    Ok time for the fourth and thankfully final part to my series of stupidly long posts of this past weekend's adventure. After the water crossing @Dangerousd1987 @FirstGen Jer and I finished up on 3N16 and headed into Green Valley Lake to meet back up with Tim again
    7cbe5d5d0ceeeac61ef338fe77d80ecc_2dcb7c5c200b1058a0480d9ae26dc8749bba6f2a.jpg
    After meeting Tim though, Dustin had to take off unfortunately. After he took off, the 3 of us made our way back to the dirt and to the true challenge of the day. Along the way we got more fantastic views
    3737b6e3a48acc61e91ebb430dc0bbe7_8b8e3fc541bc70fe0c794a7c0ef8d8dec6b46cb6.jpg
    My favorite view however was staring at Jeremy's sweet ass :jerkoff:

    After a little driving we made it to our challenge, the hill climb section of 2N13D. When we got there though there was a group consisting of a Raptor, a Ram and a stuck Jeep attempting it. While waiting forever for the Jeep to get out decided to take a pic of the Tundra all air down and ready for action.
    d9e11675b341728031e11d780a94ab8e_641e497cb828bd9241b06588b4ffb15309ab8aa7.jpg
    After awhile the Jeep finally came down defeated. The guy came over and described how difficult it gets towards the top and how he believed I wouldn't make it in the stock Tundra. After taking that as a challenge we sent Tim up as a safety net since he had a winch
    https://vimeo.com/167368916
    While Tim made it look way easier than it is, Jeremy and I took the moment to prepare for the challenge ahead of us and decide how to try it. After talking it over I ended up being the guinea pig and going next
    https://vimeo.com/167369250
    After making it past where the Jeep got stuck I parked it and went down to watch and help Jeremy
    https://vimeo.com/167369423
    Once he got to the top I had my friend grab a quick victory pic of the 3 rigs before we headed off to the next section

    When we made it to the next section we found the Raptor stopped in front of a downed tree. Tim broke out the chainsaw and we all worked together to get it cleared. Once it was cleared and Jeremy and I stopped the kid from wrecking his Raptor on the downed trees we continued on to the down hill section

    https://vimeo.com/167370442
    After we made it down we stopped to take a look at the rest of the trail. Turns out there were more downed trees so we couldn't make it all the way up to Crafts Peak and see the view that Tim said was amazing. We decided to pack it in and save it for another time (future TW 4x4 meet?)but not before getting some sweet pics

    https://vimeo.com/167371527
    After we got down Tim headed off to dinner with his neighbor and Jeremy and I went and refilled our tires in Running Springs. While Jeremy aired up I helped him figure put what was wrong with his running lights then we went separate ways. Jeremy went home via hwy 330 and I went home via 2n13 again. Along the way I found one last puddle to gun it through :yes:

    Don't be bummed man. My promise to get you to regret 2wd would've been kept if you stuck around. That hill was NOT 2wd friendly. Jeremy thinks that trail is worthy of a black diamond

    I know, didn't think about that. Maybe go with a rough figure inbetween?

    Nice @kyle11863 :thumbsup:... probabley more Of A Blue trail. Video does not really do it justice and show the worst part with the rock ledge. Fun times though, definitely gave me some pucker factor :goingcrazy:and showed what my truck could be capable of :D

    I would say add the word average in there. That should slightly fix that problem and it'll make the survey sound more official

    Judging by the fact that 2n54 is considered a blue trail and it is loads easier I'd say it qualifies for a black diamond. I mean there is such a thing as double black diamond for even harder trails like in snowboarding right?

    And yeah I know what you mean. It felt great getting up there. I think we really made that guy regret buying that Jeep instead of a 4runner since all three of us made it up there. Toyota ftmfw! :D

    Danny, very much agree with you on that one!!! :eek: Honestly though, I did NOT know that they were that stable "at speed"!!! I must say that I am pretty impressed then :thumbsup: But, yeah, the tires ARE scary!!!

    This one is not even close to 600cc, looks like 50-150cc range.

    I have been thinking about putting a header on my 2.7? I just want a little "bump" in HP. I am NOT looking for any krazy kray kray HP or a sleeper truck, LOL!!! Just something with noticeable gain in HP???!!! Thoughts??? Also, eventually do want to get the LCE low boost, but it does scare me that I COULD possibly blow a head gasket though :boom::notsure: The only thing I am NOT sure of, do I "upgrade" the headgasket as well, or just wait until it possibly blows??? :notsure: I can "hold my own" when it comes to non-modded engines and what not, but when it comes in to modding things, again, mainly engines, then it becomes "dark territory" for me?! :goingcrazy:

    Btw, this is after I get a job :pout:
