Default Wheelin Pics

Got some pictures of my trucks maiden voyage with the new lift and tires. Only had minor problems on my rig, all resulting from getting stuck in some deep silt (fluid changes, etc). My buddies 03 Ram had a CV shaft pull apart, busted off a shock and cracked his front diff housing at the front mounting bolts.

Without further ado:










Where I got stuck:






The Aftermath:









The tow rig:




My Buddies Rig:

Yeah, at that point of the pic where I'm just sitting there, we had busted 2 smaller straps and a chain trying to get me out with my buddies truck (in 2wd since his passenger front shaft was shot by this point).We were waiting for another group of wheelers to get to us and help with the extraction. That pic was before I got to go waist deep into the mud to get **** hooked up, lol.

LOL, that's awesome. Thank you. I needed that. We'll have at least another month until trails open up with all the snow we've had in the mountains.

No, the fullsize was able to get me out with about 10 good jerks. The strap they were carrying was a 4" (may have been a 3.5") and was able to withstand the pulls unlike the smaller straps I had brought along.

Funny thing was it bent the bronco's frame mounted reciever hitch and bent the drop hitch (flipped upside down)on my truck. I was in there pretty good.
