    I Literally just got back from there. i took Geology to Berdoo out of the park and it was no problem. the trail is easy for a stock Tacoma except maybe for one obstacle, but with a good spotter and maybe a few stacked rocks it's no problem.

    Looking to buy 1 3rd Gen 16" TRD Offroad alloy rim in order to put my full size spare in the rotation order.

    Doesn't need to be cosmetically perfect since my others aren't already...

    So my new place down to the "shop" they only ran single phase! Which in laymans terms means they ran a 2 wire and not a 3 wire system to the sub panel...ugh, using a pick and digging up over 150'+ of trench by hand is going to be nothing short of awesome, ha!
    And I fond a 1' water pipe but it flows like 1/8" something must be stuck in the pipe or I will probably just run a new line instead of trying to troubleshoot the current system.

    Should have my 220v soon, all they had to do was add one more wire, cheap bastards...lol.

    Can you feed a fish tape in there? Or another idea is to add two wires or 3 which ever and connect to the old wires. Use the old wires as the fish tape and pull the new through.
    This would mean no diving at least.
    Edit... add dish soap mixed with a little bit of water and squirt it into the conduit. Use the air compressor to blow lubricant through entire line before doing any pulling of wires.
