94bronc.....thanks for the offer.
But, I did get the electronics figured out.
I have an Cherokee I use mostly offroad.
I put in a Painless remote 7-circuit fuse panel.

Cliffs off-road park is in Marseilles, Illinois.
they have too much mud.

I got a buddy 8-9 miles away that has a farm, we have a special area just for it. I haven't had my truck out there in a while since it seems I break something everytime I get going out there. But yeah we got a place. Last year his Dad got stuck in his 09 F350 turbo diesel on 38's lol Jon Deere got that one out though.

yeah i'm looking for somewhere i can just have some fun. my bronco isn't built or anything so paying for some trails just seems like i'd be wasting my money. up in alaska there used to be a spot of about 10 acres we'd mud, blaze our own trails if we wanted, plenty of mud, muskeg, and river to cross. hell my buddy had a '42 cheby wrecker and we was recoving some idiots truck off the side of a mountain, i almost flipped my bronco because we needed more weight on the wrecker to keep it from slidding. lol anyway...yeah if you dont get stuck you aint muddin' right

that the place I named...they're in Marseilles.
I been there twice with my Jeep..it is a great place for trails.
The probem I had was that the mud was too slimy..you slip and slide around all day...guaranteed body damage.
you are falling on your *** all day and winching all day long.
