- In this episode we take a trip down south to the infamous Salisbury Plains. Josh has a pretty evenfull time, first sinking his truck in a bog hole... then sucking water and mud into his airbox turbo and intercooler. Mr AA man thankfully gave josh a lift home.

Refreshing to see a daughter spending time with her father out in the field.
What a laff, enjoyed watchin that!
Thanks for the support 💪🏻
“Me bifftas are in the door” the words of a heart broken man 😂😂
Would have been trouble if his biffta’s had floated away 😂😂
That’s floating away too 😂😂
Saw this comment and now I have to watch the whole thing
What is a biffta?
Glad you enjoyed our local lanes, respect to the Suzuki driver who was virtually stock and seemed to adhere to the old LRO slogan of ‘tread lightly’.
Fair doo’s to the Suzuki it really does get everywhere it needs to 😁
That mud through the air filter/turbo/inter-cooler is most probably going to mean an engine rebuild!
Luckily we have spare engines 🙈
Absolute hooligans love it 😃
Wow that Suzuki did very well
Every time that Suzuki has been out with us it has astonished me 😁
@@4WDUK yeah it’s amazing to be fair but I’m still a landrover fan through and through 😃
Best video out there I'm hooked I need a 4x4 again
Thanks 😁 yes you do, get one and get out there adventuring 👌🏻😁
Best 4x4 channel I’ve seen!! Top quality content and cracks me up. Been watching the videos whilst waiting for my D2 to be ready. Can’t wait to get out
Thanks bud😁 glad you enjoy the content 🤙🏻

Just watched this , my local area , glad you enjoyed the plains .😃👍
Thanks bud 💪🏻🔥
9.19 I don't think you should be telling people to move out of the way, like you did just because u want to pass through, next time ask if it would be OK 2 go pass!
Great video. Got yourself a new subscriber 👍
Thanks for the support bud, glad you're enjoying the content 🤙🏻
Awesome video! Need to get rid of the pipe that connects the snorkel to the airbox, they let water it replace for a silicone item! That’s what your getting water in the airbox
Thanks 🙏🏻 😁
We’re just waiting for the silicone pipe to turn up 😁
Love that defender
The little mountain goat? Hopefully it’ll be making an appearance again very soon 😉
You guys are really crazy)). Very cool, greetings from Russia 👍✌
Thanks dude, appreciate the support 😁
I love the Offroad scene in Russia, you lot are bonkers 😜😁
Wait till you see Aussies off-road.
Great video,as a d2 owner I had to subscribe 👍
We do love a good D2 here 😁
Next time you down Salisbury plains I would love to meet you guys and take the tracks with yous
Mint video
Thank you 🤙🏻
Time for a biffda then or what absolutely love it mate

Hoping to be down again sooner rather than later 😁
Looks like great fun would love to come out with you guys one day.
We’re hopefully doing a big camp out in north wales in the few months 🤙🏻
@@4WDUK ah wow, is it open to others to join in as well? We’re Off to strata Florida tomorrow
Yeah, limited spaces so keep an eye out on social media 🤙🏻
@@4WDUK will do
grew up goin on the plain with my dad, havnt been in years as havnt got anything that will get across there anymore. might haver to invest in somethign after seeing this lol
Get it done 😁😁😁
Looked like you guys had great fun and got megga muddy in the process bonus I'd say. Bit of a bummer about the breakdowns though 🙄
Love watching your vid's and love your motors I have an ex police 04 plate d2 I'm just on building up its standard at minute apart from having bf goodridge tyres on it 🤦♂️ one day it might be as good as yours 🤞
Was a brilliant trip 😁
We all started with standard trucks and built them up over the years 😁👌🏻
And it was this point when a 200tdi makes sense no ecu to worry about
Can’t beat the ol’ 200/300tdi 👌🏻😁
I got rid of my td5 for a 200 just because I nearly killed my td5 on the plain and I live there
"Get me bifdas" - pissed myself man
The scream of a man in pain that was 😂😂😂
Salisbury Plain mud proper f*"*ks everything. Hope you all treated your rides to a full blood transfusion afterwards.😀
Ohhhhhh Yesssss, everything got a proper good going over afterwards 🙈 Though we're still finding bits of Salisbury mud 😂
Noticed the grills on the rear windows on the D2 did you make these your self's or did you buy them buddy if so do you have a link
They’re from AW4x4 bud, Armoured Engineering also do them in a slightly different style so check them both out 😁
Where is the area around the 20min mark
All your videos are brilliant ! What lift and tyres do you have on the d2’s ? I have a 1999 d2 that is a daily driver but looking to use it off-road on the weekends too ! And I’m looking for inspiration in the lift/tyres area.
The gray d2 (Dora) is on 37” tyres in this video, 3” suspension lift and 2” body lift.
The green d2 has 35” tyres and a 4” suspension lift.
The blue d2 has 32” tyres with a 2” suspension lift.
All depends on what you’re planning to do with the vehicle on how far you go. Our little blue d2 will get 95% of places if you push it 👌🏻
@@4WDUK thank you for the information !!!! Somewhere between Dora and the party bus I think 🤔 then I can still drive to work every day but also triumph in the lanes on weekends 👍
@@Oneeyeben4wduk For the vast majority of lanes or general 4x4ing a 2" lift and 32" wheels are more than sufficient. While opinions may vary, I personally would not want to use a D2 with 35" knobbly tyres and a 4" suspension lift as a daily driver. You might as well commute in Tractor it will be pretty much the same thing.
If you go larger wheels and higher lift, you are going to need to spend a lot more money. There's an adage for every inch you go over 2" that's an extra grand per inch. As you'll need to correct the castor and radius arms. and the drop links. You will need longer brake hoses and possibly extending the wiring for the ABS sensors to accommodate the flex of the axles.
As for tyres, you can go up to 5% bigger than standard without too much issue. 29" is standard on a D2. if you put 32" tyres you are going to notice its a lot slower. If you go even bigger you are going to need minimum of a stage 1 remap to make it drive worth a damn and if yours is an automatic then you can't put more than 380NM safely though that autobox and the standard Td5 Torque converters are not the best either, if its manual go for a stage 2 that means making changes to that exhaust and also, you may need to change the gear ratio of the transfer box too. Normal ratio on the D2 is 1:1.2 so you're going to need to get the transfer box on 1:1.4 like a Defender or even 1:1.6.
Its a big job and you have to budget for it as its not cheap to get everything you need for it, and know what needs doing, simply raising the suspension and putting fat tyres on is just the tip of the iceberg really.
@@mikeb53 thank you I have decided to go big you only live once ! 4inch lift and 35” tyres
I'm pretty certain iv got pics of some of the group I did this with and water inside a 90 proper job
Stuff Floating round the cab? 😂 It's not too bad with a 90, you can wash them out :P
Do you have your route logged live in the area and never seen some of the tracks you’ve covered
Sorry we don’t. We don’t really release our routes either with legality changing so often, we’ve been stung before. Hope you understand bud.
How do you protect your ecu, going through water etc?
On the TD5 D2’s we use an ecu extension loom to move the ecu inside the cab 👌🏻😁
mmmmmmm ? seats belts as the green lanes are still highways? speed limits ? tread lightly ? has anyone had any off road driver training?
i am all for having fun in the mud and water but this is not doing the U.K. off readers any favours.
This is the uk version of 4WD 24-7 LOL
I think we’ll take that one as a compliment 😁 if only we had the budget and the tracks that they do hey 😜
When you guy are off roading at Salisbury what channel do you use, we use channel 3 ( Somerset Mudrunners)
I think we used channel 10, we don’t come down very often but we’re trying to make it a yearly trip 👌🏻😁
@@4WDUK well if you fancy company next time your down we have a team of around 7 discoverys at somerset Mudrunners and we would love to come and play in the mud lol. Take care buddy and loving your videos....
All the best. Vinnie.....
Don’t need seatbelts then la?
Hi there Nice video, can you tell me where the first ten minutes of video were filmed ?as I am local and do not recognise it.
Hi bud, we don’t release the exact locations we film and due to legalities changing. Sorry 😞
What legalities are you referring to?
@@jedwhassell yeah what legalities I am interested also
@@kevwilliam they’re public right of ways… besides, not every man, woman and dog has cars that can drive these lanes.
I don't recognise it either, and I spent 6 years as a warden 🤔
that looked like fun. Those snorkel air intakes just decorative then?
Just an issue with the way they were sealed, all rectified now 💪🏻
Did that lads smokes survive 😂😂
Half the packet did… but sadly we had to lay to rest the other half of his “bifta’s” 😂😂😂
@@4WDUK 😂😂
I would get rid of the air box and just complete pipe all the way to the top.
Run filter less or jerryrig a filter into the system somewhere?
All official B. O. A. T????
At the time of filming yes, this might have changed though.
Any clue why the snorkel failed?
From what we found, the snorkel hadn't failed. The Water, Mud and bits of smashed plastic from the snorkel grill came from the top 😬🙈
I’ve had similar on my d2. It’s the woven fabric coupler between the air box and snorkel. If submerged, water gets through it. It’s not easy to get that much water through the top.
Also happens if you don’t locate the air box lid perfectly over the filter which seals it or if you have missing clips, which most seem to. Only a few quid from Land Rover.
@@m4drx
You need to silicon all joints.
@@Robert-cu9bm I have done mate and added a few layers of waterproof tape around for good measure. No water or mud in the air box since and it’s been about 4 years of laning trips to Wales, Salisbury etc.
@@m4drx
👍
What people don't realise when they have one is that they're not a "snorkel" they're a high air intake.
The standard airbox isn't designed to be submerged in water. Best to get a aftermarket aluminium one and make sure all joints are sealed correctly.
That amount of muddy water isn't coming through the top, that's leaking in through the joints.
Gray you need to turn you snorkel to face back man as that how all that shit got in your air box
Nah it would of come through the joints of the snorkel, most people don't silicone them and that's the result of not.
Nice Aluminium snorkel is best for muddin with the D2.
@@littlebull8881 Thanks forgetting back to me buddy and your right I've not siliconed my snorkel but I will be getting on that today thanks for yet another top tip, great videos bro I follow you guys on CZcams and maybe one day hope to bumps into you guys with are group (Somerset Mudrunners) at Salisbury one day. All the best and say safe buddy, by the way little Billy goat make me laugh he is well funny even when he doesn't mean to be lol.
@@somersetmudrunnerstd5owner146 Hi Vinnie mate, I am not part of the group of lads n lasses on this video, however I am disco 2 owner though and happy to help my fellow 4x4 brothers and sisters. Regardless of that you do have very kind words and I do hope the 4X4UK read this. Definitely get on to that Silicone job though as it really does make a big difference with the Mud run.
Best Wishes and Happy New year Mate.
Davie
@@littlebull8881 hi dave good to here from you buddy when on Salisbury we use cb to keep in touch with the group we use channel 3 on fm is there a channel that is dedicated on Salisbury by the 4+4 groups.
Hi Vinnie, somehow we missed replying to you :( our apologies
As Little Bull said bellow it’s more of a seal issue. In grahams case it’s just the seal between the air box lid and body, everything else is most defiantly sealed.
The design of the air intake on the d2 was piss poor in my opinion. On my truck(big blue) I have a custom snorkel and air box.
When you order 4WD 24/7 off wish
😂😂😂
It’s all love mate. Watched one of your videos for the first time last night and it’s safe to say, very enjoyable. Good work lads
Glad you enjoy them mate 😁 I was trying to type out a witty reply but they all were on the line of offending people 😂😂😂
So when u coming back then let me know come out for a play
Hopefully we'll be back down in 2022 🤙🏻
On the fence.
We live in a tiny fucking country and we a have to take care of it. Ripping bombholes ruins green lanes and they WILL be closed. Then we're all fucked.
On the other hand it's out country too and if we want to rip bombholes why shouldn't we? Just hoped you tried to at least pick up after yourselves lads.
No way should there be THAT amount of shit after the air filter 😂 That's not right chief I'm telling you now 😂
Nice to see you all having a laugh 👌👌
Sadly you cant please all the people all the time , we are NOT a bunch of yobs detroying lanes nor are we sandal wearing anoraks , would like to think we are a middle of the road (or bombhole if ya like ) kinda gang , and just wanna have some fun , no one died and tbf those bombholes are driven by tanks !!!!! Dont fink Dora would really do any more damage than a 30t tank , we appreciate your mid way view as it shows tolerance and maturity something we hold dear here at 4wd uk 🇬🇧
We defiantly cleaned up after ourselves, we quite regularly end up with 2/3 bags extra of rubbish cleaning up other dirty buggers mess 😑
@@4WDUK say no more, I'm totally on side now! Thanks for the nice reply, you could have taken offence.
Top guys for doing a bit of litter picking as well, ya love to see it. I've been Laning with lads and seen them just throw cans, tissue etc on the floor. I have to give them a lecture then pick it up myself, can't bear it
No point in taking offence bud, you put together a balanced argument and we respect that 👌🏻 we get far to many people hiding behind fake accounts throwing insults about, they don’t get anywhere 😂
@@4WDUK and the great thing is after you answered the argument there wasn't one. As we said it's a small country so it has to be all love
do you have a face book or a Instagram, I could follow . videos are class
Thanks 🙏🏻 😁 we’re @4wduk on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok 😁
All shits and giggles to someone shits and giggles that's quality
Brown custard bud, never want brown custard 😂
Good to watch , but copying the same format and even using there wording in intro of 4wd action in Australia is not on
Your not very good at this r u 😂🤣😂😂
