Original FIAT CAMPAGNOLA, prepared UAZ 469B, prepared JK RUBICON, prepared VITARA: in the sludge!

We were invited by the very nice group of UAZs in their path characterized by slippery ground and beautiful mud. It was very interesting to get to know this beautiful off-road vehicle of Russian military origin and see it in real action for the first time. It can be seen that it has a military design behind it: thin bridges that leave a lot of light from the ground, their shape made to slide in the mud, leaf springs above the bridge with shackles behind the car so as not to create an obstacle, simple and spartan. Only flaw: it's so hot inside because the large side windows are fixed. I was also able to admire the UAZ proto with the original engine that the UAZs mounted on the Racing model, the 112 HP petrol twin-cam FIAT. The owner used the original military UAZ portal bridges to which he fitted Russian blocks made for the UAZ that are absolutely remarkable: in fact they allow them to be normally 50% self-locking but to be locked 100% manually when needed. My cousin's debut with his petrol Campagnola that arrived two days before with a car transporter and never tested. He has small 7.00x16 tyres, self-locking which doesn't work and torsion bars set low for height but nevertheless he survived the day and followed the pack well although he had some electrical problems from a loose distributor lead.

P.S.: Our videos are faithful accounts of our adventures which are not competitions to see who has the best off-road vehicle as everyone has different performances and it would make little sense, but simple off-road days with friends. The fight is with your own means and with yourself, trying to improve and get closer to your limit. If you climb well if not patience. With the Campagnola we try to do off-roading the old-fashioned way with a completely original car, aiming to improve ourselves as drivers rather than the vehicle.
We repay the modest disturbance that we cause to nature in our passage by collecting the rubbish abandoned in the woods that we find.
Our vehicles are in perfect working order, have no oil or other liquid leaks and therefore have no environmental impact. The streams that we have crossed are also crossed every day by herds of cows that cause infinitely greater damage than the rapid passage once a year of our off-road vehicles.
Whenever possible, we always avoid passing over the meadows, always staying within the roads and mule tracks marked out or opened by the municipal woodcutters with their bulldozers and tractors.
