    Ever been out to Five Mile Pass? There isn't too much sand out there but there would be some good trails. It's like 10 miles west of Eagle Mountain. Also If you were headed out to Little Sahara, instead of turning off of HWY6(?) towards the state park, you just keep on heading straight and that's the infamous Cherry Creek Riding area. Its free, lots and lots of trails, sand, dirt roads and trails. I used to go out there all the time. If your headed down to Moab and you want more of a dune adventure, off of I-70 there is a little Ranch Exit just east of Green River (5 miles-ish) turn off there, head south and after about another 5-6 miles you run into 10 Mile Wash(AKA White Wash, Dabinkey[?]) Those were a few of my favorite areas growing up.

    Nice! I'm jealous. How often do you get stuck out there? And how easy are recoverys?

    I didn't get stuck once while we were there. Sure its possible, but you just need to keep momentum up, air down, have fun. Getting unstuck isn't that bad. That one in the picture was the worst of the day and took some winching but wasn't bad.

    Take a shovel, have someone in the group with a winch and a strap and good recovery points.

    Anyone need a larger spare? I have a set of 4 duratrac 265/70 17 taking up space at my house. Pretty worn but fine for a spare to get you home. Free to anyone who wants to pick one/them up. Pics on request.

    I was wondering if by any chance who has a first gen Tacoma and has bought MOOG ball joints and tie rod ends at O'Reilly's auto parts can help me. i bought some moog ball joints there and tie rods awhile ago and its time to change them, but for some odd reason they dont have the info that i bought them so i cant exchange them for new ones i remember that it was a noob that did the checkout, and i never seem him again so im pretty sure he doesn't work there anymore.
    all of MOOG's parts like ball joints and tie rod ends are lifetime warranty at O'reilly's but they need proof that you bought them there. Sense theres no proof they wont exchange them.

    So i was wondering if i can barrow someones phone number so they can type it in and so i can get some new ones, sounds sneaky but i don't think its fair that i bought them so i can exchange them and not being able to do so.

    so whoever willing to help me out PM me your number. i would only use it this one time. thanks

    I had Moog, but I bought them from Rock Auto online, so not a whole lot of help there.
