I have to admit this is one of my favorites as well. Unless you're driving a unimog I wouldn't worry about that last switchback, it's not bad at all. This road makes for a great picture...

nice writeup and photos Steve. How was the fishing at both lakes? What about the convict lake camping? How did you like it there?

Robb is right, the Kaymar is a great and proven bumper. I never meant it was crap for a bumper, it just wasn't for me. Personal preference, that's all. The kaymar is stout, I've seen it take hits just fine. David Zartman (publisher of 4wdtoyotaowner) took his kaymar equiped 80 across the...

Did you happen to check it out? Is it worth seeing?

So sorry to dissapoint you :sombrero: Tacoma's are sweet by the way, I used to have one! The Kaymar just didn't fit me. It wasn't burley enough for me. I wanted something a little more stout that improved my departure angle. The answer is the 4x4 labs bumper. The ladder is cool, it...

Looks nice up there. Isn't funnel lake right around there?

I have a partner steel 3 burner with windscreen. Before that I used a campchef all terrain. Both of them are propane and have never posed a problem, the only reason I switched stoves was for packing space. However because of proven reliability and for redundancy I cary a MSR dragonfly with white...

It doesn't look like you need a flush mount one but I'll share anyways. I like these West Marine one's. The plugs are snug and the receptacles mount securely.

One other thing that I don't think has been mentioned is crafts. Go to a craft store or the dollar store and look for age appropriate crafts. Recently we made a wooden sail boat. We used glue and some paint. Then we took it down to the creek and sailed it on a string. Another thing that I...

Wow, it must be a good feeling to have it running again. Congratulations. How did your receiver hitch come out on the labs bumper with the rear crossmember moved back to accommodate the aux tank? I requested the same thing on my bumper but the receiver pin is a bit hard to get too, among...

It sounds like siezed pistons. I'm actually going through this on my 80. The pistons don't retract very well so the brakes get hot and prematurely warp. I decided to replace my rear calipers with OEM one's. For the front Toyota actually has a rebuild kit and I chose to do that instead of...

Beautiful rig :bowdown: And even better expeditions!

You lucky dog! You scored yourself a sweet project. And you get to build it how YOU want it, that's awesome. I can't wait to see how this unfolds...:safari-rig:

Congratulations Dave! Post up some pics. :jumping: If all goes well I'll be joining the dual sport bunch very soon :Astrologist:

Perfect timing Wil, my 80 was just broken into and so I need to replace my two zone temp gauge and my garmin 276c :mad: TwoZone fridge thermometer testimony: I've used my two zone thermometer only a handful of times while camping. I liked it so much I'm going to buy another one to replace...

Western Sierra's.

Yeah, that was from memorial weekend. Not from mammoth though, similar latitude but on the western side of the sierra's.

Here are a few pictures from somewhere on the western slopes of the sierra's. It was nice and dry the first day It snowed (more like sleet) from midnight to 2am and we awoke to this The snow was almost like hail. We warmed up with a hearty breakfast.

what kind of slide did you use for the wood slide out under the fridge?

That's too cool. Do you know if it suffered any damage?
