I don't understand why the truck did not climb that staircase : locked both ends + doubler. Looks like tires aired down ok....should have worked.

needed to stay away from one rock that destroyed my front yoke... and needed tires with more of an aggressive bite. I cant doo alot of wheel spin that is required... and so most buggies that run up that staircase spin tires to help the momentum...

After a very, very long hiatus... I have brought Beulah out of retirement to get her road worthy for the winter... something has happened to the charging system.. i have fresh dom tubing for a custom rear bumper, HID lighting, finish rear disc conversion... and possibly add the long and anticipated 6.5 turbo
