Airlift Bags offroading Well, knock on wood, I haven't had any problems with my Airlift bags and I offroad and "rally drive" aggressively on backcountry roads here in So AZ. Granted I do have the compressor mounted onboard with the automatic 5psi minimum switch. It's a slick setup and even...

tow hook and hitch recovery Tow straps with the hooks are bad because the hooks can slip off and/or break due to the loading angles. They are also meant for towing, not recovery - the forces are much greater when trying to pull a stuck vehicle. Regarding using shackles and recovery straps on...

Safety Chain Mounts Suitable for Shackle Recovery? Just curious as I was looking at my receiver hitch today - I noticed that next to the receiver there is a thick plate welded to the bumper frame member that has the two large ovals cut out for safety chain use when towing. Do you think I could...

Not an electric fan As Koz stated, the fan doesn't "turn on" or off... it's always "ON". It's directly connected to the serpentine belt (accessory belt) on the front of the engine. It's on a mechanical coupling (no switch) to the engine. The radiator and water pump must have great capacity...

Re: Re: Coolant Temp through OBDII Exactly - it climbs exactly in time with the temp rise according to the computer. It really never moves more than a couple degrees. I live in Tucson, AZ where it is often over 100degrees and I run with A/C all summer up the mountains, etc and it never moves...

Coolant Temp through OBDII I am running and OBDII (on board diagnostic) scanner to my old Palm m130 PDA mounted next to the left A/C vent. It monitors and displays what the engine computer is seeing from the various sensors and displays them. There are numerous threads about this setup...

Diagram is on the hood There seemed to be some confusion about where the belt runs. On my 04 V8 there is a nice diagram of how to run the serpentine belt under the hood. Take a look - nice job Toyota!

Availability? Wow - jealousy... So teo - it looks like a bomber skid and now that you've got me drooling ... what can you tell us about availability of a 4th gen ready part? Are you still in beta testing or do you think this will be something Stubbs can sell finalized soon?

Transfer Case Skid link Hmm.. the link didn't work to that thread on the transfer case skid.. here it is again with "long-hand" included: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19845&highlight=stubbs+and+transfer+and+skid LINK

transfer case skid Just curious about your 60+" length skid. Are you designing it to go all the way back to protect the transfer case? Maybe you don't need that much length if the Stubbs fabricated transfer case skid is good enough for that job. See the 4th gen thread here: 4th gen transfer...
