how good a time you had is directly related to the amount of mud on the truck when you get home, and you got some mud on there!!

did some wheeling myself this weekend.  went out with my cousin and his bronco.  he was leading and i watched him break through some ice and sink about 2.5 ft into mud.   that was a fun recovery.

I love the way the fenders are cut! How did you make them all even and how dif you cut them?

The fenders I didn't do a shop did them. They are cut and rolled so there are no sharp edges. If you look at them its a smooth finish look and they almost look like that's the way they came from the factory. The blazer on he other hand only has a 4" lift and 44s under her so the fenders were cut just with a saw. Its ok for a mud truck it doesn't have tags anymore lol except for parades and Other things then we just slap on farm tags.
