    Alright thanks, that's why I figured I'd ask haha. The main reason for the trip was to kayak anyways so just figured I'd see if it was worth doing if even feasible haha. Thanks again.

    Yeah mine with a locker, 3" lift, mt's and a winch was the only way I'd feel comfortable lol. Clearance and the grip was the biggest part

    Once I save up the cash I'm planing on getting a 3in lift and some 31's with more grip. I'll probably feel a little more daring then.

    While I'm at it any good forest service roads worth driving on? I enjoy driving around the ones in Pisgah national forest.

    I needed up getting called into work this evening so it became a no go. :annoyed:

    We rescheduled for next Monday. I'll make sure to get pictures!

    I'd love to go to a meet with you guys, just figured 5 luggers weren't accepted as they're kinda the redheaded step children of the tacoma family haha.

    Got the front handles on.. Went on fine. 10 minutes and they were done.

    Onto the back, I have one screw on the drivers side that is starting to strip and won't come out. And I have one on the passenger side that's holding the handle on and they will not come off. :mad:

    I'm stuck with ideas. Any help?

    That's not rust by the way, it's pbblaster
