    I was open too at the time. My concern is driving all the way over there for just citrus is kinda bad. Maybe if hard rock or onf was part of it too

    Yeah I wouldnt drive across the state just for a day trip. Maybe if it was the whole weekend it would be worth it. Hard rock is def worth it though.

    Ball joint spacers and lift blocks, am I doing it right?
    Sounds good, I like Hard Rock. Let's get a preliminary date set so everyone with a far drive can plan to attend. The 12th, 19th and 26th work for me.

    That could be because we had a 2WD guy as a trail guide. I've heard from Chris that the south side of Stage Coach is brutal as hell...as in Jeeps on 40s having to struggle. I dunno if that was because of mud or if it was something else, but it might be worth checking out.

    Honestly, we might have to split the group up into 2WD and stock 4WD guys so the more capable 4WDs can go find the tougher spots. I think Chris is very familiar with the area so he could probably get us to some good spots if he goes.

    I second the motion. :D We just have to make sure he goes. He doesn't live on TW like the rest of us, so he may not have seen the meet thread or my PM pointing it out. Mike, Guy? Either of you have his number? I'm pretty sure Thomas does.

    I don't have it, but I'll see if Thomas will let him know. Josh "Goomba" knows the Forrest really we'll too, for that matter I have most of the good spots GPS'd except for the stuff south of stage coach.

    if theres some actual "tough spots" citrus i'm down cause following a row of 50 2wd tacomas driving on flat dirt roads and stopping at little hills(not hating on anyone) was pretty miserable. I wanna do the pits but I had fun with you guys so i'd like to do it again.

    I'm gonna see if the jeeps guys around here wanna do the pits soon. Are they at hard rock or ONF?
