    Flat tow a 40 advice??

    Yep. What Adam said. I have thousands of miles of flat towing my 40 on 35s and now 37s. For a one time tow, disconnect the drive line. It's 10 minutes, and it ensures there will be no problem. I would try towing it a couple miles first, to see if everything works out. Last thing you need...

    Hi Jon. I have no doubt the LoadSpotter will do me right. Jerry is a great guy to work with. I didn't really have the time for this enclosure myself. Sending you one would cost more than the materials. I would be happy to send you the specs and cut sheet. Email me, and I will send it over...

    Equipt's Land Cruiser 100 Series

    Thanks for the kind words Matto. Much appreciated. You are right, no 105s over here. If they did, I would have one. An SA 100 with diesel, that's just crazy talk! We can make those things happen, but the price tag is huge. Better to go OEM on those if you can. You should get that truck...

    Thanks for the compliment. I am glad you brought up this point. It is something that I have wanted to mention. There seems to be an imbalance in the information we receive, with just about everything. The negatives receive 100 fold what the positives do. Whether it's a kids toy, a mobile...

    Announcing the Eezi-Awn Jimmy Tent

    Eezi-Awn Jimmy Tent! New for fall of 2011 is the Eezi-Awn Jimmy Tent. It is a great addition to the Eezi-Awn Series 1000 or Series 2000 Awning. This ingenious design slides in to the front roller or profile of the awning, and opens with a series of tent stakes and 3 guy ropes. It includes a...

    Thanks Ash. I am solid axle guy too. I have an FJ40 all worked up for Moab, and fully appreciate and love the articulation available. A great deal of my buddies in the local Cruiser club are 80 owners, and I am absolutely amazed at what they can do. But I have to say that the 100 does a...

    Equipt's Land Cruiser 100 Series

    I have been chewing on this question a great deal. I have been looking at other platforms for a while now, and I simply haven't found one that I don't feel like I am taking a step back in. Perhaps a newer 100, or I have grown quite fond of the 76 Series Wagon. Now that is a very cool truck...

    Equipt's Land Cruiser 100 Series

    Jim, that is a good question. And one I took a lot of calculation and effort to address. Secure gear in a vehicle is a serious safety point. I have endured a rolling vehicle before. Everything in the vehicle that is loose becomes a weapon. That is big reason why I have the drawers in the...

    Equipt's Land Cruiser 100 Series

    Thanks David. Yes I did think of that configuration. My decision came down to the fact that I really like the look of the flat surface to the sides of the vehicle, and that I have a long flat area along the passenger side that I can haul longer items or sleep on if the necessary. The front...

    Tembo Tusk LoadSpotter The Tembo Tusk LoadSpotter is a work of art. Everything about it over built. The Accuride slides are rated at 500 lbs for the fridge and 150 for the cutting board. 12 and 14 gauge steel throughout. The handles and mechanisms are high quality and substantial. It...

    Tembo Tusk LoadSpotter Cabinet As I noted a while back, I've had a couple issues with the drop down fridge slide that I have been using. So, we're moving on. Jerry at Tembo Tusk helped me get one of his LoadSpotter Slides with the Cutting Board Attachment. Jerry is a really great man to work...

    Water Heater Thanks. It is an Elgena Nautic water heater. I believe it is German. It holds 1.3 gallons of water and runs on 200 Watts. I had Mario at Adventure Trailers special order the electric version of what they use in their Habitat builds for the Wrangler. I have been very...

    Fluids Nothing fancy, that I know. Valvoline for motor and gear. Prestone for coolant. I never made the switch to synthetics. Not sure why either. Both have their place. The standards have not let me down yet. I run on Chevron Supreme too. It's a bit more, but I seem to get a little...

    Tiki Bar Oh, you would be so proud. I created a mobile one that fits in the Chaser. It folds out and screws together in about 10 minutes. Inaugural party was this past May at the Cruise Moab TLCA event in the San Rafael Swell district of Central Utah Desert. The Lone Warrior Saloon. 3...

    Thanks for noticing that Adam. You guys are correct. It is the heavy duty torsion bars, not the control arms. I fixed the mod post. My bad. They are the Toyota control arms. Cheers,
