Day 4: Couldn’t continue with toe so far out of whack, tire was squealing around any left turn. Found a place that allow us to work and I was finally able to get the toe in by eye to get the steering straight enough. Got to the hotel and waiting for everyone else to arrive.

Damn! Did you open a buy back case?

Buy back case?

Buy back case?

It's another thread on here. Bad joke.

Even with the problems, it will be a trip you will never forget.

Merely a scratch. No claim, will pay out of pocket to fix. It isn’t that bad in my opinion. Cost of having fun.
I continued to off-road in Baja, that wasn’t going to stop me! I just didn’t have 4x4. I was already ordering parts while at the hotel in Baja so they would be waiting for me when I got home.

Day 5: this was a leisure day at a couple of beaches. We took a boat out to a hidden beach and saw dolphins on the way out there, jumping out the water right by us! There is a video of the entire trip, will post that at the end where you can see the dolphins, don’t have any still photos.

Day 6: went into Loreto to see if we could get it aligned. Waited over an hour for the alignment tech to tell me that the raptor is too wide for their equipment. Take another try at adjusting the tie rods myself and have to say, got it near perfect. Rest of the group went up the mission and went off-road that required 4x4. So myself and another drove to Scorpion Bay to meet up with everyone else later that evening. Got some pictures from their trip to post, mine are boring for this day. Just showing a GPS location map how far south I got.
