    Well actually there was a bump on the other side of the puddle and sand that I was attempting to get up...

    ...unfortunately I sank in said puddle and sand prior to conquering the bump!

    But someone had to try it!

    Seriously?! Those trails look terrifying...the rocks are taller than the skirts of my VX! I might scratch her! O noes!!! Maybe I should get a lift before I head to Moab...but I don't know anything about lifts yet, shoot! I need to research mods before I do them...much to think about.

    ...and that banana suit is fking awesome!

    Trust me, it is all about the right line. With a good spotter you will have no problems. I will have you crawling over boulders like a pro.

    In all fairness though Billy, sometimes no line can overcome gravity....this is the one that flattened my bull bar tubing and scratched the rear cladding coming out of it...two years in a row.....but I'm ready for her this year...no bull bar, and a superbumper on the back! Seriously MeowMix, the pic doesn't do it justice...full brakes applied and you still skid down this hill, and plow into the rock, it's awesome! This was my first year, all stock. Now was this on Hell's Revenge or Fins & Things?

    Really? You just have spare springs laying around? I thought there was more to lifting than springs. I'm used to lowering...know all about it. Though when it comes to 4WD vehicles, I'm just plain dumb. I know zero about lifting...but I trust you know what's what, lol. I'm in so long as my short little butt can still hop up into my seat I'll PM you for the details. Oh and you'd better believe I'll be making some cocktails...so be ready to do exactly what's stated above.

    ...and Sue, that picture is unnerving. I'll probably have nightmares tonight, lol. I think I'll bypass that rock hill thing thanks.

    I am surprised no one else has warned Meowmix yet......DO NOT FOLLOW A CERTAIN KAISER VX WITH A MISSING SIDE BAR AND A ROOF RACK......I REPEAT...DO NOT take ANY lines he takes........
    Ask forgiveness, not permission.
