    What will happen sooner... a Ford Gas vs Diesel dilema

    ULSD doesn't have the lubrocity that the old diesel fuels had. The high pressure fuel pumps are lubricated by the fuel so there is more potential for wear. The modern common rail fuel systems compound the problem because if the fuel pump goes, it will send shrapnel through the entire fuel system...

    New Bronco

    Dealers are still working through the ordering process, learning as they go. Mine just reached out to me last week and I reserved on July 20th. It won't be till mid-May before you get a build schedule, and depending on what you ordered, it may end up being either a late availability MY21 or...

    Gen 2 rear springs in Baja?

    Made it into Ciudad Constitucion and found a shop they got something close that seems to work. Rattles a bit but they're trying to shim it. After a little bit in Baja, everything rattles anyway

    New Bronco

    Broncos or Bronco Sports? Big differences/ So far the only Broncos in the wild are test mules, although they are getting real close to production quality, if not already there.

    Gaia Questions

    Would love to be able to select ares to download via PC but don't think that's possible. You can build routes etc. Once you download on one mobile device though, it will update on all your other mobile devices signed in to the account (no matter how long that takes...)

    3rd gen 4 runner rear springs

    I have been running the Sonoran Steel 1.2 FJ springs too. They were tall to begin with but have settled. Now with rear bumper, tire carrier, carrying 10gal of fuel and all the crap I have inside (before loading for a trip...), they're sagged down to the point where I only have an inch off the...

    New Bronco

    They are making the manual Sasquash option late availability. Not sure if that means pushing to MY22 or sneaking in for 21. Thetes a few things like that right now. Doesn't matter unless you have a reservation, supposedly all reservations will be built before they start stocking dealer lots...

    Sierra Expeditions

    Same thing here. Called and talked to them twice. First time they apologized and said a glitch held up the order, it would go out the next am. A week later still no show and they said they would have to get back to me with an answer the next day for sure. 3 days later I put in the claim with...

    Flat towing JEEP question

    Have a Rockhard4X4 bumper and used the Blue OX adapters, they basically bolt on with the bumper to the frame rails. They have different adapters for the various tow bars. I use a NSA Brute tow bar which has an integrated braking system (think surge brakes). You have to run a cable to attach...

    Show us your Toyota 4runner, tacoma or truck.

    Yeah, bounce back and forth between the Eastside and Leavenworth areas. We did a bunch of the Bethel Ridge area, Rattlesnake Creek, then up and over from Nile to Moon Rocks/Funny Rocks into Thorpe and back home. Some great trails around those areas, you get the full value out of your steering...
