did you have to do cab mount chop for the 255s?

 

what size tires are you running now?

 

I'm just gonna say @NorilskSever didn't have luck on his side on saturday. We almost lost a truck and the driver in separate incidents. But everything worked out for the most part. lol

 

I have 285/75r16's and he has 265/75r16's. Both KO2's.

 

did you end up needing the CMC for them?

 

Ya, I took about an inch out. They still rub at full stuff and lock. But on the road they never rub.

 

Did I have fun? F*ck yeah!
Would I do it again? For sure!

Anyways, the truck is doing perfectly fine. It has to be at work tomorrow morning so I did most of the cleaning and repairs today.

Pulled the carpet out, now I finally have a reason to get that vinyl floor that I wanted before.
No damage to the electronics, water didn't really reach that high. @Jake4848 and I worked really quick to get the truck out of water, so it's all good there.
Passenger door at the back needs some buffing and touch up.
Camping was great, we had some card magic, joggling and practiced for a burning man a little bit, literally.

Anyways, here are some pictures for you all. I'll upload edited video sometime later too.


P.S. @Thyces did you end up ordering the vinyl floor?
P.P.S. @Jake4848 we got to do the night run next time.

 

Seems like a great run!

 

Is that a hidden winch mount or a hidden hitch on your truck?

 

No. I haven't really done too much lately other than a slotted grill insert and wash n wax.


This looks oddly familiar....

 

It's a hidden hitch mount from Mobtown Offroad.

 

I thought so... looks pretty stout!

 

You think sliders would have pushed you out far enough for this to have not done as much damage? Or it was a tree up higher than sliders would have helped with?

 

Hard to say honestly, truck started sliding too fast in the mud & tree was kind of at an angle I think. But sliders now are on my list, chainsaw sliders...

The day before we did the same trail & everything went fine tho, so just a bad luck it was.

 

How did you get so much water in there haha

 

General stupidity?
Went a feet to the right from the trail, to another trail (at least it looked like it). Truck got stuck in the mud under water, first 2 minutes it was fine then I see water coming in the cab. Then I am climbing thru the window to recover the truck asap. Intake was still 2-3 inches above the water tho.

 

time for a snorkel haha.

 

Sliders first, chainsaw sliders...

 

Nope. Still running a sway bar though.
