Off-Road Prep.

Good floor mats!!

You would be surpised at all the stuff you can go through but if you get out of your truck, you'll track it inside your cab. Find the biggest floormat that will fit that have deep lugs in it. Works for me. Walmart has some very good ones that are fairly cheap.

A good ****** rope.

A short chain in case you can't put the rope where you need it.

Hooks on the front.

Just depends on how hard you want to hit it and how many chevies you want to pull out.

Raise you axle breathers as high as possible, t-case & tranny too if ya can. Be prepared to change all fluids in the truck if you get water anywhere, & make sure to check your wheel bearings if you have the hubs underwater at all.

Thanks for the tips guys, i don't plan on any really heavy hitting, i do have a 2.5 hour drive home. I think we'll romp on his quad's pretty hard, then take the truck out for a little fun, i haven't really had the chance to see what the 4X4 will really do for me so i figure while i'm up there, might as well find out.
