Took a break from hunting to offroad
Yeah took a break from hunting and stopped by a little offroad spot. Hopefully I can get lucky later this afternoon but killing some time now.
Just had my cell phone so



This one kind of looks cool with the glare


Couldn't make it over the ledge at that angle

But did here and went straight up haha

and I tried to force it up but it was just digging in up to the shackle. There was like a 3' ledge there in the middle of the hill.
even if I did make it up it would never have gone over the transfer case skid
thats what its there for :D
but getting stuck when you're out alone sucks.
that's why i'm ditching my rear bumper.. if the shackles don't dig in the bumper does. I'm afraid that my front one's are gonna do quite a bit of digging as well.
a guy in Houston is selling some 36x1350 Iroks for $350, supposed to have 75-80% tread left, i'm just waiting on an email back, and getting very impatient. another option is 37" MTrs for $300 or 5 35" MTrs for $500.
screw spending 500 on 2 tires when i can get a set for less.

yeah but I keep the covers on when they aren't being used because I've had 2 lights busted by rocks on the front. Then these are bigger so even more of a chance.
One of the covers has a chunk of plastic knocked out of it too from a rock hitting it.

especially swampers because they show pics with the sidewalls and they still look good until you see the actual tread depth haha
you could probably almost buy 2 new sets of LTB's for 1 new set of iroks

yeah me too. I want to go somewhere with actual trails but I just won't have time until this spring maybe.
The thorns tear up these swampers since they are so soft, so I need to offroad outside of damn mesquite trees haha. Had to patch one of them dammit.
