Now, I am sure my following advice is going to get flamed but I don't care.

Since you don't have front tow hooks, I suggest you remove your plastic lower front valence, and hope that you can hook a tow strap (ONLY A STRAP) to your front axle. By removing the valence, hopefully, you wont tear it up with the strap, course in hind sight, you could leave it in place to hopefully reduce damage to your front bumper. Another option would be to fab up some tow hooks before you leave.

i gotcha on the tow truck. Well I left the lower plastic thing in a field along time ago. The front bumper is all ready a little messed up as is. So It aint no big deal. As long as it dont get ripped off.

generally speaking, you will be taking a STOCK ram into a place thats meant to get trucks stuck. usually thats not a good idea. what i would suggest is that you take things extremely slowly. its not like you're in a off-road race. when you come up to something that you think you might not be able to handle, just park it, get out, and scout it up.

You think a/t are going to be good your better off putting bold tires on as so as they touch mud they are going to fill with mud, they dont clean out like m/t do or should do and with out locker and a/t you better make some good friends fast when your up there
