Absolutely! Makes some pretty insane stuff look super easy.

He is one of the best true rock crawlers I've seen. Granted he runs those trails in Moab more than probably anyone does; but I've seen him taking Trail Mater (and it's a leaf sprung dually) on stuff that it doesn't seem he should be able to take it on. :please:

Did you see the video of the guy in the Jeep buggy that tried to repeat that after Rory did it? Tumbled it.
No! I missed that one. ? I’m taking automotive and welding at school right now. Rory was a big inspiration for that.

It would of been easier to of just drilled another hole for the rod and tell driver to go home. Also, where's your lug nut key socket.

Didn't really look like there would be enough room to just drill another hole. Probably more likely to blow out again anyway.

Ah, didn't realize they had different knuckles. I'm looking at these for my Rubicon.

I installed the rock jock knuckles on mine. Super happy with them. The Reid knuckles are awesome too. I just had already started with Rock Jock components so I stayed with them when I ordered the knuckles.

Those look awesome. All I have right now as far as extra strength up front is the steersmarts trackbar. I want to do the knuckles, ball joints, tie rod and drag link in one shot. Just haven't decided on the parts.
