I had the same issue back when it still rained here. I put gravel over clay in my drive about 200 feet. I had at least a load of gravel hauled in every year and when it rained I would have soup for about a week. I talked to dad and he asked me what kind of base do you have? I told him just gravel over clay . He said he would scrap off all the good gravel and put down mud rock. I checked into it and at that time it was 6.50ton . I had 36 tons hauled in and let it work in for about 6 months. Put the gravel back on and now I only have to put gravel on about every 3-4 years. it is great to be able to drive over it and not sink in. I don't know if you have access to mud rock or are close to a gravel pit but that really helped and I have not had gravel soup since. Jeff.
