Hello,
I recently had my eyes opened to the world of 4x4/Overlanding. I'm looking to find a rig most likely the 80 for the solid axles and lockers.....although i wish it where the 100S for the more comfortable rig. I'm a complete beginner and novice and only recently began to research and plan for my own overland vehicle. So bare with me for any mistakes and obvious questions. Nonetheless, I have a few questions.
1. How do you find the trails you've explored in your videos? I would love to make the trek up to norcal (specifically lake alpine from your video) however, im in Los Angeles and the drive alone would be to much time for a quick 2 day getaway. Is there a website you refer to?
2. Do you have on board air? how do you reinflate the tires after coming down from the trail? Never noticed that covered on the site!
3. I've spent a lot of time reading various boards but i'm sure many can relate that the flood of information only confuses newcomers. My questions pertain to:
A. What "todo" maintenance checks do you take into account after you have bought an 80? The thing i'm worried about most is, buying a rig only to be slapped with repair list. Theres only so much you can do when buying from private party.
B. Whether or not to skip a 2.5'' OME and go for a 4'' off the bat to avoid any other future suspension modifications.
Much thanks! I have to say. There is a lot of researching that goes on and I was contemplating whether or not to dive into the hobby but your video/website have sealed the deal for me. Especially your quote from John Muir.
