    Damn that first crossing is pretty deep and wide. Did you walk it first or just go for it?

    Come have a beer and we'll talk.
    How important is a rear diff breather extension mod for crossings like this? I’ve done a few small creek/river crossings in my 17 ORbit worry sometime about water getting into the diff. I do go slow and try not to hangout submerged for longer than I need

    Cool thread. We didn't have cellphones when I was younger and doing stuff like this. I would have had a ton of pictures and video.
