    When was the last time a 4runner died?

    Sadly it was probably this one... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knOSXaRGWMg

    Questions for the engineers, fabricators and emergency responders

    White_n_slow hit the nail on the head! Came here to post exactly that. I built a lot of rally cars in my day and roll cages are great, but they require the additional safety gear to work correctly. Not only that but simple cages without door bars and pillar gussets are not nearly as effective as...

    I've been on the move the past week away from the truck so listed with what I had. But I'll get some more added as soon as I'm home!

    FS: 1996 Limited in MT - $6000

    I'm in need of a pickup for work/forestry stuff so my trusty 4runner is now for sale. Here's the craigslist ad for info: 1996 Toyota 4Runner Limited It's in great shape. Had some recent work done including CVs and brake lines, oil change, new plugs, etc. Also tires are basically new, less than...

    Up coming trip to Colorado.......

    Ah man those Leadville pictures make me miss it big time! Leadville is goofy but for some reason I'm pretty sure it's where I'll end up again.

    BANK sliders with body lift?

    I can't speak to those sliders specifically. But in general with any weld on slider and a body lift some minor modification can be done to mount the sliders a bit tighter to the body.

    Headed to Colorado from December 19-28

    Snowmass is great. If you're in that area I prefer Aspen Highlands (not regular Aspen) but it depends on what kind of skiing you want to do.

    Altitude

    Coming from living at above 10,000 feet it'll be fine. Sure you're a bit down on power but it's not a huge deal. AZ is great!

    Expedition & Camping bags

    My main gear is stored in NRS Canyon boxes, after that it's a combination of black hole duffles, some dry bags, and potentially a large (60+L) pack or two.

    Homemade rear 3rd Gen Bumper

    Some advice for sales (coming from someone with a LOT of parts sales experience). The easiest way for you to do this is using PayPal, send prospective buyers a direct invoice with PayPal with line item descriptions for each item plus paint and shipping etc. Include est shipping times and any...

    Do I dare ask what this was? More rust!

    That's genuinely terrifying. I wouldn't drive around with that mount that way at all, if it fails you're in for a wild ride. You could probably weld a new on on there as opposed to replacing the axle though.

    Differential vacuum tube. only two left in the country

    According to the parts guy? All I'm saying is it's a pretty common practice to stock very low numbers of items that do not sell regularly on a national level across many brands. There's certainly potential that they aren't producing more, but I wouldn't place my bets on a parts guys opinion or...

    Differential vacuum tube. only two left in the country

    Just because there's only 2 now doesn't mean you wont be able to get it long term. Stock is based on demand. I'd be willing to bet that's not something that they sell regularly. We would see sub 5 of various parts left in the country all the time at Subaru. Metal vacuum lines are a great...

    Fire

    Absolutely do not open the hood. Spray from below up into the engine bay as well as through the grille. I've experienced first hand how quickly an engine fire grows, opening the hood allows the fire to draw more air in from below as more heat escapes from above. There's a reason we carry dry...

    So. ..my wheel split

    I've had one stock wheel with a similar failure. Complete split all the way around the barrel. However it was not a toyota rim. Was a volvo Volan titanium rim that was on a car we drove the heck out of.
