Winches

Lets face it everyone should have a winch, they are the jeep industries main support. Everyone gets stuck at somepoint and being without one can really suck. You hook up to anything that can hold some weight such as a tree or other vehicles. Winches usually hold anywhere from 3 to 5 tonns, perfect for any tow. They do have a cost though, anywhere from 2 to 30 grand can get you a nice winch, but they are a neccessity in the indusrty. If your going mudding make sure yours is working correctly or have someone who has one come with you in case.

Swampers

Swampers, the best thing to happen to offroading vehicles. With wide set tires and over 2 inch tread, gripping that mud or rock wont be a problem. With over 200 mm wide tires this is a promising buy if you invest in it. They take soo much beating and have so much time to wear down, also being made of hard compound rubber they dont leave strips, or the oil residue. They are worth alot but bewtween the use of them and the 2 years you can get out of them its an excellent buy. The angle of the treads throw out any water and mud that might become lodged while driving, simply spinning your tires in the mud will throw it all off giving you near perfect traction once again. Def something to look into if your interested in taking a vehicle out to go mudding.
