Burns Canyon 8-28-10

Yeah the Sandy part you can drive fast enough on..

Just have to put this out there I go here almost every weekend. There is one the night of the 28th..

Star Parties at Joshua Tree Lake RV campground. I don't expect anyone to go. It is awesome and it is free!

 

I think I am fallowing this one up the trail today so if you see me on the news missing you know where I am.. lol

 

ok good i am glad that it is a 2wd friendly drive well i am kinda 1wd lol but still up for it

 

Hey tyler does your PreRunner have elocker or LSD ? (I'm not real familiar with 2nd gens.)

 

no mine is a base sr5 the trd sport comes with the LSD and the trd offroad comes with the e-locker(the one i wish i had) so basically i have an open diff hence the 1wd comment

 

Well I'll tell ya Tyler, I trail all the time with another member here , Matt (ReCkLeSsTaCo) & he has a DC with the LSD & he pretty much goes everywhere the guys with TRD lockers go with no problem, plus the fact that you have the single cab w/LSD is a pretty good combination...

 

oh no no no i dont have LSD i just got i 5 speed i wish i had that i basically have nothing to lock the rear wheels

 

Hmmm, well time for some "Old school" traction gain & I KNOW this sounds whack, but if you get 3 bags of concrete (90 lb sacks) & put one of them next to the left rear fenderwell & one to the right rear well & the last one between the 2 ,towards the back of the bed next to tail gate & air down to about 18 -20 lbs psi you'll swear you have at least limited slip diff (LSD)

true story

 

ha ha ok i will steal some concrete bags from my grandpa(he does masonary junk) and try it when i go to the desert with him(whenever that is)
BUT THANKS

 

Oh yeah , invest in a recovery (tow) strap at your earliest convenience if you don't have one already, I'd suggest a 30' footer

 

OK I will attempt to get one before this little trail run

 

got back. It was a good run. Few spot a open 2wd might have to try a secong time if you go too slow. you should be ok. Bring a tow strap just in case.

this trail is 2wd friendly for skilled driver. preferably 2wd with lsd or locker but you can make it with an open

 

That was fun made it back alive.. I will have a video of Yoytoda up around 11pm (have to wait til my unlimited internet time).. He has WAY more skill then I do.. I would not in a million years go up the hill he went up! He did a great job!

 

oh ya i would like to see it and i am a decently skilled driver off road, but on road i am like a michael shumacher lol

 

Thanks alot!!! i try...

sorry, you would not make this hill. lol

 

ah man what if i put a couple of TRD stickers on my truck??? instant ability to climb anything lol

cant wait to see the vid

 

this hill had me wondering and i have lsd front and rear. I need new tires though.

 

ah i see good set of tires= great fun anywhere

 

I will have the video up as soon as I can.. stupid hughes net!!!
