Pitch n roll

[Turbo yzel]

Anyone know what stock limits are?
Obviously each truck and set up will be different
But are the Oil or fuel supply have any issues when really pushing trails?
This is the Wifé at 26° and she was not comfortable
Had me thinking abut surging and cavitation etc

Thoughts?
Experience?

Subscribed. I have wondered if there is a baffled oil pan etc.

I was at the Off Rodeo in Vegas a couple of weeks ago and they said 25 degrees is the limit. Your wife had a good gut feel. I can see in the picture you were not going anywhere. They were talking about being higher up and sliding down and flipping. They also said at 23 degrees in soft gravel or sand is pushing it as well. The only way they knew to know your degrees is by using your pitch and roll on the dash. A guy there said he was at 25 degrees on a rock once and he felt he could slip any time. It was a bit harry. I would think if you were high on a rock at that angle in the picture you would would really know you are sideways...

They never mentioned oil and fuel supplies and no one asked the question.

I’ll see if I can get a friends fork lift
And get a better idea of the flipping point

No forklift yet
31° easy,no funny noises
Good oil pressure via OEM gauges
Biggest hill I could find for the day
Tried to do sideways
But group was in a hurry to beat weather
More updates soon

Here's me earlier in the summer in Michigan just after I got my truck. Not sure the angle. The Bronco Sport in the picture skipped this rock. They did pretty good though overall.

I wouldn't try that sideways. i think it would be a bad day. That is a nice pic with quite the angle.

Was able to get bronco app of all things to work
And found some new power lines
I had the truck at 20° up and 20° pitch before I figure out how to work the camera
Coming back down, it was at 19° and 19°

I guess I was knocking some loose dirt into the ditch and making it more level

Definitely had a little bit of pucker going on being out solo on a errand run when I spotted this
Hoping to get more time off work to get more data
And sneak in a forklift test at work

Here are some photos
Maybe 18 sec video if not too long

Getting 20/20 does have the pucker factor. . But even more impressive is that you got the Bronco app to work…. Incredible!
