They're clean, they're bush meat. This is what FJCRUSR had to say about the rat meat (add a French Canadian accent):





TCAO and I have some insight on that. Toyota changed the rear differential manufacture in FEBRUARY 07. So a build after that date will have the new, softer gears that will give and take better. The earlier gears are harder and are better suited to pavement. They usually break when you "hop" the rear end. THIRDMEMBER was taking a much harder line than we took up over a ledge (climbing) and in order to get the back end over he gave it the gas and the rear end "hopped" over. When it came down, 9 teeth snapped off the rear diff.
Note to self, don't spin hop and drop and lock in my FJ, or possible BOOM may result. Thanks Larry. I still can't believe you really made bushburgers that's killer.
