thats how it appears to me. put 35" tires on a 1/2 ton axle behind a very
powerful v8 in a 6500 pound truck with a heavy foot in the rocks and it
wouldnt be to hard at all to tear something up.
sorta pitiful, huh?

Re: silly h2
Yet another reason to avoid IFS off-road. When you put the hammer down IFS
wants to go pigeon toed. If you watch closely the driver it trying to turn
right, puts on the gas and just a split second before it breaks the right wheel
turns to the left. I'd bet a dollar that it busted the knuckle. IMHO IFS is a
design flaw in any off road vehicle.
How long until you start seeing beefed up "off road" knuckles for the H2? For
all of GM's chest thumping that the H2 is an off road capable vehicle, it is
obvious to me that they really didn't test or design it for heavy use. That
knuckle shouldn't have broken.

I bet that was the first time that vehicle had been off road.
