    Inclineometer

    Hmmm... it sits level, and there is no backing plate that I installed. I think my dash is level at that particular spot in the center.

    Caravan PHX to Expedition Portal Rally

    An update for those still considering coming into camp "the back way". I spoke to my friend who has a house out by Castle Hot Springs area, and he said he thinks the lake level is probably too high to get through the route via Two Shoe Ranch Rd. to Cow Creek Rd. However, he said if you want to...

    Up this point... ... I was going :Wow1: :Wow1: imagining a typical 1-ton truck and imagining it way past GVWR and wondering about the mileage figure... :xxrotflma Luckily you added the "P.S." part :D Cool truck! So how long have you had it and what has your experience been with the...

    Inclineometer

    I must tell you, that the way the "shelf" is fastened to the dash isn't pretty. I used sheetmetal screws and went right into the dash. This is another classic example of the fact that I intend to drive this truck into the ground, so I don't care about permanently modifying it to suit the...

    You would be best off just to give Mike a call ( 602.793.6741 ) and arrange to pick it up. I'm not sure if he actually has a brick & mortar retail location or not.

    Help With Tire and Rim Selection

    I don't recommend going above 2.5" of lift with your Tacoma, as you will begin to negatively impact the performance of the suspension and cause premature wear on your CV and ball joints. If you choose to wait until you lift the truck to get your new tires, then at that point in time you can make...

    Awesome dude. I love it. And I dig how clean your engine bay is. Looks like I'm not the only one who cleans it up occasionally :ylsmoke:

    Expedition Bicycles?

    :Wow1: :xxrotflma Excellent! Thanks for the tip! One of the records for example... Flat tires : 18 in 1 day In China/Nepal in 1996. That's what I'd call a shity day ! Check out Corax's site. Record made by Janne Corax :xxrotflma Wow, the record holder named Heinz Stücke is something...

    There is still a lot that I need to learn. At this point, my experience is limited to using a repeater once on a trip (I need to practice more!) and the rest has been all simplex (no repeater). But, I think there are potentially a few ways you could do this. All of them would likely depend on...

    Expedition Bicycles?

    There is a couple from right here in Prescott named Tim and Cindie Travis, that are currently on a mammoth bike expedition - around the globe! And they have written a book about it too. They have been all through the Americas, and are currently in Asia. Tim offers some commentary on their site...

    Need help...FJ80

    Whoa! NICE! I missed this thread, so am a little late here. I agree with the other guys - as long as the frame is cool and the price is right, I would probably go for it too.

    Expedition Bicycles?

    Fantastic! What a neat bike. And that sounds like a great ride too. I might have a few contacts (park personnel) on the South Rim that you may be interested in meeting/interviewing.

    Expeditions West 2004 Tacoma

    NICE!!! :victory: Cleaning the lenses is no big deal, to me anyway. In the southwest, it's not much of an issue - maybe it would be in BC or the northwest and such areas due to frequency of mud. I think Scott's will rarely need to be cleaned due to the height and location, and it will likey be...

    Radios

    I know exactly what you are talking about. HOWEVER, what you need to do is get together with some of your favorite trip partners, and discuss the merits of the 2M radio with them. All it takes is 2 or 3 of you to decide to go through with the switch, and get the radios and the licenses. Once...

    Snorkles

    I am not a fan of the deck plate mod myself, but I think if you added a snorkel you could continue to use your deckplate as usual. You would need to make sure that it seals relatively well when the plate is in place though. When you install the snorkel you will need to remove the air box to seal...
