GOAT1 and I were out @ Pismo last weekend and went too big. Totally cleared the transition & slammed the front end. Well the pics give a better picture of what happend. Unfortunatly there are none airbone.
I was there a couple of weeks ago with the WT club.. It was my last TTB trip before my SAS so i wasnt worried about f#@ing it up.. Got some sweeet air on comp hill.. (think thats what it is called) The biggest hill there.. I was airborne and the landing bent my radius arms, broke 2 ball joints, bent my ttb arms, grenaded a hub etcc etc.. Made it home though..

ditto on that. it doesn't look like you gave it the juice on that pass. was that a recent cut and turn mod or had it been on the vehicle for an extended period of time?!?

The tube didn't shear. It was suggested by some spectators that we were 15-20 feet in the air. I don't have any shots close up but the base metal riped apart not the weld. I guess the bead wasn't big enough......
while on the topic of Pismo I was thinking of doing a long travel kit for the tacoma (18in roughly) I was wondering if you would be interested. email me if you are. Also on Aug 2-3 there is a trip planned to goto the Hammers. Do you want to see if any of the PolyGoats want to go?

I am not :smokin:
If I get a garage next year I am going to bust out my Fj then bust out the Tacoma (I won't have money so I just need someone to pay for parts-I'll put teh lift on their truck) then start my camaro.
Your missing out:beer:
