    Gen 3 - Auxiliary Fuel Tank - 15 Gallon

    Dropping the price $1,200. That's $1,000 less than I paid to get it into the states. Great option for those expedition minded folks.

    Thanksgiving in Death Valley

    Lloyd - Hate to do this, but need to stay in town. Had four real estate transactions scheduled to close before Thanksgiving now two have been pushed into the trip dates. Been a rough week... Tried to make other arrangements but not looking feasible at this point. One of my friends (Nate)...

    OEM Locking IRS Differentials

    FYI... ARB is dropping the price on their lockers $100 across the board. I'd go ARB. Reliable plus you get onboard air for your tires. Simple setup. Unless you can buy crazy cheap...

    R50 Nissan Pathfinder vs. Gen3 Mitsubishi Montero vs. Gen3 Toyota 4Runner

    Pathfinder is great for snow or gravel. Anything more then forget it. Personally, I think the Nissan products are far inferior to Mitsu or Toyota in quality and reliability. Montero: 24 gallon fuel tank - range easily over 400 miles / tank (even modified like mine), rear door spare tire...

    Yes, I think it was the wild animals or Indians. I'll have to ask about that.

    More notes from the someone who just visited. Definitely start at the Furnace Creek Visitor Center for all the latest backcountry information Mesquite Spring Campground is quiet, has water and is their favorite. They liked the Leadfield ghost town Historic Stovepipe Wells has the heavy duty...

    Overloading with 4 kids / 4Runner third row

    Buy a Tundra with bench seat. 4runner is too small. Back seat is too small.

    Question about tire fittings

    Much easier to fit narrow tire like 255/85R16. Or 235/85R16. Depends on wheel offset and how much cutting you want to do. I think 265/75R16 is the perfect size for it.

    2001-2006 Montero - Gen 3 - Cheap Spacer Lift

    They would. However, it would give you virtually no downward wheel travel. If you want more lift... Subframe spacer lift would be the ticket. There is a kit in Japan for 6" lift (way too much). I was planning to do 1.5-2" subframe lift to fit the 35s but then decided on the 34s. Extra...

    2016 taco arb bumper sneak peek on their facebook page

    Their bumper design is poor and has been. Any bumper that requires the factory bumper to be hacked up isn't worth buying. ARB doesn't want to actually design a bumper to fit the truck; rather they modify their existing design and it attach to the truck. Reminds me of the monstrosity they...

    Gen 3 with Load Range E Tires?

    I ran 255/85R16 Toyo MT in Load E. Firm ride but better cornering and more stable feeling. Currently running KO2 in Load D. Love the KO2s.
