Would that not seem to be a bit of a design flaw Confused

In those situations would it be better to leave the DSC on or switch it off Question

Strange sort of bad luck, Landys have a bad habbit of brakeing axels all do it more than other makes. The only one that seemed amune was the old series I, it did not have enough power to bust a axel, In Oz all army series II , IIa , and III were specified with Salsbery rear diffs that had stronger axels. I have broken two axels in my IIa, [ rover diff] So nothing has changed , the axels are still a weak point and we must be aware of it and take some care. It usually happens when we do something a bit silley Whistle
