we had alot of lite rain over the last two days we were out looking for a good spot to try out the 4x4 for the 1st time in it's 0000956 young miles.Wouldn't you know the very 1st hole we went into it dropped to the frame. I mean the tires and shocks were at FULL extention only good to that nite was that the water only got up to the running boards and not inside.When Tom got there after the cops (we had a good time) only then was when we found out we were in bigfoot country.Standing in the ruts to my *uts in cold water to hook the strap this place was deep thanks to the 38"guys.haha! Now since the 35's will rub would add a leaf be enough to clear them? Also i was told that the water could enter the hubs,trans. is this true and if so what else should i have looked at? We had a fun time for a change with the cops telling us to get on the water face down and to grab a tire a spred em.They stayed for the show and also to see if we not only dumb but drunk.Just dumb this time.I know one thing for sure those turbo 7.3s can pull in the mud..Thanks Tom..
