[@SevenBarAdventures]

Hi, was the U joint damage before? Should not break in that situation. bad luck mate.. We are planning for a winter overlanding trip this moment in Sweden, planning to celebrate New Year’s Eve in the forest with snow and great food :)

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

No it was a good u joint it was just under a lot of pressure and it let go. And wow that sounds amazing y’all have fun stay safe and happy holidays to you and your family.

[@SevenBarAdventures]

Buttercup EcoDiesel But you have hardly any weight on the front axel at that moment, what axel and tire size do you run?

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

Stock axle and a 39” BFG and I had it turned all the way driver so it was put in a bind and it let go lol. I have RCVs now.

[@SevenBarAdventures]

Buttercup EcoDiesel keep up the good work, like your movies. Please visit my channel and se out traveling in Europe:)

[@TexasOffroadAdventures]

@@SevenBarAdventures the arss had cleared the vertical of the ledge and shifted all the weight to the front driver in the hole, POP....

[@breakingbolts7621]

You have your sway bars on??? 🤦‍♀️

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

Actually no they aren’t 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

[@TexasOffroadAdventures]

it's a rubicon

[@johnschoenenberger2207]

Great video. Glad y'all aren't using those dangerous harbor freight jack stands😉🙃

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

This made me laugh way too hard 😂😂-Resa

[@smarterthanyou2674]

What happened to the RCV axles

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

I quit running them because they are so loud. They click and pop like crazy. They are going to send me some more under warranty so we will see if it helps.

[@TheTexasjsz24]

My family had a blast with you guys. We look forward to more wheeling with you guys.

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

[@bsideadventures2180]

@@alyssashelton4871 Oh east Texas is beautiful. Highly recommend

[@bsideadventures2180]

Its close to Arkansas which is great. Only a few hrs from Dfw. Its great if you like the country

[@alyssashelton4871]

@@bsideadventures2180 definitely looking for a more small town feel, the north is just so busy all the time, are you familiar with gilmer?

[@bsideadventures2180]

Not like the back of my hand. I live a few hrs west of it

[@phillyb4588]

Those spots got that mojito stuck lol

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

35’s w no lockers makes for a challenge that’s for sure. But they killed it out there 🙌🏼🙌🏼-resa

[@TexasOffroadAdventures]

"You're Gonna fall in dat hole" THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID....

[@neoxaero]

I thought: Oh man, cool - another off-road place in TX... Then my fenders, and rocker panels just went and destroyed themselves. Doesn't look like the right place for my rig

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

It’s not that bad plenty of easier trail there. Lol

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

If you want to see a hard one be looking for our next video from wolf caves in Mason Texas now that one will do some damage trust me

[@neoxaero]

@@ButtercupEcoDiesel Looking forward to it!

[@tillingwall]

Sorry you took it to break. That’s the point isn’t it. See just how much it will take before it’s busted . Leave that poor innocent ginger alone.....😉

[@ButtercupEcoDiesel]

None of those gingers are innocent I assure you of that lol but you already knew 😂😂. We found a weak spot now we fix it. -resa 🥰
