All good for the best anyways.
Damn bummer man sorry to hear
where did you find trail pics?anyone have a goggle maps link or anything?Sounds like I may be in for the ride I can wax the piss out of it and should avoid most scratches...
I've done the whole peters mill run with it the only thing I may do next time is remove the running boards
Id consider myself a pretty skilled driver and I like to think I'm very aware of the limitations of my rig...(clearance etc...)
Have you been on the peters mill run? Everyone there had 33's or larger but I made it fine bone stock minus a few minor scratches to running boards from rocks... Just took my time and thought out the best route through and occasionaly stopped to check a rock or water depth.. I would rate peters mill a 3 but my three may be lighter than yours lol
I do have tow package with 3.73 and limited slip with the t/c (can cut off but its usually helpful depending on situation)
Xeek saw it truck through some shtuff at the beach and keep on getting it
Plus if I have my duratracs by then they'll sit at 32/10.50
EDIT- after looking at some trail pics etc I think I'm definitely in on this trip
where did you find trail pics?anyone have a goggle maps link or anything?

so whos all in for this?
I should be able to go now it looks like. Moving the weekend prior but should have most of the work done. Probably just come up for Saturday wheeling though.
Hey Wills05XLT4x4 did you decide on those Duratracs?
Wow, so many questions.
JD, you can shoot anywhere you want to. I would ask that you dont shot while we are running the trail, cause I will be taking my dog and she gets scared around guns, thunder and fireworks. Also, you can shoot at Spikes.
I do not think that you need a perrmit. It has been a couple of years, but there ws no signage and last time I checked no permit was required.
Lbarr, Yes it is the same trail. It has gotten a little more torn up, but if you choose the easy line it is still not to bad.
