So driving to work and found a pile of rocks decided to try and climb it since I have yet to try and climb something in my 5 speed.......Did not turn out as planned I got half way up and started spinning tires shooting rocks every where good times.....

you couldnt make it up because it was too loose, the weight of the front end was plowing it.

the lights you have under your bumper, i hope you don't want them there because they won't be there for long! put them on top and your set.

since its the 5 speed, youve got 3.07 gears stock, if you havent changed them you have next to no torque. i just got new gears

Hahaha it was horrible sitting there flinging rocks in the middle of rush hour trying to get it up, just straight embarrassing. Do you have 4.56 gears and yeah I am moving lights not sure why PO put them there.
