Well....I didn't get to do the this trip last year. I'm down here again this year and committed to making the trek. I talked to a couple Rangers and they recommended running a low tire pressure to minimize the chance of tire damage. Does anyone have a good tire pressure to use for a GMC 2500 Duramax with Michelin LTX A/T, LT265/70R18, Load E tires?
Tacoma 4WD double cab with P265/75R16 BFG KO2's here. I drop down to 18 psi on rocks and to 16 on deeper sand. I wouldn't recommend anything below 12 due to the risk of blowing a bead.
If you don't already have one, I'd also suggest a decent 12V compressor (ViAir, MasterFlow, etc). With tires the size of yours, a higher quality unit with alligator clips rather than a cigarette lighter plug will have a much better duty cycle. A good tire plug kit and the knowledge to use it is another recommended accessory. It may be overkill but, when travelling in more remote areas or for long distances, I carry a second spare for both the truck and the camper.
Please post back here or PM me with details of this track. We'll be in northen AZ and southern UT for about six weeks starting in mid May and I'd like to do this same trail. TIA.
