Me and my buddy Ed made it out there and had a good time there is a couple of new hill climbs out there I made it up no prob,but my buddy with both open diffs struggled. There was a ton of mud packing up the tires, also I got to use my winch finally, pulling my buddy out of the ditch at mud lake the superwinch LP8500 pulled him out no prob. I would love to come out to the walker run but have shoulder surgery on the 2nd, maybe next time

I got open diff's on my rig and I've never gotten stuck. The water works my rig over more then anything else.

Ya my buddy had open diffs,35s and 7 inches lift and he got stuck. You can see in the pic where he drug his diffs going in. Thats on the far end of mud lake if you want to get stuck, Ive seen a guy with 38s and lockers get stuck there
