My new-to-me ride I just picked up Friday.
Lets see some full size pictures...
- Thread starter xwerx
- Start date
I've been looking at the Yakima OverHaul HD rack mounted on T slots like this. I know the load rating goes down but does it feel anymore flimsy being mounted in the slots versus direct mounted to the bed? I guess I'm nervous because the rails/slots mount to the bed with clamps and then the Yakima rack mounts to the rails. It just gives me vibes of having a bunch of extensions on a ratchet.

Looks clean! Any plans for it?

Co-Hosted a Rigs & Food event for "overland" rigs. Great turn out for the first one, met a lot of great people and had some really good conversations. Looking forward to doing more.

I got the new (and by new I mean 45 years old) camper put on! I've just got a few more things to do to make it road worthy.

@dfinn Dope GFC raptor setup, I wish I had the guts to pull the trigger on that.
I've had my 15' f-150 platinum for a few years and I'm just now getting it ready for doing something more then hauling bikes to/from the trailhead. My wife and I will be dipping our toes in some light overlanding and off grid excursions starting this summer/fall. Right now, it's nothing more then a mall crawler, but we'll be getting it out for some fun soon enough. Many more upgrades to be made for lighting, on board power, air compressor etc. But it's at least as start.

Take it as an opertunity to upgrade. If your going to off road remove the active grill shutter and throw it away they are sensitive and easily broken and not necessary. Either live with the check engine light or get a tune to turn it off. And maybe install beefer aftermarket grill inserts or make your own. When you have flimsey factory stuff fail i always like to take it as an opertunity to upgrade. Thanks for sharing your uh oh moments we all have them.

I like it! “Run what ya brung!” Anybody with a credit card or deep pockets can buy a 4Runner and bolt on everything they see on a website. If you’re going to bash on a vehicle for hours on end down bumpy washboarded roads, why not make it a used vehicle you trust instead of a shiny $70k vehicle with 1,000-lbs of weight it wasn’t designed to carry? You’re doing it right.
