Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
My rails saved my bacon plenty of times. I'll sand them down a bit and rattle can them back to new.

Don't think we were that far to the North.

IROKs > ALL
IMO, there isn't a tougher, more capable tire for this kind of wheeling. My wheels took some abuse, but not as much as I thought they would. Wheel protectors are on the list of things to make.

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
Barely even a mark on the tires. After watching my tires grind around & off of all the rocks I was sure there'd be some kind of tears on the sidewalls.

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
Bumper held up like a champion. Somehow I did manage to slightly bend the center piece of 1/4" plate. Think it was on The Big Suck Sluice.
Again, a little sanding & rattle canning and it'll be good as new.

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
The Rubicon doesn't like when H3s try to come through with Line-x on their rails.

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
Again, great pics!!.......I wonder if a stock FJ/KY can survive the trails in one piece.

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
The Rubicon definitely doesn't like fender flares either.

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
"Doesn't like" might not be a strong enough term. Hate might be better.
If it weren't for all of the extra rock-stacking those flares would be completely gone.

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
I think there's little pieces of bling scattered along the entire trail.

Where's everyone else? Did you just leave them behind since they didn't need spotting?

Even the 3's weren't immune to getting Rubicon rock autographs.
