Well got my buddies truck running with the new body

My buddies wife driving up post pile this weekend on our way to Loon for the Cantina.

In my rush to get my truck running and ready for Cantina I forgot to check weather or not my e-lockers were working. Sadly they were not working and I was stuck running open front and rear. If I was going to be going the whole way through the trail I would have pulled the front motor and locked it in manually.
With out the locker I had a hard time at post pile  :(

Since I had never gotten around to extending my sliders I ruined my sheet metal  :rivers:



The coolest thing is the 16ga trailer fender I used to make my inner fender held up much stronger then my stock metal. You can see the side panel bent in above and below the inner fender. I'll snap a good shot of the damage tomorrow when there is more light.
