Official 5th Gen T4R Off-Road pics

[E-ROCKER]

Went out to Johnson Valley two weekends ago, went from Cougar Buttes to Means dry lake bed. Was solo so excuse the poser shots.

Went to Big Bear over Memorial weekend, did Gold Mtn and did less than half of John Bull but some broken down Jeeps caused a traffic jam with over 20 rigs backed up. We turned around and ended it early, managed to not take 1 pic of it. Will have to go back on a less busy weekend.

Rig looks good, how do you like the Walker's and which ones did you go with (comp adjusters) ?

Thanks NorthWest 4R, the front TE bezel got torn off on a rock first off road trip and it's now missing the rear bumper since last weekend. Walkers are the 2.5 non-resi's front and rear. I believe they only offer the comp adjustment on the 2.0's. I love the WE's, they ride great. Maybe a little soft on the road but I am used to it and as soon as you get in the rocks and dirt you can really feel them perform well.
I had them on my 2008 FJ cruiser for about 4 1/2 years, had them fully rebuilt by Walker Evans in Riverside before putting on the new 4Runner. Was a little worried they wouldn't feel right with the different vehicle. But after a few off road trips and feeling them out I couldn't be happier.

Sure did. Few other 4r's went down first so kind of saw there line. Once the back driver side went up,I put it in reverse to straighten out a bit more. Once I got it a bit more straight, just had to go down slow and easy. The guy behind me saw what I did, so he got his front end to point down hill before going down at the angle I did. My wife and son where holding on to the oh $h!t handles pretty tight when the back end went up.

Wow mad props for doing that part of that trail. I was the only vehicle out there so I had no line to follow or someone to haul me to the road if it got hairy.

Sick! I'll be home in a few weeks. I was wondering about The trail status up there. Looks good.

Here is some shots of playing around in the river. I just crossed this spot going the other way with no problem, but on the way back ooops. Then the fj got stuck pulling me out.

I would be doing a rear diff fluid change after it sitting there like that, unless you have the diff breather extended

 

[tchlong03]

I did change the rear diff fluid, and to my shock there was no water in it at all.
