    Everybody used the hell outta the armor. Matt had 4 broke cv axles and a inner tierod. I had to remove IFS skid a smash it back flat. Andy got body damage. The list goes on. It was a blast.

    Hey man! He’s doing ok kind of up and down, he has his good days and bad. My truck goes into the shop to have the wheel hubs replaced in the beginning of september and my dad traded our little conversion swap to paying our fab guy to build a custom bed rack that goes over my soft topper. He just can’t handle working on stuff right now so he surprised me with the bed rack idea. So before December I’ll have my new bumper, 4x4 swap done, and a bed rack. So excited ><

    Then it’s on to have my kings converted to extended travel, heavier springs, and resis added and a winch. Let’s just say I had a good season at work (;

    I don't think it was his fault. He was driving great. He just changed suspensions so that's suspect.

    I mean if he has some crazy front lift and severe cv angles then yeah I could see that happening. Definitely odd to blow 4 CV axles on one trail lol. Glad he had spares

    I had the concern about too much stress when he was 3 wheeling but figured we were so close to the top and would make it, but Thompson hill just kept going and going. :(
