Pop down and checkout Sand Hollow if you can extend your stay in Utah. If you plan ahead, register for the Kokopelli Run that starts on Monday before Cruise Moab starts on Thursday. It's an overland style trip with 2 nights camping that starts in Colorado and ends just outside Moab. If your...

What year? I also would not assume an engine rebuild. The 1F and 2F engines are pretty bullet proof and too dumb to die. The electrical is very basic. Because you suspect electrical issues, breakout or buy a multimeter (less than $30 and an invaluable tool). If nothing happens when you turn the...

I have seen multiple FJ40's sporting full MT cages with both factory and real steel bows (the curve of the bows will not be a factor). Unless the installer of the MT cage went out of the way to raise the height of the cage for a tall end user, it should fit. The closest point of interference...

WANTED: USED or extra On-Board Air Compressor for Air Locker Differentials and Tire Inflation I'm looking for an air compressor to hard mount in my daughter's 3rd Gen 4Runner. I'm hoping someone has one laying around not being used. PM me if you might have something. Please note, I already...

Not surprised. Side-by-sides ignored the signs and cut a slew of new trails everywhere, turning it into a Hell's Landscape. They had to grade the road to get the heavy trucks in with the boulders to make the barriers side-by-side proof. The road is there to provide access for the Forest Service...

SOLD: Used 22 gallon plastic auxiliary fuel tank with custom skid plate for an FJ40. $100 obo This is the heavy duty plastic unit sold by Mark's Off Road (refer to stock image of a new kit below). It mounts under the tub and can be used in a single or dual tank set-up to extend your range...

The Rollercam straps are much easier to cinch down tightly than NRS straps. They are very smooth to operate and from that perspective are a better design, but they use thinner, lower WLL, and softer and therefore less durable webbing, and they are overpriced compared to NRS straps IMHO. NRS...

Matbe I'm missing something, but I'm not finding a decent map for the Cove using OnX Offroad. I have OnX and used it in Moab and on the Rubicon Trail earlier this year, but the Cove OHV area on the OnX map doesn't appear to have real detail maps showing all the trails (certainly no trail...

Chris...hands down.

Does anyone have a spare one of these laying around? I want to trade out the factory steel spare wheel for a matching wheel on my '18 T4R.

Yeah, Toyota brought 2 versions of the new Land Cruiser to Moab this year for display at the Vendor night, but kept them locked so we couldn't really look inside. Gave away some swag and showcased their new relationships with ARB, Dometic, and other overlander product companies. First time since...

Thanks Charlton! I was able to clean it up per Ryan's advice. Looks like the bearing surface is not impacted.

These are the axle seals from hell. No visible signs of leakage, so they sealed well, but were close to impossible to pull out.

Just a quick(?) knuckle rebuild/brake job on the 40...just in the nick of time too! Found the source of intermittent squealing...lower passenger steering knuckle bearing was gone....a few roller bearings and a mangled cage with associated carnage to the bearing cap was all that was left...
