    Just spent the past five days romping through southern Utah. I hit a wide variety of different spots but I was primarily in the South Eastern part of the San Rafael Swell, Robber's Roost, and Capitol Reef. I took my lovely lady out wheeling on a couple of different trails and she performed flawlessly. I did manage to give the truck some character this weekend... I broke off the towing hookups housing and I also ran my lower drivers side door frame into a rock while I was attempting at not falling off an old Uranium mining road that hasnt been maintained since the 1950s. I will probably just clear coat the exposed metal to prevent rust and then its time to get some sliders! Any suggestions or sales anyone knows of??
    And I even managed to get it stuck!!! I was trying to get my truck real close to the hotspring we were swimming in and I backed right into a bentonite clay muck puddle. I had the diff lock on, in 4lo, with A-Trac and the truck wouldn't budge even after I had dug out small tracks for each tire and wedged my floor mats underneath the wheels. Luckily I had my tow strap and a guy in a Ford-250 came and gave me a tow....
    Here are some pics:

    this is where I bumped the rock with my drivers side, except I was going the other direction.
    Axle deep in the muck!
