    Toyota Hilux spotted today.......if it matters ??

    I have nothing valuble to add. Except that i am in Argentina now on some remote propertys. Hilux are the vehicle to have down here. So many nice trucks and all i do is dream about taking one home. It doesn't hurt that the US exchange rate is insane right now if you get cash US currency down...

    What is the Toyota SW4 Fortune (South America market)?

    Today we also cruised around in a Hyundai Galloper. Kind of reminds me of a Isuzu Trooper. Maybe they are the same? Or just another cool south america diesel?

    What is the Toyota SW4 Fortune (South America market)?

    I road around in a SW4 today in Southern Argentina. Didnt get to drive it but it was nice. Comfy and felt very solid. Does anyone know what the SW4 is based on? Obviously we cant have one in the states. But i always enjoy the trucks they have down here. Edit:a little google search and it looks...

    Wouldyou buy a house in Butte?

    Thanks guys. Sounds like i should drive through it again and see how the vibe feels to me. I am a little strange about the type of people i want to live around in my community. Not to sound clique but I tend to be conservative with a heavy lean torwards "freedom" and staying the hell out of...

    Wouldyou buy a house in Butte?

    I have asked this before but i am back on this kick. Looking for a affordable house. Just my wife and I, no kids and dont care about schools. We reLly like Helena which I know isnt "expensive" but it ain't cheap. We looked atcrappy old Butte a year ago and i left thinking no way. But i have to...

    Dobinson 2 inch lift 94 80 series

    You cant really go by what lifts say in inches for a particular size tire. It has a lot to do with weight of the truck. Try to find a truck with a similar build weight as yours and see the center hub to fender flair they ended up with. Dont quote me but for 35s you dont need much. Maybe...

    Driving part time 4WD truck in snow

    No issue for me. 94 has no airbags and my ABS is removed.

    Driving part time 4WD truck in snow

    This was one of the reasons for the conversion. Stuff like this. Also if went to a tall lift I could avoid all the front line vib issues more easily. But mostly it was classic while i am in there thinking.

    Driving part time 4WD truck in snow

    Thanks for all the info guys. To address a few things, yes i leave the hubs locked all winter. If i could do it all over again i would have left it AWD. I redid the TC years ago and swapped in Marlin low range gears and 10% over high range gears. In mub fashin i figured "while i am in there..."...

    Tool loaner thread… not for mooches.

    I am usually the guy that needs stuff from other people. But I do have a Toyota rear hub tool for the 80 and the 54(?)mm socket for the front hub. There are other ways to do the job without these, but it is nice to have proper fitting tools. In Helena if I can help anyone.

    Driving part time 4WD truck in snow

    Guys sorry I already asked this in the past. I converted my 80 to part time 4wd when i was living in Georgia. Now I am in Montana and kind of wish I had the full time 4WD when driving around on snow covered roads. I grew up in the northeast and i am used to driving in the snow there. But...

    Lava Mountain Trail near Helena?

    I rode past this trail today on my motorcycle. One end looked pretty challenging. I will post up a picture later. Has anyone done this trail? The end i saw looked like a pretty tough trail for you guys looking to looking for that. I didnt walk up the hill to the obstical. Maybe it was not as...

    Where would you move in Montana?

    We drove through Phillipsburg, Anaconda and Butte today. Sorry if i offend anyone but Butte is kind of a dump. I did see some nice areas i would live in but overall it didnt do it for me. Anaconda was a possibility. Not as bad as thought it would be. I dont think i could live in one of the super...
