I think about selling my 80 to build something with tons and 40s a lot to be honest. It’s hard to be angry at something newer that you can build like a Lego. Bolt in cage, bolt on link kits, bolt on big axles/ brakes, ls swaps are stupid easy. It...
Depends on what type of tail your on. If rock Crawling a Stock Rubicon JK is very hard to beat and with mild upgrades can keep up with a lot of buggies. I have owned three and in no way could I build an equal vehicle for the cost of a JK. However...
The whole which-one-is-best issue would have been solved decades ago IF Toyota had done what they often do... Put a new powerplant in an existing platform a year prior to introducing a new model.
IE, a 4.7 liter V8 80. Game over.
I never said 3FE is better than 1FZ. my problem is ppl on MUD discriminating 3FE just because they think 1FZ is best thing since slice bread. There is a difference and i am just watching out for the 3FE peeps and not letting this gone rogue. I...
Haha....I love all platforms of vehicles. Our Jeep guys are just a bunch of experienced rock crawlers that used to drive toyotas back in the days...Nothing against jeeps, they are just out there having fun and don't discriminate ppl like me...
My Jeep group just finished Barrett Lake, Rubicon and Sierra Trek this year, 9 jeeps with only 1 minor trail repair, while my other Yota group with 7 80 series doing just the Rubicon this past weekend and had 12 breakdowns total. Broken track...
A factory Rubicon JL will fit 37s in stock trim, already comes with f/r lockers, sway bar disconnect, sliders. and all the goodies to tackle the Rubicon without fuss...Don't think a stock 80s can do that without body damage
New cockpit electronics upgrade:
Sony XAV-AX5650 Headunit
Custom dash mounted USB connectors in the useless cubby hole for above
Sony XS-FB1030 4" speakers in the dash mounts and rear doors. My rig didn't come with front door speakers even...
Increasing range is just a matter of adding batteries. So pretty easy. The catch is that the specific way I built this vehicle adding more batteries is possible but not seamless. I plan on adding another 30kwh in the gas tank area ASAP but it's...
Before you go crazy with the gears on the seats. Undo the bolts to the floor and tilt the seats back. Look at the nylon end caps and see if they are unscrewed. If they are screw them back in till the seats work again. Then find a way to keep them...
I can honestly say that SAS is partially about hitting the trails and mostly about getting people together that would normally not get the chance. Once again we are humbled by the community, especially with the support of Ouray Mountain Rescue...
Didn’t think of that. I can’t stand to eat in a vehicle so don’t do drive thru ever.
The “honey butter chicken biscuit” at WB is one of the greatest things ever.
