    Demello Sliders for 5th Gen TA 4Runner with KDSS

    We ordered these from Demello in bare steel and had a local shop powder coat them semigloss black, then Line-x'ed the outer bars (~$450 for the powder coating and line-x alone). We installed the drivers side and decided they were overkill for my wife's rig. You're to gain in this deal- they're...

    Which bike?

    I have experience with Jeeps, Tacomas, Sportsmobiles, etc but I have an itch for an adventure bike. I have researched the BMW r1200 GSA and all sounds perfect but I'm wanting to glean some 411 from the locals. I'm 6'4", 215#, road 60%, gravel and White rim-ish stuff 40% of the time, money less...

    Our new SMB...

    We finally made it home with the Magicbus- over 7 months worth of planning, saving, mind changing, and headaches! We took possession in Vegas and drove it to Jefferson City, MO seeing some sights along the way. Everything turned out absolutely perfect! Jeff at SMB West, Josh the transporter...

    OME rear spring extra leaf shock?

    I added an extra OME spring to my leaf pack in anticipation of a topper/rack, rear tire carrier bumper, etc, and the guys at the shop told me that the OME rear shocks that are matched to the Dakar pack are too short and limit down travel- limiting the articulation pretty significantly. That will...

    Webasto Hollandia 400 vinyl top?

    I'm thinking about adding a sunroof to my Tacoma and ran across an electric vinyl roof panel that slides open made by the webasto company (top player in sunroofs). I've heard mixed thngs on these- leaks, noise, etc, but also that it's a great top. The idea is very appealing but it's a big step...

    Snugtop Pro?

    Thinking about changing my '06 into an expedition rig and am interested in the Snugpro tops (Xtravision) with full fibergalss doors and storage shelves in there. I'll never camp in the bed (we have a Sportsmobile) and while we have a yellow lab he doesn't ride back there tons so we don't really...

    Frontrunner racks...

    I have been thinking about the Frontrunner racks for my tacoma and have a quick question. I want to install it on a Snugpro top with yakima rails- very low profile using the yak track themselves. I think this will work but am unable to find reassurance of this in my searches. Is there anyone...
