    You may be right, I thought that all GPS was gps-based but they skipped out on it I guess

    Can you see where you are on a trail. I've marked my paper map as best I could with where some of the fun obstacles are.

    And, I think he does a great job of illustrating = trails are clear/visible on the screen and color coded by trail rating.
    Here's an example of the map he made for the Big Creek property across from Uwharrie.

    Is that the property right across from the Outpost? So you get the app then can use his maps?

    pretty sure you're correct.. They don't call it gps, just "location" settings.

    I would like to box in my frame and just put access holes to get to some nuts and bolts. These trucks really do need some reinforcing. Maybe some custom skids for your DB that also adds some rigidity to the lift for fore and aft movement. Reinforce the rear axle huh do I smell a link suspension in the future for the rear.

    I've got adjustable 4 link brackets for a ford 9" :anonymous:. My only experience with linked suspensions was the truck arms we used on the circle track car and drag car set ups which have some similar geometry you want with anti squat and instant centers but after that way different. I can somewhat wrap my head around an offroad one but still would like for someone else to take lead.

    Hopefully not twisting anymore tie rods. I still don't see how you managed to do that to a tie rod and not break or bend anything else, lucky! Have you seen the thread about the HD rack and pinion marlin crawler is working on for the Tacomas. Probably will be pricey but it seems interesting so far.

    Jake is the man. Went to HS with him.

    He’s done the maps for King of the Hammers as well. Plus multiple wheeling areas across the country.

    Yes, it’s geo located on the map displayed on the screen.

    It's not rocket science bro. You need eight 1-1/4" heims. 2"x.25" tube a welder and steel. Maybe a tape measure.

    You can by my cage on my tacoTa
