Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

Marinus, firstly relax and enjoy the trip, it will be great! The itinerary looks pretty good to me, except for the day you leave Maun for third bridge. I can strongly recommend taking a flight over the delta from Maun, and personally would rather do that than the boat trip, particularly since you wi...

Roy, as said above: The teeth on the dog engagement are quite large. It probably has about 8 teeth, thus engagement could take a significant amount of differential movement between the rear wheels. If there is a problem, the chances are 85% that it is a vacuum problem. This is relatively easy to sor...
