man you stuck pretty good but i cant beleive your buddy couldnt get you out of that and you there all day

 

i just noticed it sorta looks like you might have a winch on your bumper ??? its hard to see in the small pic tho

 

Honestly. thats nothing. We got 4 Jeeps stuck in a bog up to the frame took us 12 hours to dig out with a come-along.

 

all four of you got stuck ? now thats a bad day lol

 

That was just the Jeeps that were stuck in the bog. my Jeep has its fuel pump commit suicide that night on the trail trying to go pull them out.(ended up having to do a pump swap on trail.) And another guy who brought us a chainsaw and a bunch of other stuff ended up getting his YJs front bumper hooked around a small tree. so total we had 6 Jeep stuck.

 

LOL! Nope, definitely no winch.

Yeah and the reason for the small pics, is my friend had to downsize them in order for him to send them to another friends phone, who then uploaded them onto his computer and then Email them too me.

 

Yeah, we dug for 12 hours minimum. 6 1/2hrs the first night. Didnt get home till 10:30. Frost started growin on everything, and the ground started freezin up. I was like, OH WONDERFUL!

Yeah...I dont think Im gonna try to be the hero about anything, anytime soon, unless I KNOW I can get myself outta my own perdicaments

But 4 JEEPS!!! WOW! That would of really sucked! Luckily enough for me, my Jeep was just a short walk from where I live...bout 5-10 minutes. The only reason I wanted it OUT, was because alot of people go through there, and I didnt want some punk kids makin off, with alll my tools and sh** that I have in my Jeep.

 

Haha, it really did suck. and we were a good 10 minute walk from the entrance to the trails. that doesn't even count the 15 miles I was already away from home.

 

Ya you got er stuck real bad. No problem. I have been there done that. Most of us have. I saw a guy that nothing could get him out except a skid stear. That cost him $500 if I remember right.

 

Yeah, I know.
We couldnt get the damn water out to see anything. Plus all the sand and whatever had made its way around all my drivetrain components...tore out the grease fitting on my front driveshaft. Half my front axle was totally encased in sand/mud mix...including through the spring, rim and whatever else it could flow through, even the brake disc had **** crudded in it.
And then you still gotta worry bout the damn sunction that junk has.

Im looking at a MileMarker 12,000lb hydraulic winch that has its own seperate 12v pump.
I dont want to get stuck ever again!
And then after that, some ARB air Lockers.
But I work at some **** job. So its gonna take some time to aquire this stuff, so in the mean time I'll unfortunately just stick to the easy stuff.

 

I dont even know if Ide be thinking logically at that point, lol

 

We weren't. I think we cut down like 6 or 7 trees. Not but ones but stuff like 2-3" in diameter. We needed the wood to put under the tires of the Jeeps for Traction but cutting the trees down was just overboard

 

lol, I paid $500 for my Jeep, minus the lift, tires & bumpers tho.
But my cars are worth a Hell of alot more then that to me.
Especially my '91 E30 BMW 318i, that Im gonna turn into a Desert Racer with atleast 15 inches of suspension travel. Front suspension is already figured out, its the rear suspension thats gonna be interesting. Im thinking of using its semi-trailing arm setup it has and improving upon that. But Im also gonna have to find some high angle CV shafts that will be able to go from the rear diff to the wheels.


OK, so my job dont suck that bad...I just got expensive hobbies.

 

Yeah I hear ya...
the craziest thing I did i think was dig a trench that was like 2 feet deep & 15 feet long...trying to drain the water out of the hole my Jeep was stuck in. Until all the water in the surrounding earth (marsh) filled in the hole I was trying to clear....so we pretty much dug that trench for nothing.

 

Hahaha. thats kinda funny. we ended up pulling a 40 foot tall rotted tree down because we didn't realize it was dead before trying to winch off it with the come-along
