Body Damage is Cool
Well my truck is stucker then... well iv never seen anything stucker in my life. I had a fullsize chevy on 42" boggers and a jeep on 36s with a winch both pullen on me and they couldnt get me out.

Anyhow heres my questions. I hyrdolocked my motor and all that *****. i poped the cover off the intake and took out the sparkplugs and got the water out
put starter fluid in the motor. started her up and i got a bad clicking now. water only came outta the first passenger side cylender so im hoping it might be a valve that got bent or somethen? So question is now (remember i have a v6) once my truck is out if it ever will be its been stuck for 2 days <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" /> how do i fix this problem? Im pretty much at the point where this might be the end of this rig. its getten pretty demolished trying to get it outta this hole.

Dosent look that bad i have seen worse.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Is thier no way for the toe vehicle to get directly behind you and pull? then have one pulling on the pasanger side at the same time to try and level the truck out and hopfully brake the suction from the mud.

problem is there is very little traction for the tow vehicals. the hardes ground is 50 feet away from the rig. Both the jeep and a the chevy on 42" boggers pullen on my barly budged me. Non of my tires r on the ground enough to traction. It doesnt look to bad in the pictures but the fact is its pretty much the worse situation i could possibly be in. My entire driverside of the truck is sunk into the mud.

Need a Spot
You might try renting a 4x4 backhoe. Saw someone bury a good size tractor with a 10' bat wing while mowing next to a pond one time. They used the rear bucket on the backhoe to kinda lift up a little bit and pull it out. A bulldozer would be good too.

Good luck.

Just a thought but it may be a good idea to try and shovel around and under the truck to break up the mud a bit, kind of make it into a more liquid soup, could help break suction and make a passage for backing it out when winching / pulling.
Long sturdy timber would be good to try and level it also while pulling, keep it from flopping.
Weekend is coming up, I would bring a couple of changes of clothes, you'll get it out, one step at a time with patience.
Chalk it up to experience Tyler!
Take care, stay cool

Know anyone with one of these exhaust jacks? Got a buddy in the Fire department or search and rescue? Heard they work great in soft mud where HiLifts sink.

Good luck, man that thing is really buried.
