Been there!
I dipped into the "getting stuck" pot too many times with the wifey riding in my old Samurai. Now she is completely freaked out anytime I get near mud or water.
Too bad Ontario wheeling is basically mud and water, she's always pissed when she sees the muddy mess on the LX when I get home.

It wasn't as bad as it looks. He actually got the rig stopped and was trying to reach into the back seat to get the tow strap and it started to go over. I just was trying to counter-balance. After we got the strap, two friends and I hooked it to the front of the truck, around a tree, then we held the truck from going over so he could back down. It really wasn't as dramatic as the pic shows...

What did you do after you swamped that thing? That's pretty bad.
The rest looks like a blast!

Rock Chucker that's it! I can't ever remember that. Thanks. 
I'd like to hit it now with more suspension and a new rear end (bumper that is).

Josh, i can't believe that your window works. I figured it might go down a few inches and then stop. So in the othe post you said it goes up and down fine, amazing.

Yeah it is a miracle. Everything works fine. The door and window is still going strong. No problems. That shows you when you give a cruiser a bouler it just takes it like a man.
That is crazy by the way with that sunken 80. What were you thinking? I am not trying to be a smart ass but that is pond from my angle. What ended up happening with it?

Correct ... it was only 8-10" , and the straight 6 was too phat. I nosed down .. 'into the ice'. Couldn't get pulled back because all the pcs got hung up on the axle. Ended up reaching under, and pushing the blocks down and out.
Even back then I knew I was destined to be a poser .. *toothy grin*

That's just great tirediron!!! You walked that gulley and the j@@p really struggled.
Why the heck did he keep backing up so darn far each time?

Looks like a nice trail. I really didn't realize there was a rock there until the jeep tried it. Nothing like showing mopar who's boss. So I guess those volvo axles are working out just fine for ya!

Whos white 80 is that? Jeff Stock? That 80 is from around my Durango, CO area, no? Chevota?
I think Jeff sold it if I am not mistaken. Saw someone unfamiliar driving it around lately.
TJK's maybe?

I thought Jeff Jones owned it before Kristy bought it.
It's been around for a while. It's a Feb 2001 Calander girl. TBI 350.
K lives in VA, but was working in Ohio. She was drving back to OH from CO after buying it.
It was parked next the Pig in the morning when I came out of the hotel. I couldn't figure out how I got both trucks down to Attica.
