Welcome. Well that's a big question. The first thing I'll say is that you have a lot of options. The cost of used toyotas has really reached a fever pitch. Its unfortunate but not the end of the world. Your local market will dictate most of the decision for you based on your budget. Yes...

Those vent valves are super common. Water intrusion seems to be the culprit. Gm put out a TSB for an updated part and relocation kit for the 07-13 GMT900's, but to my knowledge there's no fix for your NBS.

You'll be Happy to have a spare on board if your standard media filter gets soaked. The main thing to consider is experience. Some vehicles have air boxes that will damn well let your filter get petrified before it gets dirty. Others make you wonder if they're scooping pavement going down the...

As mentioned, It really depends where you drive and what an air filter costs for your rig. Some of them are down right spendy. If you're in the desert or caravan on dusty dirt tracks, it could be worth it. My filter costs $22 and I change it once a year. The cost of a snorkel kit doesn't make...

Nah, I wouldn't call you a whiner. Overall, I agree with the sentiment. YouTube is for making money now and "Overlanding" has become a buzz word. It was only a matter of time before the market was flooded with folks who are primarily looking to make a buck. There are good creators out there...

Snugpak Jungle Blanket. Hands down. Not sure if they're still under 50 but I picked mine up for 30 a few years back

Lsd in the rear will be perfect. I am also partial to Eaton's Truetrac. Up front is kinda up to you. If your front axle will have selectable hubs, you can run anything from a lunchbox locker to a Detroit. The world is your oyster. If you have the cash, an air or e-locker is the most convenient...

Chevy leafs are interchangeable from '99 up. Each leaf pack has a rated load dependent upon leaf thickness and how many are in a pack. Most half tons have a 2+1 pack (meaning 2 main springs + the overload spring) rated for between 1700 and 1950 lbs depending on whatever package your truck was...

Hey, I have fond memories of that civic.

You're right, though Toyota has been less than helpful in publishing the exact system parameters. I just wanted to confirm that you were aware of the system. In that case, to answer your question, both air and E systems are equally reliable. No real benefits to one over the other, besides the...

It's a bit late, but doesn't your pre-runner come with the Auto-LSD feature?

Boy, knives are out on this one.

The town in the northeast I grew up in only had 2 paved roads. Much of my daily commute to work and anywhere else consisted of gravel roads. Never did I actually own a set of chains. An aggressive set of winter tires, not studded, and a couple buckets of sand in the back were my weapons of...

Happened across this article while looking for something else. Lots of good info if anyone's inclined. From 4WD Action https://raw4x4.com.au/better-suspension-setups/

I wouldn't worry about having them free floating unless you're cycling over whoops (using them like bump stops) on a regular basis. The daystar cups are like a basket so they align the bag to center on it's way down. No need to worry about them getting sideways on you. On the other hand, while...

I was raised to speak up when I see something. Doesn't mean I have to be rude or disrespectful about it. I expect others to speak up if I'm out of line as well. Dont give if you cant take. Don't do to others what you wouldn't want done to you. In most cases I dont lecture or judge. I also...

@TxJeeper75 I uninstalled the app and then downloaded it from the available updates menu. Make sure that the "What's new" notes in the description dont say July 10th. That is the version you are trying to get rid of

I've got an issue with drive time. I tend to get kinda stoic and burn through. A lot of it comes from the fact that I've never worked a job that gives more than 5 days/year vaca and that time is normally spent on one trip (flight) to see family. So since I only get weekends and a few random...

New patch seems to have cleared up the issue on my end (can't speak for anyone else). Cheers @Michael

I made a note to myself every week to be available for the Sunday call and never ended up being free. Its normally the day I get to check in with my pops on the east coast.
