son of a Pregnant Dog this was a hell of a trip. It started with Paulybee finishing up his tuneup in my driveway 8am in the morning.

We got going and made it to Rock Creek rd. at around 11am , aired down and started the trail.

since I got stuck every 10ft I didnt take many pictures but I did learn how to shovel like a pregnant dog.

these are 36" iroks aired to 2psi buried

I think we were getting close to the green gate when I lost my passenger side bead . I have Staun Internal beadlocks that didnt seem to do their job. Im gonna remove the tires to see what the problem was.

I dont have pictures of the blown bead situation because we had 3 oldschool Bronkos behind us and 2 toyotas and a jeep coming down Rock Creek rd in front of us with very limited passing space. So I got the bead setted asap.
Got the tire fixed and let the traffic pass.
.

We were gonna head up a little further but when paulybee went to start his truck it didnt want to do nothing else but play his radio (its an automatic). We checked the fusses, wiring , hammered on the starter to no avail. Then we see Squirrel heading down , he stopped and told paulybee to roll thru his gears with the ignition engaged.  Turned out to be a neutral safety switch connection failure . We got it started and headed home.
