Cool Video from yesterday & misc photos

I kinda like this video... Too bad I didn't make it.. it is a pain to work that hill with out lockers (hense "Pain Hill") You have to come right out of the river, up a 3' or so very steep bank covered in slick mud.. Oh, and you have to bang left to clear a tree.. Well, I almost had it, but looking at the video a few times, I can see my mistake.. I bounced with the wheel turned too far to the left and it kicked me into that tree on the left.. Glad I had sliders.. All I got is a fairly good, yet mostly still buffable scuff on my door from that little tree I tried to push off my door... (Yea, stupid move.. amazing no matter how much you know not to do that, you still do...)

This is the video I already posted yesterday in the puddle..

And just a couple posur "flex" shots on a rock.. I was playing with the sway bar links and seeing how they flexed out.. I was quite happy...



hee hee, can you tell we didn't bother to air down??


This is Allen's truck... He was wheeling with me yesterday..
I love those 34 X 9.5's

Nice pics.

I wish I had someplace like that to wheel around here.

I'm jealous.

Looks like some fun, those are pretty crazy tires on that pickup too, I don't think I've ever seen 34's that thin.

Yea, I know... I could not believe I did it either.. But, I think it was enough to keep the damage to pretty much nill after a little buffing to get the tree mark off my doors

Did you see where I went wrong?? Right at the top of the hill, the bump kicked my wheels to the left.. Oh well, I know the line now..
