Thanks David - looks like a winch fest!

I've seen 4x4s in central America using snow chains to navigate jungle mud. Do they use them in the Amazon?

Tall and thin looks like it works too http://www.cameltrophy.com.br/transamazonica2009/arquivos/dia104.JPG

That one hits home...we use chains in the mud out here. Never a good thing when you have to chain up and it's not snowing.
