4runners are amazing, I almost bought one and test drove a bunch of newer ones but had to pass due to driving 200 miles a day for work, though I might buy one as a second car so I can quit beating on my wife's MDX when I want to go off road.

old land cruisers are nice too if you can afford one, early 90s will probably be the cheapest since old ones don't lose value they just become collectible

You either pay for the trails starting out or you drive 2 hours (and pay for the gas) to another trail. If you drive 2 hours, you meet people who then tell you about closer trails. Join a group, too.

If it ices over go to an empty parking lot and practice losing control. Most people fuck up in snow/ice because they panic brake. You need to do slow inputs and be able to use the throttle to correct rather than brakes.

Dry as hell and nothing to play around with. The waters are stagnating green and the mudpit right before (or after) the dirt bike playground is all ridiculously dry. No longer need to strafe the ruts or anything. I drove the volkswagen Golf >>17793438 through it when I towed it with my truck and the FWD shitbox drove though with no issues.

Just take it one hr north to Lindsay and hit the farm trails instead.

>>17801379
If you're doing winch comps, absolutely. For a general trail vehicle? In my opinion no. Just drive to the conditions. If you've gone down to 6-7psi for a recovery, air back up to 10-12 and don't start doing donuts.
For a dedicated trail pig some might see the value in them (I'd sooner spend my limited funds on other things) but they're a heavy rotational mass that saps fuel range and is harder to balance.

You certainly can, I usually use what ever can of penetrating lube I have in my SHTF tool kit (normally either CRC or WD40). I've only done it twice before but it just as spectacular and effective as the YouTube videos look. I also tension a ratchet strap over the circumference of the tread to help force the bead home with a portable air compressor hooked up and switched on.
>>
>>17801712
How much do you normally spray on for WD40? Never actually considered using that before.

Also how do you tension the strap over the tread? We normally try and place a rock or branch against the tyre and wedge it in place.
>>
>>17801768
I wrap the strap all the way around the centre of the tread, just helps push the sidewalls out. On first attempt I sprayed about five seconds worth into the tyre and flamethrower'd to ignite but it wasn't quite enough. Sprayed ten seconds worth on second attempt to make sure and it popped home easily.
Dunno how much difference it really makes but I've got one of those generic twin cylinder 150L/min air compressors connected and running to help the bead home. They're usually a little under $100 shipped on eBay.

My tip; TurtleWax Start Gas

I was doing this just a few hours ago, or atleast trying to. We were mounting some 35's, one of them being brand new and an ass to seat, and we figured we'd try using some gas. I had the CRC starter fluid in my truck, but apparently that shit doesn't go "woof" like the Turtle Wax one. According to my bud he was once at a show where Arctic Trucks were going to demonstrate it, but as they were only given the CRC brand they simply couldn't, as the CRC burns rather than explode

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jn8Q6DyKmig&feature=youtu.be
>>
>>17801861
Oh that sounds like it'd really help if you're on mud or something that isn't a hard surface. I've never had an airpump working while rerimming but I think it'd help if you have one of the larger ones.

I have a small bike pump that works off the 12V cigarette lighter I bought on amazon for sale for literally $15. It works to get it up to 20PSI if I ever need to air down. Then drive slowly on the shoulder to the nearest gas station. It will air up to 30 but will just take way too long.

>>17801975
Good to know with the turtlewax, too. Seems too expensive to justify buying when I work with ether. Not everyone can get ether around here and ether boils at 40 centigrade so youc an't use it above 25 when you're outside. Ether is best in the winter, though. How do you use that machine?
>>
>>17801975
Yep, I imagine that starter gas would work a lot better than the penetrating lube I used. Problem with your typical WD40 is it's designed to stick to the surface you're spraying and turn into a liquid where as the easy start can is designed to remain a volatile gas. In my occasion though it was simply a case of "having to piss with the dick you're given".
>>
>>17802009
I never go offroading without a decent compressor, it at least know a few of the other vehicles in convoy have one I can use. It's always been part of my standard kit.
Also saves a shit load of time as previously mentioned eBay compressors take a set of 31" tyres from 15psi to 35psi in close to ten minutes.
>>
>>17792542
That's a nice spot man. Can I come with next time? All I have is a long bed Tundra though.

Been there, done that. Its like using WD40 as starter fluid for a diesel engine, hearing the knocking and the rattle until it gets some actual diesel...

I can recommend the Ryobi air compressor. Light as a feather, can both deflate and inflate, automatically pumps up to the pressure you set, and its really cheap if you already own a battery

The ryobi is an interesting idea. Although I still think you're better off with a 12V gator clipped compressor.
This is similar to the one I use. The filter housings on them are plastic, but sit nice and snug to the crank case so I haven't broken one yet...

Can't imagine it being any heavier than the cordless Ryobi, and it's got a 3/4hp motor and draws about 45amps under load, so it's got plenty of performance for a cheapy. Touch wood I've had it for 6 years without any trouble, and that includes using it in near 40°C days, but I also give it a minute or two to cool between tyres when it's hot out.

Hey, so what does ORG think of the older V8 Ford Explorers?

I've got a chance of getting one free from a Aunt who is tired of paying to fix issues in it to pass inspection, it's a 1997 v8, with around 120K mi on it, I'm normally a Toyota guy and I daily a 1996 Tacoma so this would be a purely offroad/towing/roadtrip rig but I'm curious as to how it should be reliability wise, with something like the Taco I really haven't had to do anything outside of normal maintenance and a preemptive water pump replacement and I'm up to 160k mi, from what I can gleam from forums the Explorer should require significantly more.
>>
Didn't want to start a new thread since this seems like it might have some answers. Almost lost my truck to Harvey last saturday and im looking for something that would move the intake from behind the head light to some where higher that would keep the water out better. Snorkel kits are ridiculous don't need the intake higher than my head would be just need to be able to push through some 2 to 3 feet of water. Oh and I already have a lift planned. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

What truck is it?
And if you're talking about 2-3' of water, just get a snorkel if a kit exists. If you have the option, get a cyclone precleaner head instead of the generic ram air scoop.
>>
>>17802957
its a 2012 ram 1500. If i have to get a snorkel i will. The only reason i don't want a snorkel is purely aesthetic reasons. What i would really want is something like the vararam setup but instead of pulling air from the front it pulls it from the back of the hood. I'll check out the cyclone. Thanks for the input.

It's funny how the "style" never took off in North America where as in Aus it's almost standard. Guess a lot of places here it's a necessity up north in the wet season.

On note of the precleaner, I don't yet have one fitted but the standard ram air scoop is alright. I just turn it backwards if going offroad, and I've had water up over the hood on a few occasions.

Back on aesthetics. I've heard of winch competition trucks that route their intake back into the cab, but you'd have to butcher your firewall and it'd be loud on a road vehicle.
The other transaction that's taken off in Aus is custom stainless steel snorkels, but it's not cheap especially when taking a custom air box into account, and personally I think it's ricey as fuck.
>>
>>17803031
>>17803059
I'm thinking the hood scoop route is probably the best bet. I'd just want a rear facing one which is hard to find. might just have to buy the scoop and cut a hole in my hood.
>>

You'd be better off with the intake under the hood inside the engine bay. A rear scoop traversing through standing water creates a low pressure behind it, drawing water in (reason why rear scoops work in performance applications). There's a reason snorkels are as high as they are, and that's not to operate with water right up the intake.

If you want to avoid a scoop, just be mindful of your vehicle's wading depth and approach standing water at a steady pace that pushes a gentle bow wave (usually a 5mph jogging pace). It creates a positive pressure at the front of your vehicle that helps deflect water away. And if you think the crossing is sketchy, wrap a tarp over the front of your truck.

Soooo... been looking for a snorkel and it would seem no one has made one for the 2012s yet?! I guess i'll just put the lift and big tires on for now. Thanks for the help and advice everyone but I'm calling it a night. If this threads still up tomorrow i'll be back.

Hi land patrol bae. Sup, aus

Anyway, the land cruiser group and jeep clubs all go sweeped into snorkels a few years back and a lot of people ended up getting cheaper ones for all their trucks. But only as an add-on. Why are snorkels necessary in some months up there? Rain or dust?
>>
>>17803612
Yo Canady-bro.
>rain or dust?
Both. Outback travel dust is a given, which is why I prefer the cyclonic pre filters over the scoops I mentioned.
And in the wet season up north, just about everything floods, and can be the difference between crawling your way to the next town or being trapped in a community in the middle of nowhere. Not to mention in northern West Australia around the Broome and Derby coast line, tides are normally between six to twelve metres (yep, that's vertical) so it gives you a bigger window of opportunity when exploring the capes up there to be able to cross tidal creeks which can be bone dry, then a flowing river 3 hours later...

While my Monty has a brand name Safari snorkel, it's only because it was fitted when I bought it. Otherwise I'd be more than happy fitting an ebay knock off at about a quarter of the price of a Safari!

Land Battle Cruiser updates?

Cyclonic filters like they have on the defenders are really neat. So are stovepipe. I also always laugh at those people who put the claw backwards on their snorkels and choke their engines. Anyway, any idea where to get the little stovepipe / cyclonic add-on? I got the chinkshit on mine right now.

With your battery setup, get a proper battery management system, whether it's an automatic voltage sensitive isolator or smart electronic system. Then use a relay that has both positive and negative switched outputs going to your auxiliary battery. Have the positive output of the relay linked to the isolator to connect alternator when car is switched on and solar panel on negative when car is switched off. And for the auxiliary battery, use a proper deep cycle. Don't fuck around with another cranking battery as you'll kill it after a few charge cycles. Anything rated at about 100ah will run a 60L fridge for about three days without needing charge. The o the benefit with this setup is you can manually switch the isolator unit to link both batteries in an emergency if your cranking battery takes a shit.

Those bladder liquid storage units are good. Form to any tight space that'd otherwise be tricky to use. I'd use a food grade one for water and stick that in the rear passenger floor space, but I'd look at making or buying (if an aftermarket option exists) an underchassis auxiliary fuel tank. All this helps keep centre of gravity low.

Other than that, for me I'd be looking specifically at mechanical diesel powered vehicles with a manual transmission, and probably crew cab body styles for storage and security.

all cost like $200-500
>>
>>17822441
A simple voltage sensitive solenoid switch is under $100, even cheaper if you go a manual switch (but mah human error). You don't have to go the smart electronic route unless have a voltage regulating alternator.
Plus $30 worth of heavy gauge battery cabling and terminals which you'd have to buy anyway. Then the battery and mount, again, which you'd have to buy anyway.
Anon was after a dual battery setup, I offered the simplest system.
What's your alternative?

Jeep makes Chrysler so much fucking money that there's no way they could sell it. Unless the buyer buys all of FCA in one swoop there's no way they'd let go of their cash cow.

Exactly. That whole story just reeks of sensationalised bullshit and doesn't make a lick of sense. Great Wall approached FCA to buy Jeep on its own. FCA rejected the offer. End of story.

I've been looking at some early 90's F150's and F250's to daily and also maybe do some weekend warrior offroading/overlanding. My budget is $6k but I also need it to be reliable enough to daily. Ideally what should I be looking for? Toyota's seem to all be priced to shit with 200k+ miles

Might go out and do some nice scenic af trails this weekend with the lady.
Nothing fancy. Probably just some chillax trails, go hiking a lil, easy lunch by a lake.

Also gf was talking last night about gow she wants me to go full mt next time I get tires since thats what she had on her tacoma.

>>17831166
I moved over the last week, and hauled a bed two days ago. Later this week in going to be hauling lumber to go help my dad fix his fence that blew over in Harvey. Still no speedo and still no a/c but the floor mat and hole in the floorboard forming a tunnel blasting drivetrain air directly at my calf makes it a moot point. I am saving money to get the floorboard entirely ripped out and rebuilt but that's a ways off so I'm looking at various methods of temporarily patching it just so I can reinstall the interior. And of course there's a new gremlin in the passenger turn signal.

Congratulations, you've just described every single first world car ever. These days you get a world's superior powerplant option, and they maintain their four link coil geometry. You can keep you ox cart CJ/YJ and built quality on the JKs is worlds better than the outdated TJ it replaced. Try making a point that has a degree of substance next time, instead of some mah old car agenda.

I'd be changing out those Toyota 8" diffs, or at least seriously upgrading them if you want to run 35"s with any degree of longevity.

With what?

Never heard about 35s doing any particular harm as long as you dont go too heavy, dont overheat the oil or its already notably worn

Point in case; stock 4Runner with 360 000km on 33's held for nearly two years of abuse until the oil overheated and went boom
>>
>>17832372
This, if you aren't doing hard ass rock crawling you'll be fine with 35" tires and 8" rear diff and IFS front. The worst that'll happen is the front end will wear out quicker, so a little more regular maintenance.

Can't wait to see you rocking those 35s!

Mine is on 4.22's stock, which is not bad. I see a lot of folks saying the minimum for running 35's is a solid 5.00 or above, but it seems a bit overkill for my use. Might be I'll go up to about 4.6 if I feel the need, but we'll see

My want for bigger tires did NOT get weaker when I was helping my bud with mounting his own brand new 35's...

Ha, I would've sworn I recognized that first picture, that's the Mill landing ramp right?

Be glad you don't have a boat to try launching over there, if there's any sort of chop it will break over you stern constantly and get saltwater inside every crevice of your truck, I solely blame that ramp for the rust on the tailgate of my Taco.

As someone who's had to pull my truck out with a come along, they're definitely the ticket for getting unstuck while by yourself. You also need a couple, like 3 minimum, 30' recovery straps and a few D rings to connect them if you're far away from a tree or other object you can use to pull yourself out.

Sure but they probably wouldn't be as clean and then you don't mind thrashing it as much innawoods since that's the case.
Each have their ups and downs.

Also, bluerunnerfag, have you looked into what an SAS swap would cost you? The fifth gen 4runners are really darn comfortable but I wonder if you can put an FJ80 front axle in and if they would still retain the level of comfort. I have seen a few 3rd gen 4runners with the swapped 80 front diff but the 3rd gens are already less comfortable to start with (even with the IFS).
Just wonder if that could be a viable option.

Tires are MasterCraft MXT 32x11.50, the lift is all rough country because they make actual complete kits for reasonable money. Everyone said they ride like shit, but that wasn't really a concern because I have other cars to drive on the road, and I'm not a pussy. And honestly, it drives fine on road, it's a little stiffer than stock, but stock was worn the fuck out so that's not even surprising. Shop cat is doing pretty good, though he has a bit of an eye infection at the moment. He's got himself a bit of a girlfriend that the neighbors abandoned when they moved out, she hangs around too sometimes. I'd ask how things are with you, but I read the threads from time to time still so I'm fairly up to date. And for the record, I've not been the cause of any shitposting in a long time, and won't be anytime soon.

Hm. Tyres look bigger but I guess you just cropped the fenders.

Well, her name is Meredith now. It was Big Head before. They were weird fucking people, but they seemed almost normal. Not only did they abandon her, they left her alone in the house to starve to death. Heard her meowing and smashed out a back window so she could get out, now she comes and goes. But you can tell she is waiting on them to come home. She'll be taken care of though.
The tires actually look kinda small in person, but they're going to be great for flexing once I actually get out on some trails. However they're not long lived, an old timer that has owned a 4x4 garage here in town since the 70s offered to buy them this morning, we settled on a deal where he finds an equal set of 35s and I'll trade him after he buys them.
