Perfect weekend plan for G owners

Perfect plan for a weekend, mud, mud, more mud, some rocks and of course some difficult places to ride on

Hope you will enjoy the pics

Regards

RE: Perfect weekend plan for G owners

Very Nice pics and scary situation , this is way too much of a tip over angle I must say you have balls .
It reminded me of the pain in the testicles we were discussing a while ago on the other forum .

A suggestion : since you have a winch in similar situation hook it into some object on the right side of the G to make sure it wouldn’t tip over
Always remember off road is very enjoyable when it is practiced safely .

Hi Shebl, thats exactly what we did, but after the pics

I know it´s unbeliabable but the car was not touching the wall. A little space of 2 or 3 inches makes the difference ...

The result of this wonderfull day was a broken homocinetic joint, but not a single scratch.

So the tip-over angle of the car is still a big mistery

Regards

Are you telling me that in (tumbada 1.jpg) the truck isn't touching on the drivers side?!? It sure looks like new doors should be on order.

Well, that driver's mirror doesn't look too crushed to me!
