At least all you guys took plenty of pics of my truck. Cory had 3 out of the 12 he took. I'll post them after I resize them. or after I figure out how to resize them. also, how do I post a video. Cory shot about 20 minutes of slickrock and trail 8's ledges. I think I can download it direct to my PC and then upload it to the net. I'm computer stupid so it might take some time.

Mike, I have more pics and video of you I just didn't post all of my stuff b/c I have way too much file space to post. PM me your e-mail and I'll send it to you.

I also have video of Mark H., Zman, Spencer, Ernie, Chris on the Polaris, and some others. I'll post who I have videos of and if you're interested then you can pm me your e-mail and I'll send it to you.

Also, there are are tons of pics from the Cruiser crowd that is up there now for GSMTR. Includes pics of the FJ on Slickrock and the Guardrail bypass, and I think Pinchrock too:

That is sick that the FJ made it up Slickrock, and right down the middle, those things gain my respect more and more every day.

What's even more nuts is think of what that thing would do with a 2-3" body lift and 3" suspension lift and 35's!!!

Then you'd call it a FJ 40.

All Pro already has a coil over kit for them and a front bumper int he works. Next in line is a SAS kit, that has got to be the quickest turnover for a production SAS kit ever.

yeah, and guess what... they'll have to figure out how to keep the front ABS to keep the A-Trac functional. when they do that, they will also solve how to do it on the 3rd gen. that means keeping the electronics on a 01/02 runner and also keeping the speedo & abs on a 99+ limited w/ multimode.

I wouold hope so, that system is cool, but they might just throw a diamond ARB'd axel underneath and call it OKAY.

Sorry Warrbit. Back to SE4RJ picture chat.

The beauty of the vehicle is that YOU can CHOOSE lockers or A-Trac.

There are times when locking it up would be better and times when A-Trac would be better, All I can do is lock it up. If I could A-Trac as well, the devastation would be unreal.

Having full traction that slips a bit is a huge advantage, for times when you need to steer hard. Fully locked up you CAN NOT steer. With A-Trac you can steer like crazy.

Understand the technology. Not every SAS is successful.
