What did you run the Dusy with? I know I shouldn't even go there to play, but Chicken Rock has got my interest. Mainly I need friends to go with. Most of mine have "retired" from 'wheeling. Except the guy with the built Rubican and several other cars to drive, and he mainly likes to go break stuff...
TxJake, where I live is plenty flat, I dare say flatter than most of OK, it's just a much shorter drive to get to the mountains  .

Ran the dusy in my buddies early bronco with front and rear lockers and a 9000 LB winch. We used the winch quite a bit after we broke the second front axleshaft! I have more or less retired from wheelin' as well except for around my own ranch. Every once in a while i'll have too much whiskey and some friends from the city talk me into abusing my poor old 66 bronco with a 6 cylinder and NP435 4 speed and front and rear detroit lockers
. Maybe when the kids are grown and I have some spare time(and money) again I'll get back into the wheelin trips. My 240d probably sees more off road than most 4x4's do though. Last pigeon season I put some snow tires on it and was able to follow the trucks anywhere they went. One time I got "stuck" but all it took was a little pushing from a few guys and I was on my way again. For some reason my 300sd is a complete turd in the dirt though. It will barely make it up my road even when it is dry. I usually have to get a running start or I'm screwed, and when it is wet- forget it. It just spins the tires then slides off the side!
