Post some pics of your truck. I'm still pretty new here too, but this is an awesome resource for repairs and mods, and pretty much anything else you can think of. Familiarize yourself with the search function at the top, and I guarantee you can find just about anything you need.

Welcome to Yotatech. Good to have another San Diegan on here. We actually (SOCAL) have a great group that seems to do a decent amount of trail runs so you will have to come along.
All out trips usually say Socal in the titles.
