    Awesome, so that's where my brake fluid went.

    Yeah it looks like a pretty weathered line. I gaff taped the shit out of it for now while I go hunt down a cheap replacement in the meantime, stainless steel ones just made the top of the list. Topped off the fluid and will keep a close eye on it.

    I still need to install my rear SS extended line...and do fronts. We should do a brake line mod day at my place.

    Has anyone done Claw Hammer in Johnson Valley? I'm going to take the Tundra out there Friday morning with a guy with a 3rd-gen Tacoma that's solid-axled on 40s. If anyone wants to join, let me know.

    I guess I'll be pivoting off my sliders a lot, sliding down on them, and hopefully getting to test out my ghetto welds on my rear bumper as I hit it on shit.

    rear steer and a front locker would be a good mod for you

    I'll only go front locker if I can spend pennies on RCV axles.

    Also, are the turns on Claw that tight? Haven't done too much rock crawling lately but there were some tight turns for my truck on Sidewinder in Corral Canyon that I made through just fine.

    yes, there's tight 90° left with a rock wall on the pass side and large boulders on the driver side less than 10 yards above where my fisrt pic is and other stuffs. Its loose sandy off camber to climb out to the top as well

    Sounds like we need a tour guide like you help us. I think the guy I'm going with is getting someone from Rockslayer to come help, too.
