Shaun and Graham's legendary rigs: Shorty and the OG Dirty 30 together on the road for the first time in over 15 years! Before the biggest trip of the year, there's 2,000km of Outback Queensland to get through. This is the calm before the storm, a fly-on-the-wall look at how the trip actually starts, the country in between, and the pubs that made the miles worth it. Next week, it kicks off proper. The mission: reach the northernmost point of Australia without crossing the Jardine River, reopening an old track to a remote river system untouched for years. 👇 Drop it below: 📺 How long have you been following the boys? ____ Chapters: 00:00 Intro 00:37 On the Road again 01:44 Shorty and Dirty 30 Back together 02:43 The Trip Begins 04:05 First Campsite 07:53 Heading North 09:20 12 Weeks Ago 11:02 First Pub Belyando Crossing 12:53 Kincrome Giveaway 13:42 Making Miles 14:28 El Arish Tavern 18:11 End Thoughts, On to Cape York 19:03 Coming Soon… 📱 Follow us: Instagram @4wd247 Facebook @4wd247 TikTok @4wd247 Shaun, Graham Cahill, Jock & Jesse — formerly with 4WD Action — have been delivering Australia's best off-road content for 20+ years.

Am I the only one watching this episode feeling a little emotional? 🥹 Seeing the old rigs again, and seeing how Shaun and Graham have gotten older… and realising that so have I. I was only 22 when I started watching 4WD Action. Now I’m 34. Somehow, this show, Shaun and Graham have been a part of my life for more than a decade. So many memories are tied to watching these episodes. It really makes you realise how short life is. ❤️ In another 20 years, there’ll be new faces behind the wheel, new rigs, and a whole new generation taking over the show. But for those of us who grew up watching Shaun and Graham, these old episodes will always be something special. Thanks for the memories, legends. 🥹❤️
We are so back, the band is back together 🔥🔥
I cant be the only one that thinks the boys look genuinely happy to be back together in the og rigs
Just missing two legends. Roothy and Milo
15 years we have asked, begged, pleaded for this to happen and it has finally happened!!! Cheers fellas bringing back core memories of the past 👌
way back in the day i watched the old disks from the mag im all smiles seeign these old rigs a perfect beer night again
Finally the 2 legends back to together what a epic episode been dying to watch this and good to see shorty and the og 30 back
6:52 that’s was an epic transition. Great video guys!
Closest I’ve ever come to watching a magazine. What a throwback
So much nostalgia. Loved buying the magazine with dvds back in the day. Love some of the OG's.
Never expected shorty to come back dream come true
I’ve been watching for 14 years. Currently 22 years old. My first ever magazine and dvd I bought featured both the shorty and the dirty 30 together in the cape. This episode not only brings nostalgia but makes me feel whole again. 2 legends with the rigs back at it again. Uppa boys love these videos together 💙💙
Remember watching all the DVD's that came with the magazines way back when 4wd monthly was as a thing, epic to see the og rigs on another adventure.
this was my childhood, i remember I was Six when I found you guys from youtube. Absolutely fell in love with the 30 and 4wding in general
Ahh the old rigs. I remember watching Graham on his first trip. In migrating to a new computer, I have just found a whole folder of the old DVDs I loaded onto my computer back in the days when computers had DVD readers, and watched one the other day. I must admit I enjoyed the less extreme-challenge style on tracks that were more relatable to what I still do. It is great to see the old rigs back. I am still running the 1996 Prado 90, twin locked bar work etc that I have had for over 20 years for club trips, with a 2016 Prado 150 for off-grid touring trips, often towing a small teardrop camper on the tight New Zealand backroads.
Thank you Graham and Shano. This week I made a Big decision on Monday to go back to a job I haven't done in 15 yrs and seeing the old girls back together has made my decision easier
I've been watching since the Roothy days and seeing these back together is heart-warming. Still have alot of my old DVDs put away ❤
19:10 ear to ear throwback moment. Please we need Jamie 🙏 what a trio yous are
Yes I’m 62 and always into 4wd,s Something about your chemistry and sense of fun that has kept me watching since the rally days of 4wd action .
Two old legends back together, oh, and the OG Dirty 30 and Shorty as well. They both look amazing, can't wait for the series
