We drove that road a year ago in a 2WD Nissan truck. There are parts that are extremely corrugated and VERY rough. Thought the truck was going to shake apart. Anyway, 4WD is not required clearance is and more importantly big thick tires. We had two flats on that road.
Definitely wouldn't recommend it. We tried to do this road on a 2x4 and had to give up after about 40km and turn around because the road was so bad. We ended up heading south along the B1. Way out of the way, but ultimately faster (though far less scenic) if you are in a 2x4 since the roads are terrible. Also, if you get stuck there, you wont find many other cars on the road to help you...
