    Mighty Max (pickup) Expedition/Utility/Rally Support Trailer Build.

    I know its cool to fab but its only 12 bucks at your local home depot. BTW, great build for a utility trailer.

    How Important Is Ramp Travel Index (RTI)?

    Lockers are the way to go for sure. Keeping the tires on the trail helps too. But on a side note, a winch is also needed. It's not fun digging for hours to get a locked vehicle unstuck. Just my .02.

    2000 Frontier (Supercharged) Build and Adventures - Babe the Blue Ox

    Nicely done. It looks pretty stout as well. Item noted, is you have a shelf to hold mud so keep an eye on that.

    2000 Frontier (Supercharged) Build and Adventures - Babe the Blue Ox

    Do you loose a lot of wrenches? Leaving them on the shackles is a good way to do that. lol The shock didn't really look broke, but more like it unthreaded itself. Don't understand how but schtuff happens. How do you like the Bilstein ride?

    Let's talk lifts (2013 Tacoma)

    I know I comparing apples to oranges. I had an 89 Xcab Toy 4x4 that was stock with 32s and I took that truck everywhere. IMO, I would save the money and spend it on overland gear and recovery gear. Hi-lift jack and/or winch will save your butt many times over. I'm not to sure which trucks...

    4x4 fire truck conversion project

    That's awesome. Approach and departure angles aren't the greatest but that is an awesome starting platform for sure.
