Anyone else have some photos from times being stuck?!

Couldn’t believe the winch still worked great with the Oem front rack.

Good time with friends.

Yuk, What were you thinking? No I don't have any stuck in mud pictures, I prefer to ride on TOP of the mud not submerged in it. Lucky you got out of that situation. Does it still run? Any long term damage CV joints, Wheel bearings breaks, bushings you name it.

LG it’s a four wheeler! No damage to, just cleaned her up good afterwards.

Exactly why I put a winch on mine. Better to have one and never need it than to need one and not have it!

Can I post ATV mud pics?

I've got a lot of experience with waterproofing..... it's really not that hard to make them run under water...2 pictures are stuck
One picture running ready to go with me standing next to it.
The mud bike in it's glory.

For me, just me…… the OP looks like a great day of fun, he had help, seems nothing broke, and everyone got real dirty. Perfect. That mud hole is what I used to aim at.

Not Stuck. This is as bad as I ever want to get into. I hate cleaning it off and trashing the concrete slab inside the shop where I park. I prefer a clean machine :)

I sold the mud bike and bought the Ranger a couple of years ago. I don’t even turn into the mud holes now, there’s no way it could go anywhere near what I did to the Highlifter Sportsman. That thing was a beast.
Like the dog hanging out dry in the Ranger.
He’s obviously smarter than me

One place I go, we don’t travel when muddy as it jacks up the roads. Hours to clean up the buggy then another half day to repair roads. That stopped being worth it, so we stick to high roads.

The other property we go to is different story….Sand/Mud mix and if water standing you risk entering quick sand hole. If that happens there wouldn’t be much to take photo of except bubbles where you lost a lot of
Money.

Does look like fun though…in somebody else’s machine.
