x vs. ranger

[storlied]

Hey, I play with my DD. You gotta pay to play though.. it's part of the game. It's fun and you learn. Anyways... if you're gonna do it.. Be smart and safe about it. Keep people at a distance, don't use a chain... don't use your bumper.. frame frame frame.

 

[storlied]

And you probably shouldn't do it if the maintenance isn't top notch.. if they're run down and it's all you got and you can't afford to do mods or repairs then maybe you shouldn't.. but I know you probably will.. haha

 

[colintrax]

This isn't really a question. If you lose it's because you didn't know what you're doing.
I also wouldn't suggest it, there WILL BE damage without a hitch. And even still you never know, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSTpJXSkLEU&feature=share

wow , were not in the diesel forums , why would this even be tried with 2 mostly stock trucks , somebody's u joints and trans is going to say sorry but i quit lol

 

[swshawaii]

Consensus says, arm wrestle instead!!! LOL

 

[storlied]

Lmao, I love this video. But anyone who knows anything knows exactly what happened to that crappy built chevy. Look, hook to the frame and you'll be okay. Just be Aware that doing this, specially on dry ground will put a LOT of stress on just about everything. Same goes for jumping for example... are you, and/or is your truck ready to handle such abuse? Can you deal with what Could happen? If you wanna do this so badly, maybe go get on some dirt???... It's less stress. I usually see ujoints breaking on dry tug or wars... or worse....

this sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. two things are the likely outcome. either we are about to have a bunch of new posts on this forum about how to fix a bunch of things, or a couple of guys are going to end up on one of those "worlds stupidest" shows on tru tv. no offense.

 

[FORD SUV GUY]

LMAO! That video link is awesome! "fixed or repaired daily" huh???? Ask the owner of that chevy about THAT! Love my Fords...

Oh, and be sure to watch out for Hydrolock when mudding. I hear it can ruin your super 4x4 adventure weekend in the blink of an eye.

 

[storlied]

Don't be stupid. Simply do not use your bumper. That's the main problem here, aside from the stress on things. DO NOT USE YOUR BUMPER!

Even if you don't give a crap about your bumper, someone can get hurt or killed if it lets go.

I once saw, on a sandbar, a soccer Mom's (street tires) 1st Gen Explorer snap a custom CJ-5 (full off-road kit) like a twig. We were all pretty surprised.
