Dune-n-taco

Has anyone taken out a 4x2 out to the dunes? Imperial Dunes for instance. What would I need to make my 09 Dunable? Tires, Lift, intake??

 

4 wheel drive

 

Well I took it out a little with my stock wheels and fully pumped up, and it didn't do too bad. I really think I can make it ride good with just 2wheel

 

my 2wd drive handled great in the dunes.... just keep ur momentum and lower ur tire pressure to around 15.... and when u do stop, make sure to stop on a little hill slant... these trucks are beasts!

 

I was just gonna bring up your name tacoskim, he said it right. what are you planning for your truck as far as upgrades?

 

Yeah I have a lot of experience already in the sand. Been going there since I was 13 or something.(im about to be 21 bytheway) I want to redo my bumper, I dont think a bullybar would do it. I really have no idea exactly what to do. Suspension lift, tires.

 

just depends what u wanna do.... i rode it with stock suspension and handled fine

 

I dont think a bullbar would be a great choice you end up losing clearance, i would pretty much reccomend what im running, N-fab light bar, im not saying go buy what i have but some adjustable coilovers and some new uca's would be an awesome upgrade for the desert fun. and dont forget the rear suspension aal and some rear resi's just an idea im ready for ocotillo wells again i should do alot better.

 

i cant wait for the next ocotillo meet, learned so much since then!

 

Most definately! I learned alot as well.

 

yeah that sounds real nice. I was going thru the forums and that sounds good for suspension. im about to check out that front end. Are there any mod chips or something to add some horse?

 

yes http://www.urdusa.com/index.php?cPath=66_72&osCsid=990fjs5d07146uorn0a0c8col7 do some research

 

To the op, your truck will do awesome in the sand - but be careful @ glamis (imperial dunes) if you've never been. I've seen dudes roll trucks out there, and it can get pretty hectic with a 4x2 in a lot of spots..

 

nevermind i just read your other post - you know what its like, i'm sure you'll do fine with your taco =P

 

Oh and don't try to climb old's. I couldn't get up it, even with 4x4. the taco lacks the power to pull to the top (stock anyway)

 

ive never been there.

 

oh. thought you have.

well now you know

 

Olds is a huge hill.

 

i got about 3/4 the way up olds and had to turn down

 

now im definitely going to check it out.
