    Cool trick the guys in Baja use when prerunning with those boards is run some rope through them and tie them to a bumper. Why the rope? 2 reasons. 1. So they don't get lost in silt, where most trucks get stuck. 2. Once you get unstuck you keep going until you reach hard ground bringing the boards with you. That way you don't have to walk back so far to retrieve them

    yup, i've got ropes that clip on. It is a cool trick. I've used them more in snow than mud so far

    @Thegr8punkin allowed me to come down to his garage and installed my replacement leaf springs that @gosolo gave me off of his PRO. They returned the rear to original lift height once I added my AAL for additional weight support that David @ToyTec Lifts hooked me up with. The AAL was to supplement the existing leaf pack to handle the weight of te bed rack, RTT, and revovery gear i carry full time. Also, I was raised back up at least 2.5 inches and the truck looks/feels new again. Thanks to all of you guys for the support

    I'm sitting a little less than 4 inches, but I'm pretty sure it was more the day we installed your leaf pack and an add a leaf. I'm pretty sure I'm still carrying more than it likes at around 400 lbs
