I hope so but am bringing an extra along next weekend :)

No it's actually a prototype of the H2 with 4-wheel steer setting up to do an in place spin, sort of like the Jeep Hurricane concept.

No, you are not right.

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

It's obviously a chop.

Yep, I heard him beg in the video. If you listen real hard, it's pretty evident



edit: Damn, he deleted his post

looks like the original was a prius

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

Are you bringing and extra set of diffs, too?;)

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

h2 is a too expensive truck to have tie rods braking. should have been built better.;)

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

the metal shouldn't bend when you crash either

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

actually it should, its called a crumple zone. It is designed to absorbe the energy of the impact by incresing the time it takes for the vehicle(s) to stop. It is a very good design choice, saves many lives.

hmmm....... funny thing. people say the same thing about the tie rods. They break, like a fuse, to lessen the damage to more vital parts.

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

good point! didnt think of that, guess it is better for the tie rod to break than sum else.

Or when a door rubs up against a root :eek: :p

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

That was supposed to be a joke, wasn't it?;)

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

No

but what the heck is Newbie talking about.

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

I'll see if I can get a pic of said root next weekend :p

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

damn, next weekend... it's that soon

I don't think I can swing that. I'm missing all sorts of rides. My local guys are at Morris Mountain this weekend and I decided not to do it.

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

I know it's a repost, But I'm glad. It's the first I've seen of it. To me it just serves as a reminder not to gas is to hard going through the rock gardens.

Re: snapping tie rod - video

Re: snapping tie rod - video
 

Yeah, coming fast but not fast enough. That sucks if you can't make it but there is always next time. What are you doing to your truck?
