Heck Tony, I'd put money in a tip jar for that, I would enjoy hearing that history, let us know when & where to gather.

Welded up, painted and installed my Huddexpo crossmember-skid plate. Very happy with the added protection.

Took some photos.

Dude... it was insane. Roll over to Titus on the DV side and decide to go for a hike and who rolls in immediately after us. Andy. It was crazy.

Same. I remember an elderly fellow who would give historical talks at these events some years ago. I had the pleasure of talking him up once and him giving me a one-on-one tour/talk about the area... :cool:

Andy was down there again too? I ran into him last month at warm springs camp. They fed me that time. :lol:

Old wheeling/NorCal/Rubithon/desert friends you run into when doing desert-rat shït… A nice dinner-night with my good, old friend Andy on North Titus Canyon Rd @Cruiserdrew And another great night with my friend Nial at Saline Valley Warm...

All of the structures were in incredible shape. Yes, water in pool. But lots of damage from sand. We hiked up to the source pool.

Nice to see Stella Anderson’s cabin still standing, and looking like it did last time we were there. Were the Geologist and Russell cabins in good shape? Water in the swimming pool at Warm Springs?

If any one is interested in meeting up, Emily and I will be in Death Valley bikepacking/hiking/camping for about 10 days. Tentative Itin is to do the Northern Loop (Eureka Dunes, Dedeckera, Steele, Saline, Lippencott, Racetrack); then a...

Maybe... :hhmm:

Truck in shop. Powertrain assembly starts in May. Hoping to make it!

Installed the summer wheels/tires

If you do have a parasitic draw you'll need a multimeter to run it down. Disconnecting the negative terminal and measuring the amperage between the terminal and the post will let you know how bad the draw is. Then it's down to removing fuses and...

I posted some pics of my ‘92 fresh out of the paint shop a couple of weeks ago. Since then I reinstalled the rack, jack, lights, and ladder. About all that’s left since paint is re-spooling and reinstalling the Warn EVO winch. I’m switching from...

I often see people in the forum comment on how much of a dog their 1FZFE is. Well here is a video of mine. Dead stop to 50mph. Engine is new (not rebuilt, new) 16,000 miles ago. Stock gears and 315’s, no other mods, elevation is about 2,500ft...

I've been trying to run down starter and battery problems for a while now. The starter problem plagued us on a long trip down in South America but we thought for a while that it was a faulty battery terminal connection or a problem with the...

Another batch of case hardened press tools are ready to ship. Available on the website. Trailtailor.com Jason Trail Tailor

Finally wrapped up my quad headlight conversion with using Holley Retrobright headlights. Rather than document all the detail, I'll just put the video links here which cover everything you'd wanna know about converting to quads Part 1 Part 2...

🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 somebody came through death valley "with an ugly stick".

Same, but I call this “The Three Ninety Sevens.”

Could be a torn intake hose, the larger one that runs from air cleaner to throttle body. If older/stiff these can break when handled to remove the TB and can then be mostly "closed" at idle but open up and let a lot of air in under loads when...
