I have taken down the names of the road where you turn off to this secret ( non secret now) track and inserted the GPS co-ordinates. Will be going down there later towards the end of the year with two other vehicles and their families. We all have winches. One way we stop water from entering inside the cars is to use Gaffer tape all around the door seals and the climb in and out via the window/s. Works every time
@Alex.G9 жыл бұрын
Steinwaygrande Holy shit man that Gaffer tape idea is the best! Can't believe I never thought of that! We have since been back down that track after much more rain and holy whack it's muddy! Should be alright with a snorkel, winches and a bit of experience.
@steinwaygrande39719 жыл бұрын
+Intents Offroad Hi mate. Yes the gaffer tape around the doors and tailgate prevents any water coming in. Totally dry inside even when the water is lapping at the windows. Bit trick y getting in and out but sure as hell saves a lot of water damage and an expensive insurance claim. Keep several rolls of tape in the car at all times.

@Alex.G8 жыл бұрын
With some 4wds, such as GQ patrols, you have to hop out and turn the dials in the middle of the front wheels to lock it into 4wd. With the auto hub, all you have to do is move the transfer case into 4wd and they automatically lock for you. Then to unlock them you put the transfer into 2wd and back the car up a metre or 2 until you hear them click out. Unfortunately they tend to play up once in a while and may lock in on the road, or clunk in and out which is what mine started doing

@mimixownzall9 жыл бұрын
Intents Offroad It has been deemed the evil fuel by the eco maniacs. It probably started with us not jumping on the bandwagon back in WW2. Almost all of our stuff, even tanks, ran on petrol fuel. You do see some cars like the VW TDI but that's about it. Only thing we use diesels on are for heavy duty use. You can get your 3/4 ton and up pickups in diesels but not small pickups (as a general rule). Part of this problem is that diesel is more expensive due to its heavy taxing to get money from the trucking companies to help pay for the supposed road damage semis cause (though studies have shown this is a fable).
