It was much more intense from when I was last on the trail 15 years ago. As @Barclay previously mentioned, mild lift with 33” tires and at least one locker is the minimum. We had a FJ 60 with no lockers and that turned a 4 hour trip into almost an 10 hour trip (I think, I lost track of time)...

I need to start by saying that I’m a customer service snob, absolutely! All it takes is one bad experience and I’m done and I’ll do my best to spread the word. However, it is a two way street. After placing a two item order with MetalCloak (steering and suspension parts) I received the steering...

The initial meeting will be at the WLA meetup around 0930 to 1030ish. It would be great if you could make that, GPS coordinates are in the Rally Point. I'll be camping with @Barclay that night and there are some OB friends that will be meeting us in Frazier Park for a day run. My number is 310...

Come to the August meet up and we can discuss it with @Barclay, we are still looking for new locations.

RSVP'd, see you there.

Thank you @FrankRoams and everyone for a great day. When we ( myself Mike and Mimi) left to trail back to BB, we found a full size Chevy pick up buried in sand off the trail. In true OB fashion we strapped to Mike's Jeep and had them out there quickly, they were very happy to be out! I hope...

Perfect

Hey Frank, as a side note, I've been talking with Kent Reynolds ( The OB west Ambassador) about OB meet ups for LA and OC and would like take some time tomorrow to discuss with you.

Hey all, just got up to BB and it's warm/Hot. Just a thought for tomorrow to dress comfortable and don't forget drinks, hats, sunscreen and??? Looking forward to meeting everyone and having a great day!

Hey OC Dave, I was camping there just a few weeks ago. Although Ballarat is a must see place, I would skip camping there, it's just a big open space. Definitely talk with the caretaker (quite a character) and if needed, he has a decent map of the area. Approximately 20 miles from there is Golar...

Thanks!!! I really like the style of the LOD bumpers but beware... In two years LOD has replaced the right side gas can carrier, tire carrier and now I'm waiting for the left side gas can carrier due to cracks above the welds. Basically they can't take the stress of washboard roads when the cans...

Shame, shame, shame. ( truth be told those close to me know I'm a Toyota guy at heart, including my 2012 4Runner as a daily)

Hey...I resemble that!!!

Take a look at TuffStuff4x4.com. I've been using their lights for about one year and I'm very pleased. When I bought them, I was told they're made by the same Chinese company that makes KC lights. Although there's no way to confirm this, it was a perfect match to a KC harness and plug that I...

Here's Riley

I'll be watching this thread. I'm planning basically the same solo trip except after July 4th. My only concern is finding campsites on the way. Good luck!!

There could only be one choice...

I've been watching the Weather Channel

@Corrie -I'm dealing with a sick dog issue but as long as he's okay by then , I'll meet you guys in Kingman Thursday am.

@fj80toyman We could probably start a thread on just the casualties!
