    I think you're talking about it "Heartbreak Ridge", I'd be down for that as well, depends on who's with us and their limits.

    Oh yeah I'm going to pull the other one apart. Like to know what I did to it. This one was only $250 so I jumped on it pretty quick. Leave it to toyota getting you home. Ford or Jeep I would of been towed.

    Thank God it's a Toyota, any other brand and you'd be in trouble most likely

    I know the sound. You'll hear it on the runner eventually. If you wheel its only a matter of time.

    Theres also guys on TW with 35'S and 200k+ miles on them. Shit happens. I've seen spindles flex fine in the wild doing worse things than what I've done. Doesn't mean shit can't happen.

    Sliders didn't come through. I'll bail on this trip and catch the next one when the truck is a little more ready. Hit the big trails and take some good pics!

    Got the estimate to fix my wife's Nissan today. About 1300 buck. Ouch. But better than a car payment. Probably could get the price down a bit if I buy the parts myself, but not sure how the shop would like that. Kind of like bringing your own steak to a steak restaurant I suppose. 750 in labor to tear apart that engine for a knock sensor, timing belt kit w/water pump and the valve cover gasket kit, as the valve cover are leaking on both sides.
