who wants to go wheeling?

[AZBub]

Im moving them around. those two big ones are going to move out wider and im going to put something else in the middle.

Put two in your rear bumper. maybe fab up some ditch light brackets and get some light up and out to the sides more? Would help at night when you are crossing deep ruts or so you can finally miss that washout spot at box canyon you always seem to hit haha!

Yeah the two wider beam will go on the angles on the outside of the bumper facing out, and the spots ill have to find somewhere to put.

This afternoon and / or tomorrow?

Thinking about doing some play at Sycamore Creek this afternoon, after a hike at Usery Mountain Park. No specific time yet, just throwing it out there. Any thoughts for tomorrow? I just need to be done by late afternoon.

I wouldn't mind doing something Sunday nearby

Sunday

Hey Chris, DFarms texted and he sounded down for tomorrow. Would Sycamore be close enough for you and Vanessa? Should be really nice out tomorrow! :bravo:

So would any of you be interested in a harder trail run?
Like Minimum requirements being sliders, 33's, and ideally skids and a locker?

I've run Elvis twice now and I'm pretty confident in leading a run there. Basically we run Elvis and it drops us into Box Canyon.

Here are some pics:

I guess my pictures don't look like very much fun to some people :shrug:

Looks like great fun...

I meet the requirements but unfortunately I will be having knee replacement surgery and will be down for about 5 weeks. But while I'm down my clutch is getting replaced and my dual cases are going in. :crutch::crutch:

Jealous! I'm thinking it's time to go duals this summer.

What he said

 

[NZDZRT]

What are dual cases?

Jealous! I'm thinking it's time to go duals this summer.

I haven't heard that term before.

 

[4Running Daily]

I haven't heard that term before.

In simple terms, instead of having 1 transfer case, we have 2. So instead of just having high and low, we'll have high high, low low, high low, and low high. It allows us to crawl incredibly slow up terrain.

Now Toyota actually makes/made a 2nd TC right? I swear I have seen it bolted to the output of the transmission.

Maybe I'm thinking of a gear splitter. People who tow heavy travel trailers install them from time to time.

No, Inchworm makes them and Marlin Crawler sells them. And then Trail Gear recently came out with a competitor.

 

[Rockdawg84]

exactly, classic guys have been doing dual cases since the late 80's. Basically you take a gear driven reduction box from a early toy and then as Connor said you use an adapter plate to mount it in front of your transfer case. you end up with an extra lever to shift the front case from high to low. You end up with a final drive ratio of 112:1 in low low. So worth it.

 

[Rockdawg84]

just for a visual here are a couple of pics my crawl box assembled and ready to go in. Orange adapter plate will go to the back of the transmission then the stock transfer case will bolt up behind that.

So jealous! 4.7's or 2.28?
