Fun with numbers.... Thats a 48" Hi Lift jack:

Time for some test fitting.....lol....

Of course, excitement got the best of me, and about 30 minutes later I did the SOA swap... Now I'll have to lift the pintle hitch up 1 or 2 slots to level it out.

I have the standard pintle setup, and I had it on the location which is level with the original receiver. At that height, the trailer was about level, a little higher than as pictured above.

Today, 9/16/07 - I drove out to the AZ/NM border to pick up my military trailer. Its a 1952 M100 that I picked up slightly rough, but at a nice price and perfect for me since I have a lot of plans for it. The bonus is it was already converted to 6 lug, and came with nice Toyota steelies...

I'll be trying out my 39x13 tires on a military trailer soon. If I don't report back on the ride after posting pics... We'll know it was a terrible idea. :REExeSquatsHL1:

I'm still trying to find one of these trailers to customize and pull behind my LX450... They are always out on the east coast, but I never find them around me in AZ. Anyone know of any for sale in the Southwest? For clarification, they are the smaller 1/4 ton trailers like this: and...

This listing is for the 50+ inch versions of the XZL, but the seller says: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-MICHELIN-XZL-1600-R20-MILITARY-OFFROAD-MUD-TIRES_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ66478QQihZ008QQitemZ180154810158QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

I see them on ebay all the time...

You sure you didnt just mess up the setting on the end of the hose that connects to the valve stem? If you turn the black plastic piece a certain direction it will be set to deflate, rather than inflate the tire. Its pretty easy to move that piece up or down, and turn right or left which...

http://www.militarytires.com/ They have all the XL, XZL, XML tire sizes and specs

Stock 16" Lexus rims. The tires are 325/85/16 (38.7 tall by 13" wide). These are the smallest version available in the XML series.

12 mpg average, the same since stock, and stayed the same after the 39" tires, 6" lift, ARB rack, RTT, etc....

Thanks...lol. I had enough fun getting the 39" versions to BARELY fit... They would like nice on a 40 tho...

Must.......resist......bigger........tires.......

Some pics from a Payson trail trip... Don't drink the water! Fun with balancing on rock edges... Flex, flex, flex. Climb Climb Climb.... If I really cross the axles up, I'll get a bit of rubbing, but definately nothing that causes damage or stops me. Even unlocked I was able to...

Playing with the new suspension and tires on the Smiley Rock trail last week:

Hmm... It looks just like the one the FJ Cruiser Trail Team were giving away about a year ago...

haha, yeah - I'm in Northern AZ. We haven't had rain for quite some time...and this stuff only lasted a few minutes as a strong downpour. While its definately not hardcore, I really liked the short videos since Im always driving and never actually watching my truck when Im offroad.

Got to play with the XMLs in the mud.... I can drive through the goop just fine......I was playing here and watching the mud balls fly everywhere... http://s202.photobucket.com/albums/aa206/CodyLX450R/?action=view&current=b5a3b364.flv...
