Good deal? Anywhere else I should call?

If anyone wants a used spare tire (BFG AT @ 7/32 left on them) let me know.

Thanks

Rear... Here are the pics showing the overall tub which is powedercaoted and has a clearcoat finish. Rear swingout for spare tire. Also has a fold down counter surface. New heavy duty axle with electric brakes, leaf springs and shocks. Tub is bedlined and has a net under the lid for light item storage. Tongue box currently contains a Waeco 110. I'm going to move the 110 to my truck and move my Norcold 60 to the trailer as a freezer. MMMM - ice cream on the trail. Propane tank and dual Optima blue tops are currently in the tub. I'm going to move them to tongue box. Custom made heavy duty poly water tanks (2x 10gal) with skid plates in the chassis under the tub with capped fill holes on the side of the tub. RV water pump. Full lighting around the trailer on all sides and bright led lighting in the tub and in the tongue box. Also has a nifty feature where the RTT tilts up on gas struts to reveal a storage rack on the roof of the tub lid. Currently has a big folding table in there.

I have Yakima snowboard racks that I have never used and my Dad found me some chains for $10 at the Salvation Army last year.....

I have to go this year so if any of you are planning a trip post it up here so I can crash it!
I am kind of a snow snob and prefer Mammoth but I could be persuaded to hit up Snow Summit on a weekday after it dumped some real powder. ]]> Bluetribal http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-socal-80s/334340-snowboard-trips.html <![CDATA[Need two 16" FZJ80 wheels for my new trailer]]> http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-socal-80s/333914-need-two-16-fzj80-wheels-my-new-trailer.html Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:49:02 GMT The subject says it all - after SnT, Heidi and I decided we're ready to buy a trailer. You know, to take our glamping to the next level.

Anyone have a spare wheel for later model 80s sitting around, preferably the one with the dark grey between the spokes? All the ads on MUD are for sets of four.

I'm thinking of starting at canyon sin nombre - going to diablo drop off and into fish creek - hiking to the wind caves if it's not too hot. From fish creek we can head over to Ocotillo Wells and take several trails to get to Borrego Springs as the spirit leads.

Basically I just want to get out of town to enjoy the desert, take some pictures and relax.:cheers: ]]> Dan2722 http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-socal-80s/333429-anza-borrego-friday-11-20-anyone.html Poser Pics http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-socal-80s/333399-poser-pics.html Sat, 14 Nov 2009 19:45:20 GMT With my skid plate and sliders from Bump It Offroad expected to come in next week, I figured it... With my skid plate and sliders from Bump It Offroad expected to come in next week, I figured it would be a good time to prep for the installation since I had some free time this morning. I went ahead and removed the stock running boards and while I was at it I finally did the "spare tire mod" I've been wanting to do (thanks Mark for the hardware), and it didn't stop there. I trimmed my rear mud flaps too. Anyway, after finishing these tasks I was so stoked on how it looked that I decided to drive up the hill to the local 50's track and get some pics.....the first one shows the rear tire tucked up nice and the trimmed flaps as well. The rest, I was just having fun posing. :bounce:

This is a cross post kinda from the 80 tech forum, you guys are local and I know a few of you from other forums or IRL.

I'm thinking about selling my FJ Cruiser and moving to an 80. My little girls have a hard time in the back seat of the FJC and it kills any chance at fun.

Anyone else made the switch? If I do it I imagine I will be spending way more time on this forum (I might anyway :p).

Has anyone here ever taken apart the little motorized actuator that sits on top of the transfer case, that locks and unlocks the center diff?

I've had problems with mine, took it apart and cleaned it up, etc. Now, I think I need to "index" it or something before I return it to the transfer case.

Anyone have any experience with this?

thanks
