    Suspension ideas for a 3rd gen Tacoma

    Full Agreement... My bad for interchanging Body and Bracket lift terminology. Sorry... I thought it was pretty obvious that I was saying ADS was a brand since I listed it along with Fox, King, Bilstein etc. Also since I started the whole thing by saying he should get a suspension lift...

    Suspension ideas for a 3rd gen Tacoma

    If you are getting 2.5in or less, then they are not absolutely necessary, but will be with 3in or more... Tend to agree. This is ideal, but you can get away with an add a leaf or even stock... Depends on budget. AGREE!!!!!

    Suspension ideas for a 3rd gen Tacoma

    YES on the first part of this... I would REALLY avoid bracket lifts and stick with SUSPENSION lifts. In front, you would need to do something like was mentioned above. 5100's, fox, King, or my favorite... ADS! This will raise your front up to 3in over stock (at least it did on my...

    DIY Power Station Wiring - Help Needed

    My kids recently grew out of one of those little sit-on powered vehicles and I want to use the battery in it to make a small portable power station. The idea is to use a small case to hold the battery and electronic components and to connect a 12V cigarette plug so I can re-charge it from the...

    Looking for places near Bishop/Mammoth to camp and fish streams and lakes

    I assume you know about rock creek? It’s paved, and right off 395, but I hear fishing is ok. I ride it though, not a fisherman. There are lots of back roads off of there though.

    OB Approved Using CO2 on the Trail

    Funny that you bring up this topic. As a former home brewer I have a 5 lb and 20 lb tank. Just bought the parts needed to bring the 5 for airing up.

    OB Approved Water Crossing: Snorkels and Preparation

    First of all, I’ve installed an ARB breather so I’m good either way, but I’m confused... Ok, basic premise first. You have a diff that is in a metal case. It heats up from friction while driving and expands. Right? Heat expands metals... then you enter the water and it rapidly COOLS...

    Actually, looking at this monster heat wave coming our way, maybe I’ll stay home by the pool instead!!

    Utility lights, vehicle/base camp

    Ditto. These are great. Not super bright, but bright enough for small tasks and great for just hanging out at night without a bright light shining in your eyes. Never had one go out on me. They seem to last forever.

    Hot weather camping

    Depends on the wind situation. They have grommets on all 4 corners, so I usually use a bungee cord to lash it down.

    Hot weather camping

    I like to use my grabber space blanket on top of my tent to reflect the sun. Reflects heat and keeps the tent dark in the morning. Seems to be the same material as the tent posted above and is surely cheaper than any purpose built cover.

    off road road repair

    Glad to see you brought a Mattock axe. Those are by far the most undervalued pieces of equipment for trail building (road or single track MTB trails). That and a shovel is about all you need! Oh, maybe a hand saw as well. Maybe...

    On the Trail Cooking

    One of my go to meals is the shelf stable Indian food in a foil pack. There are at least 15-20 varieties and they also have rice packs. They last over a year, require no refrigeration, can be heated in a pan of water or on the engine, and they are fairly hearty. They also take up almost no...

    Can I ask what Philly Steak seasoning is? I grew up outside Philly and didn’t know we had a seasoning.
