    Colorado Built FZJ80

    Well done. Looks like a fantastic trail. And love the J80 you are working on. I really like those and the choices you are making on your build. Were really excited about our trip to Fairplay in December, I am conflicted as we want snow so we can ski but on the other hand I dont want snow so we...

    The In-No-Hurry™ Big Whup build/mod thread

    And the "build" continues over the weekend. When the Duratracs were put on the spacers contributed to rubbing up front, so we trimmed the front bumper skin and mover the fender lining forward, like a lot have done before. Issue was the mudflaps were rubbing and they made a horrific noise so we...

    The In-No-Hurry™ Big Whup build/mod thread

    LOL, yes, they do make a noise when they come to life. I'm glad I wasn't imagining that. I only use them in very dark and remote parts of our drives. I am very excited to know these will be excellent in the mountain passes we will be seeing in the near future. And, I think I saw these pics on...

    Hey Steve, First off, the new bezel covers the factory lettering on mine, and I'm not sure why yours aren't marked, they may be a different series? The brackets that are used to mount the entire assembly pointed the lights, not the bezel. The surround, like the rest of the bumper cover, is...

    The LED Amber Bajas are pretty incredible. These are the Squadron Pro wide cornering version. (Another cool thing about these is you can swap out the lense and they become the longer reaching Driving Combo lights). If you are considering the Sport vs. Pro, I recommend the Pros. They are...

    Met Chris from Evanston today at ChiTown4x4. So now the 265 Duratracs, 1.25" BORA Spacers, Baja Pro Wide Cornering fogs, LED interior and low beam HID upgrades and ARB Diff Breather are all complete. Put a few patches and stickers on as well. This is the setup for our trip to CO. I am stoked...

    So, why'd you buy the overland vehicle you did?

    We were destroying the vehicle we had prior to buying a 2017 Toyota 4Runner off Road while driving to our family cabin and other off pavement campgrounds, but the worst damage came from Chicago streets and the pothole problem. Over the course of 3 years we damaged, bent and broke 8wheels and...

    Colorado Front Range MeetUp - 11/12/2017

    This is a great idea. I too am an offroad noob, and I live in Illinois. But I am heading out for the holidays and will be just outside Fairplay, CO mid December. Not sure if thats in the range of any of you but I am sure I will be checking out the brewery while were there. Would be great to talk...

    Recovery classes in the Midwest region?

    Hi all, Im looking to see if there are any instructors or classes scheduled this year for recovery skills training in or around the Chicago area. Outside of the big shows I haven't found any information on this subject and want to get some hands on training before our winter trip. I reached out...

    Here they are in the powder coat. I chose matte black for the sliders and Argenta Gray for the foot plates. This grey matches the grey toyota logo on the front grill. Im going to replace the stainless fasteners with black oxide stainless torx bolts before I put these on the truck.

    Just picked up from my local Fed Ex freight terminal and dropped off at the powdercoaters. I must say the folks at C4Fab team really packs their parts with care. The terminal forklift man was very impressed. I chose the TRD cutout and I like it a lot. More to come...

    Fairplay Colorado Trails in December

    Hi all, We are travelling to Fairplay Colorado over the holiday break this year and will be there for a week. I was looking over the area trails and was kinda thinking we could find some easy trails to try if the snow isn't too deep and I don't want to get in over my head. Truck will be stock...
