I have a better video of me getting out that my cousin just sent me, but there is some cursing and I dont know what to use to edit the sound out? If any one has any simple video editing tricks I can try to get a longer video up that shows some more of the landscape and what I was dealing with.

Ok found a free editing trial software. Didnt have a "beep" noise so I just threw a second of music in there.
Getting Out
If anyone can guess the song from that clip I owe you a beer!!! That is if you are old enough of course.

I think there are other mfgrs out there for your IFS rig but, I am really partial to Bud Built products. I've dropped off a rock ledge (almost 5 feet-no exaggeration), onto my Bud Built crossmember (never hit the front skid) teetered like a seesaw and had to be pulled off. No damage to the skids whatsoever and of course no damage to the truck. I think Bud sells the whole belly skid at a discount. You can get it for 400 bucks or right around there.

Armor up!

BTW--when I got pulled off, my rear bumper took a huge hit. I had to pull it off and replace the mounting bolts when I got home. Wished Bud made bumpers. :-)
