Long travel is just built better and beefer. If I'm in the air I wanna feel somewhat safe. It's like jumping a fabtech spindle or jumping a camburg spindle.

done a few little baby jumps STOCK. it's still a kick in the pants. Also landed so hard on my truck with just spindles it lifted off the ground on the jounce lol (and if i'm bull-s*itting then ill go straight to hell!) It'll take more than you think!

this was the first, smallest jump of the bunch. the others were like 3 in a row in castaic that we mobbed through. Oh, then i drove it 250miles to vegas from castaic.

I've jumped it already, don't get me wrong, but it's not something I like doing daily. I'm already pushing my spindle stresswise with the 35's, I don't need to stress it out more.

prolly gives you a nice view out of the corner of your eye if your catchin my subtle drift.

tatas?

Negative. Why would you smash through sharp rocks? Unless your an idiot...I was trying to climb a hill actually, it was pretty rocky and steep. I made it half way up and lost my momentum and keep trying to slowly grab and turns out if was cutting up my tires lol. Oh well, they are almost done anyway, I need new ones.

I think I got some videos of that hill I climbed lemme check... I didn't make it up the first time, but the second time I got up there. We recorded my victory lap but I don't know if my GF hit the record button on the camera :(

Nothing special here, first video is me just going down some road in the middle of no where.
Second video is me trying to climb the hill the first time.
Made it up the second time but GF forgot to hit record on the camera lol.
