So I was looking through all my photo's of neat trucks I've collected over the years and I thought I'd make a thread on what I consider to be the coolest 4wd's on the planet: Sorry if I stole anyone's pics, I don't use them for anything but my own enjoyment to drool over and dream about. Adn I...

SO the threads about VW's in the other section got me thinking... Are there and aftermarket gear sets for the Manual Toyota Tranny's??? I know thsat the Turbo R151 (or is it 150?) has a lower first gear but are there any other individualy changeable gears out there. What makes me ask this...

So does anyone here have any first hand knowledge with one of these rigs??? -First off is it CountRy??? Or county??? Nevermind I see it says countRy right there on the side of one of the cars in the pics I posted... -Do they have the Low first gear/Granny like the Syncro Vanagons do...

So as the title suggests... I got som e new treads for the 4Runner. And WOW do they make this truck LOOK com plete from the outside now!!!! I went with 33X10.50;'s in the Flavor of BFG AT's. Almost went with the KM II's but in the end I figure that most of my driving is honestly on road adn...

WELL!!!!!!!!!! We left... But I will say from the get go here: We returned with our tail between our legs... And me, well I'm just sad :sad: I will say though, the Toyota ran flawlessly. The little 22RE with 4.10's pulled up hills (yeah it was would up but hey...) at 60 even on the biggest...

So somehow I made it home... A little background: We pulled a permit for the Middle fork of the Salmor River as I posted in my original thread in Planned Adventures. What was an issue was that we had no idea if the road would be open to the put-in or if we'd get there and find we couldn't even...

So as I'm looking at my finaly worn out tires and contemplating what to run now, I realize I'll also be re-gearing and that at this point I mihgt as well fix those silly open diffs. That being said, I don't really have the funds to run ARB's and while there's always the E-locker I could throw...

So I was looking at a sig of one our members that said "Discover 2dr" so I did a bit of internet hunting and all I could find was this pic in an add for a Discovery "comercial" that appears to be a 2dr Discovery with panel sides...Anybody got some info to share with me because I'm coming up...

So in another thread KC linked to Irbis Off Road and they have this project truck or something called the Mystery truck... It's pretty confused with Subaru Badges, V-Tec logo's but it clearly an SUV of some sort but not one I'm familliar with... so what the hell is it??? As you can see...

Well Whitney, my better half, decided to take today off so on a complete whim I suggested we head down to Pacific City and Cape Kiwandis with the underlying idea of getting to take the 4Runner on the beach... hehehehehehe... So as it turned out it was a somewhat typical Oregon coast day, but...

Well, my Yari II Drop-point finnaly showed up and it is AWESOME!!!! But then just on a whim Whitney (my GF) brought home one of their new fixed blades AND one of their civilian leagal versions of their auto-knives. This one uses the Gerber F.A.S.T. system that makes it fairly close to a...

Well, I got bored the other night so I picked up the graph paper adn started doodling my truck. about an hour later I had turned it into this... I'm kind of thinkingt I need a little trailer now... I think next I'm going to doodle it with a camoer in place of the stock hard-top. There...

Well, actualy I think we can all apreciate how neat this is... <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Yj0SV2pCHaA&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed...

So, I have a Marlin Rear bumper... LOVE IT. Now I'm looking to get a front bumper as well. I've been looking at Addicted Off-Road, Bad Lands, ARB and even another Marlin for the front. The Adicted offorad looks to be a great bumper, I know Marlins stuff is top notch from experience. The...

I'm sure this has been gone over before, but I searched and couldn't find an answer. So: Question: Are Fram Oil filters any good? Or should I just go to the stealership and get the Toyota parts. My Dad was at Baxter APS and was picking up a bunch of crap so I asked t him to grab me a few Oil...

So as uyou may knw, I'm a rafting nut, and I gotta say, one ofmy favorite day floats of all is right here in my back yard. Partys/rigs responsible: Me 89 4Runner with Whitney (my GF) Andy - 99(?) Taco and GF Julian Chris - 70's (?) RHD BJ40 imported from OZ SOOOO SWEET and GF Emma So we...

A very lucky friend of mine has gotten himself a RHD BJ40 with we belive a 2b diesel motor in it. Anyone know the part number and Voltage for the Glow plugs in this motor? Cheers Dave

So it has come and gone again this year. The time that my best friends and I load up the old trailer, hitch it to some poor over worked truck and head off into the sunset in search of rivers to run and good camping spots to sample whiskey around the campfire. Note: not all of the pics are...

So while it may not be the greatest GPS unit, my dad just up and handed it to me before they got off to Australia and said: "here maybe this will be fun to have on your rafting trip" My dad is so damn cool. So I've been playing with it for a few days and I'm kind of getting the hang of it...

So the new T-chain went in, my milage improved, power is up, and overall the engine is breaking in nicely....hopefully I won't have another issue there for a few hundred-K... NOW: Still having the heat up issue as the engine warms up. I replaced the T-stat (it was bad) and now it doesn't heat...
