best diff for beach sand?

" Even some soft-roaders go well in the sand when the tyre pressures are down. I've seen Patrol's, Prado's, even Landcruiser's get stuck in sand, and if you look for a common cause, driver's go in from bitumen to sand without letting the tyre pressure down"


Ive gone further out Kurnell Sand Hills (1985 when there was hills) in a HT Holden than most 4wds would go.... Day in Day out, they would get the bleep s with you when you would offer to tow them out!

I have had the tyres down (to 10-25psi depending on conditions) in an empty hilux tray back but it still behaves badly. Other 4wd's dont seem to have as much of a problem with "swaying" or "crabbing" which made me suspect the lsd/drive train could be not the best for the conditions. Any thoughts?

ahhhh an empty tray with no weight over the ass end to hold it down will slide easier than a wagon/swb etc...

Damn right it was to rub it in... the car had no doors, or boot lid, no windows, cost us $50, and in the 4 yrs it ran, cost us under $150 in total!

Twas like a farm car, used to carry the locals(us) out to Boat Harbour Beach, the waterholes in the sandhills, or Grasshills for overnight camps and lots of drinking and getting smashed!!!


Yas should have let your tires down unless you were buried to the ringhole, ya should still have made it out!
