Nope. Although I have a feeling I could make it.

When you're flexing out the rear like that do you have your swaybar removed? I recently went up to deer springs and was kinda disappointed in my 8 wraps flexiness.

I had both sway bars hooked up for this one. My ideal setup is the front unhooked, and move the front end links to the back. I have 650 lb coils on the front of mine though, so it's really not too bad with no sway bar.

:boxing: ha ha had to one up him huh???

Looks like you boys had a fun time for sure. So now you should come to Moab next year and have a real blast

I would love to make it to Moab one of these days!

And I figured he needed some more motivation to get a locker! The only reason I was able to do it in 2wd was because of the locker and the 2wd low mod haha.

I tried telling Connor that I give it a generous amount of gas when I hit the bottom of that rut to keep the back end down, but he didn't believe me, and ended up like that ^ haha. I wish we would've gotten a picture of how high that drivers side rear tire was off the ground.

I need to try it again, this time with lots of gas...

Here's a short visual summary of me and my friends last deer springs trip.

This is me and my friends comanche parked on the other side of that rusted truck.

Hooking up my friends truck to try and pull the old rusty one.

Of course the $10 tow strap broke

Coming up the hill

I drove up on a rock with rear swaybars disconnected this time!

My friend then felt the need to one-up me on a bigger one after this and flexed his solid front axle :sobbing:

He even got some nice rock rash

Then my other friend was ghost riding his whip hahaha and drove into a ditch (in 4low luckily, so it was super slow)

Finally made it to the watertower and my friends decided to attempt going up the crazy left trail.

This was about as far as we made it. Nissan gave it a go, but started to run hot because of a coolant leak. Then it started leaking gas and making a strange hissing noise (maybe a vac leak?), so we called it a day and headed on home.
