    Alice - 2021 4Runner Venture Edition

    If you never did one, their not difficult but on real tight. I've done several at work. There's a lock plate on the rack end that will give you fits if your not aware of it. Setting the toe is easy. I can get almost exact just sighting down the side and lining up with the rear wheel. If I do any...

    Alice - 2021 4Runner Venture Edition

    Good thought on upgrading the rack. My suggestion is based on hitting an unseen stump and bending my tie rod with 32's.Also the web is full of Tacomas and 4Runners breaking stock tie rods doing what I would consider moderate trails. I agree with the "Keep a spare" but Toyota overkills their...

    Bye Felicia

    I think your missing the point here. This was all about leaving the gear on for show while you commute to work and such. Obviously, when your camping, especially in adverse conditions, the gear is stowed properly. I also keep things that shouldn't get dirty isolated in bags or box's. This also...

    Air compressor recommendation - What do you like?

    Two minutes into his video and I've seen enough. We all knew it was a fad and fads dies off. Where I disagree is, it wont die for everyone. This has been my whole life as well as all my friends, it wont die for us. The "Overland Bloggers" are running out of content and now doing the same thing...

    Awesome tire deflator

    Ordered one. Took a while to find it on their site. I've always pulled the valve core when deflating. Nothing more fun than dropping it in silty sand and not finding it.

    Air compressor recommendation - What do you like?

    I ran the VIAIR 400 for since it came out. Probably 15-20 years. Last year it didn't pump as fast. Still works though. I decided to upgrade to the ARB twin. I have friends who have had the ARB for 20 years. The VIAIR took a while to pump up 40's, the ARB was faster but neither overheated and...

    Information on a Winch

    I did Adopt a trail for about three decades. We wore out winch's and cables. It was a must running Rubicon, Dusy and the Hammers. Today I still have one but I haven't needed it in years

    send me a pm so I don't forget and I'll put something together. The route uses common roads so I doubt anyone has it saved.
