Reply With QuoteHaving elected to go with Bog-Outs which wrap around the wheels instead of a winch, I guess a big dose of caution is needed. Thanks for posting your woes Chaybra.

I would 100% recommend not doing it at all unless using it for both wheels. even then, a lot of load will be put onto the center diff as they cannot be locked

SubscriberOf all the L322's I've seen, yours is by far the most used off road so I guess you'll be the one doing all the destructive tests for these vehicles going forward.

SubscriberIt was a good effort. Great to see you testing the L322. You should try to put up some YouTube vids to show their capability.

SupporterThe strap on both wheels is called a Bog Out. I have one and a friend of mine used it to get his Ranger and Kimberley Karavan out of a bog in the south west two weeks ago. The trick with the Bog Outs is to go very slowly and not let the wheels spin uncontrollably, especially until the tension is taken up evenly on both wheels.

Just googled Bog Out. What a great bit of gear! Given that the vast majority of winch recoveries are just a metre or two to get to firm ground, they would be near perfect.
Sorry to hear of your RR woes. Hope you get back on the road soon enough.

i pulled the front diff down last night...all pretty straight forward stuff. No damage in there what so ever. I took some measurements and ill research into Ediffs and air lockers that may measure up from another vehicle.
My biggest worry is that In my attempt to self recover, ive lunched the torsen diff in the transfer case. I cant pull this down until ive got the engine back in its place.
ideal world would be changing the diff out for a mechanical coupling to select and deselect front and rear drive. but hopefully its just the chain that has stretched.
