    Hinges, Latches to Use Drawer/Cabinet System as a Floor

    Tent trailer on 35 inch tires

I put some 2x5 rectangle tube between the torsion axle and the frame. Obviously that lifted the trailer 5 inches. Because the axle was set up for a 4 bolt...

    2002 - 2004 Tacoma Questions...

    Here's my $0.02. I drive '02 DC 2.7l 2wd and get the same mileage as the 3.4l 4wd. So if someone tries to tell you that 4 cyl DC gets better mileage, don't believe it. They are great trucks though. You wouldn't go wrong buying one.

    What free online topo map site do you use...?

    I found this site off another board. It has all the topos for the US in .tiff. http://libremap.org/data/ I started printing them on 11x17 (50% scale) and collecting them in a binder. The half scale works well enough with a UTM plotter and a GPS. The half scale is easier to manage on the...

    Any PreRunner / 2wd on this board?

    I have 2002 Prerunner with a Detriot Locker in the rear, 3" lift and sliders. I have amazed quite a few people with I take it, but knowing the limits of your skills and your trucks capabilities is key. Every so often I get a little help from folks, but over all I'm impressed with the Prerunner.

    Something for your First Aid Kits

    I appreciate your comments, but now I have conflicting information. According to the CELOX website "no training required". I'm not disputing your training or anything (and thank you for your service!) I just need to know. :confused:

    Something for your First Aid Kits

    Found this on the web this morning after a coworker told me about it. They carry / use this stuff all the time in Iraq and Afghanistan. Given how remote we can be when on the trail, it looks like a must have for saving lives. This web site is one of many that you could probably but it from . . ...
