Been several SAS folks through the RustyNailRacing shop this week to keep all our friends going. If you need help before you head home don't hesitate to holler! Justin 970-261-9757

Checked out some new to me trails around Wood lake 😎

So @shanko and I have been having fun on the way home. Just east of Moriarity, New Mexico, Sean blew his panhard bracket to bits, kept it on the road and narrowly avoided getting squished on the highway by a tractor trailer. We cobbled it back...

Another speed mod today. The stripe gave it many horsepowers so a fancy grill badge should add torques. Right?

Eaton is junk for Toyota diffs. The is the second rear I have had fail. Also the unlocking and non-instant locking is terrible on technical obstacles.

Thanks. Me too. I know a dealer could have swapped a transmission, but it’s reassuring to have Slee examine it first and not just default to “oh you need a new transmission”. And to know they’ll have an opportunity to go over the mechanical bits...

This ended up being caused by a bad tone ring. Threw the entire AHC out of whack because it couldn’t determine wheel speed, so it went into limp mode.. Easy fix, but I’m deleting AHC anyway. It’s time for an offroad specific suspension.

74weld on record focusing current development efforts on the LC200 and 2nd gen Tundra

Long time lurker, first time poster... Finally got my hands on a 2008 JDM LC200 (with a 4.7L V8 (2UZ-FE) engine, cloth interior, no sunroof, no KDSS, just gen1 crawl control) with 51K kms! ~4 months after winning the auction, it finally got...

So I have been running the 80 without visors for years and finally decided to call and get a set. Great timing, they are releasing an 80 series specific set now. I think they start shipping in august and look to be $15 more that the original...

a couple rafts.

Couple pics from today

Quick trip to the Owhyee for some camping…until the wind, rain and lightning made us go home with a soaked tent. Kids still had fun though

Why is this bench seat set up so cool. Beach run, fishing trip, a bird shoot..... Cant wait to get this rolling... soon.

Back from the paint shop! Cheers

The campsite we're now in is the St Mary's KOA near Glacier NP which is all we could score reservation-wise. It is uninteresting view-wise however it's full hookup which is nice after boondocking at Mammoth for 12 days. (Hint: the wife likes...

Consensus is only that boosting the motor changes the dynamics of the PCV system such that intake manifold will not be lower pressure than crankcase at boost. The “so what” is dependent on your motor condition, your own interpretation of...

I had this spot to myself last night. The Aussie solar shades are large to pack, but the privacy they provide is amazing. I used to have a homemade set made out of reflective insulation you can get at the big box stores. These are so much nicer.

In the middle of a two month trip and both Cruiser and new 25' camper have been great. From the Catskills of NY to Moab and a couple weeks in Colorado and NM. The 200 has a new ECU and I wanted to make sure this was absolutely true in all...

Stage 1 on a truck with 35’s and 4:10s with a 350k+ mile trans made 64 horse more and 100 more ftlbs to the ground on 7 lbs. Ground #’s 146 hp to 210 and 190 ftlbs to 290. “stage 1” on 93 should be able to produce more because of the more...

yes. yes, it is.
