    Trail Damage

    this is a thread to post the caranage.

    i'm to the point where my dents have dents, and if it weren't for the 3/16" plate armor my junk would look like a raisin now.

    this is my first trip out, i had only made 2 payments on the rig





    a couple months later i stuffed it under a rock wall





    then added armor plate





    the armor plate doesn't keep you from falling over, just from screwing the body up more



    and once i got a cage, i had to make sure it was strong enough



    "will you check all the grease fittings for me?"

    i actually just flopped it pretty hard on this same obstacle last weekend. i was just trying to scare my buddy a little and smashed up the passenger side pretty good but nobody got pix, and now it's in the shop after i blew the trans

    This was from my last off road trip to Wispering Pines. I also messed up my passenger side rocker pretty bad but didnt take a picture of it.

    When Phunkeydude tried to run over a pink Jeep at Sedona, I was at the end of the group. I had to turn around in a tight trail that was lined with brush and trees. The trees pushed back when I pushed them out of the way to turn around. It all turned out good because I got to practice putting bed liner on both bumpers.

    Was on the trail work day yesterday and friday. I took some damage this time of course the running boards got the brunt of it.

    The right side

    Bent the light mounts. I already have plans to lower them.



    My rear driver wheel took a hit.

    Glad I have the lifetime power-train warranty! I would hate to pay to fix one of those.

    The parts on the Jeep TC is not bad at all. The part is only about $ 600. Where if it was a Toyota Land Cruiser, the LC TC is about $ 5000.
