PraetoR Posted April 3, 2022 Author Share Posted April 3, 2022 Had a great time rock crawling with my brother-in-law, at the Falls of Dochart, Killin. Unfortunately, something has gone wrong. After some really tough obstacles (also some throttle application when the truck and wheels were basically jammed), I was losing and regaining drive, until it eventually stopped and now sounds rattley as hell. Something has let go. Some investigating is needed! 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's some very pretty scenery you have up there and you're very lucky for it to be a local spot for you..👍🏼 Fingers crossed for you that the damage isn't terminal..!!

Thanks, chaps. I'll get into finding out what happened, as soon as I can. I'm not much looking forward to taking the entire truck apart and extracting the gearbox, though! It's a shame that whatsapp completely butchered the quality of those two photos, as the location truly is stunning. The country all around that area is utterly beautiful. It's about an hour's drive from us, which isn't too bad! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crickey what’s in the shocks ?…baby oil 🤣 Definitely needs thicker oil I’m off work for few days now so hoping to get out with mine 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomr Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) Managed to give the Buffalo its first run, well second technically the esc smoked on its very first run after a min or so. Nothing fancy just to the local woods it’s not the best place for crawlers but only 5 mins away in the car. The truck was fantastic even better than I’d hoped, can’t wait now to give it a good session in the forest 👍🏻 Edited April 6, 2022 by tomr 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
