So the stable is now a nicely built 80, a SC, and a late model FJ40 with the good stuff. Nice collection! Todd Z.

Yes, they are - 3 way adjustable. They date from the late Reagan/first Bush years. The RS9000s replaced them in the early 90s. Todd Z.

Subscribed. I haven't seen Rancho RS7000 shocks in a long time! Todd Z.

I am sad to report that Ramsey El Wardani (Bajasportsmobile on this forum) passed away this morning at his home in Todos Santos in Baja. It is believed he passed from a heart attack. Ramsey was a frequent contributor to this forum and co-founder of Agile Off Road, which had developed some...

Hi Brian: I'm assuming you're Brian Skipper from Sway-A-Way? Looks like a great opportunity here to make some bars for the community. Todd Z.

Thanks for the link - I finally got to see pics from last year's event. The vehicles look surprisingly down-to-earth considering the entry cost. Todd Z.

This will be the first occurrence! Todd Z.

Lots of chatter on this event - going to be interesting with all the off-camber turns and dropoffs on the road. Keep 2 medical helos in queue.... Sounds like a good race for a Pro4. Todd Z.

That's home-brew and scary! Todd Z.

Thanks for the tip, jgaz! I'll do that! Todd Z.

Thanks for the review. I wish I could have made it to the Expo this year and picked up product in person - I want to purchase the axle cradle but the shipping costs are prohibitively expensive (almost as much as the piece itself). Todd Z.

I don't know that I've ever seen a van of that vintage with a solid beam axle. As you noted, those disappeared with the ending of the first-gen Econolines in the late '60s. Perhaps Ford sold a few for extremely high GVW applications. You're probably aware they did that with some of the...

Always love to see your upgrades, Larry. What will replace the Detroit? ARB? Limited slip? Todd Z.

Sounds like another great adventure! Looking forward to any updates you have along the way. Todd Z.

Re-terminating would certainly be an acceptable thing to do (assuming the cable has enough stress relief in it currently to allow for a slightly shortened length). That's what I did with the cables in my Super Duty when I put ring terminals on them to attach to military clamps. Todd Z.

Nice article! I plan to run these tires on my Bronco when the current Toyos wear out. Todd Z.

Congrats on your appearance on BaT this morning! Todd Z.

Wow - you had apparently little to no damping left in your suspension. Must feel a lot more controlled now. Todd Z.
