Went mudding today at noon with my cousin and our friend and just thought I'd share with you guys. Went at around the town just looking for a good spot and I suppose we found a decent one. The mud may not have been so deep (for a 4x4 anyway) but it was good enough for my 4x2. Didn't even have to use the hook this time!

Overall I had a lot of fun and hope to do it again soon but want more challenging mud ruts and what not. Not to get too ****y though. I suppose the "whoops" moment for today was me running over a huge chunk of cement (lol). Totally didn't see it until I heard "hgdsagjhdfnjhs!" Hit the cat I'm pretty sure.
But I guess I should start looking into that locker sooner than I thought! Any other inputs that could possibly help me out for off road worthiness?
Puddles that haven't been driven through can be very deceiving and deep by the way :D

did you wash your ex went you got done? The first pic shows mud on the tires but nothing on the fenders? But it clearly shows you going through a good splash up but nothing on the drivers side. But looks like you had some fun. And on the concrete let someone else go through first with a bigger lift and watch them. But that locker is really gonna help in the long run.
 






looks like u had fun in the mud
 


















Haha, I was wondering when someone would ask that! I decided to paint the grill black. The gunmetal was alright but it was starting to fade and have a cracked look. Left the chrome though. Just letting it sit for a few days then I'll put it on sometime this week.
