Had a fricken awesome day at Bundy today. Me and the soon-to-be wife went up with my buddies in BorderLine4x4 for a great day of wheelin. We had some pretty well equipt trucks in the group along with some mild daily drivers and that made for a fun mix. Lots of recovery today,lots of mud,one trailside repair,no major breakage and perfect weather!
Today was the first real test for my Bronco since doing the complete drivetrain swap and the POS kicked ass all day. I have never wheeled in something with this much power on tap. I learned that to much skinny pedal in the soft bottemless mud would just dig myself straight down to the frame in about 2 seconds.But the power was amazing when I was pulling everybody out. I give the Bronco an A- for the day{broke my parking brake cable which rubbed my tire all day}.
And again Dawn{wife} took the Liberty out and did a great job.She gets better everytime we go out.She follows her spotters instructions even against her own judgement and that damn Liberty has impressed me again for having no flexibilty and opens.With at least a rear locker and some sliders she will be much more impressive.

We all gave the RTI ramp a shot also.

Only problem I had all day was a dead battery on a long winch pull. Motor works flawless. I been driving it from Toledo to outside AnnArbor daily since I got it running.At 17mpg it gets the best mileage out of any vehicle I own!
First time wheeling in something with some balls under the skinny pedal.Made for a much better day!:thumb:

My set up I have it pos to pos and neg to neg its been that way for 5 years. I burned up my fuse box from doing a hard pull too long. Since I added the second yellow top its been fine. It's nice to help people out but it sucks when you mess your stuff up doing it! I think people who don't have a winch should stay out of the mud!

Iwould love to hit up Wellsville someday. Just hard to make plans like that with my work schedule.
