    Soft shackles?

    As long as the tether is connected to a different (secure) part of the vehicle (assuming this is common sense), and of sufficient strength (usually a winch extension cable or similar), it should still arrest the flight of a departed shackle or tow hook. Of course, like anything else, there...

    Soft shackles?

    Can use tether lines on shackles if you are concerned. It is another piece of equipment to carry, and another step to take, but if you want to be safe..

    Update on the new Mini FJ…coming to the USA soon?

    I don't see the prices of any of these being realistic, honestly, it's just ridiculous where new car prices have gone. I thought the Grenadier was bad, but when looked at in this context, not so much I guess..

    Fuel tank in place of my spare tire???

    Interesting, that article states you can stack 3 of the 6 gallon tanks, for 18 gallons total.. "Another cool feature? These bad boys are stackable! The super sleek design allows you to carry up to 3 of them in the spare location, which gives you an additional 18 gallons of water and/or gas...

    Fuel tank in place of my spare tire???

    Possibly, thought an email to the company can probably get you specs on the material and a determination if it can 'stand up' to storing gasoline and/or diesel fuel. I suspect there is a good chance it can, and it is more legal/safety/epa issues preventing it being advertised for fuel storage...

    05 sequoia limited aka “turd crappley”

    I'm always keeping an eye out for a 1st gen Sequoia. Love following the build. That spare tire carrier is by far the best looking solution I've seen for the sequoia. Not sure if it is feasible without the body lift or not, but definitely very clean, WELL DONE! Let me know when you get tired...

    DeMontbrun's 2005 Sequoia Limited 4WD Build

    Funny, momma mobile was the reaction my wife had when I talked about getting one. I don't really agree that they are ugly as sin. Stock, they are a little plain jane, particularly when compared to the more attention getting designs of current gen Toyota trucks. But honestly, when lifted and...

    Fuel tank in place of my spare tire???

    I realize this is a really old thread, but came across it while searching for similar options. OP mentions lowering the tank, so assuming he has a vehicle that has an underside spare that lowers similar to pick-up trucks and many SUVs. Anyway, thought it may be useful to someone that comes...

    255/85r17 Anyone running them?

    Too bad they are not available in the MT tread pattern. Heck, too bad the tire size in general is not more widely produced..

    Roaming Lost: x3 Locked 1990 Toyota HDJ81 (80 Series)

    Seems you can't buy an 80 series that isn't a rust bucket with 400K miles for less than $20k+ these days, and that is just the 'widely available' USA production trucks..

    Roaming Lost: x3 Locked 1990 Toyota HDJ81 (80 Series)

    Love your rig, stumbled on this Left Hand Drive Turbo Diesel 80 with a Manual Gearbox that was ultra clean and recently sold for stupid money, but it was really dreamy.. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1996-toyota-land-cruiser-hdj80/

    $10K budget seems out the window (probably because used car prices have gone wild since the pandemic), but can't believe no one has mentioned the BRZ/ Toyota 86 platform..

    New Rivian Factory Planned, Should Boost Output

    Hopefully it is not, but I'm sure it will. Lame duck period is being used to put as much burden on the incoming administration as possible..

    Most reliable US spec Land Rover?

    Probably the LR3, as long as they are well maintained, and they require a fair amount of maintenance. But I've seen stories of 2-300,000 mile examples on original engine driveline..

    Earth Cruiser for Sale on BAT

    Admittedly, I'm not that 'up on' these types of trucks, but uh, that doesn't look right to me. Offset on those rear wheels looks a bit problematic to me. And people freak about 1" spacers..
