  • After spending 9 days in the shop and almost 150 man hours, it's time to test out Denny's TMR Longarm suspension on his Jeep LJ. We hit ALL kinds of weather and really put it through its paces.

    Kenny's Jeep is looking pretty awesome now with the long arm suspension. Also another thing amazes me about your Jeep, and that is that virtually every single one of the new Wrangler series Jeeps that I have seen off-road have cracked windshields! I don't know what it is about those windshields, but yours is one of the few that has been used and abused off-road but still has an intact windshield. Absolutely amazing to me. Also nice to see you admit that you actually got stuck and something other than deep powdery snow and had to winch out of that mud bog.

    Bruce great job having podcasts. I’m 78 yrs at age 40 I got rear ended at stop light breaking neck and turning spine to oatmill. Although I can walk 5 surgeries deemed a failure. I take 105 mg of morphine 4 times a day allowing me to walk. I overcame best as I could took early retirement because of pain/dsability. Have aneurysm now inoperable. Surgeon told me If I’m lucky something else will kill me less painful. I am enjoying life. Went to Heaven and Jesus sent me back saying it’s not my time yet. So glad I have Jesus! You will not believe how much he loves us and how great Heaven is. No sleep in Heaven no going to bathroom bodies are perfect food perfect. No fear no anxiety. No pain , it’s oneness with GOD Almighty 🤗
