93 4x4 Toyota Hilux Pickup Off Roading in mud... Leaf spring snap
Taking my toyota through some mud and breaking a rear leaf spring... listen for the snap near the end of the video.
Basically I'm trying to get through this mud and up onto the grass or boggy turf.... unsuccessful, I break a rear leaf in the process. It has since been fixed and re-enforced with an extra leaf on both sides!

1968 AM General 2 1/2 6x6 Ton Multifuel Truck Resurecting The Toyota
Hey guys, apparently people are having a hard time telling that i was being sarcastic when i said, "I don't think you should be taking this thing off road, This is NOT an off road vehicle" I'm not exactly sure how people can't tell that that is an obvious joke about a 6x6 diesel truck with military tires. I mean, jesus, its even camo! Why would something be camo, unless it was going to be driven in woods, and have to blend in with trees and all... hahah, i don't know guys... i know i said it serious-sounding sort of, but come on now. So anyway, back to the video description: The Toyota has been back in the woods since i had to clean up the field. So Drew borrowed this beast of a truck so we could get it out of the woods. These Tires on the duce really don't do well i the mud. luckily once it digs down, it gets enough traction :) so we plan on getting the toyota going again soon. with any luck :) (update: the woods had flooded bad, about a year before this video was shot, and the toyota was underwater to about 3/4 or so up the seats... so the engine filled with water, and is completely siezed. Its the 20R out of a 79 i had. I plan on finding a 22R for it if i can.)
