As a maritime historian, I give you "High Water Marks" on job well done, and "Splice the mainbrace" which means the crew (in your case the captain) receives an extra ration of rum
Thanks, The factor 55 site has no picture or explanation as to how this works. I mean I get the splicing part, but they don't even have a pic of the thimble from the back on their site to be able to confirm how this functions.
No need to do that taper. The Factor55 splicer will pull the rope through w/o the taper. I hit the cut end with a lighter - probably not necessary. Very nice explanation video!
@@ProdigalOverland I believe it came stock with skid plates. I've also done alot of research and it's very hard to find a limited version with the trail rated badge. so I don't have any comparison.
I have recently removed broken lsd motor which engage “rear locker”. I notice that two cables go to one socket and eight to other one. Anyone one know to which cables I need connect switch to engage the motor itself so I can apply rear locker on my demand not when computer decide? I know it will potentially fire fault codes as sensors on wheels decide when the slip momentum is happen and engage the motor but I would like to be more in control while drive off road. Does any one have and can share electric schematic of the rear connection I am trolling about lol? It is two connectors one had two cables which is 12v power ( red and black) and other has 8 connections which I presume came from wheel sensors?
Boy, I could hear the nerves here, didn’t seem very comfortable. You don’t splice lines very often do you? Good job. I’ve taught many people how to splice, I’ve tried to teach many more. Most peoples’ eyes just glaze over dealing with ropes, knots, and especially splicing. I really love splicing myself! Keep up the good work.
I switched over to soft shackles in my recovery kit. I like them a lot more. Great video!
Yep they are nice !
That's pretty cool and never knew how to do that kind of thing. Thanks for always teaching us sir.
Having sailed the Great Lakes for 10 years, recognized the fid and technique right away... looks like an awesome mod... another great video!
Great to hear!

You’re always a super stud in my eyes. 😂🤣
Couldn’t resist!

Very informative, Brad!
Thank you!

Great explanation. Thanks
Pretty cool, do you have any best ways to winch yourself or someone else out of certain situations?
Maybee we will put a winching video together sometime.

How capable off-road would a 3.6L trail rated 2016 GC limited with air suspension be?
Capable. It would be more about having the right protection as far as skid plates and rock rails

@@J.Lavigne I just got a 2015 limited with a trail rated badge. I definitely intend on putting it to the test.
@@haidafulton to this day I still have trouble finding gc limited with the trail rated badge.
@@J.Lavigne same! I feel super lucky to have bought it before I even knew what trail rated was!
Do you have an Instagram?

Like I said first time. But it was fun.
