Your lift is not at fault, a larger tire diameter would raise your diff's
higher off the ground.

I agree... Hit the gas, wiggle your steering wheel, and dig your way out.

Lil foward... lil reverse.

If there is a huge pile of mulch there it sounds like its not a designated trail, unless you had permission from the land owner to be there. Illegal wheeling is a detriment to our sport, please keep that in mind and only wheel on designated 4x4 trails for OHV use.

We always trail there but I guess it's not ok anymore. That's to bad because it's walking distance from my front door

When I was running a 2.5" lift with 33's I would hit my center but not get high centered and just make it over crap like that. Now I have 35's and it is like day and night I get over most anything and it also helps that I lifted my front end to a 3" coil. 35's made a huge difference so don't give up on the lift just yet.
