awesome pics. Wish they had events like that near where I live. My only question, you referred to your class as "stock" 4cyl? Kinda playing it fast and loose with the term "stock" aren't we? Or does it only refer to the engine?

Should be called more like 4 cyl street then 4 cyl stock. Only difference in this particular bog between 4 cyl stock and modified is the fact the modified trucks are not either registered or inspected. meaning not street legal.

INCOMING !!!!!!!!

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TRD-2181/

Tired of screwing with my two-piece adapter. Tried thicker homemade gasket with material from NAPA and then using RTV on top of that and I can still kill the engine when spraying carb cleaner around the base.

They price matched for me as well with these guys. http://www.race-mart.com/Trans-Dapt_...-TDP-2181.html

Also got another mud bog this coming weekend as well.

some aftermath of the last bog. This was after the fire hose wash and $5 in the car wash.

Woke up looked outside and it looked like the truck was taking a :toilet: in the driveway.







So I went to chipping with a pry bar and knocking with a mini sledge. That's about a half hour or so worth. Needless to say, I didn't get everything.

This would be him. Also run a quick search on here for boondockers mud bog in the trip/trail report section you'll find photos of it.

That truck is a 100% dedicated mud truck, bed looks like it's there but it's completely gutted out. Same with the engine bay. no inner fenderwells pretty much and it's sealed up pretty good with rubber liner. Truck weighs under 2500 lb.

Looked like you had a lot of fun. Trying to get the mud off of the inside rim can be a pain as it puts the tire out of balance and can make for a rough ride. Its always a good time.

A few speed bumps helps get that off.

$500 at the car wash! I'd ask for a refund of $495.
Looks like you need a better IFS shield, bash plate.
