Well went to my buds house he said why don't I try some ground hawgs he had just sitting. Well he took his blazer out only 4x2 now transmission swap and he put in a 4x2 just to have it back running and this one boy who we worked on his Dodge with 38s swampers the blazer had 44 hawgs and now I have 40 hawgs before we took of I over heard the boy and his dad say maybe you can pull out a Chevy today I just laughed. We took of the blazer went first he almost made it so I went around an pulled him out then before I got back to the start the Dodge tried it only to fail at the same spot the blazers dissolved I pulled him out. Blazer got stuck again pulled him out then the Dodge tried again pulled him out I'm kind of shocked at how well the hawgs are gripping for having a open front and rear she did handle real good. Well the boy in the Dodge said why haven't I gone threw yet I said what's going to pull me out. So I tried it only to get a little snagged up so I could back up and work forward then back making my way out not beating up the truck at all then snap. I thought the transfer case popped outgof gear so I tried to outvoted back in bust can't find any gear no grinding or anything. So we went back to the house to get a tractor and pull me put after we got it out this is what I find

So now back to the nv4500 lol granted all that broke was the adapter but since I have to pull it.

would a nv3500 hold up to some abuse?
