    Mostly likely.
    I've had two lower shock mount bushings disappear on me. The fist one ARB sent for free. This 2nd one is $28 with shipping.
    I remember hearing some where on TW you should torque the nut on the ground or something. Otherwise good bye bushing.

    I'm probably going to replace the shock and coil next year with something nice. These have done well and are still doing well for having almost 70,000 miles of abuse on them.

    People I used to ride mountain bikes with would do what we called the "zero gear challenge".

    You put your bike into the lowest gear and race. It's all about who can spin at the highest RPMs.

    You just gotta pedal in circles and have decent form.
    Otherwise when you get up over 100 rpms you start bouncing.
    If you're smooth with good form you can spin at 150 rpms for a little bit.
    Apparently unicyclers can hit 200. wtf?

    It was posted yesterday...each of those bikes is probably $25k. Probably both repairable. I'd ballpark it at about 8-10k apiece.

    He was piss rev'ing it. I'm guessing is foot slipped off the clutch and he just kept going. Also guessing he was not paying attention...

    Maybe. But the way he kept pushing sort of seemed like panic.

    Yep. You can hear the tires chirping while pushing Jeep. Unless it was intentional.

    Forgot to put this up. Host at Highland Lakes campground is trying to sell this rig. If I had the money I would. I think it was $6500. But negotiable.

    That was a laughable response, all emotion no logic - sooooo focused in a high-adrenaline situation /s

    Disagree. The way cops are being treated these days, it's a natural response. And that could one day save his life.

    If I was in that cop's position and was parked at light and all of sudden you get hit, first thing comes to my mind would be someone did that on purpose. I don't think that cop did anything wrong.

    Edit: What Don said.
