i was just watching a video about the cavitation problem on some diesel. I had no idea that was a issue. Doesn't matter to me what time you make it. i'm planing on being at camp around 3 to 4 .Might have a few runs i need to do on friday. I also need to get one they have them at big 5 last i looked.

Added Gps track to camp from north and south https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WbjLUhC_N-cAKDNXZ4uvuy71m6QX6sxN/view?usp=sharing

i went a pre ran hi mt road no overhead clearance problems .

If its on road i would be tempted to do a 1.4 transferase gears but if she's struggling on the rocks diff gears are the way. Ashcroft has a ratio calc that helps https://www.ashcroft-transmissions.co.uk/calc/ratio_calc.html Looks like 4.37 would be about the same as it was on 35's and 4.11. I ran 4.11 on 33's so that would be about the same as 37;s on 4.75. Back in the day 4.75 used to be weaker but not sure if thats still true. Maybe ask Ashcroft.

Is the RRC going to be ready?

Yea thats not bad . im still looking into a few spots .found few homes on Airbnb right near event that might work if a get two room mates about 270 a night for a 3bd house. Just need to make sure i have trailer parking.If not maybe the KOA next to event

Yes I'm going to post up on SoCal forms about the trip. One of the big issues were going to have is we have to get to the dunes early in the morning on Saturday they seem to sell out by noon.

already have it in my calendar and up to be a trail-leader . so far my plan is to leave my trailer on the Tahoe side.

Well this has tured into a week project due to ordering parts but had the rear timing cover gasket start to leak coolent.i let my gard down and thought i finally had her all fixed.

Hey everyone planning a trip to Oceano Dunes for May 14-16. Due to Covid the State park only has 100 campsites and are already sold out for the next six months on the weekends . So thinking we could camp either at Hi Mt campground or Lake Lopez . Hi Mt is about 40 mins from the dunes while Lopez is 20 . HI MT is in the national forest and is complete dry camping and should be quite while Lopez is a county campground. Let me no what everyone thinks. Now if we go midweek we could camp at the dunes.

As you know i run the Kanati mud hog .More of a desert tire then a full on rock .it has worn well but not as sticky as i would like.. Only thing i would be worried with a sticky tire would be breaking something.Also i run a race tire (sticky) on my bug and only get about 2k miles on them.

Have fun everybody
