Cool video. I have some cool pics of your jeep going through a big puddle. It's a series of 3 pics. You can just barely see your jeep through all the spray in one of them. I posted a link to the pics in the other thread.

Very nice Shoup! I thought you were going to go at the pit again. What were you being pulled with? It looked like a huge hook.

Looks like a good time.

Though I am sorta over the use of a hook and chain in a recovery situation. Sorry, don't want to be a down or anything and maybe even 99 times out of a 100 you'll never have a problem but it could be that one time that something goes awry and someone ends up seriously injured or killed.

If anyone is on the "GreatLakes4x4" forum just search "Death of a Weekend Wheeler" for the story about it.

The hook is a hook/chain combo off from a Tow truck hold down. Derek, I thought about going through the damn thing again but I didn't lol.
