I'd watch spinning it around that fast... a guy on another board was looking for a new cab after he went sliding on ice to do a spin around and hit soft dirt. One of his tires sunk in, blew off the rim and he rolled it over...just once and hard enough to crunch the cab considerably.

As for the rest of the stuff...you're prolly gonna break something, but that happens when you off-road so have fun til you do...lol

hehe, hope you had fun. i took mine offroad once. it's pretty fun, but i almost f@cked up one time, i can't remember how fast i was going but i hit a bunch of holes that made it feel like i was airborne, then had to hit the brakes and skidded a little. what i discovered when i got out to check everything is that 3 feet too late and i would've flipped. about a 6 ft dropoff that would've done it for me. if my truck were older i would do it more. there's a 4x4 genII dakota lifted with 33's on it that's pretty cheap i might get to have some fun in.
