Price is just under $400.which is a better deal than a $300 trailer that I would be scared to tow 5 mikes. I want something as light as possible, as I would primarily be towing with a 3rd gen 4Runner. I don't think I would go for a fully enclosed set up on this. Primitive camping supplies, plus...

Talking with this guy on Craigslist. He lists the trailer as 5'x4', and 64" outer tire to outer tire. He's about 3 hours away, but I have some friends in his area that I needed an excuse to go see. This would be a basic build, axel upgrade, dry kitchen storage , battery box, inverter, probably...

Where do you mount the brushguard?

Throttle Pedal Position Sensor. Just did this on my 01 LX470 two weeks ago. see if you can get the code pulled.

Thank you to everyone for your responses. I'll be doing some measurements once the temp gets out of the teens in a day or two! I'm going to poke around underneath the vehicle, and do some looking along the frame rails. I may attempt to place the battery(ies) midway along the frame, if it looks...

Thanks for the feedback everyone! Now it's time to start measuring.... The non-fun part. :)

I would be adding at least one battery, and waiting for the alternator to give up to justify that upgrade. A roll out solar panel may help with the life of the alternator, tho.

The electric chainsaw has been on my mind for several years. There was a trip posting of a couple of guys that were in S America, and they went that route. I feel the electric chainsaw would be a little less troublesome. I think I would carry a 30ft cord for it, which would reach the front of...

The info I'm reading says to not exceed 5ft in power cable length. Is that just manufacturer's CYA, or would it be OK to run the length of the vehicle?

So, I would have to choose between the disco ball, and the electric griddle? :)

Here's the specs if anyone is curious. Electrical Specifications Output power 1800 watts Surge rating 2900 watts Peak output current 45 A Output voltage (at no load) 120 VAC RSM +/-3% Output voltage (over full load and battery voltage range) 120 VAC RMS +4%, -10% Output frequency 60 Hz+/-0.05...

Because I have this in my garage, it made me think about ditching liquid fuels for cooking, and just cook using a folding griddle, and/or an electric skillet. I think it would make things simpler and easier when I'm on family trips. I would keep all of my cast iron for home use, and for guy...

**Edited with link to owner's manual** I ended up with this inverter for basically nothing. This thing weighs about 20lbs (actually 16), and came out of a mobile medical unit. Would this thing be considered overkill in the back of a 3rd Gen 4Runner...

I'm enjoying driving it. I like having older vehicles, guess it makes me think of days gone by. My bro-in-law had a 2wd the same color when I met him and his wife while I was in the Marine Corps. That's how I met my wife. So, this brings back a lot of good memories when him and I spent 40-100...

I got the BFG's yesterday. Purchased, mounted, and balanced for $228! They looked to be in pretty fair shape, with plenty of life left. On had a little outside wear, but should wear itself back even. I've put over 350 miles on the jeep, since the a/c quit working in my daily driver. I think the...

decides to prank the wife and daughter. Drove the jeep onto the little retaining wall, set the brake, and had my 6yo son slip into the driver's seat. I got out and started yelling "whoa, stop!" We thought they were on the back porch for this, but they had gone inside. So, I sent my son in acting...

Should be picking these up Sunday for $200.I have these in 265/75-16 on our 4runner and have been satisfied with them.

Look what I found for free-nintey-free. Going to have to fill up all those switches for mall crawler status!

Thank you to all you guys for your help and advice with this.

Birmingham, alabama area. I'll check out the disconnects. Trying to talk the wife into letting me get a set of tires before her 4runner goes into the shop for its 250,000 mile service (water pump, shocks, timing belt, etc). BTW, can I throw 235/75-15's on it stock, as long as I keep it on the...
