So true...and then you drop it and it doesn't fall out underneath so you spend 20 minutes trying to figure out where the hell it landed.

woot! i finally have enough parts to justify a complete yeti teardown.
(still waiting on a new batch of bmrc axle stubs, but i got some axial yeti universals im gonna try with a open front diff packed with 500k diff wax mixed with corn starch, which i suspect will be just like silly putty, maybe a little stiffer.)

Points I supposed. I had one on my JK for a while and didn't use it. I can't imagine it would be very helpful in a comp except to maybe help realign your rear if you're slipping off something. They're probably more helpful on a real rig when you're stuck and need to pull yourself out.

Ya thats what I thought. Scale points, I don't need more. I am told they help side hilling.

I wonder if anyone at ecsc saw one being used?
