did the truck come with the winch?

[lshobie]

@devonst13 no, I modified it and installed it. I'll be making a vid of the winch mods I am doing this spring.

[samuel1776]

Great video especially at the end when the kid says "Good". Great truck, great winch, really put that winch to work.

[lshobie]

@samuel1776 Thanks for your positive comments! 

[lshobie]

Superswamper TSL 36X13X16's. Pretty good in the mud but fricking horrible on the road. I have to install the tires at the trail head now because they are so out of balance - and yes I have tried beads, balls, powders - they just can't be balanced I guess. Thanks for looking!

[lspuris]

what kind of tires you got?

[lshobie]

@lspuris Super swamper 13x36 - i love them and I hate them!

[6Camel6Finger6]

i would of set the anchor point higher if possible, that way it lifts as it pulls.

[lshobie]

@6Camel6Finger6 Ya, but not possible, I would have ripped the tree out. Thanks for watching!

[6Camel6Finger6]

@lshobie ahh, thats what i figured.

cheers

[jwcheeta]

i hope you weren't thinking of making it through that without your winch.

[lshobie]

@jwcheeta Hell no, I drove it in on purpose to get it stuck and try the winch out, I knew there was no going through it. Thanks for watching!

[rioaguanegra]

It's an aquatic bulldozer

[lshobie]

@rioaguanegra LOL, now that is funny!

[dag00ber]

wow that thing just keeps tugin even under that rediculously heavy load!

[lshobie]

@dag00ber yes, I couldn't believe that it did it on a straight line pull with no snatch block. I saw a rough calculator once but I can't find it anymore, it gave a rough idea of how much the pull is when stuck in certain terrain with X size tires/weight of truck etc etc. My truck is 5600 pounds, 36 inch tires, and it was in clay pulling up to the top of the bumper which is alot higher than stock. So - how much would that pull be? Well over 10,000 pounds I bet.

[dag00ber]

@lshobie wow thats crazy! i just bought a used warn 8274 off a guy here for 500$. just have to mount it on my jeep yj. after seing this vid i bet it could get me out of anything i get stuck in.

[lshobie]

@dag00ber well don't forget that I modified the winch - I cut the drum off which is a 3 inch wide drum, I replaced it with a 1.5 inch solid shaft - so effectively it has twice the pulling power - but it is a little slower now. Good deal on the winch!.

[dag00ber]

@lshobie yeah i want to keep the speed of it so i dont think i'll be doing that. are you using 100 foot or a 150 foot line? the one i got has 100 feet of synthetic line. it should be more than enough to pull my 2.5L yj with a 4" lift and 33's.

[lshobie]

@dag00ber I have 125 or synthetic masterpull line, I could probably put 200 feet on it now because when I narrowed the drum I also made it 3 inches wider. Best thing to do is use a snatch block on big pulls - but I am sure it will haul your butt out easy.

[stop2think]

Buddy I love your truck I've never seen one of those on the road in Canada where did it come from ??

[chrisdjonestube]

Is that a snowplow blade? Nope. Just a bumper.

[lshobie]

LOL, ya no kidding, didn't think I'd have an issue like that - but then again that "snowplow" is 3 feet off the ground - so most of the time I don't have an issue with it.

Thanks for watching!

[pkewanu]

Toyota Land Cruiser hzj the best 4wd for offroad! nice vid

[lshobie]

Thanks!

[TheBlazen001]

i'm in canada too,what year is this LC 2004??it is from port hope mine??how come u get plates??i want bring here LC from europe but,have to by 15 year or older that is sucks.but i hope one day i can drive here in Ottawa LC 105!!

[JBBunno]

Nice Work

[lshobie]

Thanks!

[sahmuhtoo]

if you were smark, you would get more clearance for your LC and secondly and more important, you should have had the boys lay down on the front seat in case the winch cable broke and came rocketing into the windshield.

[lshobie]

Hi there, it has 4.5 inches of lift and 36 inch tires - how much more should I lift it:)

The cable is actually synthetic rope, when it breaks it falls to the ground, but just to be safe I always put a heavy blanket on the cable - so I'd rather have my kids in the truck than outside where I can't control them - but I understand your concern.

Thanks for watching!

[mduran17]

that video most called: efectivity of using winch!

[lshobie]

Thanks!

[MegaG15]

Just some soap... and you'll be fine... Happy cleaning :D (cya next week:P) haha..

Nah just kiddin... Awesome vid... I Enjoyed it :) Love the LC

[lshobie]

Thanks very much, the kids always like getting dirty!

[MARULANBOY]

i love that tray man its soooo nice nice ute i love em

[lshobie]

People around here don't like it - but they also like fords:)

[gfb100442]

Nice job! The boys + dad + Cruiser = Quality time

[lshobie]

Agreed, that's the stuff they will remember for ever.

[scott198044]

nice job man for a second there i was thinking u was stuk...nice car to..strong choice

[lshobie]

I had my doubts for a minute as well, very impressed with that winch.

[rigged100]

Where are you? That was amazing, i cant believe it pulled you out of that without smoking! I have a HZJ78 with the 1HD-FTE (factory Turbo diesel) Aust. spec. It yours the 1HZ? Sounded like it, slow, but always pulls. Sick video

[lshobie]

Hi there, thanks! I'm in Canada, that winch is awesome, going to make some more mods as well. My truck is 5600 pounds, had 37 X12.5 tires and it was in very thick and hard clay up and over the front bumper, that winch must have been pulling atleast 12-14K pounds.

Ya, it's a 1HZ with a turbo and intercooler.

[josedacosta22]

que muchacho mas burro de pana siempre com la direcsion recta para salir mais facil sim forzar mucho el guienche es jirando la direcsion para que los cauchos agarrem mejor

pajuo.....!!!!!

[lshobie]

I have no idea what you said, but thanks very much for your response:)

[JeepForever]

it s not stuck with  super swampers :)

[lshobie]

LOL, they digg man!

[Gordy90LPG]

good video ,what was the cable anchored on? ,aint the steering wheel on the wrong side !!!!!!!

[lshobie]

LOL, well, it is the right side for me:) The cable is on a large hardwood tree.

[Hiluxtaco]

Love the video!

It looked like your kids had a blast! And isn't that what it's all about? :-)

~ From a jealous 'Merican

[lshobie]

Thanks! Don't be jealous, just buy a cruiser and put a diesel engine in it - then you have your truck!

[rjmontesdeoca]

warn 8274 excelent!

[lshobie]

Ya I love that winch!

[arpoot]

Hey, nice video, I'm glad you are having fun with your winch.

I noticed that you told your kids to get inside the vehicle, in case the winch cable snapped. In fact, if the winch cable (or the shackle or whatever you attached it to) had snapped, there is a significant chance that it would have gone through the windshield, and through anyone in the way.

The safest place to be is perpendicular to the cable (on the side). Putting a sandbag in the middle can slow a snapped cable too.

[lshobie]

Thanks for the comments. Special circumstances require special tactics, for example - try letting a 3 and 5 year old run free while you are winching - where do you think they will end up?

Also, what you can't see is a mat on the rope, and it is synthetic rope which stores very little energy when under load - it pretty much just drops when it breaks.

Thanks for the comments though. Keep watching!

[Ironwind1972]

Now that was some muck. Must be fun to go out with your kids. I'd like to one day too!

[lshobie]

Ya that was stuck pretty good, I did a rough estimate on the pull and it was probably pulling about 12-13000 pounds of truck and mud. The kids love this truck we have a blast in it.

Thanks!

[takeoff1212]

that's one sweet truck you've got, good kids too!

[lshobie]

Ya, the kids love the cruiser and getting stuck, we are into winter now so they are getting ready for the snowmobiles! Thanks very much.

[ptngo1]

Love those kids:)

[lshobie]

Ya - they are cute eh:)

[dawantedgangsta]

dosen't look like you have a locker, your front wheel hardly spun...

[lshobie]

You noticed eh:) Actually I do have a front locker, but just as I was coming out the cable from the winch remote flipped the front locker switch off. I did re-engage just as I was just about out of the hole. I am mounting an in cab winch control switch this winter:)

Thanks for looking!

[dawantedgangsta]

In cab winch control are real handy for those hard stuff, nice ideas...

cheers mate

[lshobie]

Just hard to find time to do it all eh mate - not enough time in the day!

[meethed]

AMAZING WINCH! I need to get one of these for my Jeep

[lshobie]

Check out the local for sales - easy to find!

[saturbo1107]

Wooow i love your video men and you got the perfect truck for this. my rating ***** =)

[lshobie]

Thanks very much!

[luloadventure]

I love this winch... 8274 rules!!!

[lshobie]

Damn right Lulo!
