    Mini excursion friday to saturday? Crown King maybe?

    There's a lake near crown king. I think it's horsethief lake and has bluegill. If the fire damage isn't bad, I might want to go. Never been up the back way to crown king. I'm looking for an off road fishing trip later this week.

    Thanks BMAN for the rack advice.

    I brought my rig down to sonic and BMAN asked if the rack sat too high. Told him it was the listed kit for the 60 and he said I should look into it. 8 phone calls and several measurements later and I dropped the rack as close to the roof as possible. Almost 2 inches lower! The rack is an ORU...

    A/C stops blowing cold at idle.

    My A/C stops blowing cold at idle. Is this normal. Idles at around 600- 700 RPM. If I stick my foot on the gas and bring the RPMs up over a thousand, I start to feel the lovely cold. Is something amiss? Thanks, Toad

    FJ60 jack- which one and where to put it?

    Back in the day, a Hi Lift fit in my truck. I'm not sure where I would put one in the 60. No rack or special bumpers either. I also see newfangled ballon jacks from ARB that can be stowed in the wagon... Share your wisdom with me. Thanks

    I think we start in your backyard. We'll probably camp at Crab Flats b4 heading South.

    How to carry a 33" spare on an FJ60?

    Dirt highways When the main highway is straightish and dirt, I tend to go over 50 MPH. Sounds slow but a pothole can sneak up on you fast. Follow me down to Cabo Last week of July so you can verify the fishtale.

    How to carry a 33" spare on an FJ60?

    One spare in the stock location The other in the back of the wagon wedged between the cooler and the dog crate.... I do like 2 spares in Mexico. Call me paranoid or call me llanda usadas.

    How to carry a 33" spare on an FJ60?

    Why 2 spares? In Baja, I sometimes get 2 flats at the same time from hitting big potholes or rocks with a front and then a rear tire. Same thing happened to my cousin when we pre ran part of the 1000 this year. In a rental jeep. ( wicked grin goes here. ) And thanks for the KTM lesson. I just...

    How to carry a 33" spare on an FJ60?

    mY LATEST THOUGHTS BASED ON YOUR SAGE WISDOM I'm thinking about getting (2) BFG 33x9.5 tires on the stock rims as spares. One under the rear- won't hang down as much as a 12.5 and one in the back of the wagon- sort of a compact spare as it were. Or might be. Not as nice as the 12.5s on the...
