Re: 4X4 Action Pix

Saturday in Mass.
Nothing 'spectacular' for pics (no one was into playing photographer that day) but we got out at least.

Started out slow but hit a 2nd trail later in the day that was a total blast, say ROCKS!

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

It warmed up, most of the snow melted, then it rained for a couple days. The ground softened up and it was a good muddy mess. I even had to use the winch a couple times.

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

IMO wheeling on the hard frozen ground sux! So, if the local weatherman is correct, this might be my last time out for a while. Besides, after this trip, I might want to mellow out untill I get crossover steering and a front locker! I love this last pic. Now, where are everyone else's new 4x4 pix? Lets call this a friendly challenge for some other shots besides me!

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

Man you midwestern boys and the mud. Sure looks like fun, but I'd hate the clean up. I've not had much luck in the mud and each time I have it cost me $10 at the quarter car wash. I've still got mud spots on my dash from the last time. But that's the local mud, it dries like concrete.

Give me snow, or a mountain trail, some rocks, but no mud please!

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

I was trying to climb this big hill in a deep rut when I decided to try it "one more time". Only because I had an audience. Low and behold I got stuck about 180 feet up. The back end dropped into a big hole, the left rear quarter panel slammed the frozen hill side, the rear diff high centered on the frozen ground (hate that) and the right front tire stuck way up in the air (love that). Fortunately, the "audience" helped pull me out. Good thing I carry about 200 feet of rope and chain. I think a new spring project is going to be fabricating a new rear bumper and some kinda bolt-on guard to help protect the rear quarters...and of course new front D60, locker, and crossover steering.

Working on that very same thing myself.

Amazing pic, very hard to get pics to "look" steep.

Thanks, most these pix dont do justice to the size and and scope of some of these hills. But I think the shot with the towrope looks cool.

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

I think that was my 3rd try. What happened is my back end fell into a hole my front end dug on the 2nd try. At first my 6 year old daughter and I were having fun shaking back and forth getting the truck to rock side to side. We have been in this position enough times before. The scary part was getting pulled violently back down the hill. I made her get out and stay a safe distance away because it was pretty close to going over. The snow is fun but it hides a lot of trouble...
