I already posted this on OC Meetups... Figured this site is more active:

Anybody looking for a 1987 4x4 Regular Cab 22R with 65k original miles? Sweet Truck for someone in So Cal!!! He's got it listed on eBay. It will not last long.

What you looking at?

 

Is everyone else tied up in hellweek at work? Lol

 

Careful, he'll open that trench coat up....

 

Lol.

 

Nothing to see here....everyone keep moving.

 

I fell asleep in my computer chair last night... Moved to bed a few hours later.

So I feel terrible today.

 

So I'm going to Vegas for a weekend in October. I'll be leaving LA at like 11pm so I probably won't be able to hit any side trails on the way up, but I definitely would like to get a little 'froading accomplished on the trip back. Can anyone help me out on what areas I can mob through?

 

Telephonegraph rollie pollie road or something like that. @MADSTEEZE knows it well.

 

I forget how long it is exactly but @MADSTEEZE said that the 'Powerline Road' cuts along the 15 for a big chunk of the trip out to Vegas and is all dirt.

 

Is it dirt I can haul ass through? Hopefully my Kings will be hooked up by then, and if so I'll do that haha. Othewise I'm sticking to the road to get their as fast as possible since we're leaving so late at night and I wanna get the most out of my Friday/Saturday there. Maybe leave mid day on Sunday and hit some stuff on the way back

 

He was telling me last weekend that he was doing a pretty steady 40 mph through most of it, and hit a big jump by accident in the dark at one point lol

 

Next install for Alex: HIDs!!

 

In daylight I was getting up to 65-75 in a lot of sections. You can really open it up!

Some washes, dips, and ruts can come up quickly so you'll probably forget to blink unintentionally.

I was averaging about 40 in the dark. Stock lights didn't help there. If you keep good pace, it takes about 2 hours and 15 mins end to end and it totals 91.2 miles. A few sections get slow due to washes and rocks, but I did every bit of it, minus one section in 2wd, all traction control off, and ECT on. Get loose! Honestly, it's a blast!

Probably not best to head back in the late afternoon because the sun is blinding and speed is decreased. Plus the road is not nearly as fun in the dark, it is an experience though.

 

Yes! I legitimately caught like 2ft of air, all 4 tires. Was sketchy when it happened, but I was stoked that the worst that happened was bottoming out for a second and aiming slightly off trail. Corrected and went right back to skinny pedal. Rock n Roll!

 

Yeah I really do need lights, along with a really long list of other shit.

Have to bury my brother first. Still not clear how much of the $ is going to land with me. I'm playing the roll of picking up the slack for whatever the others can't come up with.

Going to Rose Hills tomorrow to get final figures.

 

Is powerline road 2wd friendly?
