Scott - Really enjoyed visiting your site and learning more about expedition/adventure travel. My family and I are outdoor enthusiasts - camping, hiking, backpacking, travel, hunting, etc. After research, decided that a 2003-05 Land Cruiser fits the bill.
On the "Top 10 Used Overland Vehicles" you suggest an OME HD Suspension, new shocks and 295/75 R16 BFG ATs. Then in the Cons section you mention strengthening the differentials and axle arms when overloaded or overdriven.
Our travel would include long distance highway travel, trips to National Parks, road trips out West, 2 x per year Elk Hunting trips in the Rockies on some 4x4 trails, running around the great state of Texas (Big Bend, Hill Country, etc). We would occasionally pull a trailer (maybe adventure style), kayaks, gear for week long travel, etc. Are there any other mods you'd find important for this type of travel. I'm looking for effective, purposeful upgrades, not fluff.
Thanks in advance!
Robert
