Helped some moto guys who were way over their head on Orphir pass, bouncing off rocks with over inflated tires. One guy was very close to sending his 20k BMW GS over the edge. Took about an hour to get them up this section;

Our last leg was visiting Caity's parents in Lake Mead, Arizona on the backside of the Grand Canyon. Checked out Hoover dam on the way;

Nice update!
 
Awesome and still have your Cali plates!
 
Very cool!
My buddy just bought 60 acres that butts up against the BLM land that sits against Crater Lake park.
I've been driving down from Portland once a month to help him clear some space for his house. Exploring and camping down there has been amazing (and cold).

Looks like an amazing trip you had!

Thanks it was a blast!

Some prime real estate right there! Really enjoyed that area, good luck helping your buddy
 
Since this is also a build thread- Haven't done much lately but rack up a ton of miles and normal maintenance but I recently added a Gobi Hi-lift mount. Much better than it floating around inside the cab, very secure and clears my rtt/yakima bars no problem. Still have access to the gobi basket area or what I call the 'basement' where I can store thin items when the rtt is on.

Thanks! I'm just down south of you in Savannah

Damn, we'll have to get a beer sometime so I can figure out how to bribe you to help install an ARB bar.... :rofl:
 
Savannah? I thought you were going to end up in the ATL area.

what table is that on the rear hatch?

Going to take quite a few beers to convince me to do that install again! Maybe it will be less stressful the second time around haha. Keep me posted though, ill try and lend a hand

Atlanta was the original plan up until around the start of our trip. I lived in Savannah before San Diego and I missed living down there so we made plans to end up there after a short stay in Atlanta to regoup/get situated. We ended up staying in Atlanta from October to December at my parents house which was great but just those two months really made it clear Atlanta is not for me anymore as I was ready to get back down to the low country, too much traffic up there and the housing prices are ridiculous. I have a lot of friends/family in Atl so I'll be up there once a month or so, also got to attend a GXOR & GA 4Runners meetup with @Vlad which was awesome.

The table is from an Australian company called Kaon. Been a solid setup and I'm planning to add their new cage to replace the oem rear door netting pretty soon.

Cheers,

I can make many many beers a reality my friend. :beer:
 
Added a few things, went a few places-


Swapped the KO2's out with General Grabber ATX's, really liking this tire so far. Quiet and well mannered while still being great in the dirt.

love this build! Have a couple questions if you don’t mind?

how are these tires holding up? I’m about to order a set and curious. Hopefully you still like them!

Speaking of these tires, you stated that you fully deflate the spare to get it up underneath....how did/do you deal with TPMS?

and lastly, the rear door table...did you order it from manufacturer in Australia? Or is there a stateside vendor?

thanks!!
