muddin mishap

just wanted to share with yall a little of what the mighty 4 cyl 4x2 can do....

my buddy, has a 87 jeep wagoneer 4x4..its basically the same damn thing as a grand cherokee except older....well anyways, when he went mudding at his trails..he thought he could clear a small creek embankment..well he thought wrong....he ended up going nose deep into the other side of the embankment and stick in about 8 inches of mud at a 45 degree angle...me being left to help him, tried to dig him out..but it didnt work...so i decided to see if i could pull him out...sure enough after 3 tries...and 2 ropes later....he got out...all i can say, is toyota..even your smallest trucks can pull out jeeps

 

well im glad you had better luck than I did. I burned the hell out of my clutch trying to pull someones jeep out yesterday

 

I pulled a jeep out of a creek once. Tacomas are AWESOME. Why the hell did he think he could clear a creek?

 

And 87 Wagoneer?

That's like a barge on wheels. He probably did it because he doesn't give a shit about the vehicle. They are BIG HEAVY TANKS.

My jeep had Dana 44 axles under it from an 89 Grand Wagoneer.

You should ask the guy if you can buy his Dana 44 front axle - so you can put it under your tacoma (solid axle swap).

 

Nice!

 

I def dig that ranger! compliments to your cousin

 

damn man..that sucks...i just threw mine in 1st gear( its an automatic) and went to town..i burned some rubber trying to get him out but i finally got him

umm...your guess is as good as mine...he had mud all up in his engine compartment..not to mention i dont know how he didnt hydrolock his engine..but that is beyond me

yeah, mine is just a street tacoma with street tires..lol...i still pulled him out...and we are in the process of taking the parts jeep that he has and removing the axels from that to do a transplant...jeeps..you know how it is.. one is his toy and the other is to keep parts in it..haha

dude..thats sick as hell....what kind of transfer case is he running? do you know?

 

Very nice!! Those Wagoneer axles are the perfect fit under these trucks. It's amazing you can still find them.

But I must say...what's up with the A/T tires?

 

My GF's little brother got his F250 sunk up to mid wheel in the mud today and of course I was able to pull him out. Sadly some onlooker said that we may have needed to get a bigger truck to pull him out. The sad part is he was driving an 80's model taco!!!!! So I rolled my eyes and extracted the big lug like pullin a tooth! Tacoma for life!
