You guys need to get snatch straps or kinetic ropes. It's much better when you are pulling out a stuck vehicle. It's a lot less shock load on recovery points. Good fun though, nice video.

We did use a Kinetic, at least on the Touareg V10 to T3

That Syncro is looking very Pinzgauer-esq! I used to have an 1989 LT35 in same colour….was just like driving a bus in that forward control front end design with huge steering wheel (no power steering) and what looked like a 3ft tall gear stick😬 🤣

Diff locks are great but simex extreme trekkers are what’s needed in the mud. I had a trayback king cab defender with unimog axles….hydraulic steering and the lot..Full lockers were great but had pit bull tyres that were too wide (rock crawler tyres) and was useless in mud……did drive over the tyres at Frickley though….never seen anyone else do it…. Best in mud was a truck I had with Detroit locker on rear with simex running 5 psi or summat daft with bead lockers…unstoppable! Get some better tyres lads!!!

They're on the list, although £1k on another set of tyres makes us feel a little sick

@@DarksideDevelopmentsnothing is cheap these days… My comment about tyres was more banter than advice. You guys clearly know what you are doing and it’s all about compromise. Good off-road usually sacrifices good on road….ok if you’re doing a winch challenge event and trailering a vehicle to the site but aggressive tyres on the tarmac are noisy, they vibrate and they wear down very quickly……you know all this…there is no perfect do-all setup but your vehicles are fine examples the closest you’ll get to this…..what you have done with the V10 is everything I would dream for in a modified 4x4👍🏻

Mate that tray back Defender sounds like an absolute Beast why did you get rid of it😂 can't beat an old Land Rover especially if they have diff lock then they are unstoppable triple locked disco or Defender challenge truck will literally go anywhere and yes I agree these tyres seem to be fat on the Touareg that's why they are getting stuck in the mud if they had insa turbos or like you said simex extreme trackers like on Land Rovers than they do a lot better. What was the truck you mentioned at the end of your comment. I still don't think you can beat an old Land Rover though they are so simple to work on and modifications are endless. A triple lock disco or Defender will literally go anywhere they are unstoppable beasts can't beat them😂
@tanks4lyfe5097 ай бұрын
That disco could have made it up that big hill if you were to give it more beans also the touaregs seem to be good at hills but not very good in the mud. Thats why you cant beat a landy.

Not tried the Cooper STT Pros, they look very similar to the Grabber X3's we were running though. Just replaced them with 35" Geolander MT's
