How did we all get interested in 4x4s or boggin??

[7387chevynut]

For me, it was the fact that my dad owned a 76 cj5 which as a kid I remember my mom yelling at him and me cryin my ass off cause he wanted to try an get through a steep ditch beside some rail road tracks. We did alot of off roading with that jeep.

What really got me into 4x4's and chevys, was that my dad bought new a 83 silverado burban 1/2 ton 4x4 and a sharp apple red 85 stepside scottsdale 10 4x4. he always ran Power Cat type AT tires on both, and I remember him pulling out several peaple when we went hunting/camping on state land when i was a kid.

I also had an uncle who bought new, and still has it a 76 K20 and he used to beat the hell out of it, gettin it stuck.........I was always interested in his truck................and in 05 I bought one near identical to his & same year, except mine was a auto.....his a stick.

Also had 2 cousins who were into old chevy 4x4s when I was a kid, and I remember lookin at pics in peterson's 4x4 offroad magazine.

SO what got YOU interested??

[big red]

well we went to one last year on caine road, and i was addicted from the point on. my mom dont like it much, shes not an outside person but my dad would do it with me if mom went, so i dont get to go much right now not driving.

i have always played in the mud with something. I had a few 4x4's but never bogged them like i do now. I have heard about the mounds but never been there until i met a few of we got mud members at a bog 4-5 yrs ago then i got my quad and then the first of many trackers.

[4x4fun]

Ive always been a horse power junkie but i guess what did it for me was living in Colorado and seeing all the chopped up rock buggies and beat up rock trucks in the mountains... just looked like so much dam fun.. A friend of mine had a 72 jeep camando we beat the hell outta out there.. then i moved back here and got a real job that allowed me to build one and so we did.. Hell i never thought about mud boggen tell i had The Mutt basicly togather enough to drive on the street and then found We got mud.. now i have to feed my new addiction to mud.. thanks guys!
looking foward to next years bogs and Mounds on T-day!

[Crazymays77]

yeah speaking of feeding the addiction i'm freaking out now about not getting to play in the mud and its way to cold out for me to be playing in.

[mudboggincrazy]

[4x4ZR2]

i was always into trucks. prolly started with the tonka trucks lol. everyone in my family thinks im crazy for what i do with my 4x4s but thats what there built for right. 1st 4x4 was a 91 s10 had 5in lift and 32s. beat the piss out that till it about fell apart. sold it and bought a zr2. wasnt as hard on it but the front diff didnt like the combo of swampers and rocks very much. did a sas with 36s and the trans didnt agree for very long...so now it sits again with a blown trans. gotta love wheelin!!!

[TBigLug]

When I was 12 years old I bought a 1976 Ford F-250 4x4 off of my uncle. Been downhill ever since!

[73chevytruck]

when i was about 12 my dad was makeing a driveway at are property with his 75 chevy k20  by having it in 2wd and reving it, and i was looking at the dirt and mud flying and it kinda started from there,  the truck sat there for a few years and i kinda too kit over after that, got it running, put header, a better carb, aluminum intake, and some 285 cooper discoverer stt's,  then started playing with the truck in the fields and then going to bogg's then got the itch to go bigger, now i got a 73 chevy k20 with 4" susp lift 4" body lift sitting on 38.5's and still want to go bigger,   ran in to the wegotmud website from someone telling me to look on here while i was serching for some parts, now been to the mounds and boggs all over lower michigan

I bought my first 4x4 off of my sister-in-law about 5 years ago, 91 s-10 Blazer, took it out into the woods and beat on it until it broke then drove it home, I miss that truck...

[Mudboggincrazy's Old Lady]

I've been a mud kid my whole life.. i spent all my birthdays including my first camping in sterling playing on the trails.. my dad had a 86 burban that he took us through everything with and as soon as i could drive i played in the mud with it at about 7.... and my dad had the dodge that i am rebuilding and he took us up and down every trail he could find..  ooh the memories of being young. cant wait to raise my kids the way i was to the best of my ability. Bring on the lil rednecks lol

[bwdramcharger]

i have always loved trucks and getting dirty so what a great combo have bogged in all sorts of things i shouldnt have . in high school i had an 81 chevy citation and took that out in fields and everything else my parents hated it cause i had a buddy cut out part of the rear bumper and weld a recovery hitch in front wheel drive v6 yeah it went quite well but then i got a truck and they still shake their heads

Back when I was 17, my buddy had a Huge 79 Blazer.........................(it had 33" tires on it)    ..................We were up at my cousins cabin in Leota, (add alchohol here) and were playin around in the gravel  pits climbing hills, he asked me if I wanted to drive it up the hill, I did, that was the turning point for me , I was hooked for sure with that one trip up that hill!!.....back in 2000 I got out of it, all  my buddies sold their trucks, I hung onto mine for another year and then let it go...... ..........But a couple years ago I picked up a Blazer and called up an old friend,   Orangecrush, asked him if he knew of some 4x4 parts for sale and he told me about this website called  ................................and Im in it for good now!!!
