--- Quote from: "Range Rover Blues" ---I've heard of halfshafts and the like busting when spinning a wheel that then touches down, but never a diff! Maybee it was it's time.
If you can't get a diff I know a place you can try near me (I don't mean my shed).
Is chapel gate the one with a strip of tarmac no wider than a 'G' string? If so I remember that one, my a**e was gripping the seat going up there, and it looks worse now in your pictures. Maybe we should go up there and shovel that tarmac into the troughs before someone really comes a cropper.

:lol: Yep i think it was its time, and yes Chapel Gate is the one with strips of tarmac running down. Ive done this route last year in my old Suzuki sj with no probs, but since then it really has got chewed up and is nasty in places. To be honest in hindsight i shouldnt have gone up but in the spure of the moment... :roll: Whilst trying to get the Rangie back down, macca and DPG were actually breaking up some of the tarmac and filling in some of the ruts to help stop the rangie from tipping over. Infact now i think about it. It was a stupid thing to do but you live and learn. And it certainly could do with a work party up there to do some maintanence before someone does come a cropper. You see Chapel has got me before but i didnt learn to stay away, that time i was on my mountain bike charging down with DPG in tow, and yep over the handle bars at about 20mph on the ruff steep section. Got away with just a cut above my eye and some grazes, but this route just keeps calling me back for more.. :lol:
:D Ill be intouch about the Diff in a couple of days if i cant get one locally.
Just add if anyone is thinking of doing this route in the near future Beware its Ruff. Proberbly o.k in the dry.
