Mach 4's and a Smarty eat up Moab!
Poison Spider Mesa (4), Hell's Revenge (4), Fins and Things (3.5) and Steel Bender (3.5) were the trails that I ran. The ol' Dodge did great, a locker would have been nice but the suspension articulated so well that I did everything that I wanted. Not to mention that I hand calc'ed just over 22mpg driving home (Smarty set on #7)....
Here is a link that should take you to some photos of the trip. Just click on the photo to view.

I was the only one wheelen' the diesel, people thought I was crazy, kept saying I was going to mess up my truck really bad. Then after I would drive through a line, they would pat me on the back and say that should have been a Dodge advertisement.
FE clutch was great, I just stuck it in 1st and poked along.
Didn't really need the lift for these trails...but would be nice for harder trails...

Very cool pictures. Looks like you had good time. I would love to go wheeling out at a place like that. I've grown out of the whole mud bogging thing, but I love playing on rocks and in ditches.

"Couldn't see myself doing that with my truck to scared to mess it up lol"
Well, going slow and spotting your line is key. It is amazing what these trucks will do when drived correctly...
