This is painful to watch. Glad everyone was OK.
Matt being the typical goof when announcing the LC model.
Is this Yankum guy on MUD. Is the LX getting saved? Seems like it could be.

Thanks, eBay AustraliaNice truck. Assuming an American market truck, where did you get the headlight setup? I’ve thought about doing that and replacing with LED’s...
That's a huge stinger.Finally got around to changing out the spark plugs, wires, cap n' rotor and extended my front and rear diff breathers. My girlfriend enjoyed the show too!View attachment 2567051View attachment 2567052

Rant time....
I don't get why people use 80's for rock crawling. They can certainly handle it and perform well, but I do not think they are optimal for crawling. This is a great example of why, what a waste of a clean bodied rig.
I feel like 80 series are much better suited for general offroading, going on adventures, exploring, and boonie bashing. Rock crawlers should stick with smaller rigs.
This area is literally in my backyard. I could be up on that trail in 30 minutes. Years ago I spent alot of time wheeling sand mtn and riding dirt bikes up there. Now it has turned into a giant s*** show with a ton of idiots from Vegas and Cali in their bought not built jeeps. I can see why Matt's offroad recovery has been so successful. I almost think some people get stuck on purpose just so they can be on his YouTube channel.
Even riding dirt bikes up there has become sketchy with all the morons in their side by sides and jeeps, half of which are drinking all day, it is just too dangerous to ride up there.
I went out Tuesday evening to shoot a new gun and let the dogs get some exercise. The cliffs in the background are sand mtn.

Didn't think to check the Fab Rats video. ThanksIn the Fab Rats video of the same incident, he mentions doing a body swap
Agreed, poor decision and, too fast. Also can't rule out being distracted. Wheeling in a group is fun and often advised but, they should be following the leader and not fanned out all over the trail. The driver may have been paying too much attention to the drivers on the left, right and directly behind instead of what was before them.Looked like driver error to me... she obviously needs a lowered XJ or should be riding with the guy taking the correct line and learning lines before getting behind the wheel.
Took off the bumpers to prep for some fab work....(making my own high clearance winch bumper) View attachment 2567853
