Cool where did you get your kit from.

 

West Texas Offroad

hydrosteering

 

Cool that's a great price too do you just choose where to install ram.

 

you could mount it in the stock steering stabilizer location, but, its the lowest part of the truck and I always ended up sqwashing it. So I chose a spot higher up on the axle off of the track bar bracket

 

Thursday night, three guys got stuck out on the snomobile trail, so one of my buddies goes out to rescue them and ends up breaking his jeep really bad. He broke a front axleshaft, the rear driveshaft and his winch..this left him with 1 wheel drive..the front diff was welded. I was unable to help out friday night, but they went out again and got 2 of the trucks out, and left my buddies jeep and the worst stuck truck for me on saturday.

First up was getting my pals jeep up a long rocky hill. He was too far down to winch, so i just hooked on and pulled him up....i thought it was going to be easier than it was, but the jeep was usless with just 1 wheel drive



here are the vids so far

I've got a few more vids to upload...will post them soon

 

What a day!

 

Looks like a lot of fun! That is one trick looking Bronco II!

 

Looks like a hell of a day.

I like in the last video how the jeep was just being dragged like nothing by the X.

 

It put up a good fight in the first 3 vids

it wasn't in very good mechanical condition...and it didnt have any tow points

 

Don't get me wrong I watch the other 3 from start to finish. But just seeing that jeep being dragged like a rag doll was priceless.

 

you should enjoy this one too then....

What kind of tool did you use to form the holes in your step/ rock guards??

 

hole saw, then dimple dies

 

Dimple dies, I've never seen those. Well those rock guards are bad *** man, I may build me a set of those..

 

Small tech update

My powersteering cooler (AKA my old tranny cooler) cracked yesterday. I don't know whether it was due to the high pressure pump and cold temperatures -20c, or it was just not strong enough to handle the power steering duties. I didn't think the low pressure power steering fluid had more pressure than the transmission cooling lines, but I could be wrong.





Anyways, I just threw in the stock cooler for now....Im sure it wont get too hot during the winter months
