Ok, the last two times I have been out in the mud/Dirt/Sand the only time I get bogged and stuck is because my engine cage bottoms out...

You want funny, I got stuck up on a Tree Stump in MY FRONT YARD, Neibours watching....

So I need a few more inches, anyone point me in the direction of a dry or shallow sump, remote resivour or what ever will work to loose this sump situation...

I have a Manx Buggy with a Subaru EA81 engine, it is the lowest part of my car and it could be soooo much better...

So anyone got any ideas...?

Thanks, Marineboy..

PS... who lives on the northern beaches...???

I'm pretty sure the guys at Custom Off-Road do a custom sump for Subis that are much higher, but still the same volume of oil.
