"They said that I must be part Mexican because of the way I fix my car. That's a compliment, right?"... LMAO

The story from YT postings:
I'm going out on a limb and saying you did not make it up that.
hahaha! Go ahead and tell them the story Anthony...
Actually I did.

I was wheeling with a bunch of guys all SFA and Locked Front and Rear on nothing smaller than 36's. I told everyone to step aside and I would show them how NOT to make it. To my suprise I hit the perfect line and walked right up it. It was after I made it to the top that my ring gear gave way (weird I know). But the ring gear had some rust between the teeth that gave way so it all made since. Either way next trip to Disney I'll get video so I have better proof.

Reminds me of a time at HF. There is a really nasty ledge that some guys on 40's where hammering on.

Hard to tell but this is nasty.. super loose with a large ledge at the top.

My buddy in his IFS (locker F&R) first gen on 33" Swampers just walked up it like nothing. He just stuck the driver tire into the side and up it went. Nobody thought he'd make it.

Two things...

Did they cut out those trees and stuff just to film? In CA you'd have to have a study of the tse se fly, pay off a few unions and then it might be able to use a set of siccors on 10% of the foliage!

Sean, since you now have Clyde, when was the last time you did something like that?

People with 40+ inch tall tires just ripped out the brush. Over the past year it was removed.

Well I went out there for the Big Redneck Wedding and did some wheeling, got plenty of scratches but nothing like that in the picture. I even did a little night wheeling.

I really need to get a trailer for Clyde. He just sits in the garage while I figure out what I want to do with it. Part of me is like f*ck it, just install Marlins leafs and the other part is "No way, go links"... then there is the part that says wheel it as it is and get dual cases.. and finally the voice that says go Tons! Anyhow, I need a trailer but I'm too cheap to go buy a new one. :)

I hear you! That's one more reason we need that gated community with the communal toys and trailers!!! :) Then once you get the trailer you'll want the tow vehicle! :D

One of my problems is that a lot of people drop out of this crack addition after they realize how much money gets poured in. Or other guys that have 'upgraded' to tow only rigs that want to do Hammers or the equivalent and don't mind a flop or two. I do enjoy wheeling my black school bus but many just drop out!

Looks like the tire pressure is pretty high in those shots...

That's about 16 PSI. I have a set of Stauns set to 16 and that's what u use to air down... Then I check them of course.

I was on there site yesterday and it doesn't look like they sell leaf springs anymore?
Fawk!!
