Well, here's the footage I took inside the SUV from off-roading.
That looks more like a shot out of a helicopter window and you're comming in for a landing!

when i was in high school we would go mudding to a place we called the sand pits. to get to the sand pits u had to cross a small stream about 10' wide coming down a 40 foot steep hill. i would hit this stream at about 40 mph. i was driving my parents mazda mpv mini van, not some off road truck. my friends would say it looked like an old mountain dew commercial when i hit the water. water shooting out on both sides of the van.

the worst was when i got stuck. the van's hogs head was resting on the mud, the tires almost complete covered. my friend pulled me out with this chain that broke twice, one link popped and shout out like warp 10 just missing one of my friends head. i was scared as shit that there was damage to the van, but i was lucky.

Jennifer who is that band in the video footage?

Wish I had some pictures handy, but my son and I built a trail Jeep from the bones of three CJ-5's, including a new 360, Optima battery and warn winch, beefed up axles, 4" lift, two-stick transfer case, granny low, etc. We even replaced the body and fabricated our own roll cage. That was several years ago, but we took it to Jeep Jamborees all over the northeast and had a blast. It's still around and one of these days we're going to remove the spring over conversion, downsize the lift, and convert it back to a plowing/beach driving/boat towing mule.

LOL It's just a body shell, the chassis having been whipped out from underneath it to be used in the building of a 'Blitz'. Bob is, being Bob and kneeling in the engine bay.

Was a bit wet in the woods of Scotland last weekend!

SPLASH!
