Ummm. Skids....

 

Unfortunately they aren't nearly as beefy as the Archive Garage skids I got for the rear sensors - no robust mounting points on the spindle. Slightly more protection from the odd tree branch.

 

ABS sensor skid gang



I dont care what @tacoma16 says, when I bought em they said SKID plate

 

If you get the $$$$ Camburg spindles, they move the ABS sensor to the top of the hub for extra protection.

 

Good to know, for future purchases

 

And I’m over here trying to delete the rear sensors and figure out how to delete the front for axle swaps. Will loose abs and the traction control stuff (unless I integrate into new axles) but for the rear speed sensors, that will be picked up at the tcase.

 

If you can't integrate into the new axles... couldn't you give them the same signal as you do for the rear...? Won't help with the ABS and TC but would fool the computer for the most part.

 

one ton axle swap is a drastic change to the vehicle drive train, as such other drastic changes might be in order.

forget traction control
forget abs
and loose the bulbs in the dash
eventually you'll have an atlas for for get the t case too..

your going from a panther moving in the bush to an black rhino who moves the bush...

 

I orettt much expect an abs light. However are trucks depend on the speed sensor for the shift points in the tranny. Easy enough to do with some wiring.

 

Manual transmission swap can fix that.

 

I hear you man. please document everything, part #'s, install instructions and even homemade parts.

that is something i wish i had done in the past and now im older i forgot it all.... lol.

if you have a build thread of this please share

 

Entering the Red Zone. Lockdown preparations...

So what are you gonna drink after the weekend?

 

I’ll worry about that Monday morning.

 

at least save one for breakfast..lol

 

Could not stop thinking about this trail being a mess. Had to go back and get it all cleaned up.

Got rid of the widow maker.



Got some firewood, its not hardwood but it will burn so meh.

 

I’m a bad driver as it is. Auto for the win lol.

I will let you know.
Right now I (and you) can use a manual speed sensor that goies into tcase. Allows you to get rid of the speed sensors and keeps everything toyota. I’ll be documenting this the best I can.

 

Appricated because I'm a monkey see monkey do kind of guy.

 

Picked up this milwaukee inverter today. It uses any of their 18v batteries and you can use USB-A or USB-C or 175w inverter. Playing around a bit with it this afternoon, I was able to power the camp fridge with a 5amp battery for a little over 4hrs. I'm impressed.
