I think it has happened to all of us.
I thought it would be fun to post some pics of your favorite stuck and/or broke moments.


From the early days. "Don't follow Tim, you'll get stuck!"

Pucker Ridge - Thought I'd match Tim & Ed, only to find out they never went...

Destroyed Front DS yoke & Front UCA = Slinky on top of axle, NO BUENO!
Used both winches to stabilize axle, 1 rear wheel drive, expert skill, & 2.5 hours to hobble back to my trailer. Man I'm glad I bought a trailer!

Lance, The guy that helped you when you broke with that Cherokee (cant remember his name...)... anywho, I guess he rolled it pretty bad recently and the cage collapsed. I guess it was pretty nasty. My buddy Brandon (White XJ) was telling me about it. last weekend.

If I must....
I had to go all the way back to 2008 to find a picture of Lee stuck.


Well, my first pics anyway! :lol:

To be fair, other Putters were stuck on that same day. But I'll never tell.

I knew if I threw the gauntlet down, someone would do my work for me. I really do not think anyone will find other pics of me stuck (please don't search Lily Pond bridge, please don't search Lily Pond bridge!)

Oops :lol:

Drove out under it's own power. Tweaked cage, bent rear main leaf and a tweaked front shock but otherwise wheelable.

Image



I had a sector shaft snap on the old optional exit to webber (stupid Scout parts. :lol: ) and I flopped within sight of the entrance going in. :roll:

Yea I've had some good ones. :lol: I've been really, REALLY lucky to not break a whole lot more parts than I have. Who knew a Toyota drivetrain would hold up to bouncing on rocks with 42" tsl's? :shock:

See? One pic of me stuck (stock by the way) and one pic of me broken (less stock now.) So that is all there is. No stuckage, no brokage.

The only time I can recall being truly "stuck" is in the Othello Mud Bog. And that was because my rear axle shaft snapped on 6k rpm launch. I still made it halfway down the lane... :D

I was trying to teach a young wheeler about the dangers of tree holes. I even slid under my rig to prove it. No pics of that I bet.

one reason we had snorkels in Alaska, never knew which end was going in the ice first. 36" TSLs

Image

different run, 2 hour recovery. 3' from ice to water, 3' deep water. pics do not do justice, especially for the below freezing temps.

I went back to the Darland Mountain Camp Schamp runs to find the classic picture of Curtis and I stuck in the snow pointing opposite directions. I discovered that some of greatest Stucks I've seen involve the Camp Scham run. Go back and look at those special stucks that make Camp Schamp special.
