We leave it all set up, for 3-4 days. Quite an investment was made for this location. It is basically just a campground/RV/cabin place and we rented a big section of it for our basecamp.

I'm staying in a cabin, but have to change cabins Friday morning because they didn't have the same one available every night. Can I pile my random stuff at the campsite so I don't have to worry so much with shuffling it around?
 
This should go well with beer at the pot luck.....

TENTS AND CANOPIES SHOULD BE FINE...JUST MAKE SURE THEY ARE STAKED OUT VERY WELL...GUSTS OF WINDS CAN TAKE THEM DOWN QUICKLY AND EASILY...AND PLEASE ...PLEASE ...PLEASE...KEEP YOUR COOLERS IN YOUR LAND CRUISER OR TRAILERS AT NIGHT, DURING THE DAY WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING, AND MOST OF THE TIME WHEN NOT IN FULL USE AT CAMP! THANK YOU!
 
Monday morning we got to stop by LC Heritage Museum in SLC. I know many of you probably have already been there but since it was my first I'll share my drooling! Definitely something for everyone! Hard core crawlers, overlanding, mildly modified, stock, special edition rigs, all flavors!
Big thank you to Kyle who shared a bit of details on some of the very cool stuff they have there and for the patience while I had to struggle to keep my 2 1/2yo away from everything!!!:mad:

Sarah fell in love with the green/cream 55 in the first pic! Now she wants one but she also wants a GX!

I now have fully functioning brakes after rebuilding my master cylinder. This also solved my problem of having to give what I thought was excessive throttle input to begin moving. Hopefully my mileage will go up a little as I think the master cylinder leaking by was causing the brake calipers to drag some.

I also used the opportunity to install my slee extended frame to rear axle brake lines.

This was all extremely simple thanks to the amazing write ups here on mud and having techstream for the abs bleeding.
 
How necessary is this? I'm worried now...
All depends on your setup. Long rear shocks and certain coils could want to get a loose and perhaps come unseated at maximum flex, however, it would have to be the absolute perfect storm. I've been on trails with other types of trucks that have way too much down travel (no sway bars, etc. ) and haven't seen a coil just fall out. I would classify this as not necessary 99% of the time on a 100 Series.

I once had a rear coil of my 3rd gen 4Runner fall out on the trail. 2 zip ties kept it in place just fine for the rest of the trail

Basically, anything with food in it, right?
