TEC || Yotas That Crawl Weekend || August 11 -13, 2023

did it break while sitting in the driveway?

 

Giggity, I just luv a proper dig.

Bravo

 

Lowest cost solution:

 

Hope to see you get another rig someday

 

oh he'll get another rig. he's been at it a very long time, its in his blood.

IMPORTANT: have recovery gear accessible for this trip, make sure your winch is working! TEST IT! Check your truck mechanically! This is going to be great trip!


winched respooled and wiring fixed today secured a loose panel on the bumper and washed out the rad and condenser. couple of other maintance things to do b4 the trip. will be doing the rtt annex thing this time around but cant find not even one video on the enthuze rtt annex, werid.

anyway getting ready...

 

Goes to show the quality of arb I guess. Been in the truck since 2018 and has an internal leak.

Wouldn’t expect anything less.

although true, to weld an arb would be hurtful lol.

 

Front lower shock mount bushing won't be here until Thursday. It's going to be close! FML

 

Fingers crossed they will be hear in time.

 

How many days till yota crawl?

Axle seals here tomorrow and double checking some stuff on the diff as the arb has been acting funny

 

You're going to make it. Brad's going to make it. We're all going to make it no one is going to break down and everyone's going to have a good time

 

Good times for sure!

 

If you need a hand just say the word I'm free all Friday

 

Thanks, appreciate the offer! I’m hoping to have it all buttoned up tomorrow and worst case, work in the rain Thursday. Diff is going back in tonight and I’m finally going to get around to changing the rear brake lines that I ordered after last years yota crawl today too. Then tomorrow is axle seals and buttoning up everything.

 

Time for a canopy tent in the driveway?

 

Got one ready to go lol

 

I was just checking out the itinerary. Saturday sure will be a busy day and I remember camping at sullivan lake with the truenorth guys long time ago.. If I can remember correctly its a small spot. I dident know anyone rally, there was a black 1st gen toyota truck single cab with a visor, a yellow fj that cought on fire, a big gold or brown land cruiser body style of a lx470 and me with the runner and might of been 1 or 2 more.. good times.

 

Hell of a trip it sounds like.

 

well seem like this is the just in time version of yota crawl and while I'm not waiting for parts I have an annex for my rtt comming from Moncton NB. its still there. not critical or anything but as I get older its not a pretty sight in the morning so just trying to lessen the "scaring for life" hahaha.

 

Getting ready, all I know - there is going to be lots of trees and tight turns.
