Looks like you spent some time on Westside road going into High Rolls, NM. I grew up taking that road to Long Ridge to deer hunt the cliffs high above Alamogordo. White knuckle roads with snow and ice!

Yeah I was there looking for snow but it was mostly melted even though it never got out of the 20s that day.
That's crazy.. but I can't tell, did it snap the caliper pins, or the bolts holding the bracket to the axle?
How did you not lose all break fluid?

The guy behind me saw it break off thankfully.
We removed it and clamped the hose and drove another 500+ miles off road.
You lose ABS and any traction control without it.

Check this s*** out.
Somewhere along the line the entire rotor came off the hat after I pulled the broken caliper off.
No idea how this could happen.

Holy crap!!!
It must have been the spacers! See, those things are evil!
(I'm totally kidding, of course)
It’s more amazing it didn’t kill a wheel in the process.

We got to Organ Pipe at 4. They told us the loop took 4-6 hours. We dove in. Took 1.5. We saw no one but a few border patrol trucks.
Beautiful country with a great up close view of the border wall

We camped under Black Mountain south of Ajo.
Looks like a blast. Watch out for the cartel! We all know how much criminal and terrorist organizations like to use Toyota's for transport and mobilization.

Ajo through the Gabeza Prieta was amazing. Zero humans other than Border Patrol.
Out through the Military Range to the north.
