Doubt if they were in contact, all the personnel are open, armoured windscreen open, some more stuff in the bushes, etc

Sort of like a tanker on left side rear (May be a depot station), that sprung drum on the front I gather is to aid in negotiating large banks to stop the nose digging in is that correct.

Correct, the drum in front is to prevent nose digging in.
Left rear is to aid in getting out when stuck. Fasten cable to cage, engage drive and wind cable onto cage from wherever is fastened to, pulling vehicle out backwards. Don't see it often but it works if nothing else is available.
