Default Parked to close to the mud hole.

Just wanted to say hi to all and let everyone know my 4x4 dakota ran with the best of them in the local mud run.

The thing that impressed everyone is how well i did with stock suspension and no lift kit.
The possi trac rear dif made the truck work real well.
So i tip my hat to all those people willing to put there pride and joy toys and daily drivers into the mud and have some fun.

The 4 hours of mud running was worth the three weeks of cleaning out the mud from every crevice in the truck.

That's sweet. My grandpa has posi on his '92 and he says that the thing just handles like a dream. He doesn't go mudding, but it seems to be a worth while conversion.

a 2wd truck with sure grip (dodge's version of limited slip - posi is the old chevy term now only sold by eaton) will get you most places a 4wd with open diffs will. A 4wd with lsd's front and rear is just about unstoppable.
