I bet you got at least one round of beers for helping with the boat! Always good to do things like this when you are traveling and have the means....and not just for free beers! Funny thing....I have fixed many flat tires of travelers on the road but never my own! The ARB kit has been used well...

Sometimes I call it not Gods country but the Devils country! The rain, sleet, hail, snow, bugs, wind & ect is why! I have seen the temp drop nearly 50 degrees in 15 minutes down there and go from sunshine to snow in the same amount of time! Not that it doesn't happen up here in JH too it just...

Very well put together trip report and excellent pictures. I second what Christian says.....you are skipping a large portion of S. America. While I have not been I imagine it is well worth not skipping!!

Congrats!! Looks like the San Blas were a little lacking in sunshine while you were there. Rainy season and all I guess.... The drive I hear from Panama City to the San Blas (not the actual islands of course) is a good 4wd trip! ;)

and when you get a chance....explore Panama. Ton's of great places to explore in Panama, especially in a 4wd. ;)

awesome....thanks for sharing!

One of mine....an 83 from Germany with the SD33 diesel. Well, it has broken down on the trail a bunch of times. Everytime it was air in the fuel system since I have been working on that. So I just pump the hand primer on the injection pump and back on the trail! Oh, the 24v alternator went...

Wait a minute....are they planning to tackle the Darien via land?

Your first picture is at a favorite spot of mine....

so you went with 3.75" backspacing?

You guys do realize these cyclone pre-filters come in just about every piece of equiptment right? Go to your Cat, Kubota, Case, John Deer, New Holland, whatever dealer and you will find many to choose from.

good story on the mugging event! Nice to hear you handled it well. I carry a variety of self defense items. Mace will put most large men down fast. A taser is also nice, you can get all kinds of them these days, ie ones that look like cell phones ect. My rule is, if they have a gun do not...

That truck is certainly cool. But as mentioned it is not made by Toyota. I think for that price tag I could build the same thing for less. But whatever, it is worth what somebody will pay for it. Next to zero leg room in the back seats.... Not very useful for anything other then a kid in a...

They are better because they will not fade under hard use. IE, decent speeds on dirt/gravel roads, rough pavement for many long hours, ect. They won't fade because they won't get hot. They can be tuned for certain types of uses and suspensions. It is all in the valving. It is a nitrogen charged...

I still really like your ARB LED light mod. I plan to do that to the ARB bar on my Cruiser!

I wouldn't pay $35k for it but.... If somebody will pay $35k for it that is great! Makes my truck worth all that much more! :) I feel the same way and have been saying the same thing about old Nissan Patrols lately. A number of nice ones have fetched $15-20k on Ebay. Great I say, makes mine...

I like the looks of the dampener....been thinking about running a Fox one on my truck.

Nice! Post more pictures! :ylsmoke:

FYI, you can not drive a RHD vehicle in El Salvador. Farther south then Panama....no idea!

I thought so....your truck is hard to miss! It is bigger then I thought too. I was heading east on I80 to Denver to pick up my FJ62 parts truck. Sounds like it was a fun trip!
