A couple of weeks ago, I decided to go on a winter wheeling trip. Ended up getting stuck about 30 yards from the trailhead and couldn't keep going down the trail. Not much, but she is still stock. There was about 5in. of ice over the mud hole. Once I broke through, I couldn't go forward or backward.




Took me about an hour and a half to pull myself out using my Hi-Lift.

Only working 3 months out of the year means that lift kits and lockers are a little out of my price range.

Might be getting a shackle/spacer kit this summer. But I just spent $400 on these tires, and can't really afford to buy bigger meats. I don't really see the point of putting on a lift (more than 1-2" or $150), or go through the headache of a JY lift setup and still have the same size tires I'm running now. Plus, my dad is a machanic. He's not real found of piecing together things on my rig.
