Man that was an awesome trip. It was so good to get out an wheel with everyone again.
Too bad you couldn't make it Mikey and Seth, I guess that means we'll have to go back and wheel there again to make up, darn it.
Maby next time we could go the other way, I think it would be cool to drive up heartattack and the squeeze.

I think the next weekend trip will be to the Superstitions--maybe early Jan after the Holidays.
Lets hit up Carveacre or Corral Canyon in the next few weeks, or both.

Is it that tight? Do you have chips and whatnot?
I've never been on those trails, and from the looks of your rig you're not goetting too beat up. I'm not afraid to have a couple branches drag on it, but I definitely don't want to be leaning against a rock wall yet.

If you hit the easy trails in corral canyon all you will get is brush and tree scratches. But some of the other trails like Bronco or Sidewinder, there's more chance of getting rock bites.

Aw shucks guys...
Yea most of the specs are in my sig. I'm using the 4" all pro springs. The only thing different from the All-Pro kit is smaller shocks and stock '85 bumpstops for more up travel, and the shocks (10" 5150's) still have more downtravel at max droop of the spings. It gets the job done.. You could get even less lift with smaller shackles from Marlin.
Hey anyone down for a day trip on Friday the 25th (Nov)?

Sweet pics!!
We deliberately missed the squeeze cause we worried the 4th Gens might be too wide. I see a new Taco can do it, so we would have been fine. The Taco is an inch or so wider than a 4th Gen.
On the list for next time then.
