I got a couple.
Crazy linked truggy that was going over everything without breaking a sweat.
Cameoman53 gettin' over the big rock pile like a freakin' boss.
And a shameless poser IFS "flex" pic
That's all I really have other than a shameful one I was asked not to post . My cameraman decided to drink all night the night before and bailed on me . Cameoman53 should have some good ones coming.

One of my rig getting tipsy lol and the wife looking a little nervous! lol!
annnnnd the worst of the body damage from me backing into a tree....

Even though I didn't go on the trail I had a blast watching everyone else run. It was Truely a great experience to meet fellow yotatech guys and see what an official trail looks like in person. It got me thinking about linking my rig. I think I'm gonna do it. I started taking measurements yesterday. I have been inspired.

2 T-cases
3 link front
4 link rear
Sounds good to me ! Just plan on hauling it around on a trailer, I don't think you can really drive a linked rig on the street. All that flex turns in to lots of body roll. If you need a hand I can weld.
I had been kicking around the idea of a SAS for a while, now it's been moved much higher on the list of things to do...along with a locker...and new bumpers...and a winch...and 4.7:1 low range...damn, this is gonna get expensive !

It really depends on the geometry of the links. If you think about it jeep JK's are basically a factory linked rig. That is why they flex so well from the showroom. Also FJ-80's are linked. You just need to make sure that the link angles are right and have anti-sway bars.

That's true. I hear "I'm gonna link my rig" and I automatically picture a crazy, rock hungry, not screwing around kind of setup. Maybe my wild childhood imagination isn't quite as far gone as I think .
