I also put my Walker Quietflow crap back on. The droning got on to me...

From last Thursday

Back when I went wheeling with the FJC

Beep!
(glad I'm not the only one who does that )

We call those scratches pinstripes in MO. You can also call them character.

Looks like lots of fun was had, great pics! Bit jealous over here.

Whatever you call them, they still look like crap.... I need to do something with mine from a month ago. On narrow trails, the 4th gen really seems huge.

The trail was actually relatively easy. Just needs some trimming. There were several trees needing pruning/removal because they had fell over. And hundreds of small twigs. One good one got me though. It might wax out?

And upon closer examination, no dents on the under side. I know I hit something once though.

The Trail 104 video is pretty cool.

It was kind of weird. It was fun until I realized that we had to either go back the way we came in (doubtful) or go up the other side of the small valley. Luckily, the uphill was easy with no mud holes or slick clay. I got a bit p-o'ed about the trail and probably because as a dad, I was a little concerned that we might get stranded. But we got out ok.

Well, I did some more cleaning. There is a big dent in the gas tank skid :nono:

It's not easy to spot. But one you notice it, it's definitely there.

Chop top 4Runner anyone?


My Roof Rack!





I finally got a real center console. This one was just the shell.


I also got a mint rear bumper for when I dent mine up.

I was immediately drawn to that sweet angle iron front bumper.

Got my Stay The Trail stickers!




New backup lights! I changed out the floods in the front for spots, so I put the floods back here.




This doesn't show at all how bright they are

Gettin' pulled by a Jeep :0


Now for the damage...
Bent a LCA and slightly dented the mount. I should be getting my Lotus Skids soon :becky:


Hit my sliders


Gotta bang out my skidplate. It's touching the tank in one spot.


Anyone ever seen a piece of wood inbetween the tire and wheel before?

What roads/trails did you do and how were they? I almost went down there yesterday to camp and then wheel today.
