A36 hot roll

The 80 front axle housing is prone to bending (where the knuckle ball meets the axle housing) when you start wheeling hard, especially when you have 37s-40s. Whether you're building a kitted out 80 for overlanding on 35s or building a crawler on 40s, adding a gusset to this section of the...

No more broken 4wd! Rebuilt my diffs with Nitro 5.29s and threw an airlocker in the front to eliminate the weak stock spider gears.

I'm in the same boat Ron! No bumpers, no winch, no lockers, and 4wd that doesn't really work I am out unfortunately...

Golden crack, the waterfall on gold bar rim, and hells gate. I was only in Moab for all of 36 hours so we only got to do those two. I didn't run hell gate this time around since it poured rain right before we got there and after having to winch Max up I didn't feel like it was worth it. Ad Ive...

Went down to Moab this last weekend to meet up with some friends from Colorado for the tacomaworld rock therapy event. Almost busted a tie rod on Gold bar rim but had an awesome time. IMG_0468 by Phoenix Black, on Flickr IMG_0442 by Phoenix Black, on Flickr @NutcaseAdam got to try his front...

The seeping grease is pretty common if you have recently lifted the truck. After living most of their life at one angle they tend to get a little pissy when you change that angle which happes when you lift. My passenger side had been leaking for some time and the boot finally blew last week...

You could say things got a little sideways today... IMG_9994 by Phoenix Black, on Flickr IMG_9992 by Phoenix Black, on Flickr IMAG0308 by Phoenix Black, on Flickr IMAG0309 by Phoenix Black, on Flickr I'm missing the pictures of the Montero nearly rolling in the same spot as Aaron, which also...

Count me in. I can't leave until later in the day Friday if that's what ends up happening but I have lights for a reason.

Did a complete overhaul of my front suspension on the 4runner last week to get it ready for a week of wheeling in Colorado with @JohnnyOshow22 and @ttFJC. Got it aligned Friday at 5pm and drove 700 miles to Denver leaving Saturday at 4am without issue. New rack, tie rods, control arm...

I just have the region downloaded on my Hema app. I have USGS Topo, USGS Topo 7.5, and US Thunderforest Outdoors

Dang I don't know how I didn't notice that last night either when I was looking at the map. I think as the backup we just go check out some of the other trails in that area. There seems to be a pretty sizeable complex on that Western side of the tobacco roots

I will have my chainsaw from doing north meadows. Looking forward to exploring some new areas

Either one of those scenarios works for me. Ill just shoot you a text mid Friday to see where I am as far as camping out goes. Evan was saying he wants to run the trail and then camp out Saturday.
