So I have not been using the M37 for a while & thought I'd take her out for
a run on the beach. I keep the tires aired down so all that needs done is locking in the hubs & dropping her into 4X4. I'm having a nice ride & next thing I know I'm in soft soft sand & spinning. I rock her back & forth put her into low range & literally push the truck free while she's in first gear. Try doing that with a modern truck. Next thing I know I'm stuck again. This never happens so I check my air & I'm at 10 lbs or less which should be perfect. 10 minutes of screwing around later I think to myself I wonder if my front end is actually getting any power. Well you guessed it I did not lock the front hubs I unlocked them. What an idiot. But I did have a great 40 minutes of uninterupted truck time.
