Bogged or Stuck Photos

[Woof]

OK all, put your photos of you stuck here.
This photo was taken on the way home from having a play underneath the Mandurah bridge, youngest son said "dad drive through there" and of course I did, nearly 2 hours to get out.
That's when I decided to get a Mighty GQ (well not really)

I need to get a digital camera one of these days. Are we allowed to post pictures of other peoples 4wd's bogged?

Here's an extreme one on the crossings at Fraser.

Guys. The Dogman has humbled himself enough to eat humble pie. Well done Wayne!

[Woof]

Well Ross, if you don't get stuck sometimes you are not trying hard enough mate, but I have to say that it the first time that I have ever been recovered (and it had to be put on TV didn't it)
I did recover the Zook a few times that weekend though, I would rather be recovered by Simon (Zook) than Grizz in the Landcrab.

[Finly Owner]

well doggie i did see some of episode 11 so far and how did it feel?

[my91gq]

well do to my utter stupidity while doing a lil reccy run for the powerlines trip in a few weeks the front lokka kind of got a hold of me while i was showing a few land crab utes wat a real 4wd was and she ended on he side if that wasnt bad enough at the end i went into a mud hole and obviously something huge was in the and it was deep so i flooded my car up to the door handles with mud water and pushed the front quater panel that far back my door only opens half way that was all done today by 3pm pics and videos to follow soon

c'mon, you're not going to get a lot of pictures of Patrols being bogged.............might be different if they're landcrabs....lol

[YNOT]

Here's one of me stuck up at Glass House Mountains, sorry about the picture quality. If you look closely, you can see me lying on the bonnet trying to hook the snatch strap onto the recovery point. Oh the shame of it, recovered by a Landcruiser!

http://i758.photobucket.com/albums/xx224/tonyh01/TonysStrapconnectingv2-1.jpg

To balance things up, here's a pic taken at Levuka 4WD park a few years ago. This is a completely standard Prado hire car that my mate Darren was driving. It was actually his second Prado for the week end, he broke the rear diff in the first one, then convinced the hire company to send out a tilt tray to drop off a replacement and take away the dead one.

Being recovered by a landcrab????............

I know one things for sure Tony, Landcrab or not, It beats the hell out of walking & as im sure you'll agree, the shame I can live with, being stuck in the middle of nowhere in the dark walking though mud & socked to the bone? Not so much.......lol

[Finly Owner]

That'll be two hundred for the hire and one thousand for the excess cleaning thanks

[AB]

That'll be two hundred for the hire and one thousand for the excess cleaning thanks

I was just thinking that...haha. Imagine what they thought when the hire car got back to the yard.

[YNOT]

By the time Darren got the Prado back to the hire company, he'd given it a full detail inside and out (he'd worked as a car detailer for 2 years), and refitted the bits of bumper bar that he tore off in that mud hole using a soldering iron and zip ties. He actually got his deposit back!

Here's 2 of me stuck at Levuka, about to be recovered by a Maverick, no shame in that we all know they were made by Nissan!

This next one was not me, I was standing on the bank bottom right of photo when it rolled right in front of me. Not realled bogged or stuck, but not going anywhere under its own steam either. We recovered the car, but insurance later wrote it off.

That ain't a landcrab laying on its side Tim, It looks like a GQ.

No I was talking terrain/landscape/slope/track. I was wondering what happened to end up like that.

Ok my bad..... I'll go learn how to read now......lolololololol

[Finly Owner]

I've noticed landcrab used a lot........confusing...........to me it's a austin kimberley or tasman.............???????????????

[YNOT]

That photo was taken at Keniworth SF.
Just out of shot to the left, the track forks. Old mate tried to take the right hand track but turned to late (lockrite in the front diff may have affected steering also?), so he ended up pointing between the tracks. Instead of doing a stall start to reverse he pushed the clutch in and let it roll back a bit so he could have another go. Unfortunately he let it roll a bit too far and the LHR wheel rolled up onto the back we were standing on, and the car gently fell on its side.

P.S. maybe we should call the blandcruises instead of landcrabs?

Tony

[YNOT]

Correct. A Landcruiser has the rear diff centre offset to the drivers side.

My missus has just seen photos and told me I'm not to do that to Finly especially the on one side trick. But you can't have fun without getting muddy and possibly bogged.

the bank was giving way and the further forward I went the worse it got. It was gonna go regardless but the strap was a last ditch attempt at keeping the rear on high ground. Unfortunately didn't work and yes the drop was more severe than the photos actually show

Awesome photos mate ...

[Woof]

Hey Arinol, great photos there mate, but please invest in some snatch straps and some rated recovery points for your Patrol.
Recovering with ropes attached to the tow ball is just asking for trouble, if they give, and they do, then someone could get injured or worse.
If you require any further info on this just let me know or do a search on You Tube.
Just found these threads, was going to PM them to you but thought that it may be better to post them here as a reminder to eveyone.

[Bigrig]

Top shots mate - to quote probably the most insightful, from the heart, and flawless movie ever made "if we didn't fall down, we wouldn't know how to pick ourselves up again" ... same goes for getting bogged/stuck and learning how to recover!!

And yes, you are correct ... quote is from Batman Begins ... a powerful epic I'm sure you'll agree!! lololol

[arinol]

isnt the guy in the river/poddle a tv presenter that short humiliated all patrol owners because he got to say thats why we landcruiser drivers are here for...

why not mate, half the fun of 4wd'ing is getting stuck and learning how to get out safely, yea you might get a bit muddy and dirty and sweaty but at the end of the day you say wow that was so much better than sitting at home in front of the idiot box
when ya mates ask ya what you did the weekend before, you can say oh i went out wheeling and spent so many hours trying to get out of the bog, it was awesome, or you can say, bugger all, justspent it at home doing boring crud hahahahaha

We watched in amazement as these people drove into the Wenlock river back in 2000, No recovery gear. No front recovery hook and no bloody idea! 45mins later they were eventually pulled out! Check out the ultimate Campers stand at the next show and this pic is one of their backgrounds on a display board. We have it all on video.

We were lucky enough to receive a complete recovery kit for 4x4 "Parting Pic" for the shot!

Looks like It's getting deeper too, very silly!

Would love to see that on Video if you ever get around to it.

Hi Doggy,
No, did not get pulled out by a landcrab. My mate in front of me had a Gu Patrol ute to hook onto. I never, ever, ever thought that I would witness water rushing out of my truck upon opening doors but there you go, I did it and I saw it, (the water running out.)
Mum said to me after that episode, "now has that got rid of all the extreme tendencies to have a go at everything? and shall we just get on with the driving around and looking at things in a pedestrian manner that results in no damage or detriment to our quality of 4wding lifestyle!!!
I confidently replied I will never never know if I never have a go.

It looked like a dodgy one in the first place so 10 points for having a go.
