We round off the year with a trip to Johnson Valley, CA. One of the greatest off road destinations in the country! With a small group we decided to take on the Sledgehammer trail, an extreme canyon crawl featured in the famous King of the Hammers race.

Its crazy to think that Sledge Hammer was originally built with Jeeps on 35s by Victor Valley 4 Wheelers

We just going to ignore him grabbing the winch cable under load? 🤣 I'm glad it was a reminder with no injuries.

*Thankfully* no injury to report, he was moving the sleeve and the opposite side snapped. The message is the same, be nowhere near a winch cable under load.

Looks like the soft shackle failed. I'm gonna say the spot on the bumper had a sharp edge because it was designed for a d ring. Turned that big piece of aluminum into death 😳

24:02 Man that was a scary moment. One reason I’m wanting to get rid of all metal in my winch line.

Ya me too 1/2 rope with a soft shackle no hook.

@James Q y YA just goes to show those rope snap back too. That would rock you too. Cable rips you on half.

Not a fan of soft shackles except for joining straps or maybe change of direction. Prefer to use quality hard shackles when attaching to bumpers or tree straps. The winch cable will break first.

Trail Reaper, what radiator are you using and have you had any problems? If so what do you recommend? Thanks

@squeakin3 Жыл бұрын

I’d be careful holding the roll cage like that. In a rollover the windshield frame can crush your hand between the windshield frame and cage. Weld a handle there if you like your hand there

i wish they made that tire in a 40 in a 18 inch rim diameter i have 35s and love them but not a lot of manufacturers make a 40 in a 18 actually none do only a 38 or a 41 and the only 41 is a iroc i had a set of 39 inch irocs before no thank you on the 41s im basically stuck with a 38
