Bozrah, CT recovery mission
My buddy and i Both have our jeeps stuck in some nasty mud in Bozrah, CT. If anyone has a jeep or winch and wants to lend a hand we'd really appreciate it. The 3rd jeep that was with us ripped a control arm off his frame so he cant do pulls. thanks!!
~Brad

Don't wheel in the mud.
I'm not that far away and just got my rig running again. Road manners are not that great though. Send me a PM if you are still stuck.

Brad I guess even with a built rig you can get stuck. WOW
I'm off if you are still stuck.

finally unstuck, getting 2 jeeps out of mud over the axle tubes is not easy without a winch and without a 3rd vehicle to tow with. We ended up making due with a lot of shoveling, hi-lifting and the 3 ton come-along
