I hear ya if i can get my new engine built and dialed in before it ill be there also granted i dont have any more breakage

 

Well I guess this is a good place to tell y'all what I saw last time I went off-road in Corolla. We were just leaving the beach when we saw some out of towners just about frame deep. We stopped to give them a hand. I asked the man if he was aired down and he said yes. When I asked him what his tire pressure was he said it was full pressure (). Anyway, they were in what looked like a Nissan Rogue. They were only equipped with front wheel drive. As we were airing down his tires to 15psi, the husband was telling us how his wife convinced him to drive on the beach and he didn't really want to. She used the "look at all the other people doing it" tactic . After airing them down and some digging we asked him to try to get out by "touching" the throttle. After his tires spun, he kept "TOUCHING" the throttle until we stopped him. Lucky for us, someone with a newer 2 door wrangler the the 6cyl dropped by to give us a hand pulling them out (we were in a 2 door wrangler with the 4cyl.) He pulled them back pretty far onto the harder sand. After giving them a very brief lesson on beach driving, they took off. Luckily they were pretty close to the exit! I made sure I stressed that he had to air his tires back up as soon as possible. I really, really hope he listened. If he didn't, I can't even imagine what their ride home had in store for them!

 

I didnt air down the last time i went down there for the weekend, since i was on and off the beach numerous times. Truck did fine, just had to work a tad harder to keep rolling. When i did air down back in April i only went down to 35psi (my 35 mud terrains are usually at like 60 so thats still 25psi difference).

Pulled this guy out last time out with full psi in my tires, his right rear was burried, i dont think he has a LS, and definately no locker.

 

I use to never air down on the beaches.... I would always pull jeeps out, they got ****y and ended up sinking their rigs... Oregon Inlet use to be ruff at the entrance.
