good job man! i like the fact that there is no doubler on that thing ha ha
But Chandler is on 37s and is like a foot or more longer...besides, it was mysteriously before anyone was there


Of course ANY rig getting up that thing unassisted is nothing to scoff at.

hey i'm not knocking it, i can't make eagles nest. i've givin it hell many times but lack the clearance, which don't hurt my feelings cause i'd rather stay low that go higher just to make one obstacle that i really don't care if i make or not. i think its funner to drive back down the trail

oh and many were there, most were from NAXJA but there was another YJ there before us that they all had cameras and a video camera, need to find proof for chandler lol

oh and tristins sort of maybe not buddy in the stock taco seen it too

H.D. Engineering

also Liquid Iron makes sliders to eliminate shackles altogether... I have no idea on how well these work, just throwing them out there lol

yeah it works out pretty well!

haha, IDK if you Buddy is the right term

Ever see a Vehicle with 35's make "the nest so easy?" damn.... (had me a little bummed, but I don't have the belly clearance.. that is why another 2" is needed )

Video Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4TuhiN1DBw
The slide ones seams like a shot in the dark and the price is a Little high but the way I read seams like you still use the shackle just off what they called it shackle slider. I like how the other one is 1/4 inch too and the price is the same as the r/c one. Thanks for the link

hmm, I would love it if you could come! Sundays are hard to get as they are the only guarantied day I have off work with the wife... but depending on hydraulic assist and gear box, as well as my motor parts arriving it could be possible... I'll let you know.

The reason it was mysteriously before anyone was there, is the best reason that it proves I made it the way it is told. I normally take my time finding the line and preparing before I hit it hard. I was still in both case low from climbing the under cut. And when it started climbing I kept at it till I thought it would actually stop, but it just kept climbing. It was under a minute from when the front tires got up, till I was all the way up. I was actually mad that it was easy this time. Lol
