I think making it do what you want it to do will be the challenge, but very clever bit of kit, Rick

Yeh definitely designed for rock crawling rather than mud blasting!

Some very clever people made that, I guess for me there would be more achievement in doing the engineering to make it work. Sell it to nasa for the mars missions

Did not like the look of the concrete rings, my LWB would complain, the hill of tyres looked interesting, but no mud? Rick
