    Leaf Suspension Tech - Planning for my 04' Tundra

    Thanks for the response. I ordered the Toytech BOSS shocks that are for 0 - 3" lift. I will let you all know how they work out. My shocks were certainly acting as limiting straps in the rear. So these should be an improvement.

    2004 Tundra Adventure Cab - Build/Adventure Thread

    Thanks for the pics. I think I may be pulling the trigger on one if they'll reproduce your bumper sans light bar box.

    2004 Tundra Adventure Cab - Build/Adventure Thread

    for some reason the pictures earlier in your thread have stopped working. I was hoping to look at the Brute Force bumper but those are some of the pictures that are gone.

    Leaf Suspension Tech - Planning for my 04' Tundra

    jsnow what ome shock are you running? I need to change my rears, and need something longer. I am not sure the 5115 for up to a 2" lift is what I want I thing it will be a limiting factor to my droop. What are you other guys running? Thanks.

    The More We Explore - Trip Report Videos

    Lovin' the videos. We almost came to the balloon festival this year. When are we going to get the next installment of Fred? I'm loving the build.

    Day trip in the Snow

    We did. We took a whole mess of teenage boys with us, and of them only my nephews new what to expect. The boys were all amazed and loved it. We stopped up a side canyon, while it was snowing on us, and cooked lunch on the tailgate of the Tundra. It really added to their experience. It was a...

    Day trip in the Snow

    I have an aal in the rear, and Bilstein 5100's in the front. The Bilsteins are set for two inches of lift. I'm running FJ Cruiser steelies with 285 ST Maxx tires. The tires barely cleared the upper control arm, so I added Poison Spider 1.25" wheel spacers in the front, for the purpose of...

    If you were going to have a do everything Tacoma or Tundra, what model would you get.

    They are a good size, and are pretty capable off road. However, I am only 5'9" and just fit comfortably in the bed. I can't imagine being six inches taller and fitting without being on an angle.

    Day trip in the Snow

    No, I spent 13 years driving a Cherokee, and grew up with other Jeeps. I like him well enough I let it slide.

    Day trip in the Snow

    We spent a Saturday on the south side of the Uinta Mountains north of Roosevelt, Utah. You can see in the video that the snow was not packing and that I needed chains. My brothers Rubicon was very good with all of its traction devices. We made it to the 10,500 ft mark and then turned around...

    Help me select new tires - Which have you liked or disliked?

    I have run BFG ATs KOs on my last two vehicles. I really like the tire for its performance in most terrains. What the BFG AT KO does is this. It is very good at most things, but not perfect at any one thing. It has good manners on the road and is quiet for an aggressive AT. It is good in...

    ROFarts Lost in Utah; The Story

    I do believe the arch you are under is Jug Handle arch. Rainbow bridge is near Lake Powell. By the way awesome report. Almost makes me wish I were an old fart so I could tag along.

    Why we buy Toyotas

    I drove a '97 Cherokee for 13 years. I loved the interior, and exterior changes Jeep made. The only things in 153,000 miles that wore out and could be blamed on Chrysler were a wheel bearing, water pump, and the driver door window switch. These are pretty normal wear and tear items. Most of...

    2007 Sequoia...aka The BigTree

    That looks just right. A little attitude, without being too loud.

    M416 Biff's Build

    Great job on the trailer. The swivel mounts look like knee knockers, or that the will catch trail obstacles. Other than that, awesome.

    WTB OEM JBL Head Unit

    I have an '05 Tundra, and the head unit is acting up. I know I could buy something aftermarket, but I really prefer the OEM look. If anyone out there has this head unit, I'd be very interested.
