    BlairB's 2008 4Runner: My Long-Travel, Do-Everything Rig

    Thanks Boort! My wiring isn't anything special (photos below). Generally it was just cleaning up about ten years of "I will just quickly wire this HAM/fridge/rock lights/etc... for this trip and clean it up later." My Dirty Parts dual battery setup has been flawless over the past ten+ years...

    BlairB's 2008 4Runner: My Long-Travel, Do-Everything Rig

    Realized I am way overdue for updating this thread. Updated the first post with current details on the rig. Since I created this I have changed to Lightforce 240's with 75W HID's for distance, built a new drawer system as a COVID project, switched to a Victory 4x4 roof rack (not pictured yet)...

    SOLD SOLD: Edgestar 43 in NorCal- $325

    Have an Edgestar 43 in nearly perfect condition that I am looking to sell. Comes with all the baskets/power cords/owners manual. The fridge also comes with tie down points installed. The only issue with the fridge is on one side the spring for the spring loaded handle went missing when I...

    US West FS: Rear Drawer Set out of 4Runner in NorCal- $275

    Wanted to post up my current set of drawer and fridge slide/enclosure. I had these made a few years back by a local cabinet maker. They are made primarily out of 3/4" ply and are very very sturdy. The drawer slides are 500 lbs lock-in, lock-out and allow the drawer/fridge slide to pull out 25"...

    BlairB's 2008 4Runner: My Long-Travel, Do-Everything Rig

    @collinrach22 Thanks! That was a CBI fold down tire carrier. I just tried finding it on their site, but couldn't. Not sure if they still make it or you need to look out for one used. Overall it worked great for the time I was running it. Can be difficult to access the back since you need to...

    BlairB's 2008 4Runner: My Long-Travel, Do-Everything Rig

    These failures were what convinced me to go long travel. I wanted to make everything stronger (gussets, new LCA's, UCA's, etc...) and pretty quickly the LT started making sense. I was shocked when it happened too. I still think there was some issue with the bolts. Both times I was actually...

    BlairB's 2008 4Runner: My Long-Travel, Do-Everything Rig

    I don't think you need to worry about it too much. I think the issue was related to my Fox coilovers and Camburg 1" UCA's. Apparently when All Pro initially developed the shocks with Fox they ended up putting a little too much travel (or so I hear) and as a result the suspension travel was...

    BlairB's 2008 4Runner: My Long-Travel, Do-Everything Rig

    By the way, if anyone ever wants a good excuse to upgrade their suspension. "So this doesn't happen for a third time" sure seemed to work with my wife. Two broken UCA bolts. One on the White Rim Trail in Utah, one deep in BLM near Death Valley around 10pm. Also a good time to note, if it breaks...
