Oh there's already a mark of rust on both sides, but good point.
as stated by my stupid self earlier...
Can the rear brakes lock up causing it not to be able to roll??
I can't push it anywhere, then again im not very strong.
But the 6 mexicans that were here earlier couldn't push it either.
Help, i need somebody, HELP !!

You went mudding and now she won't roll at all? Am I understanding this right? Take a look at the brakes. I had a 3/4 ton years ago that did this and it took pulling the rims/tires and beating the drums with a hammer to pull em. The shoes had soaked up water (and brake fluid from a busted cylinder) and were like JB weld in there.

Just a thought.

If you have someone with a truck have them hook up and try to pull it a few feet with it in neutral and the E brake off.

Might also look to be sure the E cable didn't snag something and lock down.
