Out playing with the stalwart again on Broxhead, we had some fun and had to winch her

[paulob1]

we were doing the hole at broxhead, no one could get through today but the stalwart did it with ease, so too a unimog but only the easy bit for the mog as it had a long body overhang and could not do the tight holes...]

 

take a look at some of the vidoes.

 

 

 

she eventually made the holes a bit slippery and dug a few ruts in the exits until she got a bit deep in one of the holes and had to be winched out using her self recovery winch....amazed that the winch worked as they are not the strongest and i did not use a snatch block to increase the load...

 

was a good day...

Looked like a lot of fun......Thanks for posting..............

the stalwart is great fun for playing, the clutch is a pain and the linkage gets a bit difficult to engage the gears when she is under load but with the jolly engineering ignition the engine runs a treat...

Wish I'd have popped down! But spent the weekend working on the Daf(and made some good progress) Stolly sound great and those Russian tyres seem to make a difference!

Looks like you had a grand day,

I am not sure about the tyres, they are much harder than the bar grips, which give a much softer ride, clean better too in the really gooey stuff...but mostly I think she drives in dryer conditions better with them...

 

the winch was amazing and recovered me from a very sticky situation without the snatch block which i thought very special indeed.

 

was a fun dayfor sure and weather held up great
