    Mud bashing a 120 series

    Hi all,
    Just wanted to share some photos of giving the farther inlaws 120 series a bit of a run through Riverstone after a couple of days rain. The BFgoodrich's held up great and their was a few close calls in some of the deeper holes with out a snorkle. Over all we had a couple of fun hours.

    Number plates and only two bolts never seem to survive the water crossings Hope you brought it back to the FIL nice and dirty!

      Looked like fun That wasn't a bow wave it was a dead set tidal wave

        I guessing these pics were taken on the crown land on Loftus street in rivo. Its not a very big area, but there is plenty of fun to be had.

        I wouldn't mind organising a PP trip out there but there wouldn't really be enough to keep everyone entertained for a whole day....

          Good trips are the one's where it rains, washing the mud off before you get home resulting a quick hose off underneath

            Yes it is a fun little area but only when it is wet. We went back a few days later after the brother inlaw also picked up his 90 series prado and gave it a run.

              After destroying a starter motor, radiator and clutch mud bashing, I stay out of it as much as I can now.

                Yeah, it's one of those very fun things you do in the beginning, until the costs start rolling in

                          I used to love going in the mud, till I had to replace two idle pulley belt tensioners!
