    Extended Steering shaft w/o cutting or welding

    So I thought I'd share this tech which I recently came across while doing the SAS on my 88 4runner. While moving my front axle and steering box forward I ran into the inevitable problem of the steering shaft being too short. When I slid the solid portion of the shaft out to get additional...

    cabover camper

    We're thinking about getting a cabover camper in the next year or two. We have a shortbed 04 HD2500 4x4 with a duramax. The rig has GWV's comparable to a one-ton, and the RV dealer said it'll hold the cabover weights fine. We're thinking about an Arctic fox 811 w/slide, but has anyone used...

    Electric compressor for on-board air?

    Dirty 30's Birfield kit

    So I see Trail-gear just came out with their version of the 30 spine birfield upgrade. Specs sound pretty good, but they don't have additional heat-treatment like Bobby does to his longfields. I still have loyalty to Bobby's products, as I've beat mine until every thing else brakes and never...

    Removable Doors for Toyota

    So I got tired of unbolting and bolting my doors on my 1st gen every time the weather changed. In the snow the heat is GREAT, but in the summer my rig will cook you out! Since I'm planning on adding tube doors, with the option of full doors I made some quick latches. This option costs a...

    Toyota leaf spring feeler.

    I just picked up an 88 4runner w/3.0 for a steal of a deal and going to start building it for the trails. I've been wheeling a 1st gen. shortbed pickup with 5" All-pro's up front and 1/2 ton 63 inch chevy's in the rear with excellent flex and very little rubbing issues with 37 boggers. The...
