Well its not much compared to some on here. And i only had my cherokee about 2 months and this i did just yesterday.
Ok so you have the whole story. The snow had just melted and the ruts where straight mud. So i went down the ruts one way and was throwin mud having fun, and only rubbed the diff a few minor times not to bad, so turned around and was making my way back, and well i dug the ruts down even deeper and on the second go around i got high centered to say the least, i could turn every tire on my jeep freely...Conclusion- I am now definatly considering 33's
Which eventually led to this.
This is in my old ford(3" lift with 33's), doesnt look that stuck but what you cant tell is that is a draw filled with snow about 4 foot deep and it just so happened that my hub was going out in the front and when i hit this and needed it most it completly stripped out thats why the back is dug down to the axle and the front is still on top of the snow(it was hardly packed drifted snow, but with any power just sunk the tires) I more like the pic for the recovery vehicle, it was the only thing on the farm i could get to start in the cold weather

Is this up West of Houghton Lake? Looks like a place on the snowmobile trail I've taken my dirt bike.... so soft I couldn't hardly get any traction on the dirt bike. I had to spin it around (after some effort) and actually walk it back to the firm ground. Not enough traction to even ride it. lol.
