    Yeah, a Rover diff wouldn't have dug so deep and allowed it to keep pushing through. Just because the axle tube is on the ground, it doesn't mean anything.

    Yeah my front diff seems to have a little more clearance here than the salisbury in the rear.

    Double diff locked, muddies, rock crawling gears - don't mean much when BOTH diffs are grounded!






    And the most embarrasing thing about it all was that I didn't have to drive into this boghole, and it was the very last obstacle of the day. I could've quite easily drove around it and gone home - but I couldn't help myself.

    BUT - if I had 35's it wouldn't have happened!



    Cheers
