lol you made your point with the stuck chevy, really nice comback but i still prefer the full sizer even if it means pulling out the straps sometimes, anyways seriously you cant compare a jeep to an s-10 , jeep is a real off road rig, s 10 is crappy thing that a K5 craps out,    just kidding  but seriously no s-10 in comparable form to a jeep will do better offroad, unless it has solid front axle but thats a major mod  
solid axle chevys cant be beat

i cant wait to show you my 79 cherokee when i get it done...im getting closer now and i know a s10 isnt gonna go where my cherokee will go...and if i get stuck and an S10 want to try and pull me out, ill let him try...and if im stupid enough to get stuck i wont be that stupid to let somebodys s10 try and yank me out,i wont put down a helping hand like sanomaking.

wow.....this thread kinda took off! i bailed from it awhile back and here it is again.....LOL. at least jimma (being an s10 owner) has an open mind to this debate. my wife had my STOCK except for 30" tires stuck to the axles in the following pic. i got it out in 4 high on one shot (sorry no video, you'll have to take my word for it)









by the way, this was taken after moving most of the dirt/mud back into the general location that it flew out of.

it's cool gordee. i noticed a few posts back, someone was saying about how all jeep parts are straight bolt on's and pickup guys gotta fab everyting......funny thing is, i see alot of companies offering bolt on this and bolt on that for pickups too. i think the guy said something about fabbing a four link suspension. maybe he should go over to jpmagazine.com and check out the custom four link onto a full size axle that a guy did. his user name is jeepnut4life. hey mud, if you see this, maybe you can pull up his pix.
