That's the one! I've taken it on rattlesnake/constrictor a number of times now. My favorite "take it there stock" trail. Forest Lake stock is tricky.
Can't decide if i wanna take it to Mineral Basin without a locker/lift. Seems like good potential for hurting it. I like the body on mine.
This is my 87, new here and new to 4runners so she isnt as pretty as some of yours. Changed the tires since as you can see and got some 34" Swampers, added front and rear lockers, changed gearing to 4.88, and did a 3" body lift, custom made bumpers, added some lights and a wench up front, and added some flairs. Still working on it.
But she gets used
Love the Runner but respect the Dobie!
First post here. I just got my 87 yesterday and I already LOVE this thing. I never thought something with barely 100hp could make me smile so big.
AFAIK: 4" lift (unknown brand) Detroit locker rear with 4.88's and 35's. 225k on the bottom end with a fresh head due to burnt valve.
Bah, Forest Lake is cake.
I did Mineral Basin with a 1.5 inch lift on 31s and one and a half lockers, and I used my sliders a couple times for sure, but it was wet and I was aiming for the harder lines. I think if the trail was in good shape and you picked your lines real careful like, you could get a stocker through there. There's one spot maybe 2/3rds of the way up where you get decently offcamber going up a ledge, and I highcentered pretty good on the tcase mount there, but like I said it was slippery as heck. There's nothing on Mineral that's harder than Radiator Rapids on Constrictor, so if you've been that far on Snakes then I don't think you'd have much to worry about on Mineral. Get some sliders this winter, and we'll hit it up first thing in the spring.
