    Nice, I used to work in Mcgregor that the big Ferguson Warehouse.

    Im moving to Lorena in a few weeks, I actually still live in Austin right now, but since my income is about to take a drastic hit. 1200 for rent compared to 450 a month sounds kinda nice.:eek:

    The other key to prerunner offroading is floor it and hope your dont break anything

    I was just looking at pic from bridgeport... Their trails seem pretty mild in comparison to BMRA.

    Here is a vid I forgot I had.

    Yeah this is me pulling a dumb ass youtube move. Surprisingly all I got was a few light scratches on the skid plate.

    If you could see what was just out of frame, you would probably call me a idiot for even trying. This is one of BMRAs easiest trails too.

    Oh yeah, the 4x4 dodge couldn't make it any farther than I did in my prerunner :rofl:

    If I get a TRD before yall go to bridgeport, I'm gonna try to make it.

    If you have a good spotter, clearance isn't really a problem on easier trails.

    The problem with a 2wd is when you get one rear tire off the ground... Unless your going down hill, then gravity does all the work.

    Not personally... I think I've seen a place on 820 around the 35 area I have thought about checking out, but I know nothing about them.

    Question: If you buy new rims/tires and don't get new TPMS and don't transfer your old ones over, should the TPMS light be on constantly? I've seen threads that talk about fixing the TPMS light from being on constantly, is that the cause?

    ^^It's really annoying, mine is on all the time because the tires on the ground don't match my spare. I would be interested in fixing this as well.

    It will blink constantly once it loses communication with the sensors. It's easy to transfer the old ones over, the shop installing the tires should be very familiar with it.

    My rims are 5 years old and were not TPMS compatible so they used TPMS straps.

    Avoid 4wp. Do a quick sear on here you'll find a dozen or so threads where they screwed peoples trucks up, etc.

    They have also been shown to often provide misinformation about parts, etc.
