We go back out to Citrus after a week of rain to go explore new trails that we have not done before and find some holes that were deeper than they seemed. Subscribe for more offroad and overland adventures and I'll see you guys in the next video!

any water crossings like that, I just bear right so that my airbox is higher up. Never take a center line in a puddle you don't know how deep, glad the bronco is good!
The badlands might have drain floors but its mostly just for the footwells. Wait until he sees how much water and mud is underneath all plastic interior panels, lol.
Yeah I know, not to much water had gone into the Bronco though and so far no musty smells inside so I think we might be good lol
I am looking forward taking delivery of my 2023 Bronco Everglades! I will definitely take it swimming!
Nice option, the Everglades a great package.
@@outlandishoverland I know and I am going to do so many upgrades before it's first true adventure. Number one and first on the list is the tie rods. It's just kinda sad they stopped production and any new orders of the Everglades for 2023. Who knows what the future for that model in 2024.
You might want to check the front and rear differential fluids, because the breathers were likely submerged.
Front differential fluid is on the back end of the engine right next to the transmission breather, we are changing the transmission fluid this week to check and see. The rear is fine because the breather is where the gas door is at, the water didn't get that high on the rear end, so we are for sure good on the rear.
@@outlandishoverlandHow did it turn out?
@@Legos37 It lived, the front diff, trans and engine oil were contaminated. The engine oil we changed right there on the trail, but it is still kicking.
I think max water height on Sasquatch is about 33.5 inches, roughly tire height. Do you think if the Bronco kept to that height, things would have been okay?
@@Legos37 Absolutely we just didn't realize how deep this hole was it looked very deceiving.
Did the same thing with my Bronco but even slightly deeper. Had to get a whole new engine and drivetrain through insurance claim. $1,000 deductible $16,000 worth of work. But she's back and better than ever.
Oh yikes luckily your insurance covered it 😅
@@outlandishoverland The lesson I learned is never attempt an obstacle until you watch someone else do it first lol. I just put some Raptor grill lights and Oracle triple fog lights on recently and love them. Hope all is well with your Bronco.
It was at the offroad park in Gilbert Minnesota last Memorial weekend. I'm still going to go back. But definitely staying out of the mud pits 🤣
@@mawage666 Haha Nice! Yes the Bronco did survive we flushed all the fluids and have had no issues since this incident. But definitely agree watch someone else do it first or if you can use the stick test.
How do you get your insurance to cover that?
Love the content, Keep it up!
Some BOLD water work goin’ on! 🤙
Thats what we are all about 😛
Dat Dodge got spirit ..
Nice adventure video.
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
I feel. For that bronco electronics... At least new alternator 😅
No electronic or alternators were harmed in the video
What bracket did you use for the GMRS ghost antenna to mount it there beside the ditch lights. I like that.
Here is the link for the bracket on how we mounted the GMRS radio. midlandusa.com/collections/micromobile-accessories/products/micromobile-mxta22-ditch-light-extension-bracket
@@outlandishoverland You rock! Just started following.
Thanks for the follow!
I’d be changing all the fluids, transfer case, diffs and engine oil. Plus you don’t realize all the electronics you submerged. That muddy water does a lot of damage.
We did change all the fluids. Electronics are all perfectly fine after this event.
Dude that was a close one for the bronco lol
Yeah it was 😅
@@outlandishoverland dude if the engine seizes up…. Coyote swap 😜
I'll say what everyone keeps saying to me.... ITS A BRONCO, NOT A BOAT ! hahaha
It floats like a boat 😂
Funny part it my homie in a 4Runner 2wd on 33s made it through that spot on 16 when it was dry, where did you guys almost sink at so I can avoid those spots? Lmao
It was off of trail 11 where the deep water holes are.
There’s some good and bad going on here, but no matter… Are y’all going to be at Ol’ Florida this weekend?
Always is lol and no we will be camping up in North GA
@@outlandishoverland that’s always nice. Have an awesome time. We should hit the trails one of these days!
Yeah for sure I'm always down, I usually post on my IG story when we go out riding
That seems like a bit much for what rigs/setup you guys have at the time
Well we didn't know the depth of the water hole, if we didn't we wouldn't have gone through lol
You are all wild lol
It's what we do around here lol
Play time.
What exhaust do you have?
I have a custom exhaust that I had made, full details of what exactly it is in this video as well as a bunch more sound bits of it. kzhead.info/sun/ZrqaerCOnJ2dlIE/bejne.html
@@outlandishoverland thank you !!
OMG Been there.
Not a fun time 😅
I thought the dude had a snake in his hand 7:20
That's a big snake 🤣
hey has your horn everysounded like a cheap horn after getting it wet?
Yes, every time. It happens with the black Ranger you see in the video. #JustRangerThings
Awesome. Yea it happened to me yesterday. Thx for the vids. Love your content good to see an average joe ford ranger .tired of watching súper modded rangers lol.
@@cane_ranger1835 Haha thank you yeah nothing crazy done to this Ranger
Had a quick question do you know if any rangers leaning a bit lower on the rear driver side after a lift?
@@cane_ranger1835 No, have not heard of that happening. Maybe you have a defect in your lift?
can you review a Back Seat Cover Backrest Protector Compatible with Ford Bronco 2021 2022 ? we will send you free sample
Yes, we can do that. You can message us at our Instagram @outlandishoverland
I have videos of 16 - 14 from 2 or so weeks ago cake walk for my jku
We didn't do 14 at all really this trip.
“This is for KZhead not OnlyFans” 😂
Not meant as a dig, but I've been at Citrus and these videos don't do some of these obstacles justice as they are much hairier looking in-person then they look on camera. Also, you don't get the sense of what the driver sees (or doesn't see).
Absolutely, the majority of offroad obstacles the camera makes it way less serious than it actual is.
Never buy a used Bronco.
I would say that with majority of vehicles. Most people barely change their oils or even do your basic maintenance.
