I have three 4runner wheels from maybe 2016 era vintage that were mounted on my xventure trailer by previous owner. Pics below. I have boxes to ship two of them (you pay for shipping and email label), the mounted one I'd rather sell locally but if you want all three arrangements can be made...

Sold tent and awning. Keeping trailer for now.

You can see the alternator clearly from the right front wheel well. I get anxious when using car wash wands around it. I wonder if adding shielding to the wheel well would matter much for protection of the alternator in the edge cases... ie when the water is lower than top of wheel, but is...

100% NFW. Ok, maybe if I was fleeing headhunters in New Guinea, or somehow had escaped a prison with the warden's daughter and an angry militia behind me... but just cuz my buddy said, "you got this, look Jermain over there made it...." NFW.

80% of me says with friends like this, who needs enemies. The other 20% says its nice to have people around you that believe in you :rofl:

I think I saw you driving in Santa Fe a few days ago, no? My wife said there goes our doppelgänger.

I'm heading back east on I40 in a few weeks.... would love to know where this spot is. heading west 10 months ago we stopped at Echo Bluffs state park northwest of Memphis. water was crazy clear

Nabbed one of the last spots. First time. Looking forward to it.

Jesus. Coming from a Tacoma, when I brought my 200 home I felt like I was in a monster truck. Granted lifting and upsizing tires completely changes 200 from dealer stock form, but still, this photo makes the 200 look like a eurosized economy car. I'm guessing the wide angle lens is...

@dubyahard I can tell you that you saved about a grand versus having a dealer do it, that included a couple hours investigating... My use case was similar when it failed (albeit at 25K mile mark). stuck in snow ditch, wheels at lock... The working diagnosis was that air was introduced somehow...

Yes Matt was great to work with. I had a few last minute changes (switched side of fridge) and he was quick to respond and keep me updated on progress. I like the setup a year or so in. I wish I could find the marine stainless spring loaded hardware lay flat tie downs they used so I could...

In the movie there’s a Qatari dude that cruises around in his lambo with his pet cheetah riding shotgun. But lambos can’t fit kennels so mr cheetah is not really safe. Such are the dilemmas of Gulf life.

Appears not. Spray pattern on hood mat and surrounds near the resevoir. underside was caked with snow/ice/mud which they sprayed off looking for leaks elsewhere. dealer refilled and drove around a bit but found no leaks. New pump and fluid and all is right for now.

I was told the pump itself is not necessarily heavy duty, so its not going to survive for long if its stressed for an "extended period." Subjective I know. But if you were locked up and turning on pavement, especially stationary or back and forth lock to lock, its more likely you damaged the...
