I follow the Jackson Brothers Farming on YouTube. This is their latest vid. They run 2 D11s, and a lot of other heavy machinery on their cropping properties in Oz. A week ago the D11 got bogger, now it's the turn of the excavator.

A few days earlier. Not some prominent in this vid but love the sound of that C32 engine.

You can take your ranger to water but you can't make it drink.......

Joke on me... Thought diff was locked..... Fortunately out after a tug from a mate and all is well. Even had to recover him on the way back ��

Oops... I did that though, put the little 4wd truck's PTO into gear rather than the diff lock. Some idiot put the buttons back into the dash and swapped them over - the diff lock had the two gears meshed of the PTO system and the PTO had the gear with the lock symbol inside it from the difflock. That was a trap for young players!

I've just had a quick look and other ranger raptor divers may know. It looks like the electronic dif lock is only available on the rock crawl mode in LR

I'll take the Prado next time....

Yes, the electronic diff lock only engages in 4L mode on mine - I think it's due to the fact that it's only suitable for low speed use being a braking operation and at 90Km/H it might produce some unusual effects haha. Bit hard on gear...

Just thinking on that a bit more, if you were in 4L mode and moving/had momentum the electronic diff locking should have kept you moving through that provided the initial bit of slip on the wheels didn't dig you in instantly. That's one of the 'hard surfaces' to work with, an older non-electronic 4x4 is easier in that condition set as you don't have so much a fear of drowning the thing if you hit a wall of water and send a plug up somewhere!

Thanks for that, was in 4H when I went in. Shows I need to know the vehicle modes a bit better.

It should buff out?

Yes, they do love playing that game in the steep stuff

Dunno about buff out, but I'd give it a go with a 'puff out' if you have a compressor handy!

you can't park there goofey!

helping a mate take out a few of his neighbours trees yesterday .using the rodeo as a dozer -not a good idea as ive cooked the clutch .needless to say my son (mechanic in cheif)was not impressed has confined me to foot travel tillhim and his mate can replace it next w/e.between that and a couple of non cooperative chainsaws ..well!however a chainsaw maintainence in the man cave today should go some way to reaching an agreement on exactly who does what!
overall however and despite me arsing up(do a wonderful dead coffee table imitation me) my newly repaired back came through the job OK so thats a bonus!!

Another clown took out the districts power.

My son & I driving up the river to make sure wifeys uncle got out ok on his quad...of course he did, my son was driving but he claims I was. Which I wasn't...bit tricky to see the soft bits in the middle of the night. Thankfully this machine was close by.
