I get the feeling this guy uses blue loctite…So, question. Did the leverage cause the bolts to break or did the guy just not use red loctite just in case he needed to remove them? You know, because of how permanent red is
You'd think theyd stand behind their product and offer a replacement if they changed the design to make them "stronger and less prone to failure"I get the feeling this guy uses blue loctite…
74Weld did reply on the post saying “this was an old design and now use bigger bolts”….cool, still a big no thanks.
Same here. Lol. He was...it's in 4lo....turned the rear locker on....then pow.
He said something about a needle bearing not being installed, but how did he drive his truck to the Rubicon? I figured if he had a trailer he would have loaded it back up. He was waiting on a tow truck. I'd say the risk out weighs the reward. All the SAS Toyotas and Wranglers were driving past him while they were laughing, leaking gear oil, and drinking beer.
I actually just saw his video pop up about it. He wasn’t on an obstacle or anything that should have caused the break. He was fortunate that it happened early on and not deep into the trail.Same here. Lol. He was...it's in 4lo....turned the rear locker on....then pow.
Very true. I'm not on some crazy built rig, but I'm sure I could have gotten past the gate keeper. If he had that much trouble on the road up there then he's in trouble.
That was the portal
And you would have quite a bit of money left over to boot!
