    I should have got out of that but the truck started loading up bad. Come to find out the air filter was solid mud. So now I'm trying to figure out a snorkel.

    You don't need a snorkle for that bud you just need to find the hose or spot on the box thats leaking if you insist on going that deap though grease all your joints and connections on your air box that will keep most the water and mud out. But use the wheel action more at first then once your stuck going back and fourth more than once or twice keep it straight and try and follow the ruts allow your truck to build speed and after thats not working a time or two time to invest in 37" tires or larger with an agressive tread and most deffinately a locker in that rear open diff with atleast 3.73 gears with 35" tires a 4.10 set would be better.

    Great video though getting stuck is half the fun other half is drinkin a beer watchin someone else digging there truck out of the mud....lol:waytogo:

    Lol 2011F150 have you owned a 10 gen? Its easy to find where the mud gets into the airbox. The stupid thing breathes out of the inner fender directly above the drivers side tire. The only thing between the inlet for the airbox and the world is the plastic wheel well lining.

    But yea it's getting gears in the spring. Probably swap the rear l/s for a Detroit locker and put a tru-Trac in the front.
    I'm thinking 4.56 gears but may do 4.88 in case I do go bigger

    That's kinda my thoughts too. When these tired wear out a 3" body and 38's would sure look good
