Had a good time today, went to a park on Curlew Creek Rd. It's a smaller area but a fair amount of trails and a nice shaded sand area. Has a pretty diverse range of terrain, sand, mud, gravel trails, hill climbs, etc. Managed to snap a few pics even though I forgot my memory card for the camera. Hope some other guys will be able to make it next time.

Thanks for posting pics Chris, Hope you dont mind but I stole some for my 6x6 thread since I forgot my camera in the car.

I had a great time there today, I really like that spot.

Guess I was a little rough on the Tundra yesterday. I was cleaning it up today and every leaf spring is bent. Lol. The driver front is the worst, looks like the steering link caught it on the axles way up.

@ DSD; I really can appreciate the leaf spring set up for the scale realism but if they are gonna bend easily something needs to be reconfigured ? I didn't see you drive the truck hard or beat it, makes me wonder what the hell you did to bend them.
Go with a 4 link and get that trans up or sideways IMO

@ WMLS; Ditto for you and your Hilux
