    Hell's gate is a perfect example of this^^^. Really easy obstacle that you see people roll on somewhat often and it's all because the driver or spotter made a big mistake... You have the right line and take it easy and it is a piece of cake!

    I could see a slight slope on that pad of concrete with the loading ramp.. that could very well easily turn into a off camber situation

    Yeah when I went off camber it was when I realized having unsecured shit in your cab is dumb when wheeling. Especially when a gallon jug of water hits you.

    And I feel like our Tacoma doors are still pretty light compared to some full size trucks I have been in! haha My dad always slams my doors when he shuts them because he isn't used to how much lighter they are than his.

    4L turns off all of the airbags? Didnt know that. that explains a lot of things then lmao. It always has amazed me why in some situations they haven't gone off yet while on the trail.

    I'm not 100% on that. BGR told it to me camping last weekend, but after all his airbag issues I would think he is a pro on them.

    or the dam door doesn't shut because the cab is so twisted...

    I hate our seatbelts. everytime I get offcamber I get close to the "ass pucker" moment and when I try to put it on the dam gravity pulley or whatever it is won't let it pull out

    Of all the pics in here, I think you had enough flex that yours counts as off camber. haha You cab was cranked over decently:cool:

    I'll bet if you backed up that ramp that you could make it all the way to the top with all wheels on the ground! IFS doesn't flex very well when it is the top corner like in your pic.
