    250 Land Cruiser vs. Hell’s Revenge — My Experience

    I chose not to take the "traditional" exit due exactly what your saying. Prior to this trip the last time I was on Hells Revenge was 10 years ago. My understanding is due to washout and heavy traffic the traditional exit has gotten fairly challenging due to sharp shelves and drop offs. Due to...

    250 Land Cruiser vs. Hell’s Revenge — My Experience

    Just got back from a fun trip to Moab, UT and ran a few trails, those being Fins & Things as well as Hurrah Pass, but wanted to share my experience in my LC250 on Hell's Revenge.

    Preparing to install my Dissent Off-Road winch wiring kit to run power from rear battery into engine bay. Needed a solution to mount my Garmin Powerswitch, negative bus bar and power shut off to winch when not in use. Did a bit of Cardboard CAD work to come up with a solid mounting solution...

    Excited to be back!

    After a bit of a hiatus from the Land Cruiser platform I'm excited to be back on IH8MUD. I have enjoyed ownership of an FJ40, FZJ80 and UZJ100 over the years and decided it was time to sell my Tacoma and purchase a 2026 LC 250. Purchased new in January of this year and dove right in making it...

    Anyone local have a spring compressor that would be willing to let me swing over with my Dobinson IMS strut assemblies to quickly compress the spring for me to adjust the preload on my coil seats?

    Slee Offroad Front Bumper (post yours)

    I have been researching full front bumpers for my 2026 LC250 build and I'm leaning towards the direction of Slee Offroads. Truth be told I have always been big fan of their products, but I have not been able to see this bumper in person. Next best option is to ask if you have this bumper please...

    ZZ's M416 style trailer build

    After a bit of testing i found that the original "kickstand" I modified made it very difficult to lift the front of the trailer, unlock the kickstand to flip it up to attached to the hitch. After a lot of consideration I purchased a beefy trailer tongue jack. Had to modify it by cutting and...

    ZZ's M416 style trailer build

    A few updates to share. I upgraded the wheels to match my Tacoma. Had to put on wheel spacers for the grease cap to clear the center caps. Actually prefer the wider stance the spacers provided adding potentially a bit more stability for the trailer.
