    6X series Unobtainium

    I just saw this on Facebook. Surely these aren't OEM?

    Oh also I think you’re on the right track with timing and carb tune. In my experience 9 mpg is a bit low. There’s a good YouTube video showing how to do a “lean drop” carb tune that I’ve had success with previously. These steps could help with the backfiring, low MPG, and the rough starts. Cheers!

    I am so pumped that Treebeard ended up with you @Berry. This is an amazing community and I know there are many Cruiserheads in South Sound who will welcome you as well! I’ll see you out there. :)

    Some of you will already know this but... I'm selling Treebeard. This truck gave me so much and it helped me to learn that I want to be on the road much more often. Unfortunately, this just isn't the right vehicle for that kind of life, especially since I've never been able to fit into it...

    I don't have time for a full update but I added a few new items to the DONE list on the first post. Highlights include Boss airbags in the rear, a set of 5 new-to-me alloy wheels, and an ARB front bumper! I'm leaving for a trip to Death Valley tomorrow with a group that includes three GX470s and...

    Battery isolator

    PSA dual battery setups do not necessarily have to include an isolator. I have mine wired in parallel with the DS battery grounded and the PS battery connected to load. I also have a 100w solar panel connected to the setup and it provided plenty of capacity for running my fridge, cell phone...

    I have a feeling he'd be able to sell a few of those to mud members :)

    I love that! Is that a custom knob? The OEM "label" on the wooden knob looks fantastic.

    It turns out that you only need to remove 6 rivets for @TRAIL TAILOR ’s rear bumper. :) I also ground down the heads of the other 4 a bit to get the bumper to fit. The fit and finish on this bumper is fantastic. As I was assembling it I keep finding little pieces that show Jason’s attention to...

    Right? Not sure if there’s a spot picked yet but I think it’s supposed to be on the south side this time. You helped! I’ll be sending you an invoice so you can help with the cost too. 😜

    I started chopping away at the rear bumper the other night. These rivets really are stout. Shoutout to my shop mate Divide for helping get 6/10 of them off. My plan is to finish removing the rivets and the cross-member tonight and to bolt on my new Trail Tailor rear bumper tomorrow. Gotta have...

    Apparently I'm bad at trip updates. It's been really important to me to live in the moment instead of documenting. Anyways... I'm back in Seattle! The total trip mileage was probably over 7,000 miles and the truck (almost) never skipped a beat. It blows my mind to be honest. My only breakdown...

    The last three times I’ve filled up it’s been for less than $4.00/gal, thankfully. Also I got 13.25mpg on the last tank. 😁

    I haven’t kept close track but I’m sure it’s more than 4,000 miles by now. I probably have about 3,000 miles still to go. 🙂

    Today’s office near the Mississippi River. There’s not much to report about the cruiser, it’s running great. I’ve gotten about 12.5 mpg since leaving Atlanta and I’m happy with that. I’m trying to stay around 2500rpm on the highway instead of my usual 3000rpm. Trucks hate me. Two weeks ago ACC...

    Haha I’m signed up and I have the days off approved, I don’t think I’ll be backing out this year. :)

    On the road again! I’m heading west to join Roundup this weekend. Tonight I’m camping in Alabama.
