Canon 40D, SD880 & SD630

It was very fun...but no more going in between bushes & mud crossing...only rock climbing.

Hope all the scratches come out. And I'm averaging 7mpg, because of all the mud. I think the poor gas mileage is from the truck working harder. I ran the hose to the radiator fan for 30mins & I think I got 90% out. It's going to be a very high water bill this month.

EEEK Scratches! I hope I dont scratch mine up when I go wheeling... my dad would flip a brick...

Looks like a ton of fun though :D
 
i didn't air down one bit. I didn't even think about it actually. 32 PSI

Nice pics. Could have sworn that I saw you taking more though!

I know this is a terrible picture, but it does show you how dirty my air filter is!

Bought a new one for $26 :(

Also got my oil changed.

Why does the one 4runner have a black mirror and a painted silver mirror?
That's my SR5.

Driver mirror got whacked off & I replaced it w/ a Sport/Limited one.

Later on...found out that it had heated mirrors!!
 
KC sweeeeeet pics - I'm glad someone got the one of the muddy water coming up over my hood LOL!

Makes me sad I left after lunch; looks like some sweet back of the park hill climb that I missed out on - oh well next time.

I aired down from 45 to 22 it was mostly dry hard pack trails and it was nice to have the extra cushion, but as Jamie said it wasn't really needed.

Thanks again guys it was a great time we'll have to do it again soon.
 
Pritchkanoff i love your truck hopefully mine will look similar in height after i install my toytec 3 inch spacer kit and get some 33's. looks awesome!! and how long have u had the MT's, and how long u think they'll last??
 
4Runner8 thanks for the props, since then I've installed rails and sorted out my rack issues. I just ordered a front bumper as well so hopefully in the coming months I'll have some new pics of that.

Still LOVING the MTs super sticky in all situations. I got them the last week in January this year. I just got a 5th for the full size spare in June. Upon comparison it looks like a fair amount of tread had worn for 6mo period - I would say abou 1/16" loss. Since these tires have only been on the market for about a year I don't think there is too much rating on how long they'll last. If I get 35K I'll be happy and I don't think that's a stretch by any means.

Here is an updated picture from a recent trip to colorado I took to do some wheelin - good shot of the tires. Good luck and remember to post pics when you get it installed they are an insane suspension system - all the parts are custom built for Toytec!
