Yes and no. I go for about the same amount of sidewall flex and increase in footprint (which is totally unscientific)... which generally will mean less of a decrease in air pressure on a C vs. an E. In other words, on the exact same vehicle (loaded the same way) you'll probably keep a higher...

My Dad's side of the family has had land, and later a cabin, way out past Warren on the South Fork of the Salmon since my Grandpa came back from WWII. It's my favorite place in the world to spend time, and I've traveled a lot. I've been going to the cabin (and I do mean cabin, no...

I bought the complete tool kit, including that tool. Luckily no, it didn't ever overheat (I did do a combustion gas test on the cooling system before I began any of this to check for head gasket issues and it came back clean). -TJ

Right on, should work killer. -TJ

What all are you changing about your current susp? -TJ

Nice! -TJ

If you're curious what your plugs are saying about how your engine is running, I wrote something up on it previously: Spark Plug Reading... - Dune and Dirt If you can provide a few close-ups I'd be happy to give my $0.02 too. -TJ

Wow, that's a super-pretty rig to start with! Off-topic, but any advice for me before I dive into the timing set and hydraulic lash adjusters in my 4.7 HO (long-story, but I was going to just replace a radiator and then... and then... and then...)? The thread is here if you have any thoughts...

I've always, always loved those 3rd Gen 'Runners (especially the ones like yours before the hood scoop). Seems like a great adventure rig that you've built just the way you want! -TJ

You ever get out in the Payette National Forest area? -TJ

Icon... nice! I know it always looks less extreme in pics, but couldn't you have just slowly crept forward when you were on that little mound? It looks like the back tire was about to start coming back down the mound... -TJ

Thanks for the info, I'll just see if they end up replying here or not. I've seen lots of reviews of the tent itself, and I definitely like it. I just want the "mini" version if I ever go RTT. It's the total setup w/ the awning, anex room, etc. etc. etc. that just looks miserable to setup...

ATI Super Damper for my 4.7 HO in my WJ. I'm doing a bunch of other work, and just couldn't help myself when the damper was coming off anyway. -TJ

Congrats! The IKamper Skycamp Mini is my "dream" RTT if I ever decide to go that way. -TJ

Honest question: how long does that entire setup take to put up and break down? -TJ

Well, just ordered an ATI Super Damper for it too... being at work on the internet is dangerous to my wallet. I also got the master tool set for timing set job. If any other WJ 4.7'ers need to borrow it when I'm done just let me know. -TJ

We always think it's going to be a rock that slices a tire... yet it's ALWAYS wood that gets 'em. -TJ

I know you said "basically" so I agree. FWIW I run a F-rated tire on my 3/4 ton '11 Silverado 2500 HD. Of course, I also pull a 16k lbs 5th wheel with ~3k lbs of pin-weight with it (let's please not get into a GVWR debate). I went C-rated on my WJ because I never intend to tow much of...

Yeah, I always like to assume wheelers/Overlanders are "different" and don't do stuff like that... but unfortunately there are bad apples in any group. -TJ

We are 138... -TJ
