Stuck Tacoma's-Lets see 'Em

Might add it's unadvisable to hook any straps or cables or chains to the tow ball. They've broken off and killed people before.

 

i really need to get a new rear bumper. stock tacoma has no rear tow points. ive managed so far but its getting old. i put on a tow ball because its better than nothing. i wouldnt use it for hard pulls. i realize its unsafe.

 

True, but no other options. The tow driver went swimming looking for a place to hook on, but it was buried pretty deep by that point. When he got it far enough out of the mud he hooked onto something down by a rear wheel- axle maybe? I didn't actually see what he put the cable around, but... it worked out, anyway.

 

Wasn't trying to criticize just trying to help

 

I see Oklahoma plates, where was this?

I didn't take it negatively, just explaining the situation better.

 

How about some entertaining 5 lug stuckage?





Story: Another member and I, Kmok (Kyle) went looking for something to do. Found this to try and run through. I, obviously, got stuck on the original way through. Somehow I hit my brakes rather than the gas, believe me, braking was not my intent. She bogged down and wouldn't move. A little hook-up and yank from Kyle and I was free. I took a shot of the LR wheel, the one that was buried, but it never processed the pic in the camera.

I did make it back through that slop going the other way though!



This pic is from a meet @ MaxTacoma's place. First time I'd really ever tried to do anything "offroad" with my truck. Truck and I were both offroad virgin's so it all ended in failure. I tried to run it a couple times and kept getting stuck/caught in the same spot. Parked at the bottom of the hill and rode in another truck.

hahaha, & dont it smell GOOOOOOOOD !!

 

Incorrect. Since you have the tow package, use the hitch pin or buy one of these. You could also remove the ball and stick a d shackle through there.

 

I would do that, but i dont have the tow package. right now the ball is through the chrome factory bumper :/ sketchy i know.

 

^^^thats some nasty shit!!

 

Where in NJ was that?

 

gotta let me know when u guys head out there.. i beat around out there today after for a bit.

Thats about an hour from where I used to live. Is it all pines and mud?

 

Wow, thats some SOFT land! I'd hate to be in that situation.

 

Makes me sad to see, I got hung up on my front diff one time SO BADLY. I was stuck IN NOTHING, just a random tree stump, flexed out funny, and bottomed out on a damn stump!! WTF

Then 5 seconds after that I go through 3 feet of mud...

 

mmmmmmmm thats real nice

 

God I hate mud...lol...I dont touch mud or water anymore. I have learned my lesson and I love my truck too much to submerge it like I used to.

I will leave the muck to the dumb rednecks in their chebys and ferds

 

I used to like mud. It's still a little fun, but it's very annoying when your tires stick out a little bit, and spinning your tires in one puddle completely block vision on one side of the truck.
