hello all im new to the group and have been dieing to take my truck off road and see what it can do. so i was wondering if you guys think an 04 tacome prerunner TRD with BFG A/Ts would be able to handle the trails with you guys. its 2wd but has the E-locker. see my post in the newb part for pics
The desert stuff would be okay but not this type of wheeling. Perhaps the best thing to do would be to see if someone can take a pasenger so you can see what it is all about. That way you don't get out there and either damage the truck or have to turn around. Sometimes it is fun to ride along and see other people beet on thier rides anyway.

What about the loop we did last year after the Smuggler's Run? I remember that being kinda challenging but only because I had to dodge rocks because of how low I was....

I actually would not mind the Corral Canyon thing at all. If we have to give a tug or 2 or even 3 it would not be the first or last time. Hell I towed a rig for over 20 miles of trails once with my 4Runner.
That is totally doable in my opinion.
Oh for the love of God.... I just read your profile drafn. An HM? You fickin Docs! LOL. My wife is an HM also.

Eric,
Just checking in for the first time in a long time. I would love to make it but I have prior obligations. Do you plan on doing another to Corral Canyon soon, say in about three weeks or so? If not, maybe we can put something together? (side note) Did ya ever get those coils in?

Remember to park facing up or down hill this time, not perpendicular to the slope!

Sunday it is guys!
Just works out better that way. If this is not the best timing for everyone, I think we still have a few weeks to a month before it gets crazy hot out there and can always do a Sat run also ASAP.
Meeting place is the Alpine Carl's Jr (just off the I-8 at Tavern Rd Exit).
Meeting time is 8am.
From there we will go to Corral Canyon and see what it has for us after the Horse Fires. This is the first Yotatech crew trip there since reopening so it is sort of a gamble since there is not that much info out there yet.
After doing what we can at CC we will head back West on the 8 to the Tavern Rd exit again and do Carvacre.
As with any San Diego Crew run family and friends are welcome, no drinking on the trails and we will be Treading Lightly! No off trail excursions. It is the only way we wheel and the only way to keep the trails we still have open for our use.
Mr Anthony, You are welcome to give it a shot with the TRD Prerunner for CC and if you would like you are welcome to ride shotgun with me for Carvacre. It is completely up to you. We will just tuck you into the middle of the group and see how it goes.
Please bring Digital Cameras for pics while we are out there.
I will also put the meeting/time info onthe first posting in this thread.

Hows it going? No still have my worn out Saws under the front. Still have not decided for sure what I want to do yet. Too bad you cannot make this one.
Good to hear from you!

But of course you can. Need any help. You know Me likes to wrench. The only thing I may do to mine is wire that TRAC/VSC/ABS switch. THat way I can play in 2wd also. Should be really easy.
Did you find the parts for rear links? I was gonna say did you find your nuts for your rear end but then that would sound stupid.
Nothing new there!
