This was on a low speed obstacle course we ran at the Sun River Sand drags/Mud Bog. It was mainly a crowd pleaser event.


Lands pretty soft and launches good for a 6000# rig.

damn, looks like it hurt! the only time my suburban was ever that far off the ground it was an accident, lol!
 
Ha, looks like fun! Where is Sun River, looks like a fun event.
A little west of Great Falls. They ran 2 events this year and are talking about expanding the obstacle course and running at least 3 events next year. It's a charity event for raising money for the Fire Department and the Local Robotics club.
 
Shackle flip in the rear with good bump stops and Tuff Country HD Springs up front. I "now" am using Daystar bump stops up front. They are the cheaper version of air bumps. They come with replaceable inserts.
 
That is way cool. I think I like the pictures best (they make it look real radical) Did not look all that rough in the video. I cant believe how fast you got that thing together seems like only last week we were guessing what color it was going to be.
 
I wish it was that quick... This it what was on 26 Jan 2009. I did the first race/tuff truck in April 2011.

Here is a vid of the first beating it took. This one bent the frame and folded it into my motor. I bent it back out and fish plated it with some 5/16". This also prompted the daystar bump stops.
