SO yeah that FJ was at All Phase. Dave designed and Eston welded on the tube work onto the front bumper. I LOVE those All Phase guys!

Stay tuned guys. I am working on a video for a friend on TTORA that basically showcases all the trails we have run with him this past year. Maybe I'll have that done later this week...

I *really* need to make a Video for Troy...

Careful... that guy is a yotatech member

Yeah when you have an underpowered 2nd gen with no lockers... on a trail like carnage canyon - sometimes skinny pedal is all you have! (I can only speak from experience)

None actually! But we did at one point have a Jeep which has seized his clutch, being pulled by a 3rd gen, being pulled by a second gen being pulled by a LC all in a row - in order to get enough momentum to pullt he jeep out. That is hands down the craziest tow I have ever done!

But, yes, there were more than our share of .... ummmm - dynamic .... pulls that day due to the low traction.

Actually, WildTurkee did a pretty good job. 2nd gen suspensions are kinda bouncy. I had forgotten how hard you have to hammer an open/open rig on trails like that!
