Basically to most folks (myself included) who don't go rock crawling every other day, the use of a hand actuated throttle would imply that you can't push the gas pedal with your foot. One of these reasons could be because you're paralyzed or straight up missing the leg. Hope that clears it up. h:


Have you used one of these hand throttles before? Seems like it'd take quite a bit of practice to master.

I wasn't sure if he was being serious (which would be completely understandable) or if he was being sarcastic because he knew I wasn't a parapalegic :dunno:

Yes I've played arounf with one before. Sensitivity can be adjusted. And its not like you only use this. When driving faster and when you have to shift you use your foot, but when you're in 1st/2nd gear "crawling" over rocks or obstacles, you set the hand throttle at whatever rpm you want and use left and right feet for playing witht he clutch and brakes.

Now thats clear

Oh well...

Its an 02 Sport supposed to be on factory ride height but somehow it sits about 1-2" higher than other TJ's I park next to.

I don't. Everyone else always calls me that cause my name is Sebastian.

You know..."Kick his ass Sebass!"

Somehow without me ever telling anyone thats one of my nicknames, they always derive Sebass from Sebastian. Its an epidemic I tell you. I don't mind its all
