    Billy, Jack, I am so down for Metal Masher since I broke last time I was on it. It was my first time out with my green Jeep and I tried to scale a wall with an undercut. Found out the rear springs are way too stiff and that a 1310 u-joint is way too small for a D60 and 37"s. After a few attempts the last one stretched the rear axle yoke straps out. I fixed it best I could but broke a newly weakened strap trying the next wall so had to turn around. Redemption! Although I probably won't attempt Widowmaker more than once

    ya, jo and i both got a little ways up rock chucker. then Jo tried widowmaker, but we found his broken shock half way up and stopped him.

    i'd like to try both in the runner, i dunno if its possible without getting my rear bumper changed though. (my *** drags on everything)
