Title: Re: Anyone care to guess... Post by Frank_W on Apr 8th, 2005, 10:00am Looks like an improvised fix on the trail so your rig can limp its way back to camp, after some carnage on a mean ol' rock. [smiley=laugh.gif] Poor Jeep... 8) |

LOL! You are on the right track, Frank. Not a fix for a break though... Think suspension travel and that horrible tippy feeling going up an eight-foot waterfall... Hirvimaki-Isi |

Title: Re: Anyone care to guess... Post by Frank_W on Apr 8th, 2005, 10:34am Yikes!! Waterfalls are fun! "The pucker meter is pegged!!" ;;D (Chains are dangerous, though. Be careful using them on the trail! Ditto for those horrid tow straps with steel hooks at the ends!) |

See, I knew you'd catch on... There's too much travel in the suspension in the front going over the big stuff... This limits the travel and is adjustable. How about a look at the outside? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v674/de_profundis/4CH/211aaa68.jpg Tow straps with hooks are evil. Hirvimaki-Isi |

Title: Re: Anyone care to guess... Post by Frank_W on Apr 8th, 2005, 10:58am Damn! That thing is BAD ASS!! Last summer, a wheeler in one of our local clubs lost his life when the hook on a towstrap sprang loose and came back through the windshield. I doubt if he felt a thing, it happened so fast.... :'( |

Yep. You aren't allowed to ride in our club if you have the straps with metal hooks. Hirvimaki-Isi |

Title: Re: Anyone care to guess... Post by Frank_W on Apr 8th, 2005, 12:48pm Ditto. No hooks. I stand well clear when people are winching, too. Dangerous stuff. When are you going with beadlocks? |

Title: Re: Anyone care to guess... Post by Gator on Apr 8th, 2005, 3:33pm Back in the days of real muscle cars, I saw a few engines chained down. You could almost see the cars' frames twisting when the engines revved up. I've seen a normal drive shaft twisted into a candy cane by a monster engine. |
