    Mauka2Makai - Our Quest Begins...An 80 Series Adventure

    You certainly took care of a corrosion hot spot, that, to me is a huge deal in itself. It seems like you intend to keep your cruiser for a while and being pro-active with corrosion will play a key role in that. Being that the rest of your cruiser is so well put together, im sure the final...

    2001 4x4 4runner build. At Molasses pace

    Snorkel Very good info, thanks for the update. I will likely deal with a lot more rain that you did simply due to my current location, but im not too worried about that. Might i ask what you were doing for work that involved you hitting dirt six days a week? feel free to pm Mike

    2001 4x4 4runner build. At Molasses pace

    Snorkel SOAZ, I remember reading a while back that you installed the snorkel to help with dust intake. I live in a fairly wet climate, but during the summer i end up driving a lot of inland forest service roads, and after a few relatively long trips my air filter is slammed with dust. I was...

    Scrubber3's long overdue build thread

    Way to go IPOR! I have used them for parts in the past and they were more than happy to correct the issues that came up, even though they were my fault. Their repsonse seems more than reasonable. As someone who has worked at a shop like that before, i would say they went over and above what...

    Hella 500 wire is hot 2 touch? help

    Not sure what your future plans are, but now might be a good time to upgade to a blue sea systems aux fuse box or similar. They can handle a good amount of power and can really clean up/simplify your wiring. I had my 12 circuit box setup so that there was a dedicated circuit used for...

    Hella 500 wire is hot 2 touch? help

    what gauge wire is used on those fuse holders? looks rather small, and for 100 watts going through those lights, i would use 10 gauge to be safe! Mike

    Hella 500 wire is hot 2 touch? help

    To mirror what herm said, we need to see an actual diagram of your wiring to make sure its correct, and posting up what guage wire you are running would also be helpful. To make a broad assumption, too small of a wire equals resistance in the circuit, and resistance can equal excessive heat...

    Yotapilot's 2001 Tacoma DC Build

    Nice looking double cab, in silver no less! Being that you are moving to a somewhat salty enviroment are you concerned about corrosion on the front coil overs? Coming from the northeast i have seen what road salt does to them, and now that my job has me living on the coast, im concerned about...

    Eurosonic's Montero 2.5Gen Build Thread

    Rack looks like a good fit! I really like how it attaches to your rails, that whole clamp setup seems pretty slick. And of course, your B6 a4a is gorgeous.....

    Gentleman, lets talk solid axles!

    I won't get into what vehicle is a better choice or the whole IFS vs SA debate. But as someone who has stared at the front suspension of a montero for a long time here are my concerns, thoughts, ideas etc..... Posting the $ numbers that you did with the sidekick, i would say your montero could...

    Armor Box

    Sturdy aluminum box by the Armor Box company of connecticut. I got this to use with my 4runner for safely stowing the odd-ball items, but i will be picking up a pelican case in the near future so this has to go. The box is used and shows it, however its in good working order. The exterior has...
