Would have been funner with rain/another truck but took my 2wd onto a trail with kind of deep ruts (for me atleast) and yeah, didnt want to chance it so i drove up on the side of the rut. Was deep puddle mud holes but again, no other truck

also if someone could explain a ****** block that would help to, ive heard there handy, but i still cant figure out how they work without like a diagram.

Looks like fun! Even that little offroading is more than my truck can do right now. (For a few weeks at least.)

I miss my truck!!
I can't wait till I'm done with the SAS, it's going to be sick!

****** blocks effectively double the pulling power of a winch, each block used will decrease the amount of power needed by half.

To use one you'll need a tree or other stationary object, a tree protector strap, shackle to connect the block to the strap and the correct size block for the size of your winch wire.

Loop the tree strap around a tree, slide the winch cable into the block, connect the block to the strap with the shackle.

I didn't see the ****** Block question. LOL

A ****** block is a pulley that is to be used with a winch. Like said above it can double the torque but reduce the speed.

Or you can use it to do an angle pull. Here a few pics with the full links on full descriptions.

Lots of ****** Block styles. Here is one.


Double pulling power/Torque.


Angle pull.

went out and did it again, but a little harder, cutting across the ruts and down a different "exit" but at 0:45 sec, it hurt, the bumper brackets nailed the ground. cant really tell by the truck, but if you watch through the back window i jerk forward....starting to think this might be too much for the poor girl....oh well already have to replace the brake booster anyways :/
