It looks like a teeter toter, (sp?)  You drive on it and try to balance your rig on the halfway point.

Thanks, to fancy for us, we drag a 8' log off of a logging pile, get a second one a bit longer 12'-15' have it split in half and make a wooden one ;D

+1  I want to know how well that X-90 made it through all that deep mud.

ALSO, how many of you guys are using rear-DISC Brakes vs. How Many of you guys were using rear Drum brakes?

Were there any problems encountered with the brakes & Tcase getting water inside, etc.?

Well i've never gotten any water problems, X90's do have rear drums. The T-case's all have nice high mounted breather hoses. Snorkel does come in handy though.

the X90 did fine,   its basically a tracker underneath and he is running the calmini 3 "  he was doing well.

we all managed to get stuck at some point due to that mud ,  


k9RDJ is about to break his truck for parts he is giving up again,    

I use drum and find them to be a pain, my mate Nick , aka Ningram runs discs and finds them a lot better,

I will switch to disc at some point,  I have a spare axle i will do the converstion on later this year,  


My t/ cas &gearbox all has extended beather pipes and i dont suffer from water,  even the bell housing breather at the top is sealed with a breather on it and a make up drain bolt at the bottom...

front axle still gets a bit in but i change that as regular as i can.     Rear diff never lets any in.
