So over the weekend me & my buddies when out to Azusa Canyon so he could test out is Suzuki Samurai see video 1 link. While we were there a Ford Bronco was stuck in the mud see video 2 link, and a rhino was trying to pull it out see video 3 link. Well i had to just try and help :) and see what kind of power there is under the hood :D see video 4 link, enjoy.

Is that good for a transmission?

dude, you guys just yanked it right out.

I had it in 4 low, tow mode & D1 or D2 can't recall and that created serious torque. The funny part was that in the video you see the armada button out and dig in a little, but inside the cabin i did not feel a thing.

Is that good for a transmission?

Not sure, but i was keeping an eye on the rpm's and they were mostly under 4k. I think most of the stress was on the transfer case, but prior to that video we had done a couple "warm up" pulls to losing up his tires from the mud.

dude, that aint good for anything on that mada. you might want to check the bolts that hold the hitch on, i'd be surprised of they are not stress cracked or something. that was stupid if you ask me.

Shows the power, but I would have had the tow rope taught before pulling!
