Yeap, that TJ was saving my friends and I all day. He pulled me out, then one of the guys I was with figured he would show me up with his CJ5, and promptly got stuck in my holes. So, the TJ pulled him out. Then another in our group in a CJ7 figured he would show us both up, but he ended up sliding off the trail and getting stuck before he could make it to that mudpit. So, the TJ figured he would go back through the mudpit the opposite way we had been trying to make it through to recover him on the other side, and promptly got stuck as well. He winched himself through the hole and rescued the CJ7. Very fun day of wheeling!

Hillclimbing.
Here's a few of my stuck today.
Went though the opposite way with no problems. I turned around to make another pass and..........
 Broke another axle. (three in the last year) 
Plan on swapping in a different front axle assembly(w/locker) VERY soon.

I talked w/ Nick at Kolak tonight and he hooked me up with "proper" part numbers for replacements.

Running ATs in the mud will do it to you every time.

Yes, but MT/Rs aren't a MT. They are a very aggressive AT.
