Mine is usually the solo Landy amongst the blokes I go jungle with - they mostly run toyotas, a couple of jeeps, some pajeros. All of them jacked up and running 35" XTs, lockers and such. (My TDCi is stock standard in the tyres/wheels and suspension departments).

And.....mostly they are pretty much Landy-phobic. To the extend they'd rather stay stuck than be pulled out by me&mine. And.... I am ok with that!

I said, "thank-you, mate", and he boldly stated "You should let me have a go of it".

I said, "Maybe when you're seventeen" to which his mum replied, "You have no idea. He is already saving his money for one."

So I decided to make up something stronger. The $300 guard would have required a few mods to get it to fit with my alloy bull bar (that was bend too on the same day) hence my decision to make one - as I said, I should have bought it and made a few changes and I would have been ahead by about 1/2 day in labour - oh well, live and learn.

I had forgotten that you'd destroyed the guard on that trip. So much for LR's standard "protection".

This actually happened to me, except I was following and they kept saying not to follow them because I would get stuck, but I didn't!

Haha.. (It actually did happen to me BTW) My mates bluffed me saying the trail wasn't difficult, a bunch of stock tritons all went through just a week or two before our trip they said. Family friendly they said. Total set up!!

At that time my 2013 DCPU was not quite through its first year of warranty, still as stock as stock standard is - and that trip was only about the 3rd ever excursion off road for my barge.

That trip saw all 4 of my folding side steps demolished on large rock obstacles and a few weeks later I did a job on the stock towbar arrangement so it'd not be so good at getting hung up on rocks.

The obstacle referred to in the above posts was just a matter of picking line through huge washouts (car swallowing) to avoid cross axle situations. The other blokes must have just gone head on valve bouncing and hoping to get through. (Could hear the engine roar but couldn't see round the track.)
