This is part two of saving a LJ20 that was last driven 47 years ago. A rock slide cut off the trail/road back then.
These guys are prepared.

Just a bit surprised they DIDN'T put a stick of dynamite in the rock having bored the hole!

It's good stuff isn't it Pat - One of my favorite Youtube groups, I watch their videos often (there are many)....Matt and his crew do a good safe job doing what often looks impossible, saving folks and their vehicles from themselves, and poor off-roading decisions. I am always amazed at where people will try to take vehicles that should clearly never leave the pavement, and where the brave one's will take vehicles that are mostly/somewhat/well prepped for off-road. Having been an avid off-roader/Jeep family for decades gives an even greater appreciation for the adventures. Here in Florida the greatest challenges are MUD, mud and more mud (and actually finding places where you can legally go off-road), few and far between. Fun to watch, and should be required viewing for any contemplating any serious off-roading. This also reminds me I need to call so&so and get my HD tow strap and snatch block back!!!

My wife and I are Jeepers for life!!!

It hasn't been posted, yet.
It will appear in the next few days.
I don't remember what days of the week they send out a new video.

For those who are not familiar with Matt's Recovery, he has a "slightly" modified Corvair wagon that he uses in some of his videos.
