Tellico is awesome.
I did pretty much all of the trails except for upper and lower 2 which everyone that is still up there is doing tomorrow.
The truck did really well, I climbed Gaurdrail, Helicopter Pad and Slickrock unassisted. We had to winch going down Peckerwood which was interesting and up the ledge at the top of Slickrock.
Didn't get many pictures of the truck with my camera and everyone else is still up there.
I popped and tire and bashed in my bed but other than that didn't break anything. The Jeep guys were impressed too, one even told me if he did what I was doing to my truck his would have broke in two :D

I don't know about trail 6, but I watched this guy from Largo roll down gaurdrail, which is like trail 12 or 11.
It was pretty scary. He rolled all the way from the top which is a little further up then from where the first picture was taken and went end over end.

Glad to hear that everything is working good for you. Now regear to 5.29, a front locker, and get some 35" MTRs.

Yeah well I have to fix some stuff first. I bent my trans crossmember up nicely and dented the front diff pretty good. Then it's tire (thinking swampers), gears and front locker.

The T/G SAS kit comes with diff. armor, you did have it on there right? Man the front needs protection up there when you're wheeling the hardcore trails. I've seen dented diffs take out 3rds and it isn't easy to fix on the trail.
Which swampers are you looking at?

Joni was going to go to Telico for birth day in Sept. but after reading up on Telico she changed her mind. She said that she doesn't want to be worried about a roll over and this pic doesn't help me out in talking her into it.

There's a video with parts of it of my truck on Gaurdrail. The clips are kind of short though.
