Trasheroo Installed 7-22-2017 Bought this years ago, but never got around to putting it on. I have trued unsuccessfully for the past few weekends with no luck. I know they say on the FJ Cruiser to cross the straps at the top of the tire, but I could not get it to work. Plus I have two sets of...

"Oh Hey There!" 25: Roof Racks

New Yellowtop, and airing out the roof top tent I started out years ago with an Optima Yellowtop, and it lasted maybe two years, I think it was a bad one from Cartoys. Had Les Schwab seven years ago put a Redtop (Redtops are a starting battery, not a deep cycle one for fridges and accessories)...

"Oh Hey There!" 24: Exterior Lights

Waxed the rig on the 4th Many who have seen my past pics and vids know that I used a Porter Cable 7336 orbital sander for waxing my rigs. Last year I cut the cord and picked up the Ryobi 18v lithium orbital sander. I had to apply heavy duty Velcro to its backing plate, then the red Griots...

Added an Adventure Tool Company Map Atlas Case to the rig https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/coreys-2007-toyota-fj-cruiser-build.2257/page-5#post-116120

Adventure Tool Company Atlas Map Case 7-1-2017 I needed a nice case to keep my atlas in to protect it, and I remember seeing a nice one on Adventure Tool Companies website, so I ordered one, and it showed up this past Thursday. As with anything from Adventure Tool Company, this Atlas Map Case...

"In The Shop" 02: Dave Harriton's Brute Double Cab

My bad, I just checked IG, it was Bomber Products on the ferry too going to the Canadian Overland meetup.

"Oh Hey There!" 23: Battery Systems

I think Tembo Tusk or Krazy Beaver Tools was going there too, saw a post on Instagram this morning of a shot on the ferry.

Added new patch today. https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/morale-patch-collecting.433/page-25#post-119877

Put a Sonoran Steel patch out in the rig today. Have around 55 patches now, hard to fit into one picture with the lens on my Canon Rebel T5i, shot this video with my HTC One phone. Lotta $$$ tied up into these things, figure around $5 to $10 and higher for each patch.

Most patches I buy have the Velcro sewn in. Some others I have had to apply the self adhesive Velcro to the backs of the patches.

"In The Shop" 01: Clay Croft Ultimate Tacoma

Actually this was done on Sunday, but I just got the pics online yesterday. After a long wet winter, I took Chuck out of the spare room and put him out in the rig ready to serve camping duties before too long. This is the chuckbox that Pat built for me back in 2010. One day I may go with a...

Most cool indeed.

New Hood Compass graphic 6-6-2017 Well not me, but a local shop. I decided to leave the big graphics to the pros. I can do a small diecut, but after two weekends ago fiasco putting one on, I decided to have a pro shop make me one. This is much better quality than the one from amazon, plus it...

New Hood Compass Graphic 6-6-2017 Mucho better! I talked with a local graphics/sign/vehicle wrap company last week, and I stopped in Friday to show them my butchered job I did on the Amazon compass decal. He said they could not really fix it, and while it was OK quality, it is not as good as...
