I have a brand new, never mounted LHS Alu-Cab 270 Shadow Awning for sale. I bought this directly from Alu-Cab just before they became available in the U.S. but have decided to go a different route due to complexities mounting this to my pop-top roof. These are available for $1500-1600 depending...

Like several others I am in need of a portable solar system for my vehicle, but I don't like the size and weight of the suitcase-style units available for purchase. I've pieced together most of my DIY setup, but I have couple of questions on the last few bits. My planned setup: - HQST 100W...

I searched here but didn't find anything. Does anyone have experience with these? Looks like a Helinox knock-off. Our camping chairs were shot, and I'm all for competition so I ordered one. It seemed sturdy and well built, so I ordered a second for my wife. We'll start testing them and...

I'm a solar newbie and have been looking at options for my Land Cruiser to keep my auxiliary battery charged while running the fridge and other accessories (especially in the hot summer months). Originally I wanted to mount a 100W panel to the roof - an aluminum clam shell style pop-top...

Just saw this on Facebook:

I’ve had my eye on a trip to Colorado for a while now but work and life kept getting in the way. A few weeks back my daughter and I finally got away for an adventure. She’s six and starting 1st grade on Monday. We’ve been discussing and planning the trip loosely since the spring. By loosely...

Has anyone had problems with the canvas shrinking either seasonally or due to weather to the point it's difficult to deploy the awning?

It is with a heavy heart that I offer up my 1985 4Runner for sale. It has been an amazing vehicle, but I'm short on space and want to focus time and energy on my Land Cruiser. I'll list specs and post run of the mill for sale pics here, but I suggest checking out this link or the one in my...

This story begins like many others with a guy sitting on the east coast dreaming about traveling west. I bought an 80 series Land Cruiser in Atlanta last spring. We’ve been to Red River Gorge and Great Smoky Mountain National Park, but I was angling for a reason to take her on a longer road...

With my family growing, I decided last year to move into a larger vehicle. My 1st gen 4Runner is an amazing truck, and we made it work when there was only three of us. But with a second child on the way I parked the 4Runner and purchased a 80 series Land Cruiser. I'm confident this vehicle...

Is it ok? I'm reading up on regs for backcountry camping in Utah. If the soap is biodegradable is it ok, or should I pack baby wipes?

***Don't need overall measurements of the awning, but more specifically of the mounting points*** Hi, all! I need measurements between the pivot points of both the 2.0M and 1.4M versions. Due to the timing involved from purchase to receipt I will not have the awnings available in time to...

I need at least one (possibly two) complete bellcrank assemblies for a 1985 4Runner. They don't need to be new, but I'm not looking to replace one corroded pair with another. I'm hoping someone who has switched to discs or a t-case parking brake has a couple of these laying around. Please let...

I need to upgrade my sleeping situation and have narrowed my choices down to the three following mats: 1) Exped Mega Mat: http://www.moontrail.com/exped-megamat-10-lxw.php 2) Therm-a-rest Dream Time: http://www.rei.com/product/797491/therm-a-rest-dreamtime-sleeping-pad 3) Nemo Cosmo...

Hopefully this isn't a repost. What is everyone carrying as far as knives/multi-tools go? I've had a Benchmade auto knife for 12 years that has served me well. Post up your go-to knife or multi-tool.

A couple of months back I picked up an 80 with the intent of turning it into a DD/family adventure vehicle. My 4Runner is great for wheeling and solo adventures, but with another baby on the way we needed an addition to the stable that would allow us to fit four comfortably. I have a lot going...

Did anyone see this awning at Overland Expo? I need to call Equipt again (I didn't leave a voice mail when I called last), but I figure I'll post here to stir some debate. I really like the idea of having coverage on the side and rear of the vehicle, but I can't see why this awning is so much...

I'm a new 80 series owner, and as I research the changes I want to make to this new-to-me truck I run across different items that were never or are no longer available for 80's in the U.S. I'm curious what kind of products those with more experience would like to see available here. If you...

Rather than lowering my truck I would like to go up a tire size from 33's to 35's. These BF Goodrich KM2's are almost new. They have less than 5000 miles and tons of tread. They were professionally mounted and balanced, and I keep my truck aligned so the minimal wear you see is uniform and...
