    Too many to list, and I've probably forgotten a bunch.
    Reminds me of the area south(?) of the Leviathan tower...road to company meadows. All sorts of interesting graffiti on the trees in there.

    The top of this canyon has a bunch of sheep herder carvings from the 1800s.

    Another @RelentlessFab bumper installed. Big fan of the way this bumper looks, I look forward to years of use and abuse. The winch space is a little tight so I had to remove the control box to get it installed so waiting on a relocation mount to complete the wiring but it fit nevertheless.Front Bumper Cropped.jpg Winch Clearance.jpg

    Hey all, so I have the all pro offroad expedition leaf springs on my taco. I was wondering if any of you have ran them. Theyre super stiff and im not loving it. I don't really wanna buy new leaf springs, I just wanna remove a couple leafs so my rear end is softer and I can flex it more when needed. Any tips would be great too if you've ran them!

    Do you have any extra weight in the back? Those are designed for 500lbs extra constant load so they’d probably be stiff if you’re not carrying extra weight.

    Right now I'm at about 175lbs. I planned on having about 400 of constant load but decided to go another route

    I’d just call or email them and ask them if you can remove any leaves and which ones they’d recommend.

    That's a good looking truck, I spotted the CH plates in another photo, but haven't seen it around town.

    Thank you and looking back I don't think I've seen yours either surprisingly just a few other 3rd and 2nd gens but I do think I saw your 80 series out for sale just a little while back... pretty surprised it hasn't sold yet but seems out here to many folks are interested in diesels w/ 12" lifts on 24" rims that stick out far enough for it to be considered a wide load.

    Yeah I had it parked out for a few days, quite a few people looked at it, no takers. It's a pretty niche vehicle so most ppl see the miles and the price and think I'm nuts... and maybe I am.

    Anyone want to do some snow wheeling this weekend? Or even just some exploring offroad? Don't want to be solo when its this wet and sloppy out there.

    I might be down if it was something fairly easy. I'm on snow tires (i.e. small and no open lugs) and have no front skid since I imploded the stock unit on the last snow trip. Am more or less a mall crawler at this point...
