I'm glad we got Mikes truck out of there and to his house. I wasn't sure that was going to happen when I finally got down to his truck to help. We pushed/pulled his front end 90 degrees and jacked his rearend over a stump to get him pointed down the hill.
I was relieved/impressed that my 3 could and did tow him off the trails and all the way home. Luckily to get home is mostly downhill.
Glad I could help you get your truck home last night. 
Thanks for saving my ass on that hill.

Re: Disaster on the trail
Before the carnage, we had a fun day of wheeling. Got mostly video, will post it soon.
Then the carnage.
Above is what it looked like when it first happened. Below is after it finally finished destroying itself.
This was my view when I almost tipped over.

Re: Disaster on the trail
I would have loved to see Slates face inside the car!!!
Glad you made it out safely!
Nice t-case Mike
You guys know I will come help anytime. 
When you hung up you said you'd call me right back, and when I didn't hear from you I assumed you were ok. I should know better.....
