You can protect it from degrading with UV coatings but it's still going to get weak when it gets hot from the sun. Ever think about white for the pop top and the rest of the roof metal? I've read some studies that there can be over 50 degrees difference between the temp of white paint and...

If the truck lived with these blocks you can be pretty sure the owner soft-pedaled it.

Exactly describes the Falkens on a fella's Tacoma at work. May still work OK but they look like cr_ap.

I bought the AT3s based on the comparo. Good on and off road and quiet but were hard to balance and take a cold set every night, bump bump bump 4-5 miles every morning. Others have reported same. Wasn't mentioned in the test.

What's the engine maintenance schedule on these? Timing belt or chain?

Nice Zuk, I've got it's twin! When we got this '86 in 2003 it had 93K and was stone stock with the same graphics. We just got back from a hike to some ruins on top of that little mesa in the background. Enjoy it, it will go like a goat stock and only get better as you mod it. We kept ours...

Thanks for the report, looks like a nice quicky weekend run. What happened to the Dodge in the first pic? Mileage on dirt?

Uber seems like the only word that works. FYI clicking on the photo lets us look through your whole album, may not be what you want. Photobucket defaulted to open sharing last update, you have to change settings for privacy.

Wow, your Sub is exactly the stance and look I'm going for (as soon as the Xterra is gone). The wheels are a nice change from the current black craze. Only thing I question is the K&N, there's just so much evidence that they let more dirt through into the engine. Used oil analysis show...

Wow. 23 pages of a female trying to buy the perfect truck. Hint: it doesn't exist. A guy would have bought by page 5 and by now it would have different tires, suspension, exhaust, tuned, bumper, winch, LED light bars.....jeez :truck: Have you thought about how hard that giant black truck is...

Could you show a pic of the linkage on the T-case? Nicely done. thanks

Wow. Just read your entire build. Complete respect for having a plan and making it happen. Every part done right, no cut corners, no compromises. Great to see a guy with the knowledge and ability and resources necessary to complete a first class piece of machinery. Well done sir.:safari-rig:

It's discouraging to see people bagging on "fair-weather campers". Hope they handed out I went to OEW 2015 and I'm better than you stickers. :bowdown:

On Phx Craigslist right now: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/cto/5012723367.html If I wanted a big SUV I'd be on this one. 02 Sequoia, 120K.

Note about Gen 3 Monteros.... I was at my indie mechanic today getting the AC in the Xterra charged, in the back of his shop sat a Gen 3 Montero. Told him I thought about those before I bought the X, he said stay far far away from them. This one has some sort of brake boost problem, it has no...

Sequoia? A local guy has one with a bit of lift, tires, and bedlined below the beltline. It's obvious he uses it hard. Full size, V8, Toyota. Not a Land Cruiser but worth a look? They seem to be the most reasonable Toyota model for year/mileage. Sleeper?

There's a pretty active Mitsy forum here, that's the place to look and ask. I looked hard for a Gen 3 Monty but couldn't find one I liked. Not much aftermarket support. Lots of room. Like any vehicle there are preferred years/models.

Believe it or not there's an oil geek website: http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/forum_summary You were given good instructions here, over there you'll get lots of oil/filter options. Mobil 1/ Wix is a fine combo you can't go wrong with if you don't want to look at other...

2 thumbs up dad, that's awesome! Where did everyone sleep?
