Its just wheather or not you care about the appearance of your Yota.. its not one of those easy trails u take stock rigs on.. may be doable but with a winch, everything is (in theory)

Take a look at past reports man. Last time we went, 4 out of 9 rigs broke down (5 if u count my hub which I just found out is blown)

Just a heads up

I have done that run with stock rigs and with some very careful spotting, you can make it through the trail OK. The key words being very careful spotting. Personally, I would not want to take a rig through that trail without better than stock skid plates or sliders at the very least. It isn't a real "stocker friendly" trail.

I second the not care part. The longbed powerstroke I spotted through had a good bit of damage, but he didn't care.

Somehow my POS stocker made it at least back down to the pavement, too. I have managed to break quite a bit of junk on that trail over the years, but I have managed to break junk on almost all of the harder trails...Funny how that works....
