We decided to turn around as it was getting pretty tight and it just kept raining. Adam had a bolt come out of his starter, so he borrowed a bolt from my newly built rear tire carier. On the way out, Adam slipped into the wrong rut and almost flopped his truck, he tried backing out with us holding him up, but because he didn't have lockers I gave him a tug back. This is where he started to overheat, so we parked the trucks in the mud hole while we waited for him to cool down (never would have done this back in the day of spring under, mud terrains, unlocked, no turbo). We ran into a guy, chatted, and went on our way. drove trough a few water puddles at the end of the trail to clean the trucks a little and were on our way. a bit into the road, and Adams newly rebuilt rad blew up, so I towed him all the way home. Good trip, I am pretty pumped with how my truck works now, and gotta say am really impressed with aired down 36 TSLs in the mud.
Cheers,
Deny
