i have been wanting to try wheelin the Pajero for quite some time but have no front hooks...hmmmm :)
isn't this an OPEN trail run? front tow hooks would be a good idea but not 100% needed

In my experiences, the last thing i will ever go wheelin with is someone missing front or back or both towpoints. Also, no bald tires.
i have had the pain to send ill equipped rigs home.
This lesson needs to be used especially in WINTER.

Open trail run or not, tow hooks front and rear and decent tires are a bare minimum. CB's i let slide.

tom is being genorus at 12 psi. i start at 10, and have gone down to 8 psi. more then any other type of wheelin, you will find that in the snow, low pressures rock.

i agree that anyone planning on bring a truck into the bush should have the minimum of hooks front and rear and 31+ tires .. and no bald AT

because i have had to winch guys out of little puddles for no reason except that there truck was not meant for anything but road

on another note
i dont have bead locks .. running at 12 PSI  will still be safe

This true, except for those running Trux's.  You need to run them at 16psi if you don't want to lose a bead.   ;)

Back on the 1st? I thought that Apache wasn't kicking off their completion and abandonment program until at least the 5th. Unless you're headed somewhere other than downtown Zama...
I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(
