Never saw an update from Louis. I assume he made it home ok since he 'liked' some of the posts in this thread. Did you drive the 4runner back home? What's the damage?

OMG, I'm very glad I was excepted into this wonderful group of people. I haven't felt such a warm welcome!

This was my First Trip with FR4x4 and apparently one of the most destructive! Boy was I lucky. Lol, sorry guys. All jokes aside, I honestly hurt from some of the sounds that came from those vehicles. You really feel for your fellow wheeler. The trail was slick and sloppy. It was great. What a pit crew out there (either trick)! That was awesome to see. The speed at which anyone was willing to help was inspiring. I can't wait to make many more memories with ya'll!


Added a couple new pics!!

Thanks Jim. Oh, and the coil was previously donated!

Finally I have some time to post, great seeing everyone again. Turned out to be a fun day until I broke my rear dif. Thanks to David and Mike for escorting me back to the trailhead and for Mike giving me a ride back home to get the trailer. Afternoon I went back and got the 4runner home. Today I took it apart and I have some photos of the damage, pretty painful just looking at it, this is the second time breaking it. I really need to upgrade the axle soon if I’m planning to be hard on it. But hey, we had fun and that is what this is about.

for everyone who was there... you get to re-live the horror
for anyone who missed, you get to experience the sounds

"fun" ring & pinion pic. If you're going to do a job, do it right - LOL

How did it happen? Spinning tire that grabbed and carnage happened - or tires grabbing (not spinning) and more gas pedal was applied?

EDIT: Nevermind - the vids had wonderful audio quality...
