[rancidrich]

hows this for a stuck fronty and carnage pictures



This is whats left of my sump guard after i was dragged out

[Drift]

bloody ell, did they tow you out hooked to the bash plate

Some impact, they are heavy bits of kit

[gregster]

To the Rancid one for that Bash plate...11 out of 10 mate....thats what the Carnage thread was created for...
Sheer quality!

[rancidrich]

:shock: bloody ell, did they tow you out hooked to the bash plate

Some impact, they are heavy bits of kit

No i was dragged out backwards as i was in to deep.
The sump guard dug in and that was the aftermath
the embarassing part was... it was a green oval that dragged me out

[gregster]

N'ah thats ok mate, green oval was tied to the back of your motor, so passers by would have thought you were towing him

[Drift]

Yer but did the LR get through it...

[rancidrich]

Yer but did the LR get through it...

No, he said he was stuck in it last week and was passing to see if any one else had the same misfortune

Might be worth doing a post in the Southern section Rich warning other Foggers to avoid this lane to save em getting stuck and give the lane a chance to recover...

[Drift]

Nice one Rich

[harrisp]

[Drift]

Is that still there

[harrisp]

Mine?

My mate in his discovery winched me out he then went to show me how to do it and got so stuck it took half an hour with him winching himself out and a 90 winching him out at the same time.

[Drift]

Yer, well again another result

[gregster]

Wotcha Foggers....

WELL I HAVE FINALLY BUST IT!!!

Front diff is dead

This little car has done amazingly over the last 11 months, has rescued more stuck fronties than the AA I reckon, sometimes getting bent itself into the bargain to save your shiny(ish) paintwork...and its had its more than fair share of brain in the glovebox moments for everyones amusement...


Genuinely this car has done more miles off road doing crazy stuff, than it has on tarmac since I have owned it...

I hope it has bought as many smiles to everyone elses faces as it has mine...

But the final straw for its drivetrain was a non stop 7 hour offroadin session round the woods, taking the landowners wedding guests on 4x4 "experiences" round our offroad playground...
Never have so many been so scared by so few eh Pete (my follow my leader partner round the woods doing this!)...

Before it met the woods....and had a brain placed in its glove box on many occasions, and carried out many a daring sacrificial rescue...




And these taken today....



Front wing has interesting character...mainly caused by numerous meetings with the bullbar and trees!


VX tree sliders have done well in fairness, but once bent out of all recognition the sills are gonna get it!


Door panel suprisingly didnt take out the glass...but is now on its 3rd or 4th mirror


Brain in glovebox sideways moments in the wet in close proximity of trees make the car narrower!


Steve 2much made me do this one...when it was really wet we had a go at the hill from the stump garden(steve wanted to, I wanted to tidy up in the clearing)..called for MAX throttle and dumper tyres, got sideways and collected a rather solid tree stump with the rear quarter...Yet another "one last go before we go home" moment...


Done at the weekender...wing mirror fell off drivers door when we got the woods (sally's fault) interior mirror was in the glovebox since I hit my head on it!...lack of rear visablity somewhat...and reversed into exactly the same tree that Krusher did! Replaced the taillight since then...


Matching rear quarters....cool eh!...D'oh!!!


Another well worked tree slider.......and sill.......and door


Nice golf ball effect wing....


See you can dent plastic....trimmed bumpers still take a beasting!



Nice bullbar imprint...bonnet wouldnt open until some of the se mob reworked it with sticks and anything else they could lay their hands on...





Other than a blown rad this diff failure is the first real issue with the li'll white leafer....
but it has been through more mirrors than triggers broomstick has sticks,
IT has been punished at nearly every workday and picnic, sometimes with its special tyres on it...and claimed king of the hill in the winter when it was a tadge goey up the woods...
And it has been and done everything, even when the weather did its best to make everything impossible...and its aint modded really, just manual hubs and a set of muddies....thats pretty much it!

Some of its finest moments...




















Please dont think that your car will end up like this in the woods....this car has done litterally hundreds of miles up there, driven through trees to make new tracks, got into impossible positions to pull people out, and has been driven by a loon who suffers from red mist syndrome every time...

Lets hear it for the li'll white leafer....a hero 4x4 if there ever was one!!

[horses45]

hear rest now little white leafer ,now i really cant wait for a trip down to the woods to se how the tonka does

[gregster]

Ones things for certain mate....if you get really really stuck, the lill white leafer will be there to rescue you with no regards to its own safety

[Rich]

your a cruel man greg poor fronty
