Nice pics, I really like the stance with those swampers.

how far from santiago chile are you?

my aunt and uncle have Calama wines. Pablo has asked me to bring my fj40 down there and wheel. They said i could load it up on one of their ships.

I havent talked to them for a while, but may get up with them to take my 40 down there for a month or so.

I'm live in Santiago, but I work in a Farm in Lolol (3 hours from Santiago).
This pics are from Pucon (about 750 km from Santiago).
If you want to go to chile you are welcome, we can made some trips. depend of the station (Summer is sand, rocks and some trips like this pictures, Winter is Mud, mud and more mud). also you can visit Twisted Andes - El Primer Portal Tcnico Offroad de Latinoamerica is a forum like this, but in chile (I'm one of the owners), it is on spanish only.

mpistolpj · 05-23-08, 02:52 PM

i really dig it.. the width from the fj60 axles really help the stance...

Mace · 05-23-08, 10:34 PM

What psi do you run in the sand???

flozano · 05-23-08, 11:25 PM

depends of the tire. but from 4 to 10 PSI
Less PSI is better. but 8 PSI is a good choice.
