Congrats! I will wait for you to take some pics at a lower-res to look at them all :Wow1: but glad to hear it is going well.

Very cool Scott :cool: How about air circulation/fresh air for the compressor? How air-tight is the box? Or are you only going to run it when parked/lid open?

Scott, that will work fine for me. Hopefully we will be done celebrating your new house by then :jump:

C'mon, think "cell phone" ! Look how reliable they are! :D Seriously though, thanks for the reply.

Excellent!! FWIW, here is how I did mine... (I was going to attach the file here since my website is on the fritz right now, but the limit is 19kb. So here is the link - if it doesn't work, just keep trying periodically. )

WHEW! I was scared there for a minute! :xxrotflma LOL! Oh man, I am probably not the guy to talk to about brakes. My comfort level with weak brakes is scary. In fact, I really need to get mine adjusted. Thanks for reminding me ;) Maybe check out this page...

:Wow1: Please tell me that's after you add the cargo/rack/toolbox/tent setup. Like I said in the email... it's that hard rocker in you... (insert the head banger smiley here). ROCK N' ROLL!! :xxrotflma GT, I already tried to talk him out of it... it's useless... in the words of John Lee...

Nice!! :eek: Fantastic Frontier! That is quite the list you have accumulated there. Very nice!!

Hmmm... I wonder who he could be referring to? :rolleyes: :) Regarding the gears, I think either way you go, there will be times when you smile and times when you roll your eyes. It's that whole trade-off thing. (insert jumping up and down smiley here) Scott, you need to get some more...

I like your way of thinking Vince! :p (insert laughing smiley here) Regarding the controller, I really like the idea of wireless. What is the reason you guys aren't using it? Cost? Anyone know what this "Boomer Box" is from T-max?

Here is a list of recalls/tsb's for the '96 and I don't see the head gasket on the list. However, this article says there is indeed a recall depending on the VIN. Again, it looks like you will have to call Toyota (have the VIN handy).

Oh yea, you will also need to carry two (2) vietnamese coffee presses. ;)

If you are going to take brake pads, might as well take a pair of brake shoes too - especially if one of the axle seals decides to go (hopefully not though). The rear axle shafts are interchangeable as are the fronts. I have 122,000 miles on my original u-joints, with no problems thus far. I...

FWIW - I have run 85 octane (possibly lower) in mine with no problems, quite a bit in Mexico and here in the US. But not leaded regular.

OK, sign me up! :p The Boulders look **************' :cool: 5 weeks to go...

...or contamination. I don't have enough experience to recommend the best tank material, but I think stainless steel scores pretty high. Regardless of what you use, I think it would be a good idea to have some dedicated drinking water that is always filtered (put only filtered water into the...

Thank you sir ;)

This is just too cool :) Check out the bed setup that my buddy Steve has been working on. And while you are there, check out the sweet flip-arm LCD screen that he is using with his computer/GPS moving maps. http://bajataco.com/zr2steve/ZR2Steve.html This guy does lots of long-range trips all...

Yea, I think you hit the nail on the head there! Good luck with your research. I know when I bought mine, I went through the same thing - information overload!

Indeed! I think you are the first person I have met that actually knew about them. Cool! I was always curious about that! And the clothes too... I just couldn't imagine it... I think I would be soaked from head to toe... Did you get to test out the bags or clothes? Here is a pic of my 3R...
