Ahh welll it was bound to happen... the hole was almost to the racks in the middle, she pulled fine until coming out, high centered. Had to leave it there. Got winched out this morning haha. Anyhow ground clearance is king for sure. Ill be ordering a lift kit asap, even tho its not FIS, if i can get the skid plate up an inch at least it would help greatly..

If you had the front end locked, I think you would have made it.

Ya locked would have been nice.... it hard to wrestle power to a tire sometimes. Locked prolly wouldnt have helped to much, all 4 where in the air. I alomst got it out with a couple of pieces of railroad ties... but it wasnt to be... heheh.

Did the winch not work or was there no trees to pull from? Did you walk back home? Cool pics, I need to get some some ones soon.

Pretty cool looking. Problem is, half the people that see the pics will probably say you should have made it, because I guarantee the pictures don't do it justice. Looks pretty stuck to me man. Good shots.

Andy, ya, a FIS machine would have got out. But i only got like 9~in at the rear diff and maybe 11 in the front end. Would have to check. And those front tires are NOT touching the ground, it looks like it in the pics tho. It got high centered and if tires are in the air all the lockers, tires, lifts in the world wont help hehehe. Believe me, it wasnt going anywhere by myself. The hole at the rear was to deep to stand in with sneakers... and as you can see the rear tires are barley above the dirt line.

Also i think adding a skid to the rear would help, it can get hung up where the skid ends and drive shaft is exposed making it extrely hard to reverese if needed.

I think i replied to your other thread asking the same thing... you can post like 12 pics here and the little camera will show up under your name like mine. Just click My Page up there at the right. You will see a series of buttons, customize, gallery, my page, profile, search etc. Just click it and follow the prompts. If you need anything else reply to your other thread and we will help you.
