Default First Day Off Road (Pics)

Today was the first chance I've had to REALLY take my truck off road. It did great. I'm still waiting for my winch bumper to come in, so I had to use the ***-winch method, but it worked.

You'll need a lift if you will be installing a front winch bumper.
Gave you checked your front drive shaft to make sure it has been rebuilt or replaced yet, do you have CDL?
Great pictures.

Front drive shaft was rebuilt 8k ago. I do have a CDL, the P/O replaced the tranny and transfer case with an '04.

Now that I have good trails only miles from my house, I'm thinking I'll be doing more of this.

Great pics. Looks like a great time.
Those trails seem to have a little bit of everything.
