    I might have my new tranny in by then, fingers crossed, last time you guys went did you stop at ruby lake or go past it? I haven't been much farther than the lake so I don't know if my rig is capable enough. I've herd it gets nasty back there

    I am all for going the 3rd, also for who asked how bad the trail is up to the lake it isn't bad, my friend made it up in his taco with no lift and small tires. It's after the lake it gets bad, I will venture down there with you guys and do my best though. I need toget my skid plate redrilled and put on though. Anyone else with minimal upgrades going to try it?
