But no knock on zj's, my buddy has one. You know how nice it is to rock crawl with leather, a/c, moonroof, a v8, and 38" Baja claws! I'd like to have one.

You just need to be smart about the throttle. My skinny pedal gets stuck to the wood when im wheeling all the time. Just dont do it when your bound up on something or really flexed. I have fun and dont break my junk very often.

Or keep the pedal to the floor when it starts bouncing, bad things happen

Well I was 16, should start by saying that. I had a 69 Ford with 39.5 boggers, no ps, and a granny lo 3 speed. So I thought it was time to go out drift busting on a state route near my that was notorious for drifting shut. It sat on about 20" of lift, and i came over a hill and buried it up too the cab on the other side in some snow. No one to winch to or pull me out so i hammered it in 2nd and in a matter of seconds the front shaft looked like a pretzel and the rear joint on the rear exploded. It was about 4 degree and a 2 mile walk. I would have rather walked than call dad. Worst part is I had to leave my truck on a state route and hope it was ok. He guy cleaning the road with the grader in the morning knew my grandpa and pulled it home. Pride shot to hell. It was the most bad *** truck at the highschool and its rep was tarnished! Lol. Good thing that was about 15 years ago!
