there is absolutley zero damage to my door..the bedliner protected the paint. I bent out the dent so it is unnoticable now...

As far as it being embarrasing...it is a learning device...for me and for others in similar situations...so no I am not embarrassed....I could give an eff about what people say about this incident.

The important thing is noone was hurt and everyone walked away from this....

my x is a machine and can be rebuilt by me at minimal cost compared with the life of someone....my truck will be rebuilt with titan parts...and much better in the end...and I will move on with my life more knowledgable than before...both in the art of wrenching...and in 4 wheeling itself.

oh and front diff flang is ok...the only things that got hit were the DS (at the U-joint) and the spider gears....my R&P are in perfect condition but I am still swapping in an M226 e locked axle.

I mean embarrassing at the time it happened and I only say that because it is how I feel when things are not going the way I?d like them to on the trail. I always feel like I?m holding folks up or doing something wrong in the heat of the moment rather than the truth; that we are all there together. You know what I mean?

I hope you do. I think you'll still have a great time.
