    Place to ship trucks for Rubicon trip?

    Thanks everyone for the help & suggestions. As Matzell noted most of the carriers are wanting a wide leeway for pickup and delivery scheduling. Also the rest of my group is now leaning towards adding Moab into the route so this would really complicate the shipping idea. It's looking like we're...

    Place to ship trucks for Rubicon trip?

    Yep, I am asking for guaranteed delivery & pickup dates in CA so that flights could be scheduled accordingly. Pickup in FL & delivery back to FL not as critical so hopefully they can quote the flexibility on that side.

    Build His 80 and Her 80 tandem build thread

    Wow, all in with the Hamilton kit! I have a 2013 Ram 2500 6.7 and it tows the 80 and all my spares/camping gear so well. I just towed to Uwharrie and back this weekend with a bone stock trans and it never got over 172°. When I went to Windrock in June I think it only got up to 190° for a short...

    Place to ship trucks for Rubicon trip?

    Duly Noted LOL. We will have 2 trucks with knowledge of the trail helping us through but yes I was thinking out & back may be too optimistic in the current timeline. Jack Russel sounds like it could be a cool landing spot that we'd all happily Patron! I will discuss with the guys. Thank you!

    Place to ship trucks for Rubicon trip?

    The current thinking was to start the trail at Loon and then either run backward to Loon or take the highway back ultimately depending on schedule. My 80 or possibly Crew cab Cab Frontier would be the biggest vehicles. Everyone else has Xterras or single cab Frontiers / Hardbodies. Would your...

    Place to ship trucks for Rubicon trip?

    Sacramento would be awesome! I reached out to Stellar Built already as I know that is where their shop is. They said they didn't know of anyone that could help. First week of August. Current talks are of being on the trail from 8/2 to 8/6 so I'd need a day or two before and after to make sure...

    Place to ship trucks for Rubicon trip?

    Several buddies and I are planning a Rubicon trip in August 2027. We are all on the east side of the USA from Ohio to Miami, FL. Rather than spending 8 days of rushed out and back on the interstate I'd rather fly out and spend more time exploring area trails. Does anyone know of a safe yard...

    Best aftermarket brake booster consensus?

    I did drive the truck around more yesterday and the brakes feel fine. As long as this booster lasts I’ll be happy with the aftermarket one from Cruiser Teq. Also the brake switch cushions from Amazon fit well. $5 for 12 of them is hard to beat.

    Best aftermarket brake booster consensus?

    USPS was 3 days late on Priority Mail but I finally got the booster in from Cruiser Teq and got it installed today. My ABS has already been deleted and even with the additional room to work and taking off the clevis going to the pedal first I was barely able to get this replaced without jacking...

    Best aftermarket brake booster consensus?

    Thanks all for the replies. That PDI option looks cool but needing to get this going by next week I went ahead and bought the unit from Cruiser Teq since they had it in stock with the gaskets and could get it shipped today.

    Best aftermarket brake booster consensus?

    Has anyone used the one cruiserteq sells? They look to be in stock and have the firewall & M/C gaskets all in one stop. https://cruiserteq.com/aftermarket-brake-booster-fits-1993-1997-fzj80-f-r-disc-applications-bbn60792aft/?searchid=0&search_query=brake+booster

    Best aftermarket brake booster consensus?

    '93 FZJ80 and randomly have wooden brakes this morning. Looks like my booster went out because with or without the vac line hooked up brakes feel the same. I've already deleted the ABS and have a new AISIN master cylinder / OEM booster vac hose I installed about 6mo ago. No signs of fluid loss...
