Roflmao, Isn't that the truth! The wife (open diff) and I (limited slip) had to work at getting up there and playing around. At the top we all took turns driving each others rides, and my son just couldn't wheel a stock Cherokee. After im lifted i plan to show him up, then teach him the technical end of being a wheeler.

I was sitting in his Cherokee with his buddy laughing at how hard of a time my son was having just trying to get mine to move. My old CJ that my son bought off me had 33 BFG MT's so he's never driven a stock 4x4 before. Boy did I laugh and laugh watching him!

There was actally 3 of those mud pits, they were half mud with water on top, but really fun to get through. Not too hard, but they were up to my door jam and made for some fun sloshing around

I've been sick as dog lately and haven't gotten anything done on the Jeep until tonight. My red led dash lights from Ebay came in the mail, so I had to put them in. Not only did all five work, but they even included a spare! They all work, and they are all the right color!
My new ones each have 5 leds on them
Left- new Ebay lights
Right- the old superbrite lights
