Yeah that's from a different day, when a dude cut me off and slammed on his breaks.

Dude, that happens to me all the time. I have learned to be a very defensive driver. Last week the family and I were on vacation and while touring around I had three different people at three different times (within 20 minutes) cut me off and slam on their brakes. It really put me in a bad mood that day. The only bright spot was that I didn't hit any of them. To make matters worse I have the old style rear drums, so it doesn't stop that great. I don't know what year they started with rear disks on these trucks but they are a big improvement.

As much fun as that looks, I think I'll just stick to mud running. I'd rather get stuck in a few feet of mud than smash my bumper or rocker panel on a huge rock. Seems like there's more chances of doing some serious damage with this kind of off roading. But hey, whatever floats yer boat!

Nice rig btw, what exhaust setup do you have?

So they kept that for the third gens, lucky bastards! After now driving new cars with all wheel disk I can really appreciate it.
