I wanted to try out the new tires. The water was three inches deep, but the bed was quicksand. The Jeep had to be pulled out with an excavator.

Man I hope you don't have any issues getting that thing cleaned up. I had to attach some hooks to the frame. That is why I am on the ground in one of the pictures. It took me an hour and $26 to get the thing clean (not to mention 2 hours of deep carpet cleaning  ).

all you needed for that endevor was lockers and chains. Looks like the front end was mainly in the water, and the rear end was mainly in the muck. So when the tires started spinning, the water kept the front tires cleaner. After sitting in the water that long, i'd definately change out the fluid in the front exle, might as well do the rear at the same time too. |

Strewth! Did it go right under? I've got my KJ pretty dirty in the past, but how the heck did you manage to get mud all over the roof?!? |

Hahaha, wow that is great! Glad you got her outta there. Your KJ looks uber cool with all that sandy mud on it. I would not have washed it off....ok, my wife would have made me wash it off. |

Looks like some type of mining or quarry operation. If it was a quarry you may have found a silting pond. Can't even walk in that stuff. Almost had to excavate the dog from one once. |

It isn't the size of pants that bothers me...it is the skirt that she makes me wear that is the killer!
