Whose got their Series II/IIa into a bizarre position? (pics please)

[kombi1976]

I've got mates who love to show pics of their Patrols and Cruisers with 2 wheels off the ground or stuck halfway up a cliff face.
Has anyone got some cool pics of their II or IIa in a radical position?
I'd really like to see some unmodified Landys in those sort of situations.

I have a photo of my series 3 on 3 wheels, well technically 2 as only 2 were attached to the vehicle!

That doesn't look very OH&S conscious!

Not exactly what I had in mind but very cool.
BTW, where could I get myself one of those superb looking bull bars?
I live in the NSW Southern Tablelands about an hour from the ACT and we have a decent amount of roos who like nothing better than to play the expensive and frequently terminal sport of nocturnal car wrestling.

They were standard fittament to almost all australian army land rovers and bolt to the standard bumper bar wtih 2 stays to brackets welded on the chassis (for the series 2 type, the 2a type didn't have them).

It wasn't an optional position I found myself in, a wheel bearing failed at very low speed and the wheel rolled under the fuel tank.

I had to tie a rope with multiple truckie hitches to the hoop and back to stump to stop it falling over. Was fun driving out of it, there was a point of perfect balance on 2 diagonal opp wheels. Drowned the engine in a puddle later in the arvo Have since changed stuffed engine.

So is your Landy fairly standard apart from those wheels or are you running a V8 or different tranny?

I'm running the 2A box and transfer, standard LR rear diff(but will have high range Sals in soon) and a holden 179 bored to 186 (reco and only 2 weeks old)
mostly standard all round, looking for set of LR rims to get rid of the sunraysiers

That was very gracefully done. I like the hand brake

Pretty impressive Phoenix!!! - but wrt bullbars, mine is a IIA and had the stays.

kombi - I have posted quite a few pics of my IIA offroad on AULRO, if that's what you are looking for. If doesn't get stuck though so don't have any of those pics...

e.g. - drove right through this...


I wasn't stuck here, but Dave_S was stuck behind me...
