How bad is getting stuck..

Got too ambitious. Stuck in da mud. And water. Exhaust pipe is under...how bad can it be?

 

put on your oldest rattiest clothes and go under your truck on a creeper with a hose and rinse everything clean.

Check the mudline on the rear differential. If you completely submerged it, and haven't done a diff-breather mod you should probably change the rear differential oil.

Then, if you didn't have water intrusion into the cab and the carpets weren't wet - I'd say you're good.

 

Don't turn it off when the exhaust tip is under water.

 

as long as you didnt shut the truck off while the tail pipe was under water, and your diff didnt get water in it, you should just need to give it a bath


EDIT: someone beat me to it

 

Other than the rear diff breather under water, it'll be fine. Now if you had to crawl out of the window, id say differently!

 

Not lookin good... Waitin on the tow team

 

Where would the rear diff breather be?

 

on the rear diff

and its underwater.....so you will need to change the fluid out.

Ya know.....it might not be under now that I look harder....either way...change it.

 

Been stuck deeper with a 3" lift, you'll be fine.

 

On top of the rear differential. It's a little metal nub that threads into the top of the diff.

 

Your gonna have to change your rear differential fluid.

 

It's on the top of the rear diff. Looks like a large valve stem cap....kinda.

 

But ya....like said....thats not bad at all.........spray out the bottom of crud......go do it again with a buddy to pull you out this time. And do the dif breather mod.......I have very little mech skills and I did it in about an hour taking my time.

 

Dude, start rockin that shit, sawing the wheel back and forth, keep your left foot on the brake a bit while you goose it and get that truck outta there. One or all should do it. Get some stones or pieces of wood, tree, branches under the tire that's spinning.
Then,next time,go with a buddy and a tow strap, some better tires and some better skills.

 

Thanks for the help boys. Slipped off my line and plunged into the icy depths

 

Pre runner in the mud, cool. Have been a LOT deeper, not stuck, but WAY deeper. Your fine.

 

Or get a 4wd

 

That mud/water in the cab..

Why don't you want to shut it off if your tip is under the water??

 

Compared to what?

Chlamydia?

 

No, it's a picture from inside the cab. The mud/water is below the doors.
