    Limit straps a good investment?

    The 18's are good. i have a friend who was running the same length with LC springs for awhile you can always mount them a little different to change the place where they are finally tight.

    I'm out of camber adjustment and still have visible + camber...

    the rear cams adjust the camber quite a bit more than the front. It it was me. I would put all the cams in the center. I use a jack to take the weight off the front end so there is less to settle after. So put all of the cams in the center and look at the tires. I you have positive camber...

    Can My Rig Handle Gold Mtn/Holcomb Valley, CA?

    yes. gold mountain is super easy as far as rock crawling goes. A stock struck can easily run it. Holcomb valley road (3n16) Is a basic dirt road. I was up there a couple weeks ago and saw a normal sedan on it. John bull is a little different. If you had sliders I would say go for it.

    Masson74 - My Rig

    I caught browns in the deep (south west) side. I caught more in the upper pond. Im not sure if there the upper lake still exists since the winter flooding, but i assume it is. There were a couple weeks last year that were awesome. Me and a buddy caught about 30 or so in 2 hours or less...

    Masson74 - My Rig

    I see you found the local fishing hole. :). I have been going back there for the past year or so. Cant beat it (except the sun in the afternoon). The fishing can be excellent. The water was too high a month or so ago, and I have been waiting for it to go down some. THere are some beautiful...

    I dream of a Taco Box....

    I believe the multimode transfer case (the one with the "center diff") is actually 4 or 5 inches longer than a regular 4runner/taco transfer case and that is where the issue lies. I hear it won't fit with the stock rear x-member. That would be no problem to cut out, but it holds the gas...

    Trimming an ARB for better clearance w/pics

    Its been holding it up great. Went through another more recent round of trimming and chopping……. Surprisingly it holds up okay. All I can say is the plate on the bumper bends in when you decide to get in bumper car contests out wheeling. The chopped edges hold up just fine. Have not had any...

    Should pinion be sticking out this far??

    Here is your answer: http://toyotafaq.wikispaces.com/differentials You need the v6 gears. I have the TG v6 5.29s and their v6 bearing kit. I installed it and everything was fine. I know they years on the website don't necessarily include our 4runners but a v6 toyota diff is a v6 toyota diff…...

    Basinrunner's basic build.

    Well I have always liked the new napa cv joints. The splines seem to be cut nicer than the rest. I have some re-man cv's from napa/autozone etc. and they are okay too but the splines on the inner cv are really rough. I have been breaking the actual shaft on the napa cv's . Its happened 2 or...

    Gear opinions 4.88 or 5.29, and i have searched

    Truck ended up with 5.29's and then a crawl box with 4.7's….. The 5.29s are great around town and the little driving I do. It would not be a good choice for a DD
