Carnage Thread

There were a few moments where I saw the differences start to show. But for the most part, none of that matters in Moab.
There is, as is often said from time to time, something for everyone. Same for Moab. Mild trails, to wild trails.
OP
Im impressed that you guys were able to get that jk out in the shape it was
Is that control arm supposed to have a bend? Or is that more carnage?
Surprisingly enough, its supposed to be like that. Those are the Core 4x4 T1 lowers with the 10$ poly bushing upgrade lol. Theyre temporary
I think I have a spare you can have.
Edit: Unfortunately it’s back in California
It helps that the rock in Moab is like sand paper so you have a lot more traction than most places.
Clutch update, replaced the master and slave with a prefilled assembly
Heat shield failure led to bubble in the fluid line? I've seen that on the auto trans shifter cable but not on a clutch fluid line.
Agreed, Pretty unusual for sure, there are closer places than that to the exhaust and the pinch seam clip that holds it was still connected so it must have got nicked by a branch or brush in the past. There’s worse places it could have failed like 202 yds further down the trail.

We have had to use the 32 RH shifter cable on AW-4 swaps because they have a small bit of heat shield. Amazing what a little bit of aluminum crinkle tube can do.
Better internet here at the KOA in Twin Falls... so here goes the much asked for @lBasket vs. tree video...
Wow, that happened so quick. Sorry to see that IBasket, I know I’d be bummed for a minute.
Yeah, it was quick, we were watching but he just turned into it and there it was before anyone could even react.
OP
You can really hear the smashing sound it makes good video. Cracks me up. It's a bummer but worth it for hitting those trails it was a good day still. My new duck tape job is pretty good too
I had the pleasure of observing @lBasket practice his duct tape repair at the camp ground, he is truly a master craftsman.
