Thanks for all the feedback thus far. I do have a basic understanding of mechanics and have driven plenty of older yotas. For about 2 yrs I daily drove my 1983 fj60. I think the later yrs 80's will be much more sophisticated. As @Tex86w knows, I will not buy junk. The hardest part is I just...

Long-time Expo guy, who has spent the majority of time in the truck section. A friend let me borrow his 80' series for a few days and I loved it. The problem is since I gave it back, I can't stop thinking about it. Now I am searching High and Low for a clean one. I have been spending a lot of...

yeah its up north

more dirt: The road got a little tight here for the full size but we made it happen. I ended up using my maxtrax to help. I forgot to take a picture of that part.

Ome is awesome, if it's Toyota it gets OME for my builds. I know there are other companies out there that make amazing suspension systems. I have had quite a few OME kits and never had a problem. My friends that have had very high-end suspension systems are always having to add nitrogen, set...

Thanks for all the responses. I think road noise is a real personal thing. In my experience, most aggressive tires get loud if (not rotated =cupping), and once you wear the tread down more than halfway. I think it's b/c at that point you have worn out the scalloped edges or any other feature...

Well, I am admittedly horrible at keeping up build/adventure threads. I am trying. Here is the last year of adventures. For work, I get to drive a lot of remote ranch roads across the west. That makes up some of these trips. The rest are all my typical trips to central america for surfing and...

I need to get some new tires ordered in the next few days. I really can't decide between the Toyo atIII and Duratracs. I feel like I have been seeing a lot of Duratrcs lately and it has peaked my curiosity. The tires are for a 1st gen tacoma. The truck will see 50/50 asphalt and dirt. Yes, I...

found out my parts are finally in. I am on a quick surf trip in central america. It will be a few more weeks before anything is accomplished. Which is a good thing, b/c I still have not figured out which tires to go with. Hoping to get it figured out while the sales are taking place. I am...

rental jeep and a lost tire in death valley sounds like a recipe for disaster haha..

I dont mind the E load, I know they are heavy. I like the durability. I have used cooper st Maxx in the past and loved them. I just put a new set on my wife's 4 runner. I am tempted to use them but they are heavy. I think around 50lb a tire where the Toyo AT3 is like 44lb. I could be...

headlights were waiting when I got home. I just threw them on. I was surprised how that all the plastic clips were still in great shape, not brittle at all.

I forgot how fun these trucks are to drive, They seem to have the perfect amount of pep ad power for their size. I also have been driving a 1987 22re or a ford diesel. Sure, the ford has never-ending power but it doesn't jump off the line like this little 1st gen. Hopefully, the ARB items arrive...

I could not pass up this little gem,1 owner 136k (he is a neighbor). He Has done every required maintenance and oil change at 3500k they are all noted in the book. I was looking forward to building the little 87 but this was a deal I could not pass up. So onward and forward. I had ordered...
