Well, you tried to winch me down the hill, but my truck was so stuck it just drug you up the hill.


Right in front of all those beer drinking Jeepers. [emoji481]

 

[H3slate]

I was just glad your turd was there to pull my turd up that hill. Oh, is that a recon winch you have?

 

[Hummjay]

LMAO!! Oh boy, this is getting really good! Hmm. I wonder if there's any evidence floating around somewhere that could solve this mystery... :corn:

 

[Scarsman]

Might start checking jeep forums. I'm sure there's video and pics there!

 

[cbetts]

Looks like a great day! I bet dancing with that clutch pedal was a blast on the hills!

It is always fun, as you know!

Except for the part where I didn't make it up the obstacle. :emb:

Wasn't a clutch issue though, wheelbase and tire issue.

I didn't see any cameras, just Coors Light cans. We should invent a beer can with a built in camera!! :horns:

I found some evidence

That is a cool pic!

It sums up scarsman and my relationship. He is always there to help me out.

There is a good amount of editing to do. The videos looked good, I was glad I got to see your truck make it up the obstacle. I missed it in person while spotting hummjay.

 

[Scarsman]

It's being worked on!

The company that made my double jerry can holder re-posted a picture that I (stole) and posted onto instagram from this thread.

Doing what I can to spead the H40 word!!

 

[Scarsman]

Ok, here are some videos. There are more I'll add later. My son is still working on them. These are just rough edited to get rid of waste. No music or anything fancy. Just raw video!

Me showing why I REALLY need a front locker! Kind of long, you may want to skip through most of it.

Me showing what happens when I need a front locker and don't have one:

[RamRod]

Videos look great! To bad we don't have any video of that down hill rock section!! I almost had to put on a new pair off clean shorts

 

[Scarsman]

That one is coming. [emoji6]

 

[Polar Bear]

Two quick things.

1. If you had maybe tried backing around I think you would have easily made it! That is what you see loads of Jeep JK guys do!

2. Get an Eaton E-locker for your front diff instead of the ARB...just as strong but no air leaks!!!

Just my 2 cents!

Btw, the trail area looks absolutely stellar! Wish I was closer!

 

[taylorblake831]

Any update on that video rob?! I'm dying to see me getting up the hill on the "first timer" trail

Probably the most sarcastic name of a trail they have there lol


-TEXAS FOREVER-

 

[Scarsman]

My son had been working on the editing, and he's almost done. Should be up soon!

 

[Scarsman]

Ok, sorry for the long delay! Here at last are the videos. This was a small rock area at the end of the trail.

EDIT: Well, for some reason the "insert video" function is not working, so all I can do is links right now. I'll fix it when I figure out what's wrong.

I'll have a couple more tomorrow. Coming off a rock ledge, where RamRod thought I was trying to tip him over, and some aerial footage of our lunch break.

 

[RamRod]

Can't wait to see the other bids, these ones were great!

 

[Scarsman]

Here is the aerial footage. We got a DJI Phantom and put a GoPro on it. My boys have been practicing with it, and want to use it on trail videos. unfortunately it was raining or threatening rain for most of this run. It turned nice during our lunch break, so they got it out and did some filming of the group, and then flew it up the trail we had just come down. Enjoy! Ad look forward to some cool aerial video from future runs!
