A swift drive home should drive the engine compartment and underbody. Don’t park the wet Land Rover in your garage because moisture will condense over the underside, causing rust. The brakes stay good, take the wheels and drums off and wash out any mud, especially around pads. Check again that off with an air line, or go for a drive when the brakes have dried sufficiently to be safe. Recheck the tightness of suspension and steering bolts and nuts.
Having got your Land Rover in the right shape to go off roading regularly and reliably, there’s a temptation to tackle more adventurers terrain and distance that might involve modifying and adding weighty protection and recovery gear.
Think carefully before pressing ahead like this and discuss your needs with a reputable specialist supplier. Modification are always a compromise that can adversely affect reliability and on road performance. It’s always worth remembering that a Land Rover is designed to perform well off road, and it already does that brilliantly in dog standard form.
