Hei Graham. We are based in Norway - We just travel to Iceland for our adventures. We have Toyota Hilux vehicles - No experience with Land Rovers. I suggest you contact some of the Land Rover community sites, who will no doubt have a wealth of knowledge and experience to share with you :) Good Luck :)
I understand your frustration Alan, the voice quality on the recording is terrible. I tried for hours to improve it to make it clear enough to understand, but in the end it was never any good (even without music). Instead I focused on making the subtitles cover as much of the conversation as I could make out. Obviously I have much to learn about recording video and audio...
It's such a shame that you guys don't know what to do in a situation like that..... What you do is you drop that tire pressure down so that tire looks like it's almost flat.. maybe not quite that bad but so that it is flaring out really good. There was a guy that out pulled a four-wheel drive pickup truck with his two-wheel drive pickup truck.... It was on UA-cam years ago.... He flared the tires all the way around and added weight on the tailgate on his two-wheel drive pickup truck... For every 100 lb of weight he put on the tailgate it exerted 105 lb on the rear axle... Why you might ask.... Because it acted like a lever and lifted the front... Think about it... If you put enough weight on the tailgate it would lift the front end of the truck right off the ground...
We know all about tire pressure, if you pause at about 5:33 you will see that we are already at 4psi on all four corners. The problem here was that we were not able to engage the locker between the two rear axles. When you enter a steep angle like this with a 6x6, the middle axle will loose a lot of traction. Since the locker was not working, all the power to the back went into that middle axle that was just hanging in the air. The locker have since been repaired and the trucks are back to handling these conditions like they should!

Why the music can't hardly hear what you're saying and would rather hear the engines

two huge 6x6 recused by an all women 4x4 club......yeah right.
They were quite tough :)
@@Quest42 indeed brother 👍
