All I've seen are stump pulling fails on youtube. Hope yours turned out okay :D


This Recruit prides himself on being smarter than the average youtube-tard.

Dug around it, cut majority of large roots especially the tap root, cut a notch for the chain to lay in around the stump, used a grade 80 chain doubled up, rendered the chain in such a way as to ensure the chain tightened on itself with pressure and wouldn't slip out of the notch even when off angle, used a rubber mat over the chain as a recoil buffer, did NOT use the "get a running start and pray for the best" method of pulling.

A couple gentle tugs in 4-low, minor adjustments to chain to have the stump twist and pull itself loose, couple more gentle tugs; stump in the fire pit.

Installed my new fog light assemblies...purchased from A1-Auto. 2001 Ford Expedition Performance Chrome Bezel Fog / Driving Light Pair
(pics soon)

Later this week I have to replace my headlight switch assembly...stupid thing broke (my fault in part - was messing with it upon removal), but was failing in part with turning on/off the auto lights and fogs. PITA, to find the exact replacement, Motocraft did not have anymore, Ebay was no luck. so I had to purchase an aftermarket version (from RockAuto)...keeping fingers crossed to see if the thing works alright. :)

I ran over a pack of coyotes on my way home, 3 to be exact. ******* just standing in the middle if an unlit street having a conversation I would assume and I come doing 50 in my expy and plow through them. I stopped to check on them but all three stood up, one ran away seemed unharmed and 2 limped away...

I didn't wanna pursue them in case they turned on me but that was the first time running over an animal in my life.

Good thing you are ok and didn't swerve off the road or anything. Any front end damage? Or did they just bounce off the bumper?
