I don't know why your getting flack for torture testing your truck. I think it's great that you are willing to destroy your nice truck to see how tough it is. It's actually no different than the guy who jumps his x Maxx over his garage, equally as stupid, obviously it's going to break. But you own a construction company, and probably have more disposable income than most. So if you want to bust your truck wheather it's off a crane or in the air on a jump, that's your prerogative. You get flack because most people wouldn't do that due to the cost of doing it, if you got money to burn, then your decisions are based on different parameters. Chill everyone.

Bash on!

by the way, he got other vid with some jumps and he's open to proposal , I mean he will do what ever you want, ehm I mean videos , RC videos !
GREAT TEST of how it broke.
Bottom line: Needs RPM suspension.
It won't break but the a- arms pull out of the hinge pins.
I fixed that problem on my T-4.
Answer: Don't follow the directions.
