Right:ill start the story here,

At drumclog theres the river which runs down the site & through the woods (where trug scratched his paint  :lol: ) in the river is a deep hole which AFAIK hadnt been driven till that weekend when a few people had a go, one of them was pete in the landcruiser



the water was at the lowest level i had seen,

anyhow there was word at said weekend of a guy in a disco 2 which had tried to drive the same hole,

& after much searching I found the piccys,
so here we go








hmmm bet that was fun to dry out  :lol:

If the landy is set up to wade that deep then good luck to him...........but its not the car i would have chosen to use.............far to much electrics and toys to damage  :?

the holes easily drivable if it wasnt for the 5/6 feet of water in it,

im not 100% sure if it was drivable that day as approx 9 litres of water came out the engine,but i think he did get it going again,


the hole going that way is a steady drop in with a sharp 3/4 foot banking to go up,that is approx where his front is sitting,im guessing he drove in & soaked the ecu which is under the bonet & thats where it pulled up
