Broken axle/diff ?

Steering link would not stay straight I bent it back 3 times, Didn't want to risk it on a 1 hr 15 min journey home so booked recovery.

Easy job to fix, got a uprated setup ready to drop on it.

one side looks to be toein out a bit :augie

Ffs that's a bit poor surely ?? What caused it ?

Is it a common weak point on landy ? You must have been ragging it ? Jumps and stuff ?

Initially went out slightly as it caught against a rut while winching. Then once it's slightly bent it's easier and went the whole way.

Main reason is more agressive and larger tyres

New stronger steering link ready to bolt in :lol

Just outside Carmarthen , ground is peat based and mainly wet . Deep mud even in the woods, and there's little room for big trucks :augie
Good steep winching sections and some tidy grass track sections :clap
Shame it's 300 miles from you ish

yep that sort of kills it for me, but I do have Slindon and Boxgrove, and although I have been to both many times there are still areas that I have not not visited and also the state changes very much depending on the amount of rain, today at Boxgrove was great, well sticky but I hear in the summer it is a dust bowl whereas Slindon never dries out, enjoy, Rick
