Quick sand is no fun Pics inside

[k5noob]

So me and 2 of my buddys were out wheeling and I was just rolling along and all the sudden within 5 Sec. my blazer was stuck up to the doors where you could not open them. after trying to pull it with two trucks and the running 50 feet of chains and straps and it still would not come out. So I had to leave it tell monday 5-26-09 wet sand is about the worst thing to get stuck in we worked on it tell around 1 in the morn when it came out. I just want to thank all my friends that helped save it since I was thinking it was lost.

[chevyuser74]

quite the gf u got there, most i know wouldnt hop under the hood like that, why'd ya take the carb out of there?

 

[k5noob]

Ya that is true. sand is was so heavy you could not just pull it back out. and my next step after I get it back on the road is bumpers with some solid points.

well the thing is I had to leave it there for a day so I took it off to keep people from takin free parts off it so i took my c.b radio distributor plug wires

I had a box in the very back with 3 cans of brake clean brake fluid and some rags in it and they took that in just one day so i took everything off I could.

The area that I was takes about a hour to get to.

When you were pulling it out, why was everybody in the engine bay? Glad you got it out. Been there, done that.

Yea you definitely had the mire factor going against you! A pull of 300% of LW will be required if the truck is stuck to the frame..
