My trim is a little dinged up from god knows what but the glass was replaced right before I got it (broke 2 months later) but under the trim is still good. I did not have my rust issues in the same locations as yours. mine is along the rear fender where they put that ugly chrome trim. trim is gone now but the rust aint. gonna cut those out anyways to make room for bigger tires

Wow I dont have any rust. I dont have any trim either around the windshield. Never had trim of any kind sense I bought it. Its hard to see in that pic. but i dont have a better one at the moment. I would just clean the dirt out deal with any surface rust. leave it with out trip, looks fine to me.Well that is some drive and you would not be the only one wanting to do it. VANCE164 wants to make if from Washington. If you really really want to come you may try to hook up with him on the way south. plus 91_TOYOTA_4X4 you will love the cali weather. DONT BRING POT, YOU WILL GET CAUGHT. then you would never be able to come south to do the CON.

hahaha well it looks like i have to get some money together and maybe a aussie locker do you think i could make it through the trail with a stock yota, 31" muds, and a rear aussie?

lol every time im down i cali its supper nice i love it there. Yeah i wont bring any pot lol. its not that bad of a drive realy, longest i have driving strait before is 8 hours and its should take me 14hrs of strait driving. if i can get my buddy to come then he can drive the other half and we can drive non stop woo hoo. hope i can get some money together

MaK92-4RnR

just bring your passport, and clean out your bed box, put all your in there. maybe we can fix the hole in your floorboard for s sake... lmfao

i would think a stock yota can make it. I am going to go out there and finish the tail. last time i was out there i did not have the chance to finish. I want to document the trip so i can prove a stock yota can make it.

Keith, My brother also wants to come and be a "designated photographer" so we'll have tons of pictures and videos of everything... sound good?

John101477

yeah I think everyone brings a camera. I have a heck of a setup but I am always driving so.... but I will have to stop time to time to get certain shots if i think they will sell.

dark_fairytales

well that is what CB's are for. I wont be in a hurry and i know everyone will be in awe of the pics to be had. Im sure we will be stopping alot along the way. I dont mind and im sure no one else will mind either, it not a race.

91_TOYOTA_4x4

haha yeah mak who is gonna fix my floor boards? u haha . i now have a highlift jack, shovel, axe, 30' tow strap, and a cb radio that i cant get to work??? should be good to go

its going to be tuff for me to make it, it 1500 km's each way, about 3 tanks of gas each way, i need to pay my insurance at 175 a month and i want a aussie locker before i go down there. and im still looking for a job so prey for me lol i am going to try realy hard to make it guys

MaK92-4RnR

91_TOYOTA_4x4

let me know when you do this. i might wanna tag along for the pre-run. that way we can figure out exactly what/where the difficult stuff is at, potential rest/camp areas, side/nearby trails, etc etc. maybe i'll even sneak out the 100 since it's open/open - that should give a good idea for non-lockered folk although it does have 33s. i'm just worried if the trail gets too tight like you mentioned - you shoulda seen my face when i went through the bear valley loop last summer and pinstriped the crap out of the rig with all the overgrown manzanita out there. oh well, guess it shows that i actually use it for something besides going to the mall, i just don't wanna be sandwiched between some trees.

dark_fairytales

it would be cool to bring the 100, but i would advise aganst it. the trail is really that tight and narrow. you will notice, other than us the only other people out there will be on bikes and quads.

on the pre run, Im going to try to not use my arb in the rear and only have one front hub locked to simulate open diffs. as close as possible. there are some ground clearance issue but most are vary minor for a stock yota. I have only seen one obstical that shows any real challenge and i have posted pics of that. I still believe that a stock yota can make it with good spotting and maybe a strap.

MaK92-4RnR

you know... since we might have people coming from different states, why not make this trip a little more adventurous and camp up there? with all the trucks that could be going, that'd be a chill ass time. traditional big ass bonfire and some smores haha
