The Cruiser has a higher initial value and resale value. Though the Cruiser has a solid axle in the rear and consumes some of the cargo-area space compared to the Seq, the makes the Cruiser more solid off-road, fully loaded, and when towing. I'm...
The two are not the same in many ways. If ou want it to last "forever" it is the LC. It is not the "legend" it is the reality of how they are designed and built. They do not use the same parts even if some may think otherwise given today platform...
I went with the bubba rope soft shackles, kinetic ropes and tree savers, and factor 55 snatch blocks (I think they called them ‘rope rentention pulleys) and other closed loop winching items. The bubba rope seemed to have the highest weight...
Ok. Guess we’ll see what happens. Last time I followed dealer recommendations on fluid type I got to 450k (and counting) with my 100. I think the primary plus is changing the fluid regularly.
Heh, fair enough. If I had s bunch of $ I'd love to go this route, but I'm limited on my annual upgrade budget.
Another way of looking at the $1000 vs $400 question for me is "Do I get a good fridge and continue using my portable Superflo air...
I am DONE with a cooler full of ice and water soaking burger juice into my fresh food and beer can lids, and I'm looking at purchasing a fridge for my next summer trip. I know everyone loves Dometic and ARB, but I'm curious what other successful...
Saved a ton.... Thanks a 1000 !!!!! (or to be exact 1459)
Stumbled on this today... the last day!
Last week it just so happens I committed to getting my 5.7 3UR-FE all ready for its next 150K miles...
Chain Tensioners, Alternator, Starter, Plus...
Very good video and well explained.
I'm sure the chief engineers and road crew were like "wtf is this dude doing" when he started to pull out his paper templates and tape measure.
I agree that the way to look at this is the relative differences...
I appreciate the consideration and not blowing it off. Things may have changed recently I don't know. May be worth a call to the park HQ? That area is in the park and not BLM. I have seen fairly large groups along other parts of Fish Creek wash...
Thank you. I think that's a fair comment. Things have changed over the years and there's at least one major bypass that people use to go up. Still, with a potentially large group, this deserves a re-think. Fish Creek Primitive camp is...
Several SoCal locals have been throwing around the idea of a weekend LC BLM Camping trip. Here's my attempt to get one together. I know there's a separate forum for this, but hopefully the mods will be kind enough to leave this in the...
Yes it's usually pretty even, though towards the end it will drop on the passenger side a little bit.. so fold your mirrors in, then err to the DS a little bit towards the end, you'll be good. I did this last year in a 200, with an awning on...
I thought people might be interested in my Canadian rebuild. Before and after photos! Just kidding - every bolt had to extracted and all four screws for the engine compartment had to be ground off. Note that I had to replace this as the mounting...
IMO the only reason to use the high-end fluid is extended change intervals. Extended change intervals might be fine in a vacuum or a pavement-bound rig, but do nothing to address accumulation of debris and contamination (clutch material, small...
Is the HE LC the only LC of its generation available with no third row? I don't follow the HE thing closely, I'm not that into bronze wheels. The Slee Off-Road HE, though? That's a different story. That thing is cool.
The threads on "biggest tire size" are overwhelming because this question gets asked so much there are an overwhelming number of threads to read... But here are the easy answers:
1) Common bigger sizes are 275/70R18 (a bit over 33" tall and...
Hi all, can anyone help me out with the size of the single screw which is on the inboard side of the sun visor? I mean the one that his the plastic clip to the headliner, close to the rear view mirror.
Thanks in advance.
Alright, I read that. I hear you. What I'd really love to do is be able to drive a bunch of different tires back to back, same vehicle in the same conditions. If only. I do agree with you that even us Overlanders drive a lot of highway miles...
