Thanks man, I know there are plenty more action shots from the TTORA crew, their unofficial photographer was there snapping pics the whole time.
So waiting on those still..

and no, Each and every one of my skid plates got a few bruises, as well as the sliders, rear bumper, and the front bumper has a few scratches, as well as the chrome trim on the pass front broke the clips..

Yeah, just a bit of karnage

If you still think its pointing down..your crazy.
No one ever points an axle downwards, that would be a crappy pinion angle, And I can assure you allpro would not sas an FJ and do a crappy job.

No I understand, I think currie's rock jock D60 design is a bit different then the standard HP 60 you would pull off of a stock truck, IE, points the diff cover up and out of the way of rocks...

Happy wheelin
