    Damn next time you reboot which will be soon with those tails hanging out of the hose clamps. Go get the correct clamps and the tool to put them on. If you lived closer I'd let you borrow mine and give you a tutorial on how to use it. Those clamps bother my OCD really bad!

    Nah, it’ll be fine! It’s been fine for a few thousand miles so far and plenty of wheeling trips.

    Wider body, about 3 or 4 feet long. Meant for going around duct work. It may not work but who knows. The took tightens it really well.

    I want to say they use something similar on line crews. A guy that I met gave me a bunch of some like that and he worked on a line crew. They make good wire snakes for short runs in the dash and through the firewall as well. I hate using a metal snake.

    You’re saying that hose clamps are superior for CV boots, right? :stirthepot:

    I suppose they could be used as hose clamps but they are narrower and fit into the channel used for CV boots and yes they are far superior to the worm style clamp you are running especially the second one because you can really clamp down on that one. :thumbsup:

    This particular lake we found at the start of the day got very lost and came back to it at the end of the day we enede up near the mountains in the background then the roads degraded from shelf roads to fuck this shit.

    Local company Cruisin Offroad. They made my bumpers and sliders all beyond beefy. These particular bumpers are one offs to accommodate the 1" BL.. I'm assuming I'll be turning the rear into a HC after Rubicon not sure how my box has survived untouched this long

    Definitely looks like a great time for sure. I've always enjoyed the outdoors. Being able to enjoy a day off roading then chilling near a lake like that with some friends........it don't get no better than that :thumbsup:
