I wish we coulda been there for it  but we left a few days ago. I'm in MO for now and Jolene (my g/f in the picture) is in KY. We'll be moved there though in April. I'd like to get a group together to do some wheeling down there once we get there.

I'd like to plan a meet and greet and maybe a trailrun or two within a month of getting there. I took Jolene wheeling with me for her 1st time in KY and she loved it. So she always rides shotgun  Whats the terrain like there? I mean should I plan on buying skids? Or is the money best spent other places?

I'd buy the front one, but I don't really think any more is needed. No rocks or anything..... just to protect the low tranny lines from sticks, etc... |

I'd look into a winch to be honest....when I got stuck, no wheels would've had traction...even with a locker.

This is a good idea at Florida wheeling (when it hasn't been raining): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgHIyLLdlj4 When it has been raining (which is often): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWJFRhFap9U Also be ready for this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A814W5uoHPE Just last week I had to drive through about 16" of water on BB Downs by 75. Headed to Target, started raining while I was there, on my way home the roads had already flooded. |

And skinny tires do wonders here. I ran 235s on my TJ and currently have 215s on my KJ (until then wear out then going 235). 255/85 is the ultimate FL tire. If you're smart about where you go, theres going to be hard bottom down there for those skinnys to grip. |

darn those first two videos look like fun Can't wait to get some of that!! I've been there when the roads are flooded...gets slick...almost wrecked my brothers Mustang lol. Some people swear by skinny tires, some swear by wider tires  Myself I've always liked the looks and performance of the wider tires. The Libby is so light when I airdown it seems like I've always floated on top of it all. Havent been stuck yet (knock on wood)
