Wont turn in bog?

[NLhunter]

Hi all.
I have an Avenger 750 SDI 8x8 on Wheels. I spend most of my time on woods road and beach sand. The thing turns ok on solid ground and sand, but when in the bog and I try to turn it just sits there and grunts, like no power. Same in low range. The only way to turn is lay on the throttle and drive like a mad man. Not good for passengers and the gear stowed on. Any idea what is wrong?

"like no power"

Is the engine bogging down?

Are the tires still turning?

If you are stopped with all the wheels pretty much buried in heavy stuff (like mud or a bog) it is not too easy to try to initiate a turn from stop. Try to get the machine moving forward a bit before turning and see if that helps. Please let us know if it does or not.

Yes, while moving forward. The machine stops and don't turn wheels like no power. As soon as I stop trying to turn is goes straight and when I try and turn again it stops again. The only way to turn is lay on the throttle while going staright and then turn. You know how that works! people and gear flying
