Over the lump, some of it is on the bumper, if you would like more then let me know as do not want to bore you all, Rick

Not been off road for ages, the Mav isn’t going off road but tempted with the old project truck but that’s got a swimming pool in the drivers footwell at the moment.

Do reckon narrower tyres would have helped, not the dumper tyres though

Yes I did rate skinnies they bit through the mud, sadly they do not allow dumper tyres at the wood, another problem is my troll comes in at 2.6 tonnes plus my off road kit, Rick

I'll never forget that time you did Strata Florida Bomb Hole in an almost standard LWB Terrano with all that gear in the back :lol :clap
