    Kinky 100 Series

    Hey Team - I've got a slight kink in my frame that I've never really worried about but I really want to get my spare out of the cargo area and my current bumper cover is sagging. Is there anyone in the SW USA that could potentially help with this problem? I'll contact BIOR, 4x4 Labs, and Dissent...

    Toyota Trail Hunter Line up

    That is the plan as I understand it from Scott Brady - https://expeditionportal.com/toyota-storms-sema-with-multiple-overland-vehicles-land-cruisers-and-more/ skip to 4:38 in the video. And yes Toyota is always late to the market. Sort, Sweep, Straighten, Standardize, Sustain. The Toyota...

    Toyota Trail Hunter Line up

    camping interest is waning? tell me more. I didn't know there were any restrictions left? on travel due to covid? are those the restrictions you're referencing? I mean there's a lot that goes into this - my household income has frankly doubled since the start of the pandemic. It depends what...

    Single bend in the frame

    Awesome. I just need to find this shop. It's been driving fine for a year and I just noticed it crawling under the truck to figure out the hitch piece. It's definitely perfectly fine to drive. This was a 2001 but had been in Illinois and Alaska for a bit before I bought it cheap. I currently...

    Single bend in the frame

    There's no rear damage to the end of the truck. Shop did a frame swap for me and apparently missed this because it was under the body of the other truck. Yes this is my bad for not double checking but the shop was a client and I trusted them. It's still a daily driver and nothing's wrong I...

    Single bend in the frame

    Is it salvagable? It's right where the hitch attaches.

    100-series rear bumper options

    Resurrecting this thread. I've got a 295/70r16 Cooper AT and I can't get it in the spare location. It's definitely a 33. I even flipped that stopper bar upside down. Am I missing something? My hitch tilts down at at about a 5 degree angle so that could be hit but it's tight against the frame.

    Frame Rust 100 series

    any list of said rubber anywhere so I can start making my spreadsheet? I’m assuming you mean like bump stops and bushings? brake line work is what started this fiasco so definitely. anything else that would just be cheaper labor wise to take care of now like long range fuel tank or anything...

    Frame Rust 100 series

    My question has shifted. Mechanic found a donor frame (he actually called it a rolling chassis) for 5k said he’d do labor for 3k. so now I’m asking what other stuff I need to go ahead and take care of while he’s under there?

    Frame Rust 100 series

    Any particular place you would look for a donor frame or should I just start ordering parts from toyota? 2001 100 series. My mechanic says it's probably fine for a while and we'll just chase stuff down but i'd rather baseline the whole thing and I have time so...

    "Battery Packs" are storage devices. "Battery Packs" aren't "Solar Generators". Refrigerators aren't "Food Generators".

    The jackery notes the 1500 can be charged by a 12v outlet it appears. But I do like the idea of two so they're even more portable if I only need to power some stuff down at the river or something.

    "Battery Packs" are storage devices. "Battery Packs" aren't "Solar Generators". Refrigerators aren't "Food Generators".

    I am a kind hearted naive man who has been considering a solar generator. I too have drawn on napkins and whiteboard and yes even computers that I one day hope to power with mythical solar generators. In other news - was anyone ever confused by the term? Was this a non issue that got blown way...

    2021 Tacoma - 6 Speed Manual - "Overland Light" MPG Build

    I've been shopping 4runners and tacomas for a few months but from what I can find and what local dealerships are asking - I'd be better off getting a new f150 or ram frankly. They are no longer a budget vehicle at all. The only reason to purchase one would be that you wanted the smaller space...

    2022 Frontier

    Thoughts? One thing I’ve always liked about Nissan trucks is the way they include the most commonly used features without having to upgrade an extra couple thousand for an outsized package. I get comfy seats, a touchscreen, cameras, and 4wd without having to add recline seats or a different...
