One of these can do the job. Usually techs have tech stream that does it all.

gotta need to order myself one of those

I have 2 sets of rims, 1 for winter and the other for summer.

My old Ford Escape just let me throw on whatever and it would pick up the sensors after 50km of driving or so.
The KO2's that i run now/ winter, has the TPMS installed through 4wheelparts when i ordered a set of rims and rubber last year, not knowing that Toyota can't switch through multiple sets of sensors like my Ford could.

Toyota said they'd charge me $30 to reset the sensors each time if i wanted to



i'd rather spend the $30 on black electrical tape to block out the light on the dash.

 

yeah the warranty coverage is north america from my understanding.

 

Must be some NASA-grade electrical tape to cost $30

I took off the OEM wheels and tires the day after I got my truck. The TPMS light has been on since then. I've gotten used to it.

On a related note, in 4Lo with the rear locker engaged, the instrument cluster lights up like a Christmas tree, so it's easy to miss an abnormal warning light. Last year in Ardbeg, I mistakenly crawled up an offshoot with the parking brake engaged...

 

nope, buy the really cheap $1 stuff 30 times and if it falls off after a week, throw on another piece!


but yes, do agree with crawl control on. it looked like the entire truck was celebrating christmas

 

When we went trailing with Chris and jeep guys I had that moment Christmas came earlier....

 

so question; are there any decent front facing cameras that you guys would recommend?

tried piecing together a makeshift front cam last night using my Gopro, a mini quickfist that was too small for anything, and some tip ties. not permanent which is fine and not breaking the bank since i have this stuff already - just wondering if there is something out there you guys know about
ended up with something like this;

 

This is basically my setup with a Hero7 mounted to the bumper hoop. When I'm not wheeling, I simply remove the camera and leave the mount in place. Only problem? The GoPro isn't stable enough to run continuously for 4-5 hours at a time. In Ardbeg, it worked on Friday, but kept freezing on Saturday.

Another solution is to run a wireless backup camera. Find one that lets you toggle between normal- and mirrored views. This one looks promising but I haven't tried it: https://www.amazon.ca/Wireless-Android-Viewing-Waterproof-Universal/dp/B07P8XDNPK/

 

Expo AF

 

THAT'S PRETTY WILD

so are you picking up your amazoom $100 RTT there?

 

I’ll hunt them and I will get it!


Get your picture requests here, all kinds of gear around. More pics to come later!

 

yeah, currently doing the same thing as you are my hero3+ silver
however the quickfist gets removed from the grille instead of the camera itself.

also that back up camera plate frame is neat

 

Can't you get a go pro app and turn it on/off with it? That will take continuous running out of the equation...

 

you can turn i off, but to turn it on - you need to get out of the truck.
At least that's my case.

 

Do we have a wing night coming up?

 

I was planning to have one on the 2nd or 3rd week of November.

 

Took my cap off. Now i can tow bigger right

 

Some highlights from today.

 

Now that is overland. Who thinks to put a rack on their hood?

 

I've seen a few 4runner rigs on instagram with that setup. I love that look. Ecotechne is based in Venezuela, checked them out when I was looking for a roof rack. Love how their rack fits nice and snug to the body.
