    Would like input on buying 5th Gen 4Runner or LX470?

    I seriously looked at JK's and came very close to buying one until I found out that it needed a pinion seal (which I know is nothing but was the final red flag) and already had to have an axle seal replaced with only 20,000 highway/city miles. This confirmed how I had always felt about Jeeps and...

    I've been looking for 3 months for a well priced 5th gen 4runner Trail or TRD without much luck, and a 2000 LX470 popped up locally with 90,000 miles for $13,000 USD. Appears to be in very good shape with all service records since new. My conundrum is this; Intended Use: Overlanding, back...

    Looking to buy in Canada or USA Fuso 4x4 or comparable for international overlanding.

    I also saw this one but it doesn't have a 2 speed transfer case with low range as it looks like all the automatics are.

    Rickson wheel alternative

    I'm also looking for 19.5 inch dually conversion wheels like what Rickson makes/made. Places I've tried so far with no joy; Rickson - can't get a hold of them and have been told they're out of business and also have terrible reviews on line. Buckstop - only makes 20" wheels, so a person has to...
