    In a couple weeks I'm heading to an event called mid Atlantic overland festival. About 4 hours away, it's exhausting driving it long distance especially with the rack full of camping gear.
    Speaking of camping gear....I have a fridge heading my way! Dometic is a sponsor of the event so they had a special, 10% off with a free insulation cover. So pretty fair deal.
    And to make room for the fridge I played around with moving the hi lift from inside the truck to the rack.

    Ahh, makes sense. Plus it’s easy to take on and off so for 4 hours it’s worth it.

    That’s a fair deal! What size? Did you get a slide?

    4 hours each way! They will have some wheeling runs but from the videos of other years it looks pretty light.
    There's still tickets available if anyone is interested :thumbsup:
    Cfx40w.. No slide yet, haven't decided where I'm mounting it yet. Plus we will be moving it between the truck and the Subaru depending on where we camp.
    Just looking forward to no soggy food by day 4.

    Fill the tires with calcium. It adds traction. :mudding:

    So the @Mobtown Offroad front bumper comes with these braces that use the sway bar holes and hardware. Since I don’t run a swaybar, I only found 3 out of the 4 bolts needed. Today I decided to upgrade all 4 bolts to the metric equivalent of grade 8, which is class 10.9. So shiny and beefy. Bolt size is M10x1.25 30mm long

    I tell ya, I have been paying close attention to these threads. I am seeing some very disturbing pics. First, I think it was Mike or David, hung up on a try in a culvert by their sliders (long time ago) Then Randy @EatSleepTacos decides to turn his LB into a teeter totter. Then Tyler @twheat40 decides the easiest way to wash a 4Runner is submerge it. Then today I saw (shit, can't remember his name) had his freaking truck on it's side. Which I am sure all the Fn compound in the world aint buffing out those "pin stripes".

    I feel like with my luck I should buy a used POS atv and trailer that bitch to any place all of you all go for "fun". I Fn know no lift I can afford is gonna protect me from the shit I have seen!

    What I need is the M1A1 mod!!! J
    Heyzues, I am started to have nightmares about this shit. And I am not even scheduled to go any time soon!!!!!! I'm gonna need to up the intake of my stress meds. AKA BLO!

    Edit - went back and looked! It was Lloyd @Subway4X4 !!! He's the guy that feels driving on the side of the truck is just better all around for him and the earth!!!!!!! WTF!!!!?
