Well, we had the first Ky TTORA run yesterday, and had a really good time. It was the first time I took my truck on that long of a wheeling trip and I was pretty amazed at just what these trucks are capable of. When I got home I thought my only casualties were the front license plate (just a vanity plate, bent badly during a water crossing) and my rear bumper got a little ding when I backed into a tree (yeah, and I just had driven around it too).
Well I thought my fender to body lines didn't match just right when I got home, but I really didn't think much of it - I figured I was just paranoid. Today I opened the passenger door and got a nice rub of the door against the fender. It is in the lower 1/4 of the door where it hits. I really didn't go through anything terrible, and the worst flexing I did can be seen here: http://groups.msn.com/kyttorafirstrun/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=29 and here: http://groups.msn.com/kyttorafirstrun/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=34
I really didn't come down hard over any of the steps or other things and I was pretty surprised to find that I had tweaked something this badly. Is this common or am I just not as kind to my truck as I should be? Hopefully I can get a friend with a frame / body pulling set up to check it out this weekend.
