    I'm not sure, but I won't mind something easy. I need to scope out some places Friday and I'll know by Saturday.

    What kind of suspension setup are you on? Tires with treads = good. Bald tires = bad. If you have after-market tires and/or wheels, make sure your spare is same size and good condition.

    Sounds good. Let me know.

    Stock suspension and Pro skid plate. Haven't had time to install my Pro suspension. Tires aren't bald but are down to about 3/32nd. I've got another set of wheels with new tires I can throw on for the day if needed.

    3/32 are pretty worn to be out on the dirt IMO

    Straight dirt at speed would be okay but nothing where you really need to crawl. I can throw on the Pro wheels. I wasn't planning to run the tires that are on them but I can temporarily.

    Oh hell yeah. That’s plenty of suspension. Remember, Icon 2.5’s is the equivalent to other shocks’ 3.0’s. :D As long as you’re not on a spacer lift or some Bilstein 5100’s or something, you’ll be fine. We always slow down for each other.

    As for the crawling. This is my first time on any of these trails so I really don’t know what they’re like. But most of it looks really easy. There’s a couple sections that look pretty difficult but we always get through with good spotting. If we can’t make it, we can always turn around. But you’ll definitely need sliders for sure. See if you can get some on in time. Only other things you really need is a full size spare and basic camping gear. Let me know if you can make it. I’m going to start meal planning next week.

    Get those sliders on and let's go!! Personally I'd get a locker over an LSD.

    Man, @Challenger1, this'll be such a great opportunity! I'll wanna be you, if you make it into this trip!!
    Homie don't play! :fistbump:

    You don't need an LSD or locker for this trip. Plus trying to get it done in a week isn't realistic. If it were me, I'd install sliders, skids if you hang and can, then go on the trip and save for the locker.

    You have SO much awesome going on here! :cool:

    I want to SO BAD!! I actually heard you say sometime back you'd try to do a trip over this holiday weekend, and I've been trying to move things around just in case you opened it up. But so far, there's a couple responsibilities I have not been able to jettison. Looks like, unless you guys sneak down to Big Bear, I'll get to meet up with you guys next on the Turkey Run. Got time off and my name on the list with @osidepunker for that one for sure!
