Needed some red n whites when I'm out responding to an EMS or MVA call if I'm arriving in my POV. They're really important when heading on an EMS call on private property at night where the residents pull firearms on unknown persons (their...
Having gotten rid of a few vehicles I "loved" over the years, and then been filled with regret to the point of buying them back, I would advocate keeping the GX if you really do love it. That adage about loving something and letting it go is...
I wouldn’t f around with a coolant leak. Even though its not an aluminum block, it might probably would still mean a rebuild if you overheat. They always get worse and its never at a convenient time or place.
I am a fan of this idea. I built my own platform out of 20/20 aluminum and it didn't cost anything close to $600. But it works well, I am 6'2" and can lay straight out if I want to, with my head against the drivers seat back...
Finished installing the 1/4 inch aluminum skids from Talon's Garage on my '23 GX460. I don't rock crawl and at most, go on rutty dirt roads, so my primary concerns are weight, protecting the cats, and corrosion/salt. I bought the complete set on...
Finally got some (rather poor) photos of the new suspension. To review what I bolted on, refer back to Page: 45, Post #885 in this thread.
So far less rub when turning, but haven't stretched them out on any trails yet to see how compression and...
Hi All,
Finally decided to make the purchase of a KZJ78. This one is currently making its way over and should hopefully be here in a few weeks. This will be my new daily, and I have a bunch of mods planned for it so thought I'd just start a...
As I mentioned in my build post regarding the transmission service, my transmission guys says as long as it stays under 300ºF, no worries. Low to mid 200º'F is very normal and acceptable.
Well, I went a different way. I went with TransK9 kennels to protect my babies. We did a trip to the mountains 2 weeks ago and the seatbelt harnesses tethered to the floor looked uncomfortable, and while they wouldn’t have flown across the car...
We were on a pretty rough two track out of the central Oregon dunes. We were aired up to highway pressures prior to departure. One of the bolts had worked its way out (the one I found on the skid) threads still in good shape. I think the lack of...
Prepairing for a long trip to Montana this morning, while removing my front skid plate for an oil change a large bolt dropped on the ground. A bit confused I start to look and the area the alignment shop would have been working the day before as...
