    Yeah that was it. Funny though, 12 months or so prior, in the bog hole just before that one, I blew my clutch in it, and some time before that BA did his clutch too. Then stupid me does his clutch again and everything else in the same spot. Thing is, that spot in the pic, I had been through many times before on 33's. On 35's there and was stuck, real good. No more of that sh!t for me, unless I have no choice.

    Yeah, I pretty much gave
    up going through bog holes
    after crossing the very muddy
    Surrey river in flood and
    the boggy swamp adjacent
    to it.

    Repair list. Alternator
    Aircon belt
    tensioner bearing
    Water pump (bearing)
    Wet smelly carpet.
    Wet electrical joiner
    under passenger seat.
    Mud and water in
    timing belt.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    You guys must have evil mud. I've smashed mine through a lot and have only ever replaced a starter motor (which slowly died, not as a direct result of mud). Oh and I've never ever done a clutch...... Auto power! Lol

    Edit: I did have smelly carpet for a bit once

    Could n't go back the way we came, so just had to press on. I didn't get stuck, although the Old Trol was wading bonnet deep in the muck for ages. But thanks for your judgement, mate
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.
