    2004 Tacoma Mods to Suit

    Thanks Marathonracer! I've found a few aftermarket front receiver hitch options for 2nd gen tacomas, but not 1st, except the one offered by Curt Manufacturing which reduces front end clearance. It looks like the front bumper may have to be cut/modified to properly fit a custom 1st gen front...

    2004 Tacoma Mods to Suit

    Thanks Adam! OME is definitely at the top of the list for my suspension. Plan on calling Cruiser early next week to talk it over. Any more specific thoughts on 255/85/r16 vs the 33x10.5x15?

    Choice for Family Adventure Vehicle

    Great feedback, thank you to all who have contributed! Currently, my "excursion vehicle" is a 2006 Dodge Ram Mega Cab 4x2 5.9L Diesel. It has been the Bomb, with exceptional MPGs!! However, without 4x4 and without 3rd row seats, it is no longer the great vehicle that befit so many of our...

    We are moving down from a full size pop-camper, looking to go more svelte in our travels. Trips range from your basic weekend getaway - one to two quick nights, to extended trips up to 10 days. Live in Texas, lots to see here, plus enjoy traveling out west and hope to go many new places as well.

    Campa Cub Trailer Opinions?

    No doubt, the Campa ATT is one of the finest expedition trailers. It also comes with a price that says as much, 20K+ pictured above, out of my range.

    Outitting the Family Cruiser

    Thanks for all the feedback. Great to know stock will get me started and can grow from there. When I do my suspension/shock upgrad, if that is the road I go, is OME a solid and safe bet for most applications? I've heard others mentioned, it just seems to be the or one of the most common.

    Outitting the Family Cruiser

    Posted this in another section of the forum, but thought it may make more sense in this section specific to Cruisers. My family and I are outdoor enthusiasts - camping, hiking, backpacking, travel, hunting, etc. After research, decided that a 2003-05 Land Cruiser fits the bill. On the "Top 10...

On the "Top 10 Used Overland Vehicles" Scott Brady suggests an OME HD Suspension, new shocks and 295/75 R16 BFG ATs. Then in the Cons...
