easy going trip planned for Saturday to run up Baldi, meeting at the Seldon Tesoro @ 11:00am, test run mostly for my recently "finished" build so won't be getting too crazy. Going to try and be back to the road by 6:00
3 rigs going so far.

This sounds like the kinda trip I'd be in for. Would it be cool if a 1st timer tagged along?


I've got a stock fullsize bronco with 32 inch tires, I also don't have any chains or straps or anything... so I don't know if that would be a problem?

you running mud terrains or similar?
The route we're taking has a couple narrow spots that might eat a rocker panel or 2 on a full width rig.

Hmmm, I'm not sure if I like the idea of damaging the Bronco. It's my Daily Driver and I'd like to keep it in good shape.

I have another 88 Bronc that can take all kinds of damage, but it's not ready for action yet.

May be able to avoid damage if you pick a good line, not sure what the mud situation is back there with all the recent rain.

Which way are you guys going up? I'm assuming you're not going up cable hill yes? I can't think of a spot where you'd get damage that there isn't a bypass for...?

If the weather isn't bad, I may go on the wheeler...

If there's a bypass I'd be set, and my tires have full life on them. Maybe with all this sun it will dry it up nice.

If got some running boards on it atm lowering the ground clearance a bit, but I could always take them off real quick.

I would remove them :lurk5:

do you have any tow points at all in the front?

worst case if the trail looks too bad, park the bronco and ride with someone that has 5 extra seats... MEEEEE! :14:

Yeah that could work out good, How bad is the mud? I wouldn't mind going behind everyone that way if we decided the Bronco sucked, I could just turn around without being in everybodys way... unless there's a lot of turnaround room?

I'd also have the girlfriend so if there was room for her too that would be cool, thanks for the offer! I still haven't 100% decided if I'll go yet...
