Not sure if this is more appropriate in general Toyota forum or other vehicle but here it is.
Presenting Baby Shark ?
1996 Celica GT Convertible
Gas prices keep going up and I find spending less time in my gas guzzler. Baby Shark gets 3 times better miles per gallon than my truck and I...
So apparently I really like 1/2 ton Suburbans and big tires. Found this 2007 Yukon XL 1500 with with 200k miles at a price that I really could not resist passing up.
My plan for the Yukon:
[DONE] Roof rack with cargo basket and ski box
[DONE] Front 1-2" level kit
[DONE] Bilstein 5100 shocks...
I am building this pickup on the KJ Forum however they are having a very difficult time accepting the fact that I am turning a Liberty into a fully functional pickup. I had axtremely good feedback building my Suburban here on ExPo and here we go with the Jeep!
I finally got my first Jeep and...
Two years ago I finished building my 2000 Suburban to be the most perfect daily driver/weekend warrior/family overlander. I love the truck, had an absolute blast building it and 150,000 miles later it's still my daily driver and weekend warrior. It's perfect and I am itching to build another...
I can not seem to find this answer anywhere, but exactly what does the a relay do in a light bar wiring harness?
I have been running a 36" light bar on my truck for 5 years with no problems. It is wired: battery + to inline fuse to light switch on dash to light bar positive cable, negatives...

Just another reason to be extra careful on the trails.
Just stumbled onto this little gem: Zip-tie tire traction aids.

Has anyone seen them or better yet used them? This looks like one of the worst ideas I have ever seen for mud or snow emergency recovery.
I have trac-grabbers...
A year and a half ago I ran into Milestar Patagonia MT tire. Never heard of the Milestar or anything about their tires. I pulled the trigger on the Patagonia MT and it is the absolutely perfect tire for my 2000 Suburban that I use mainly for off-road use.
My 2011 Suburban does not get as much...
3/4 Ton or 2500 Suburbans have slowly become extinct and somewhat a desirable commodity. Their sales have been dwindling since late 1990s and have decreased so much that GMT900 was the last generation of this heavy duty platform. 2013 was the last year of 2500 Suburban and 2014 was the last year...
When I lifted my 1500 Suburban I initially used SkyJacker Hydro front and rear shocks, which lasted all of three months. I contacted SkyJacker and they kindly suggested I buy another set or another brand. I switched to Bilstein 5100 shocks and nearly two years of hard abuse later they are...
What does everyone carry? Actually use and why? Low budget approach.
I did not include an actual winch, redneck winch or the flip-flop winch

I turned my daily driver and family mobile into an adventure/expedition rig. We started out with a 2000 K1500 Suburban and lightly modified it while adhering to a strict $1,000 budget (during the first year) while focusing on saving money on the actual adventure. I live in the Southwest and...
Does anyone run a Detroit Locker, Grizzly Locker or a spartan lunchbox in their GM 10bolt rear end?
Any other rear ends that you have used the Detroit Locker in when you had a full size truck that weighed at least 6,000lbs.
I don't care about theoretical reasons why it would or would not work...
Our trusty old Suburban just turned past 200k miles, and with 3 three kids wifey wants a newer Suburban to replace her 528i and our 2000 Sub for road-trips and hauling kids. This truck has been all over the country on paved and dirt roads. We drove to Fairbanks a couple years ago, top of Mt...
