Damn, that's a lot of mud. That should be lots of fun to clean up to put the SFD in. I have a question about your SFD, who's makin it for ya and if you don't mind me asking, how much was it? I would love to get a SFD, if the price is right.

Yea it took me $20 and a pressure washer to clean it at the local car wash.... I have a custom fab offroad shop who is local to my area and he is doing the SFD for $400 to make with all the brackets and such. Every shop is different and I could have him make you one but there is alot more to it than just making the brackets to put on., and it depends on how much of a SFD you are putting on. I am doing a 4" SFD and that is including all the brackets such as the SFD brackets, motor mount spacers, longer steering linkage, panhard bar drop bracket; getting custom drive shaft made and have to get longer brake lines front and rear, custom ordered rear coil springs, building a 4 link out of 4140 with flex joints.... It takes a lot of work and planning but I could help you plan it out and could possibly get it built for you and you pay S&H along with the cost of the lift... I am paying a total of around $900+- for everything.

just a question, but how dirty is your interior floor after you get outside of the car in that mud and go back in with the mud on your shoes.

That's why you get all weather rubber mats.

Exactly, I have the thick rubber mats sold up here in the NE meant for snow so they work awsome and I usually kick off as much as I can before I get in.
