Dunno about later models but the 4wd in the Gen1 is described (by the manual) as an all-road, not off-road system.

Given a flat, solid beach though, i doubt you'd have a problem. Keep out of the soft stuff or you'll have fun getting out, road tyres and SFA clearance won't help you any.

Hard flat sand should see you fine... take a walk on it first. If your footprints are barely leaving a depression you will be a-ok. Hard flat sand is actually very very hard... (you know how it hurts when you stomp on it..)

Hahahaha. Look at this and then say something. They are all liberties.

Just seen the pics?? are you for real?? too good!!!, it even climbed up hills in the sand too??

Haye yo spoil the party but not the best idea as sand and the bottom of your car and engine bay is not a great combination.. just something to consider. you will need to clean the underside well if you want your car to last.

Mmmmm I wouldnt have been sending mine up the hill But yeh that beach looks perfect for some skiddies

DO A BURNOUT ULEH!

Those pictures are freaking awesome.

Hey XXB4XX I'm not going to tow you out of the sand dunes @ Kurnell, but I'll come and watch u roll it

:help:

But for some technical information from Subaru - Manual Transmission

"During straight line driving the torque split by the differential is 50/50 to front and rear wheels. Torque distribution at the road however is also dependent on load distribution and tyre grip and as a result the static ratio is 60/40.

During actual driving conditions load movement when cornering, accelerating or braking etc. causes the torque distribution to also move in the same proportions.

When wheel slip occurs a rotational speed difference between the front and rear axles is created and the viscous coupling automatically matches the torque to grip in order to restore maximum traction."

When are we going?

use to take mine up north shore all the time mate,
its just a standard gen3 wagon, only prob for me was entry and exit over the real soft deep s#*t.
about 80kph should see you thro that.

HaHa, love the big pic of my plough, apart from still finding sand, no harm done..........I built this thing to have a bit of fun, not priss around with my bonnet up all day showing off my bling,
if it breaks I'll fix it & if it don't I won't
One thing I will say is I had a Landcruiser with 12.5" wide ( 50 inches pluss, when baggad out ) tyres for 8 years before I built this car & with 38 lb in my tyres it will crap all over the Cruiser with 18 lb in it's.
I thought the cruiser would & usually did go anywhere but these really are amazing & almost un-bogable even in the soft crap.

That's not a bad idea, but I'll come down with a Defender! This way we can pull you lads out :yes2:

Kosti, bring your lib down..

Lets go on sunday, and we'll get some pics of the cars together?
