Fixzded.

Wow that was pretty impressive....:2thumbs:

 

[69.5CUDA]

its only impressive till you put a lil bit of thought into it....

wheres the body bolts?
finger tight bolts holding the spring eyes to the frame?
wheres the front drive shaft?
wiring?
battery?
radiator? and coolant?
e-brake cables?
brakes in general?
finger tight bolts on the steering column?

the ONLY tools used on the whole thing was to pop the wheels off....and certainly those are NOT torqued


i dare them to take it off road and watch it crumble...the lack of brakes makes me think they stoped it with the transmission

I agree with you there 69. I thought of those same things, but regardless it's still a pretty entertaining display if nothing else.

Well - people can pick it apart all they want, it's still a pretty impressive example of teamwork. And teamwork is something that's in far too short supply these days IMO.

Never looked at it from that perspective...yup there is definitely some team work in that performance.

i think id be more entertained by a nascar pit crew doing something similar in likely less time as a "functional" product...its an intresting concept tho

Ooooo Yeah.....Those nascar crews are pretty amazing!!

 

[69.5CUDA]

the real test would be tossing it thru the standard military test course for a jeep......just to prove its not a "prop" jeep

i think watching a nascar craw lay it out every last nut and bolt and put it all back together would be amazing regardless of the time consumed

That would be very interesting to watch....:hmmm:

That would be very interesting to watch....:hmmm:

...Certainly more interesting than the racing itself...:toot:

I watched part of the Richmond race Saturday night and fell asleep not once, not twice, but three times.
Sad.

What I find interesting is the engineering that made that whole process possible.

 

[69.5CUDA]

engineering..or "prop making" to make it possible?.......ponders how the steering box was held in....hood pins?
