Awesome video! I need a place like that out here. Would be intresting to see how my JK would handle that terrain. It climbs and crawls amazing but it will not side hill or go down hills good because it is top heavy and heavy in the front (which is both good and bad)

In that case it would probably climb well - though side hill capabilities are essential when navigating long steep climbs like in Vasquez. Its never a straight climb to the top - you have to avoid dips and drop offs. In certain situations you have to go back down the way you came up which means turning around on slanted rock so side hilling is super essential.

is there a part that shows the car getting destroyed and are the rails bent?

unfortunately the only footage I have is what you see at the end of this video. The owner tried to destroy that rig at-least 2 other times by sending it flying down long falls and it just kept coming back for more. The pic below is after the first 2 attempts. Amongst other things the frame is bent, shock mounts are ripped out, the tranny ripped out of the cradle - hence the white zip tie holding together

Great vid indeed and the "fall" makes my stomach cringe.

Your right prifral, RC-HOPPER owns that truck and he made that panhard. here is some more of his work, he made this one for his son but I ended up with it.
