Is that the name of that obstacle? Winch Hill? There’s still Old Big Sluice we didn’t run, I think it would stack up.Super fun. I'd rate that obstacle harder than anything on the rubicon. At least the section we ran.

I feel like a dodged a bullet with the TB. It could have been bad. Especially since I'd need to drive 45 min in each direction to get cell service from where it happened.That says something being you didn't have a rear sway bar! Crazy at your TB bolt. That happened to me once years ago when I still had a stock TB. Left work for lunch and go just past the gates and got weird. Bolt was gone and the axle side of the TB was dangling!
I guess we need to do old sluice now.Is that the name of that obstacle? Winch Hill? There’s still Old Big Sluice we didn’t run, I think it would stack up.
I don’t know if you remember but that happened to me on the Rubicon when I was bombing back down the road looking for Sergio because I thought he turned on Barker Pass, just when I found him the bolt fell out and I had to borrow a bolt from him.I feel like a dodged a bullet with the TB.

@Plumber1 and I made it without pulling rope, @Lonewolf would have if he had a locker up frontI guess we need to do old sluice now.
According to Mike it's called winch hill. Did you guys all make it up?
I'm sure mine broke, I had a locknut and blue thread locker on it, I came over a bump and locked the tires up cause there was a family in a bronco pulled off the road, I asked if they had seen the 4Runner just then he showed up and when I drove forward the Jeep steered off to the left. Definitely not a warm feeling.Yikes! Sounds like you two need to get BMB's ARP TB bolt/nut combo.
Haha nice photo bomb Alex
Quick without looking which doors did he have onMike looked to be the odd man with his dark blue rig, lol!

Did you guys make it up ok? The group with the broke red LJ pulled rope on three rigs, the red one winched all the way from the bottom, we were there for hours. I now know why a lot of rigs that passed us were going back when we were having lunch.@Plumber1 and I made it without pulling rope, @Lonewolf would have if he had a locker up front

I was the only one that made it up without winching but I was also 4th to try, so lots of rocks were already stacked. If you ask @midnightljr though he will say with a better spotter he would have made it upDid you guys make it up ok?

It's no joke. Without both axles locked I cant see someone being able to get up without winching.Sounds like Winch Hill is no joke! So, you guys turned around before this obstacle?
Man looks like an awesome time! I should move northI was the only one that made it up without winching but I was also 4th to try, so lots of rocks were already stacked. If you ask @midnightljr though he will say with a better spotter he would have made it up
Someone I'm sure has a photo but we were going far left and it looks like you guys went far right.
