Trail repairs on John Bull (welding steering back together) [part 2]

This video was shot and edited by our very good friends at Bent Motorsports! We met up with them for a super fun day on the trail just up the freeway from us in Big Bear. I've done lots of wheeling in Big Bear over the years although i must admit the last time i did John Bull there was about 2 feet of snow on the ground so I didn't remember it that well. They just built their ford explorer the night before they left, including custom made upper control arms that turned it into a Mid-travel truck, and new rear suspension as well. Bent Motorsports has a great shop here in So Cal, one day when we grow up and become real adults we hope to be like them!

Would love to do such trips here in Germany or Europe. But here its just complet illigal, outside of for that prepared areas. Have to travel to africa to do real nice trips. But then you have to look more for things that you take with you. Makes the cars realy havy and cramped. Keep on! use the Freedom this nice country gives you. 👍

In SoCal too. Not too far from Big Bear. Tbh I’m just now getting into wheeling and trying to learn. Trying to figure out what truck I want. So far from researching I Love guys’s rig the most, so rad! Do you think diesel trucks are just too much on the trail? Well anyway, I would Love to wheel with you guys someday if it’s possible. God Bless!

I am starting to build a first gen 4Runner and was wondering how far forward you moved your front axle

That was all James from Bent motorsports, you should check out kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGqspKeKZ9hqnrc it's better than the official KOH coverage. He's an insanely talented dude.

We usually post our trips on our instagram, you're always welcome to join! Our truck is probably going to be under the knife for longer than this quarantine lasts but after its done we'll be back out like normal.

Hey Ian would you recommend joining the military? I'm Canadian so ours isnt as funded as the us but still learn a lot of skills n shit, always wanted to do it but still only 24 but hesitant due to ptsd afterwards lol

[@WheelEveryWeekend]

Personally i would say go to a good trade school and get a high paying blue collar type job like electrician plumber hvac tech etc. I have no idea about the canadian army but in the US army none of the skills really transfer over to the civillian world, for instance in the US army i was literally assisting surgeries overseas and in charge of medical plans for entire units but in the civillian world im not even licensed to give someone an IV. The way we fight war is changing, actual kinetic fighting is kinda going away so unless you're special ops (canadian spec ops have more confirmed kills than ours in iraq right now) your chances of fighting in combat are low. Even just in the US army most people dont deploy and out of the people that do most are lucky enough not to see combat at all. I would urge you to look into some kind of technical school if you're looking to learn skills and apply those.
