Weeds, just soyou known you need brakes on any trailer over 750kg - :p
Sometimes maxtrax take longer though - when late in the day a mate of mine insists on using them rather than being towed up the dune by a 'Rover' - we still had 400k to do and I was ready to push him up with the bullbar.
Maxtrax all the way, Treds are useless.
My Tuff Traxx arrived today. A lot of weight to carry especially if they don't get used.
Tombie
we dont get much sand up here but gee we get some mud
will be some good mud getting to some of our favourite barra haunts this year I iamgine
Anyways I digress.
In good old bottomless mud stuff the plastic boards all they do is get really really really dirty and are a waste of time
As I have said before buy your self 3 or 4 hanks of 30m long 12mm dyneema
A metric **** tonne of shackles
A good drag chain
A good shovel
Recovery vehicle gets chained to solid tree (where there is mud eventually you will find a tree)
Run out your string and start digging and winching
I played with the Maxtrax a mate had with his totally bogged Playdoe on the Morgan landing track a while back. When we finally got the playdoe out of the mud and dug out the tracks eachone weighed about 25kg and took half an hour to wash the mud off.
Perhaps good in sand
Waste of time in the sticky stuff
IME of course

you can fill hessian bags with mud, that might work, specially if you had enough of them you could build a bridge, hard work but better than walking. ( but you would not bother bringing them home. )
I got a set from these guys:
Grating FRP Australia - Fibreglass Reinforced Plastic Grating
Fibreglass grating, yes they are weightier but I did get the larger 38mm stuff and also ended up with them coming from off cut stock so they are longer than usual. It's great stuff apart from the weight, they don't sink as much as you'd expect and for bridging it's excellent. Also gave me 4 smaller 300x300 pieces to use as hi-lift pads (so if anyone in Sydney needs/wants one let me know).
I know they're not for everyone but I do a bit by myself so they are perfect for a variety of uses (incl using as temp ramps to wok under the car).
