Ok question?????
At 7:35 in that video the H1 hits a rock with its front left tire that pushes it all the way to the left bump stop but the front right tire stays true??!?! WTF. What steering set up is he running? Did the drag link flex enough to allow this and just spring back??

Fully stretched suspension puts the tie rod at an angle,slightly worn idler, and a mildly worn UBJ. These all added up to extra tire swing.Normally the truck would have just gone straight over that pebble.
Now you all know the secret to the rubber tie rod.
Now, with added ground clearance this year,
I need to see:
how deep (was momentarily detained in 44" of Orillia swamp the second time thru)
how rocky (25"+ of body clearance),
I can put this frankenstein thru.
Anyone want to follow me into the bush???? Anyone?

This will be weird though, you normally follow me on the trail and then you are the tow truck...but hey with my new Michelin XML tires I am ready to take on your ruts!!!
Btw, how come you have "added ground clearance this year" What did you do???? How come all these secrets?????

I'll be there with the family so far. I'm just surprised that the hotels still let us in.
