Even with the inevitable body work and parts expenses, it seems less expensive. Geez, now we just need to name it.

Mark that "half out of the truck" picture for next year. It needs to go on Tanto's next birthday cake.

Wow, and you could still muster a smile for the camera after that carnage? That musta been a real bad feeling when that flop happened. eeek! No injuries?

Sorry I missed the run as I was tied up with other weekend events. Looks like you guys had another killer run in the hills. Bummed I has to miss this one as the last time on the "acre" was good fun.

Ryan - am I to understand that the standing roll was all in an effort to park on that rock? Wow, that's some crazy shiat. You do know your not driving a straight axle don't you? Guess it's too late for an external cage - or maybe not...........

Nice pics. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, it was an attempt to park on the rock, but as you can see I took it too far up the side. About a foot lower and I would have been good. The truck just let me exceed its limits. It has taught me a lot about the inferiority of my IFS, but I'm still not sure whether its going to get a SA or LT kit. DR Coilovers in July though for now. An exo cage would be sweet but I people charge so much in labor to do that stuff that I'm not thinking about it right now.

I need to find a new light for the rear so I don't have to worry about the cops right now. I'd def order a calendar if a pic of my truck on its side was it it!

Chicks dig body damage - nuff said

Keep an eye out around next Sept./Oct. for a thread where pics get submitted for the calendar.
If you have a hi-res of that pic, that would be better.

I don't know about a Solid Axle making that angle either. It was really steep. Gravity is gravity.

Not sure when the next run will be. I need to do some skid plate work before I do anything too tuff. The stock one is hammered around the rack and pinion assembly.

Can't wait until fall and the big camping weekend trips.

Are you thinking of making a new one out of some plate steel?

Looks like it was a fun trip. too bad about your truck damage, Ryan, maybe your insurance will pay for it? I should have gone, my tuna trip got cancelled because of the weather, but I got up to late to go.
