This is probably a stupid question but are 4x4's any more immune to wheel clamps compared to normal 4wd cars? Or are you still ****ed if you get clamped?

The clamp chains themselfs might not be long enough to fit around the wheel completely , apart from that the front plate is still going to block your nuts, either way, if its does fit on, just make it sit central to the wheel and drive it anyway lol

Driving away without trashing your suspension isn't possible if the clamp has been fitted correctly.

Have a look at this - Land Rover Wheel clamp - LR4x4 - The Land Rover Forum

(and my signature pic )

Ok, so bolt cutters it is. I have a small pair which I keep in the back of my gaylander already but maybe I should upgrade just in case!

There's a certain liquid (not saying what) that the pikeys round us use, pour on padlock, wait 2 mins, hit with hammer and it shatters like glass. We have lost 9 ivor williams flatbeds in 7 years because of that stuff. They might get a little shock when they come back for the next one though.... Guess that stuff might take it off and would be a lot less conspicuous than a petrol disc cutter

Or you could just buy a flatbed truck with a hiab crane
