Curious if you guys think I'll make it
I'm going on a trail run with some guys from the socalfjcruisersforum
It's Carvacre Trail/Pancake rock located in San Diego... I'm pretty sure I'll make it, but when i see pictures... It makes me fear for my dif's life :p
does anyone have any experience on that trail with a 1st gen runner or the pickup counterpart?

sorry if i picked the wrong topic.. I thought it applied to toyotas in some way :p

Id say go for it . looks like your rig if fairly capable in your avatar . And I read the link you posted they seem to think its fine for stock rigs with out running boards. I see you have anice bumper is there a winch in that bumper ? A winch is always the ace in the hole . have a fun and safe trip

if your going with a few able trucks youll be fine.. if someone gets stuck you can help each other.. a locker and some gears should get you any place you want to go.. anymore youll be into needed a cage lol
have fun and if you dont feel comfortable at an obstacle there is usually a "easier" way around for non buggys

I'll post up a "trail report" in the correct category when I'm done. I'll have my go pro and some stills. gettin pretty stoked.

Its gonna be a blast . You won't hurt your diffs unless your just a maniac behind the wheel and that runner is too nice looking to be "that guy" and ruin it lol . Be safe and go slow you will be fine I'm sure . Looking forward to your trail report when u get back !
