    That's where I got the idea from. My wife's duramax has those on the fox's that came with the cognito lift. The bushings fit super tight in the shock end, 10K miles and zero slop. I'm sure eventually they will fail, but I inspect often enough it's ok. I usually tear the shocks down once a year and at least reseal and change the oil.

    That dude was the leader for most of the day blowing by everyone and everyrhing. He came across the line in first place with only 3 wheels and stuck in 4low. But ultimately got assessed penaltly time for missing parts of the course. Ended up in 7th place officially

    Since he was pointed away from the winch line to start I don't think he had intended on crossing it on purpose. Once the vehicle hopped that way I don't think there was much if anything he could have done to stop from running over it. Though in the other vid out there of this, when they talked with the guy about it he just kind of laughed like it was cool rather than seeming concerned that it could have ended much worse...

    At least Slawson appeared to feel bad about running over that guys rig last year and apologized.

    They obviously cant race in the rocks and don't belong in KOH. They have been a roadblock for two years and counting...

    I got a brand new 2 ton hf aluminum race jack with dmz skid n bed mount I wanna sell or trade for the 1.5. Only reason is cuz I have no space for it and the spot I thought it would fit, in my new tool chest, well...it won't fit by just a cpl inches! :facepalm:

    I wanted the 2 ton cuz never know when someone with a heavier setup needs a hand or my future tow rig
