Re: And They Say Delicas Are Top Heavy....
Doesn't matter how top heavy you are in that situation if you are limited to 86 hp. Swap a 4d56 into that jeep and the front end would have never left the ground!! In fact, it may not have even moved!! From the looks of it these guys should be limited to >90hp anyways.....
if it were a toyota I would be making stuck accelerator puns.....

Re: And They Say Delicas Are Top Heavy....
was expecting to see a Delica in that vid. Dissapointed !!
The title should read "inexperienced offroader flips truck"
he could have prevented that by letting go of the gas pedal instead of braking

You think he was braking? I didn't catch that. But we don't want you to feel disappointed Jesse, so here's a vid with a Delica in it.

Re: And They Say Delicas Are Top Heavy....

Is that really stiff shocks or torsion bars???

An oldie but a goodie! (both of those vids)
I think that crawling up something like that instead of putting the pedal to the metal would have been a better approach.
