    Stock wheels and suspension. Random "utilitarian" mods featured on this great forum.
    If you had an OR, definitely a crawl control and locker moment. Glad you made it through!:bikewhoops:

    The conspicuously mounted Hi Lift Jack and traction boards crowd are taking note.

    A bunch..and no build thread!
    If you had a big lifted setup, you could have just parked on top of that white truck next to you.

    Good job!

    I accidently went into 4L recently when I went through a dirt/gravel road to engage the 4WD system...my Taco started beeping at me! I went...I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

    I quickly changed to 4H and the beeping stopped!

    Friggin' rookie mistake, I know. lol (Time to make fun of Ed)

    You must have read the recent thread where someone asked about engaging the 4WD system periodically so it does not go stagnant (or something to that effect).

    Stock and staying that way
    Hey now. If crawling over boulders in the mall parking garage isn’t what this site is all about, I don’t know what is.

    You should have used your Maxtraxx as bridging boards, obviously. Save 4-lo for the steeper curbs.

    I did something similar years ago in a 4Runner I used to own. Mild lift and 32" A/T Tires. I was in a crowded parking garage with a line of stopped cars behind me, decided I didn't want to wait so I went forward over two sets of parking stoppers (or whatever they're called) and drove through an empty exit :D
