You could see in the first part that the driver was too happy with the skinny pedal. Couple that with turning the wheels and not airing down, or at least not enough, he was just asking to bust an axle.

No doubt, he seemed to have a lot of issues going over some very minor obsticles. His traction issue look as if they frustrated him until he broke something.

I have to beleive that I would have made it thru with no issues. But it wouldn't be the 1st time I was fooled You don't know until you try it.

BTW they guy in the YJ looks like he had a rough day getting home.
