Default A little Sunday wheelin!

Some of my buddies and I got together and did some wheelin around where we live.

Casey(Rubicon) testing his new 36" Iroc's out in some deep mud.


Casey Climbing a hill down in the Gravel Pit.


Casey attempting the Trench. Some background on the trench; No one has made it up the trench in 2 years, due to the severe wash out and steep incline. At the last minute we decided to strap casey over the top just so we could say some one made it up the trench.








Here is my JK stuck while trying to get through a small muddy cove. P.S. ProComp Extreme A/T' s are good on all terrain except mud(IMO).


Here is my girl friend driving my JK out of another cove that I got stuck in. This time I had to winch out. We had to snatch block, straight winching wasn't enough.



Here is a pic from the end of the day

Nah, I didn't want to risk breaking anything. Besides, I extremely doubt the possibility of my JK making it up that trench. Maybe after I get some more mods done to it.

Some pics of other jeeps trying the trench:

Video of my dad's Tj on the trench, and breaking his rear axle:

I love those pics! Especially the one with the 3 side by side. Mud is a blast but it takes FOREVER to clean up! Take a look at my Sunday wheeling...https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/anything-everything-22/fun-drive-could-use-winch-lotus-19697/

It is actually by lake whitney, where the mouth of the Brazos opens into Lake Whitney. There is few places left to wheel.
