ohhhh your the guy who was i the box at about midnite ish after dylan balls went through it. i left after dylan went through and all i could hear was people screaming and cheering then next thing you know my buddy comes running up. dude you just missed a toyota flop on his side and get back over! pretty good weekend though there was definatley not as manypeople there as there was last year which is a good thing. i got some video and some pictures i will post up later tonight

that was me!  :)   I was soo spurprised i flopped.  It came outa no were.   all of a suddem i was on the drivers side and the engine was still puring like a kitten so i turned it hard drivers side and just crawled back onto its wheels.  I couldn't believe it. Nobody got it on camera or anything thopugh  :(  All my camping crap was in the back and nothing even fell out.  went through pretty easily that night, but not the next day.

I did it infront of like 5 people at most.  Not that many people around the box at midnight.  We were just getting to spider when i decided to take a shortcut right through the box.  Everyone else in my group didn't want to break.  I was a little buzzed and decided i wasn't going to break, so i ran it   :)

Sweet, that would be sick if he got a picture of it.  You get back in one piece Ben?  Did you leave Sunday night?

sure did, jesse's truck was shooting flames all the way back up the slabs though, then grayson broke his rear pinion and had to back out of the trail just past gatekeeper! it was pretty funny. got home about 7 pm.

Is it at all possible that some of the damage is the result of "injected" wheeling?  It may be a good thing that there are pictures to remember the truck by.

Jason and Wentz left realy early Sunday morning.  But Wentz broke the back half of his transfer case, he only had front wheel drive coming out.  They had to run home in Jasons truck and then come back with parts or something.  Jason said he wanted to go home so he left and thought it was funny.  Turney didn't seem too mad monday.

That shows my great spotting talents right there  :)   I was hungover and feeling every bit of it.  I think your wife was spotting better then i was.  All i really did was get people to help push it back over a couple times.  :)

That door is FAWKT! I couldn't even open with my comalong, so I will cut it off with my plasma when I am ready to paint. I will leave it on for now. If I stop wheelin long enough I hope to have it painted before the Roundup?

thanks for the comments guys that trip was the best yet. The 3rd gen is running 10 bolts f/r  :hammerhead: but he brings tons of spares just in case.. sadly the jeep we brought with us on our trip broke a front driveline and blew his alternator at the sharp corner going up from the springs. so the 3rd gen truck (dustin) towed him all the way to the box until dustins frame tore in half! too much slack got on the tie strap and his frame tore right near the steering box. my truck did fine thank god. oh and the yellow truck isnt a four runner actually. its a stretched 85 single cab witha bondo extra cab ish. i got a pretty sweet video of him gettin ghte thing on its tail straight up and down and just sitting there for a few seconds that i will put up on here soon. here is a few more pictures.
