    No real reason to unless I link it.....


    Hmmmm......... Lol jk

    But I'll prolly just end up doing the DMZ kit or the giant 64 springs with some 16" bypasses. I'll prolly have LSK do it when I get a bunch if free time.

    Yah. Definitely learned a lot through the fabricators who have worked on my truck like Sick Nicks Fab and LSK Suspension. I love working on cars. Always have and always will. There's something about taking a stock vehicle and making it better that I will always find awesome.

    It was actually the motor :anonymous: but yes. Luckily the distributor caught it before it fell out completely. The new crawl box exposed some engine mount related weaknesses that required some creative fabbing to fix.

    Yeah, getting the motor back up into the engine bay and secured wasn't easy. Couldn't drive it out since the distributor was smashed in the carnage, so had to be towed out thru 7 miles of 4/5 rated trail.. It made for an interesting day for sure. Luckily the distributor was only $125. Just was a lot of work to fix/beef up the components that failed and caused the issue in the first place.

    Lucky you have the skills to do it yourself! Id be screwed. We almost had to tow a jeep out from sheeps bridge yesterday. Ended up only pulling it up the 1 4x4 section and then getting it working to drive the 40miles of dirt road then in the last ~4 miles the steering went out. It was probably lack of maintnence and driver error that caused the issues in the first place not sure though. Made for a fun day :D I'm lucky so far havent had any major issues with my truck yet

    Hell yeah brotha!! Been a while!

    I think I had read a comment on here about that. That would be a long way to tow. I know maintenance has a lot to do with it. Dumbasses behind the wheel in a vehicle that they think is invincible is a bad thing.

    Try 19? (Or somewhere around there) girl who has done tons of bolt on mods but not much else.. she was good at driving stick but didnt know much about off road driving or how to use her 4wd. Yeah no kidding I had a friend once who bashed his oil pan open on a rock in 4peaks. Thats someplace a honda accord should probably never go. It was like a 20 mile tow he lucked out and his insurance covered the tow out

    Sounds to me like she has a lot of experience to gain before she takes her jeep out on trails like that.

    I've never been out to sheeps bridge, how's the ride out there? Heard it's a pretty cool place!

    Sheep's crossing is cool but its a haul from bloody basin or 7 springs back there. The worst part is when you hit the really rocky stuff and get stuck behind someone until they realize you re there.
