    No the video does a pretty good job showing how simple it looked and then the nose burying. You can see the pressure wave run the whole length of the hole and then return. It also shows the angle pretty well when I reached in and removed it and then you can see me standing on the door frame with the water covering the driver door. What sucked was that I forgot about holding the gopro while you were getting pulled out, so I mainly got the top of the truck except at the very end of the video.

    It still has 30 minutes to upload to youtube. Not sure what I will be doing in 30 minutes, so until I post the link in here, you can use my user page to find it. http://www.youtube.com/user/bcroadr

    Edit: I haven't even watched any of the other video yet. It will probably be a few days before I get it uploaded.

    I knew I would get hammered for that quote. And that was supposed to be better on the fun factor.

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    Haha, I was thinking left to bridge the ruts were already there.

    It hasn't been too bad yet. I have all but the carpet pulled out right now. Doors cleaned out already. Just gotta head into town to get the right torx sockets to pull the seatbelts. And I'll be home stretch on cleaning interior... Then it's on to the engine bay....

    It actually started up this morning.Im not going to worry about getting it back up running quite yet. I wanted to get the interior done since it had the potential to rust and mold

    :woot:

    Let's quote Paul for a minute.. The whole time Paul was building his JEEP the plans consisted of crawling capable but no bogging! He kept preaching how mud kills and I totally agreed with him in every way! I HATE mud! So we were telling each other stay away from the mud holes and just go through it if you have to.. 2 hours in to riding Paul and his dad find a figure 8 sloppy mud area.. all you hear "RUUUUUNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDAAAAAAA DAAA DAAA DAAA" Mud flying every where and Paul's doing donuts! Funniest most contagious thing ever! Then another Hour and a half rolled by and the video happened! LOL! The moral of this story is.. If you say stay away from mud holes at the beginning just know that the time you say "fuck it" it will most likely screw you over! He let his gard down and this happened!

    Good news is... Everything is fine and I think Paul and I are gonna give it an over haul next weekend!

    So where are the rest of the pics?

    LOL! but it makes for a more dramatic stock pic.. LOL!

    Yes and no.. I spent all the money yes... This is/was my dads and we split the cost of the transmission rebuild with the agreement that I get to mod and wheel it as long as he gets to keep it in his name so he can write it off on his farm. LOL!

    WINNING!!

    True story!
