Yes. Many times it will be 4x4 OK, but carry chains/cables. It is possible for things to be so bad in places that even 4x4 puts them on.

 

Whatever you do, make sure to put a big pile of snow on the roof so on the way down the hill, everyone knows you got in deep

 

Anyone have a driver side spindle????
Preferably not bent

 

but I heard if you leave it overnight and let it harden I can make it back home

 

Anyone not going to TDS but want to hit Anza tomorrow (Saturday)? Lower Coyote Canyon, Calcite Mine, Split Mountain (Fish Creek, Diablo drop, Sandstone Canyon, etc.), and/or Superstition?

 

so I prolly shouldnt go shooting in plaster city this weekend huh...?

 

Anyone looking for wheels?

 

What size tires?

 

285/70/17 they don't have too much tread

 

Should be fine, most people will be at TDS anyway..

 

Free- Cleaning out the garage and found a couple of odds and ends from my 2012 that need a new home.

4.0L air Filter and front air dam flaps(?) along with a ghetto fabbed reusable cabin air filter.

North Park area so come and get them so I don't end up throwing them out...

 

It was dead out in plaster, superstition, Anza Borrego and Ocotillo wells yesterday. Super green too with all the flowers blooming. Couldn't breathe with so much pollen in the air.

 

That place looks nice. I'll have to check it out. Trying to go off roading but nothing too crazy especially cause I have only ever stuck to pavement

 

Saw a few new 17s with dealer plates out there bone stock. I'd highly recommend getting out there in the next few weeks. Only this green every 20 years.

 

I may head out to anza borrego this weekend to hike and check out some trails. What is the easiest trail to stick with? truck is bone stock just got it last week so I don't plan to do anything crazy.
Also what are some off road necessities I should bring?

 

Also anyone know what that trail down in Chula Vista is? I think I remember someone saying thr entrance was near otay lakes. I wanted to cheek that out too.

 

Otay Truck Trail. Entrance is next to Pio Pico RV park out there

 

Awesome thank you!

 

If you are new to off-roading, I would suggest a very important lesson that will make your experience much more trouble free!
First off AIR DOWN!
This will more than double or even triple your traction on all surfaces, I generally suggest airing down to 15psi and avoid hitting large rocks at high speed, or no more than 18psi if you feel uncomfortable with that pressure, but you will be fine with the lower pressure and have a much smoother ride as it also eliminates all the small choppy stuff since the tires are also working as dampers.
I run 12-14psi in my Jeep with cheesy "C" rated tires and run it at over 70 mph constantly without issue over anything, but Im running 33x12.5-15" tires.
And never forget you dont own a trophy truck and have fun!!!

When you are ready for mods let me know and I can steer you in the right direction.
