So after a fun time with a hydro-locked engine last year, I immediately added a snorkel, specifically Dobinsons. I've strayed from any kind of water crossing due to sheer fear of it happening again, but I do wonder if anyone knows what the safest maximum height of a water crossing would be...

I am considering buying an old vintage cassette deck with the aesthetic features I like, then possible taking knobs, faceplates, or other stuff I want to re-use. Major question I have is if I could simply dowsize the screen in the 4R. If I could perhaps make it roughly the size of a cassette...

I appreciate the response! May be possible to find something that has the features I want, then see how far I can take it apart to place buttons, etc elsewhere. Food for my brain, everything here’s just a plan in CAD at the moment but I like your input. Thank you!

Ok, to start: I am not an expert on electrical design, audio wiring, or really anything. I'm intermediate at these things, have done similar projects, just not to the degree I'm about to describe. I love Guardians of the Galaxy, and I'm also an architecture student, so I like making shit. If...

only issue is it only mounts to their racks

Whats up guys So we've seen that side load access panel that Joe's OG Equipment makes, its pretty rad, except for the price, and the fact that its out of stock quite frequently. Thought I'd see if anyone has made their own version of a side load access panel, or something that allows storage on...

So what I had done before was I took the cables running from the solar panel, wired them to a 14AWG wire extension and then connected that to the DC cord, which is also 14AWG. That didnt work. But today I hooked the cables from the solar panel directly to the DC connector and it worked. Can't...

Interesting, definitely will try that out tomorrow. Thanks!

Hey y'all I'm not too savvy with electronics, much less solar panels and batteries. Here's my scenario. I have this 200W power bank from FlashFish, second link at the bottom, very nice little product. I want to be able to charge it off of a solar panel mounted to my rack. The company only...

C4 Lo-Pro Install Installed my C4 Lo-Pro, I love the look of it! I can't wait to actually be able to use the winch on it and get it all nice and dirty. Highly recommend this as an option if you want to keep front look of the 4Runner.

Tent Test Just opened up my SmittyBilt Overlander tent to fit some LEDs inside and clean up some dust from drilling it in. Love this tent.

Those were my first choice, 5100s with the coils or just the shocks?

I'd like to do a 3" lift, put some bad boy 33" tires on, you know, the usual stuff. But I don't want to a full suspension kit. So I'll just pose this question, what would yall recommend for a 3" lift for a reasonable price, but also not the worst quality? I've looked at Rough Country but they...

Mine's named "Tonto", the black and white reminded me of Tonto the indian from that Lone Ranger reboot.

I would not vinyl wrap them, it can chip and just get all... gross. I've just never had a thing for wrapping parts of a car, stick to paint for the valances. You'll have to sand them down just a little for the paint to grab on. The paint is actually BMW paint they use on their premium cars or...
