when in doubt throttle out!

 

Exactly. I've been in deeper and worse stuff in 2wd on stock bald street tires, and all you gotta do is throttle out and turn the wheel

 

Turning helps in 2wd? It sure didn't in my old XJ....

 

Yeah not to mush but enough to kind of get u out of the rut.

 

some sand/clay is a whole lot slipperier than it will look.

as for the boggers, they are only good if you're going straight or on flat ground. if you're on a side slope, you will only do the same as the op. except you will be able to turn and burn. but sitting on a side slope is just as scary as hell.

glad you didn't go for a swim. did you get any shrooms?

 

sand is def an issue with all terrains , and baja claws . and simlar tirres . only ones ive used in sand . when using in sand i usually put in 4 lo . and run it in 3rd , this gives you a lot of torque , thus not letting you stick . in two wheel . you will dig a hole with those tires mentioned , and almost never get out if you dont have 4wd , or another rig. also in sand you cant floor it with those tirews . you have to let 3rd let you walk out with ease.

 

With auto we don't have the option to use 3rd lol and 4 low doesn't spin the tires fast enough and move enough mud out of your way, plus it's only meant for low speed crawling and is bad for the t case.

 

I wanna see a pic of those tires when you get them washed! It is always I bit freaky the first time you deal with something like this when wheeling. You wanna see paranoid, my roommate was scared to go up a dirt hill, literally just a hill, no ruts, no rocks, not slippery, no surprises... So yea, I can totally see not wanting to get into a worse situation there!

 

x2 on limited options with an auto for low gearing. You can do the 4 lo, with the tranny shifted into 3rd, but it's still easier to leave it in 4 hi for speed options.

 

Get yourself a set of these! Great tire on the road and in the mud!

 

Durasucks lol my buddy has them on his XJ and I call them the M/T tire for little girls, just to mess with him....

 

Thanks man! I appreciate that. I have AAA u think they would have helped, I wasn't on a trial just by the river a wrecker could have got there easy. I just wonder....

 

Ya that was a lot slipperier than it looked lol

Ya I'm so glad I didn't go for a swim haha and no mushrooms.... :-(

 

I'll get a pic of them here in just a little bit when I go out side. and the hills never really scare me UNLESS they are super steep like feel like u could flip backward steep. But most of the time I'm fine with the hills, only had to back down one, and the real reason was bc I didn't know what was in the other side. Haha

 

This is also my DD so that would have been double bad!!!!
