    my "recycled trailer build"

    This past year I only managed to camp overnight once, two nights back in March with dreadful weather both nights, lol. A couple other times I just went for a day trip. I tend to favor the track with less debris when I go alone. Burning more gas in the soft stuff is preferable to changing a flat...

    Installing snorkel with existing aftermarket cold air intake 2003 Tacoma w/ 3.4

    x4... If you just intended to get a cold air intake instead, okay, but not necessary with the snorkel. One of the members on the FJ Forum a while back decided to add a CAI after he had already had a snorkel for a year. The snorkel by itself had the obvious effect of dropping his intake temps...

    my "recycled trailer build"

    The best way is to upload the pictures to an image hosting site like Photobucket, ImageShack, or TinyPic first. Then you'll be able copy & paste the image link here (looks like ) for viewing. Click on 'Reply With Quote' right below my post here and see what the image link looks like...

    Storage for Hitch Carrier

    ^^Lol... I have one of those that my Dad gave me. It's great for carrying recovery gear (and any hard pointy things) on the hitch carrier and nigh-indestructible. From the days when aluminum was the lightweight material of choice, but things were still made to last! Not the lightest box by...

    Storage for Hitch Carrier

    Plano vs IRIS... I've seen both in person. My $0.2?.. Plano pros... 1. 4 latches and a hinge make for good all-around lid retention. 2. Plano has years of experience making outdoor-worthy containers for high-UV environments (fishing tackle boxes). Plano cons... 1. Lid overlaps body well...

    Storage for Hitch Carrier

    Last year I ran across some plastic containers from IRIS that have foam gaskets in the perimeter of the lids that seem to make for a pretty good seal, and the lids have a slight indent for the feet of another to be stacked on top (another major criticism of the ActionPacker). However, their...

    Bed rack ideas

    Sweet... So it sounds like you're moving towards a sort of 'exo-cage' rack around/over the topper with the mounting feet under the rails of the cap. Will be interesting to see!

    Bed rack ideas

    Looks like those SnugPro fiberglass are rated for a 500lb roof load, and the integrated aluminum tool boxes are rated for 100lbs each, so I wager they're plenty strong. No idea what the cost difference is between aluminum and fiberglass. I just liked that he was able to get it color-matched to...

    Nope... • Dual-walled polyurethane with foam insulation (BPA free), and stainless steel band

    WIN A WAECO CF50 FRIDGE IF YOU PICK THE BEST NAME FOR THE NEW ATW MOTORHOME

    Indeed. A napkin sketch of the profile would even be fine. Even saying it will look more like their Conqueror than their Commando... Just something to let us know where to aim.

    RotopaX Gas Can Mounting Pictures (please)

    Or how its label was turned just so for the picture, I'll wager. :ylsmoke:

    Check out bigwapitijohnny's Tundra CrewMax. Similar truck proportions to your Mega Cab. He's got a SnugPRO cap (with a short Bajarack roof rack on top and a ton of organized storage inside), but pulls a trailer for his RTT...

    Bed rack ideas

    Are you looking to purchase, or maybe to build a solution? Lots of folks have built their own out of tubing in this style - http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/34311-2009-SEMA-Tundra-Bed-and-Cab-Racks/page2 In fact there is some talk that All-Pro may actually still produce a rack that...

    Blue Ridge Overland Gear Molle Backs!

    Definitely needs some color options. Though I will admit the black color would work great in my FJC simply because the truck has so little visibility into the rear interior with the smallish windows and factory tint, especially at night. Maybe I should be thinking 'stealthy' instead of...

    Box Rocket '03 DC Tacoma Build

    Had to come over here and drool after I saw the wide shots on the 'Show us your Taco' thread. Yes, here on ExPo. Not the forum you're thinking of. Love this little truck! Great pics as always, Adam!

    Show us your Toyota 4runner, tacoma or truck.

    ^^Who knew Adam took such dirty pictures? Unwashed and flashin' the dual-swingout from behind... That's straight-up Taco pron right there! And I thought your truck looked good when it was clean.
