    Re: Tundra Towing, What and How Much?

    Cheese, that's the set up I plan to get into next fall. Probably a 2004 or so, V8 4x4 and a 14 foot trailer. Something to haul the F-Toy around comfortably. I'll use the 4Runner til then, but I don't...

    Johson Valley, CA - The Hammers

    I am not sure how many of you check Pirate4x4 so I wanted to share. It seems that the Military is interested in expanding a base and perhaps take over part of Johnson Valley, CA "The Hammers".

  9. Sticky: Re: March ARRA Newsletter - Contact Your Represenatives, Links inside

    I got this too. Thanks for posting it.

    We should also turn some attention to the Hammers. The military seems interested in the land. Check the link in my signature.

    Re: Custom 3rd gen Front/Rear Bumper

    You asked for feedback...

    Personally, I don't think the bumpers look that great. Are they made from exhaust tubing?

    Re: Trimming Rear Wheel wells

    I took about 1" off of the body seam at the rear of the wheel well. I also build the rear bumper to have more clearance.

    For the record, my 315's rub the top of the rear inner fender.

    Re: Pros and Cons of Manual Hubs

    I can change my Manual Hub CV in 30 mins or less on the trail.

    Or, if I can get off the trail in 2 or 3wd I don't have to change it till I want to. Hell, I've run the truck for a month without...

    When you remove the oil filter this area usually gets soaked with oil. If someone doesn't do a good job of cleaning up it will look like this over time. Plus, I can see a drip of oil coming from the...

    I think it is recommended to replace the cam seals, crank seal, the 2 idler pulleys and the tensioner at the same time. :thumbup:

    IMO, you shouldn't even think about SAS until you have driven a double locked, low range truck.
