Wow tanx iron man for de trip hope u had an o sum drive home

I just did a tour through skeleton coast, Damaraland & Kaokoland .. proper territory

The words below say it all.

How about installing with extended upper arm and stabilizer link. And also put a drop kit. Was it can resolved the issues?

It’s official, Suzuki will discontinue the Jimny. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o9xmipyY2a-yYpc.htmlsi=kcBk5XWDWIsEH_q6

Hey there, are you planning to do a setup for a 5 door Jimny at time soon?

Oom Kalfyn is my gunsteling ☺️

hey guys, love the build. Just one question, where did you guys get the matte radio trim? im looking to do the same to mine. Thanks in advance!

Well informed tour guide in those caves

This is so dam cool

Would like to know what jackel or dog species u think that was?????

Fantastic content genta!! quick one...thoughts on an old defender? We all know it's capable,but have you guys heard any horror stories in terms of reliability? Don't want a money pit lol

Fabulous Adventure.

I have also made the switch from diesel to petrol after owning pajero 3.2 did and mitsubishi triton td and nissan navara diesels d40 2.5 and the np 300 2.3 twin turbo.Hard to find petrol 4wd 's in australia as every manufacturer have changed to diesel but found a immaculate toyota hilux n70 4.0 v6 petrol and loving it,dont think i'll be going back to diesel

I think on pavement only is ok. But if you do offroad its gonna be the problem.

Nice Adventures

Mmmm...spare tyres, jerry cans, water container, highlift jack, rooftop tent...seems few vehucles will be truely legal🙄🤔

Amazing and well documented trip.. I did this trip two weeks ago went up to Agra Fria and back to Windhoek. Next time hope to make it to Kunene Mouth . We nearly ran out of fuel likely we found some in Terrance Bay.

I agree with driving being part of our education system...

I don’t own any of these vehicles but own a Land Cruiser 105, so based on your description it sounds halfway in between the two vehicles in your video. Your description of the 70s series driving experience reminds me of a Land Rover Defender 110… This is a great video, very informative!

6:07 The Jimny is only 1500cc & 100Hp. Rev the heck out of it when overtaking and you’ll be just fine. It’s like a 1970’s Italian sports car, you have to MAKE it go fast. -- The ones who know little to nothing about 4x4ing think the Jimny is a joke, a toy. The ones who know a bit more know that the Jimny is massively impressive from the shelf. If diff-lockers are added it turns to a furious maintain goat. I know that from experience as I’ve done it. Adding stiffer Nitro shocks from Ironman made the ride better and increased its capability as well.

29:40 Yes, fuel capacity is issue with the Jimny but I am confident it can be solved with jerrycans. - Right? I have double diff-lockers in my 2022 Jimny and they transformed the Jimny from very capable to a beast of a mountain goat. In combination with the Nitro shock absorbers from Ironman it will perform even better when in the jungle. My thanks to Ironman for yet another great video.

After watching and understanding this I can say I’m a proud Ironman supporter. ❤️

I’m a Gen4 Jimny owner. I did not want a lift kit, but a firmer suspension. I watched this video after I learned that two other brand wasn’t what I wanted. One brand was ridiculously overpriced by the local dealer and did not have the shocks at home, nor did he want to sell me only the shocks without the 40mm lift springs. The second brand had the complete kit at a better price than the first but refused to sell me only the shocks. Your representative had no issue selling me the shocks and included a steering damper as well in the price. That was a pleasant surprise. I travel light in my Jimny. I don’t need the most advanced shocks. Standard Nitro’s are good enough for my kind of driving. I wanted a slightly more firm suspension, and I got it! The ride is slightly stiffer in a straight line on tarmac. It is a lot stiffer when cornering at higher speeds, and it doesn’t dip as much when braking hard from high speeds. I got just what I wanted and I am very happy with the choice and purchase made. No regrets whatsoever. My thanks to you for creating a great product!

Is it an "E" licence or "B"? I am not aware of an "E" licence.

So agree - if kids were taught driving skills at school, thousands of lives would be saved each year

Can we se more of these please Iron man 4x4

Now what about EC1 and EC that is better than EB?

Renewable licences are a road tax, and should be tested in the Constitutional Court for legality.

I have an EB, got my K52 in Jan 1980, and that was converted to EB in Worcester when the time came. They asked if I towed and I confirmed. We were given road use & safety training between 1968 and 1979 at school. I passed my K53 in 1992 with 98%.

Older people do not get an eb license by default. In the good old days you could tow a caravan with the old code 8 until the government found a new way to make money

Also worth noting, a fine is not the worst case scenario here. If you are involved in an accident with the 750kg+ trailer/caravan attached to your vehicle your insurance will also not pay out your claims since you are not licensed to be towing that weight. Could potentially cost you hundreds of thousands!

School driving lessons/subject won’t work because the past rate is only 30%, at least at license department it is 80-90% 😂 But yes I agree, should be a skill taught to everyone and schools would be a great place

I must say, I don’t know about the limitation of my code 8 license until I bought a camping trailer and realised that I would need to upgrade because I can’t tow a trailer larger than 750kg with it. They must scrap code 8. My car barely qualifies for it as well (Discovery 4).

I had to pass out for EB license last year for towing a caravan over 750KG . Had to write leaners and pass out with an caravan attached to the vehicle

Hi Mic thanks for the video, sad part is you have to redo your leaners as well as the license i have been told at the licensing department to get an EB and there NO difference in the test written and driving for the B to EB

Thank you for the video. Always interesting to see different perspectives. We have enjoyed our Hilux's VERY much over the last 20 years. Below a breakdown of our last 6 Overland vehicles and a short summary of each: 2.7 Petrol - Thirsty but good vehicle. Reliable. 3.0 KZTE - Very nice offroad, but don't tow with it, as you struggle to maintain speed of 110+. Overtaking requires a project plan! (It could have done better with an intercooler) 4.0 V6 - Wow, awesome motor - THIRSTY. Need to get used to the auto box, liked to hunt gears. Towed like a dream! 3.0 D4D - VERY nice vehicle. Very capable. Good for towing. Had wonderful overland trips with this vehicle. - Will buy it again if I can find it with low mileage! 2.8 GD-6 - WOW! Really, really nice vehicle!! Again wonderful overland trips, tows nicely. NOTHING wrong with it! Will definitely buy one again! Land Cruiser 79 4.5 V8 - Since this is our last Overland vehicle purchase, I decided on a 'never die workhorse'. It is expensive for the luxuries you get. You spend a LOT of money kitting it out, more than the Hilux would. The V8 motor is a jewel. AWESOME!!! I chose the LC for its absolute ruggedness. It will last us 15 to 20 years. Don't think the Hilux will last as gracefully as the Cruiser. (My opinion), and to replace an Overland vehicle while on Pension is a money pit. Rather spend once, and a little more and have a solid vehicle for the next 15-20 years. This was my logic in any case. Like Mic says, the Land Cruiser you need to actively drive it. Focus. It is a hell of a lot of FUN to drive. I loved my 2.8 GD6, but I *LOVE* my Cruiser Either vehicle, will take you to Kenya and back! - The LC will do so many many times over! PS, my wife did NOT like the "Plaasbakkie" since the idea surfaced, even when I bought it. It was ugly, not enough cup holders, etc etc etc. While on our first Botswana trip, she admitted the LC was a GOOD BUY. She loves the Cruiser now ;-)

What an epic, awesome episode...... Magic, thanks for the share 👀🤙

Baie netjies gedoen

Hoekom engels julle virraaiers julle is afrikaans julle bevorder die moordenaars van die virlede ken jy nie die geskiedenis nie dan moet jy wakker word jy is n volksviraaier dan wil julle arikaners genoem word maar wat die tyd kom waar daar n skoonmaak tyd kom 😂

Kindly asking is this skeleton place same as Bermuda Triangle because I hear story about lost ships and plains people missing not found?.

Love the video, what ranger midel was it that broke the side shaft? Im a born namibian living in pta, need to do that trip one day.

Absolutely brilliant. Good balance between the presenter interaction with the audience and the presentation of nature to the audience. The knowledge of the tour operators are phenomenal and should this video have been 3 hours long to hear all the knowledge, it would have been the best 3 hours spent ever. Thanks for this presentation for us to watch.

Excuse my ignorance, In the case of driving through water, wouldn't the water get in through the Drainage of the air filter ? My car is Nissan Patrol Y61 with the 3.0 crdi engine. I ask because I would like to install a Snorkel but mainly because sometimes the street of my city get flooded.

100%

Beautiful. It doesn't even look like 2021 series so epic

Great adventure, amazing country..

Can’t wait to watch this!

One of the best ones to date thanks again to the Ironman Team
