    I think what Jason was saying is that this thing you just said, literally isn't possible.

    smashed this, broke that, covered it up with tape and paint
    I very very very much agree with you

    But
    My fabricator wants to try
    On his dollar with his material.

    So
    I’ll let him and when it doesn’t work I won’t care too much because the goal is short course links. And as you guys have stated before I don’t have a crap ton of need for traditional canoe style links.
    I think short course set up is just fine for me.

    But if he somehow manages to make it work it would be cool to at least have the option to upgrade later :)

    Why are you calling me out on this? I don't post ig screen shots and if I have they are few and far between

    Edit:

    Never mind, I see I got featured for complaining on their previous post. They featured my brothers buddies truck that I don't even think has an account on here so I called them out on it.

    Thanks. Lol and that top main one was a "bypass" and about a 38" just drop. The main obstacle was super tippy and after actually tipping back in January I'm a little cautious when it comes to that stuff

    Yea man that drop got my attention. Did you hit skids or did you clear that, I know my ass would have had to slide to home plate for that one.

    Drug skids, frame, sliders, rear shackle mounts, and rear bumper lol. Shackles took a beating on that trip and actually tweaked them a degree or two. Planning on redoing my frame plating so it is complete, and redoing my cross brace then add supports to the shackle hangars to help keep them straight

    Ouch man...hopefully the dmz kit isn't too messed up. Im getting my rig back today but def wanted to have it boxed while they had it as I know with my luck it could get messed up pretty quick.

    honestly I'm not even sure if it's the hangars that got tweaked or the frame itself. Either way it's only by a degree or two so not too bad. Gonna try to straighten them when I redo a few things and add some cross supports, but if I can't straighten them I'm really not too worried. Just need to beef things up a little before the next rock crawling trip
