Prokopchuk_9 · February 1, 2010

just went and had a little fun last night...the snow is gettin there, it never really snows lots here till mid-feb i find. last year this is about the time we started to actually get a couple feet on the ground. first time i really tried the 33x12.5 dick cepek FC 2's in the snow. i was really impressed actually, they did really good. snow isnt that deep yet, give it a month ill go out again then we will see how they do. i was still hittin dirt if i spun down still. but they seemed to clear good. anyways dont mind the pics from a cell phone ....

last one...the truck was really feelin laggy was wonderin what the hell was goin on. so i rammed it back a little to discover i was plowin about a foot of snow with the bumper. ahaha. so i took a pic of the snow i was pushin along. then continued my journey. i got stuck later one but my phone died. couldnt take a pic . good thing i carry enough recovery gear in my truck to pull a tractor trailer out. or i would been WALKIN.

it is but its hard on the tranny...it gets pretty warm after awhile. cuz you gotta really give it gas and ur spinnin like a mother F'er to go like walkin speed. no air hittin the cooler. i almost had it in the red a couple times ahaha... good ol' 4 speed. ive beat the SNOT out of that thing. it still wont slip and the oil is always good. cant kill it.

I did the same thing but in deeper snow and my transmission makes a bad whinding noise shifting out of 1st gear now. changed the fluid and filter and it still makes the noise

ya it snowed a whole wack more here the other day too. dont know how much is on the ground...not as much but almost i bet. im not doin that again this winter, got stuck pretty bad....was alot of work. man one time a few years ago just south of ft. mac. i got stuck out on a lake, took me 8 hours to get out and a burnt tranny lol. was 4 feet of snow and like a foot of slush underneath. i decided to take a little de-tour off the ice road ahhaa. bad idea...i got pulled out by a duallie and another 3/4 ton hooked together. i gave up started walkin, luckily a guy pulled over to offer help and he had a buddy not far behind i wish i had pics of that it was pretty bad lol.
