no probs dave....i,v got winches front and rear and a thing called a ground anchor which is the bar you see on the front...there is a large spade/blade attatches to it and when the winch pulls it sinks into the ground and you have an anchor point

dave cos4x4 · 30-12-2007, 10:46 PM

Kevin Sharp

impressive stuff.

i would rather go racing around a track though.

marco polo · 30-12-2007, 10:48 PM

great stuff Kev

Adam_BlackRS · 30-12-2007, 10:50 PM

When did you switch to a landy ? and why ?

Kevin Sharp · 30-12-2007, 10:52 PM

gareth...

dave....we had a guy out with a £500 range rover today who does track stuff..bog standard with no locking diffs and he said....feck me this is better fun than the track...and i have to agree...had more fun in my landrover this year than anything else i have had

i like doing track stuff but lost interest as you spend half the day queing and not enough driving.....plus offroading is mucho cheaper...and i am scottish

GARETH T · 30-12-2007, 10:53 PM

did the SJ break all the time? tinka toys

badnews · 30-12-2007, 10:54 PM

because the feckin suzuki was never out the workshop

in the last month i owned it i bent two axles and blew 2 transfer boxes

they seem ok until you fit 33" tyres then its game over for them

GARETH T · 30-12-2007, 10:55 PM

this is the best offroader in my gang, 4.6 derv nissan patrol! its a bit big, and a bit heavy, but it NEVER breaks

Kevin Sharp · 30-12-2007, 10:57 PM

badnews...feckin hell how much does that weigh?

Adam_BlackRS · 30-12-2007, 10:58 PM

Kev, Is yours the TDI ? or V8 ?

Kevin Sharp · 30-12-2007, 11:00 PM

Adam...Tdi mate

gareth, does the patrol have a lsd in as standard?

david · 30-12-2007, 11:08 PM

Looks like a good laugh. We had an old lhd v8 RR on knoblies that we ragged round some spare ground but ive never tried it properly.

AndyGranger · 30-12-2007, 11:11 PM

Whats the situation with the lanes though?
99% of the lanes we ride are not exactly legal
But on a bike they,ve got no chance of catching you but it,s a different story in a car

andycos · 30-12-2007, 11:28 PM

broke the crownwheel and pinion or the detroit itself?....if he broke the detroit..well done

its actually the shock loading on the tranny parts that break shafts etc from wheelspinning then suddenly getting a grip on something....not really to do with power
