Would this have caused any serious damage? (Video)

I was really surprized when I saw this video. That looked like a typical off road sitation. Does anyone know maybe what went wrong or what broke (assuming something did in fact break)? Also, is the under portion of the H2 able to withstand a fall that big?

I dont know. Maybe the driver should have known not to drive over that. And they clearly were giving it too much gas... but still. That looks like a situation the H2 should be able to handle just fine. Im really dssapointed.

(Sorry if this video has been posted before)

....You know what I was trying to do lol. And Yes. Not only do I like cows. But I want to be one.

Maybe you should check out the VW Toureg. The H2 may not be ment for you!!

Couldn't agree more.

Poor, poor, Fred.
Tie Rods only break on Pewter and Green H2's.
K?

Everybody knows that.

[DennisAJC]

Agreed.

Oh and im curious... does anyone know how much it costs to replace the H2 tie-rod? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>No.

[Fredrick_NP]

H1... I wish they would make a hummer that had the H1's capabilities, and H2's style. I mean the H1 is freaking awesome... its just so... ugly IMHO.

[VTSTOMPER]

you must really like cows?

What should he have done then? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

GREAT FIND! This must be a new video! Man, I can't believe that guy took a truck that expensive off road... esp. when his off road abilities were not there. I wonder if this video will make it's rounds all over the world claiming the reputations of ALL H2 vehicles and their drivers.

I guess he should have been driving an H1.

[VTSTOMPER]

At least the towrag is the same as the porsche pepper.

It's not a stereotype, I believe most of us are *******s, and darned proud of it </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I know I'm damn proud of my e-reputation.
Stock tie rods make good thwacking instruments.
Fred-Eric, want me to show you?

[h2co-pilot]

LOL- what an idiot.


SImple terms- the passenger side tire slipped on it's inner sidewall- and the angle at which it ended up was too harsh and awkward for the tie-rod which was supporting the weight of the front end. A couple of inches over and the slip wouldn't of happened, the front passenger tire is invisible to the driver. The driver is actually one of the best and I have seen him wheel. This was just a weird happenstance. Part of wheeling.


Fredrick, you just reminded me to go on a college forum to ask about this video I saw on Badboys/Break.com.

God told me you are going to hell for using his name in vain and touching yourself.

[W1N]

Fredrick, sounds like the swedes are back in da house. More meatballs, anybody?

[Kellen]

I've certainly seen that video before. Around the office we periodically chuckle about it. Man, some drivers.

I dont have a video of it but the other day I saw a Jeep and the drive shaft u-joint broke dropping the shaft on the ground. The jeep was on pavement, but it occurred just after going over a speed bump. Is this normal for Jeeps? It did not seem to be that big a speed bump and was certainly within the jeep's capabilty. I was very disappointed. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Jeeps are trail rated, not parking lot rated
