Title: 4-wheeling warning (photo)...
Post by Hirvimaki on Aug 6th, 2004, 10:50am
Just FYI to anyone who 4-wheels... This is what happens when you have your 35's aried down to 10 psi and try to pull a donut in the parking lot...

Happily neither driver nor passenger were hurt, except for pride.  The funniest part is that his wife was driving Golden Spike (a trail in Moab, Utah) all day, did beautifully...and then he took over the wheel in the parking lot at the air-down point and it took all of 10 seconds to do this.

I'm happy to say my TJ is still upright.

PS: The automatic lights on Grand's are awesome! Apparently they turn on when you flip! LOL!

And I've been making that comment to his face for the last month and a half...  Driving to Moab in a tough Grand like that and returning in a rental Neon is PRICELESS!

And right in front of that muffler is the catalytic converter, just like the one I had to replace on my ZJ a few weeks ago.

Something I learned on the net... best tool for removing exhaust components is a Dremel with a cutting wheel.  That little thing is amazing.  I have a stack of cutting wheels... use them for everything.

You can get that Dremel -anywhere- up in there.
I did not bust a knuckle until I had to drop the rest of the muffler/tailpipe to put the new cat in place.

Phucking o2 sensor would not come out of the old cat.  Grrr.  An extra $80 for that.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! What an asshat... And no, I wouldn't be caught dead in anything but a Wrangler, and I don't do dumb shit like pulling donuts and trying to act like a ricer. This guy got what he deserved.  ::)  [smiley=ohjez.gif]

Sorry to hear about your O2 sensor, Rock. I agree: Dremel is one of those indispensable shop tools. It beats the snot out of a hacksaw! LOL

Now, now, Jeep... He is a very nice guy and a very capable 4-wheeler... But a second of stupidity will follow you forever... He is now the very proud owner of the coveted Cow Bell, which he must wear on his vehicle - whenever it is running again! :)

I agree with you about Wranglers...

Buddy of mine. His poor Jeep got tired and laid down for a little nap: ;;D
