I used to work at Tom Wood's and while I don't think I need to sell you on them, seeing how the sausage is made was actually quite interesting. Everyone in that shop is a craftsman that truly takes pride in their work, and the attention to...

Double lockers are a great party trick for taking the insano line when the jeep guys are watching. :D Never helped me get somewhere I needed to go in the sense that I could have taken an easier line with a single locker, but the challenging line...

Took out the 3rd row seats with the help of NKP Garage's video and put in the Toyota LC all weather cargo mat(without 3rd row). Very straightforward removal - 4 14mm bolts on each side and unclipping 3 or 4 electrical connectors. Highly...

My 200 finally got her gears and lockers installed this week. 🙂 Revolution 4.88's and Eaton E-Lockers. I had the R&P's sent to WPC for treatment and then cryo too. Looking forward to getting her dirty! #lockersbeforelightbars

Full disclosure, I love Miatas

Got around to the back seat. Picked up a filthy seat back a while ago and didn't expect much from the upholstery. Figured I'd have to swap mine over. stripped it down for cleaning. Washed the fabric and was amazed. Actually came out really nice...

I've started getting back into track days because a couple of my close friends had midlife crises, ended up with exotic sports cars, and now I've got FOMO. My DD is a tesla (which is stupid fast in a straight line, meh on a track), I have modded...

Took advantage of the chance to go run Broken Arrow during a family reunion in Flagstaff. This was two of the nephews' first time offroading, and they loved it!

Somebody get this guy some new wiper arms! ...or a can of spray paint :o

To me that suggests you spilled some up top and it worked its way down to the exterior of the oil pan over the course of a couple days. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah, Toyota FPIG. I had to replace mine when the Lexus dealership cross threaded my drain plug and ugga dugga'd the hell out of it.

Made it home from our epic trip. Some stats for those interested. Total Miles: - 6118 Fuel Used: - 388.41 Gallons Fuel Cost: - $1,156.40 Average MPG: - 15.75 Best MPG: - 18.1 (I29 NB with a tail wind) Worst MPG: - 6.5 (any of the trails we did)...

My wife and I spent 10 days in Bears Ears back in May. We do a lot of football tailgating so my setup is a blend of tailgating and car camping. We work well together setting up the Gazelle and EZ up.

Spent five nights in this spot (south-eastern British Columbia). Came home on day 6 absolutely exhausted (we were supposed to spend a few more nights here and then head to a provincial park for another week of camping). This is our favourite...

315x75x16 Toyo AT3 2.5 inch lift with OME shocks and TJM springs

Yes, there is a Colorado state tax incentive. It's $4k for purchases, I'm not sure exactly how they math that out for a lease, but the incentive is available for leases as well.

You can do a sensor lowering in the rear if there is still adjustment left in the rear sensor bracket. If not, you can use the height offset utility in techstream. It would also lower the rear position in N and H, fyi, and may not be ideal when...

Some pics from my Morocco eastern trip

Here you go.I really miss the Van, it was a 2005 E150 that I purchased form the original owner with less then 40k mi. I scored a 2007 F350 4x4 rolling chassis less the Eng.& Tran. and used the axles & suspension for the 4x4 conversion. The...

FYI, my brother just signed a 2-year lease on a Nissan leaf for, I s*** you not, $5.86 per month. He showed me his paperwork, it is legit. That payment might get some more people considering EV if anyone knew about it. Back to the not-topic, I...

Here’s the 911. I’ll get a pic of all three together once the LC arrives. And our daughter’s CX5. Ha.

More to come. These are dealer pics (BMW Freeport NY). I had a friend check it out. It’s being delivered to me in MN

There’s something about getting certain pieces together that gives you momentum…

Changed out my front seat cushions and put on new seat covers. Also upgraded speakers, amp, head unit, and remote start alarm system.

We have a 5th gen RX350h in the household as the practical and still-comfortable counterpoint to my wonderful gas-guzzling road trip and terrain-capable GX. I too have a deposit on a Scout Traveler (the all electric variant). For $100...
