I went mudding yesterday and got a little to deep. (Got stuck). I was only up to about half of my rim. I was doing everything i could to get out. I tried flat rocks under the tires and all of that and it didn't work. I had to get winched out and when i first was driving out on the road there was a ton of wobble i guess from all the mud in the tires. Now there is no mud but i have some consistent bumping at high speeds. Any ideas?

Might have knocked the front end out of alignment.
Might have a rock or mud in a wheel.
Might have bent a wheel.

Too many variables and not enough details from you to figure it out.

Could also be some mud on the driveshaft(s) throwing it out of balance. Or you could've knocked a weight off of the wheel when you swamped her.
