2wd BS and SoCal meet ups and Tacoma fun

@13tacosport

 

Thx man, you’re a good dude! Let’s see if these guys and gals can direct me to some 2wd friendly trails or fire roads less than 60 miles away from Glendale Burbank area that are fun to hit up for a day or half day and mess around in some mud and water crossings with scenic place to introduce my truck to

 

We have to get rain for there to be water crossings
I posted a few fire roads in the LA thread that are the closest.

 

Hitting up Del Sur Ridge tomorrow, let’s see how it goes

 

@eon_blue Ryan any pointers or don't do that!! out there for him on this trail/road?

 

Just got back and man was it fun! Hit up lots of side trails and just one part I couldn’t go up, but better/newer tires and it shouldn’t be a problem! My buddy brought the 4 runner, 2013 trail edition 4wd.

 

One more

 

Can I do Cleghorn if I stick to main fire road?

 

Yes.

 

Hell ya I’m going to Cleghorn next, but new tires first!

 

Let me kmow... I will try and make it out

 

Sounds good man, hopefully in the next month

where in LA are u

 

West side near 10 and 405

 

Probably around one my fav places! Hu’s Szechuan, haven’t been in years and I can taste the crispy orange beef now wow lol

 

I have done Cleghorn and several of the off-shoots -- in my 2018 Off Road.

 

I would only suggest off chutes in a 2wd if you have armor and and a recovery 4wd.

 

ya i only risked it because my friends 4 runner has 4wd and hes got straps and a kit to pull me out. ill stick to main fire roads and easy off shoots. thats plenty of fun for me.

 

quick question on tires, i have pathfinder 285/70/17's AT tires that came with the truck, yes i know, crappy tires. I want to get same size BFG T/A K02's, or Nitto terra grapplers, or nitto ridge grapplers, which of these 3 would be more beneficial for me in these situation.

 

There have been serious balancing issues with bfg. The problem with some of the off cutes start of nice and easy and turn into...... OH SHIT!where can I turn around, oh I can't and backing up is just stupid.
