Re: 4X4 Action Pix
The is back. The creek is barely running but the rangers have the gates closed so the rest of the park was way crowded...lots of bikes & quads. My rig might not twist like a jeep but we sure put her to the test today.

Re: 4X4 Action Pix
Wow did we get stuck! The whole truck (front and back) was high centered in this hole, not to mention she was leaning against the ground on the driver side. We generated quite a crowd. After the winch wouldnt pull her out forward and a Cherokee couldnt pull her out backwards, we had this big suburban do some violent yanks to get her free...thanks guys! Of course after all that this Bronco with front locker went throught the same hole twice to show me up but he never did drop his tires in the same hole, just straddled it until he had battery trouble, typical Ferd just kiddin, good people all, good fun!

Re: 4X4 Action Pix
Jack, yes I know how lucky I am to have this free park only 6 miles from my house. (and I only live 3 miles from downtown!) Its ironic how many people I hear *****in about the place. Its better than nuthin'. A whole lot better! Heres a better looking touched up pic from before.

Re: 4X4 Action Pix
I've never seen so many rigs at the off-road park before. It was nuts! The local Hummer club was there in force, musta been at least 25 of 'em!

Re: 4X4 Action Pix
As some of you know I've been debating on getting a Dana 60 front from a buddy......well, I broke a front axle-joint and stub shaft on my Dana 44, so....decision made. I'll start a new thread as I start working on the 60.
