Guys, I've owned and operated jeeps and swamp buggies in S FL for over 20 years, I know how to use 4 wheel drive! Where I run you need 4 wheel drive once you leave the pavement (Big Cypress/Everglades)!

I took it out this past weekend and leaving my camp (the yard is grass) it popped again! I went and drove it in a slough that had anywhere from 6" to 2' of water and mud in it and it did not do it (maybe enough slippping to account for ratio diff????). The only thing I can think of is ratio diff., but I thought I'd ask on here to see if anyone else had seen something similar. The mechanic could have easily swithced them as he specializes in Jeeps and works on a bunch of them. I could see where it would be easy to do with so many Jeeps in 1 shop.

Anyhow, for those that offered help, thanks!
