Durability should be fine, Toyotas been using them since 86. My concern is how it will perform v.s. having a solid axle where you put the wheel on the obstacle & you gain overall ground clearance instead of pretty much just raising the wheel. The sway bar disconnect will help in keping wheels on the ground, but all the electronics kind of scare me a little, but hey I 've been waiting for this truck for decades after selling my 76.

I know I won't be wheeling a lot of the harder tighter trails I use to as it's a good foot+ wider & a good bit longer. (No more Dusy, the XJ barely fit on that trail ) & I won't be out to rag out 50k+ vehicle, but MOAB will be seeing us again soon.

We will definitely keep you posted Rusty.

Damn I should have never given away / sold that truck

I remember that vid. Hey, did you do the full loop on Hell's revenge? Coming out of the canyon gets really tight. I was shaving the canyon wall with the roof rack coming out of there.

Yep Dusy, no place for a fullsize rig. There are so many places like this & a lot that have rocks that pitch you into trees & no bypasses

Yeah, we did the full trail. Have done most of the trails in Moab.

We go out to Rausch Creek every June for the last 11 years. That place got some really tight trails. Surprise the chit out of the Jeepers when they see us on the tight trails.
