Orange County CAF's: up to no good

Plug Or Patch? I have a nail in my front left, which would be better?
Also Hi-Lift Jack, any opinions on which one I should get?

 

Plug and patch my friend. It's a combo tire plug. They work the best. Then put it on the rear axle...

 

Tire shop for a proper patch. The plugs are meant to only be temporary fixes to get you off the trail.

 

Brea is pretty cool. I'd be down to go shoot. Just can't do the next two weekends.

 

Had a very fun and eventful day yesterday. Started off going to Cleghorn Ridge, plenty of small mud puddles throughout and sloshy snow as we got higher up. My friends and I stopped right after a mud puddle I left a minute ahead of them, 20 minutes later I get a call from them saying they're stuck....
Thankfully by the time I get back to them there's a 4Runner ready to pull them out, glad I brought my strap! After several attempts the Ford is finally out!
But the Ford didn't have any traction, so to avoid getting stuck again my friend put his snow chains on, and all of us plus a person waiting behind us were jumping in the bed to get him traction and he was finally able to get to the top and turn around, victory!
Decided to kill time and take a model photo of my big guy

After that escapade we went to Holy Jim in the search of some mud for the Ford, unfortunately all the big mud puddles were gone so we ended up enjoying the peacefulness of the forest at night and had a fun time. Oh and I got a souvenier from Holy Jim last night or on Thursday, a nail to the front left

All in all pretty fun day!

 

anyone know how to look up a Vin that gives all details on a 2000 Tacoma? A family member passed and I need to find out how the truck is worth. In Austin TX. I have the Vin that's about it.

 

Search vin decoder on this web site or google it.

 

Get the 60" so you won't have to upgrade later. It's better to have more and not need it, then need it and not have it

 

Haha I think I have 7 double shots in 30 mins or less of Jameson lmfao needless to say I was on my ass pretty quick but this was after watching your game lol

IM just getting this stared now to spark interest, i will update the list daily with more info and what not


INFO FROM @bjs045
Also, AB is the only national park in CA that you can still free camp (in designature areas). There are reserved camp locations too. Which have shitters and showers. Reserve America website should have what's available.

#1 rule is leave no trace.

#2 you have to bring a fire pit in. You CANNOT dig a pit. We took an old stainless steel washer drum. From the size of this group you may need 2. I bought a mix of Pine and Eucalyptus from South Bay Firewood on Rosecrans in Hawthorne. Bring a shit load 3/4 of my short bed was just wood.

Searched the vin and found it is a prerunner. Don't know if is TRD or not.

 

I think you'd have to take it to the dealer they might be able to tell you I don't think there is any other way to truly tell if it's a trd maybe a car fax?

 

Says SR5 right behind the mini window. Not sure if they ever made SR5 TRDs though.

 

Yeah me neither.

 

Sorry to hear that a family member passed Chan!Truck looks clean though!

 

They did. My 99 Prerunner TRD OR with just under 100k miles. Traded in for 14 DCSB Sport just behind her. Thx for making me dig up this pic. 15 yrs of memories with her!

And I hate that the 2nd Gen doesn't have a locking gas door or cap.

 

Thanks man

Good point
