2013 T.A.C.O. Moab Gathering OFFICIAL photo thread.

oh he was the one that had the airbags deploy? I was just wondering about why he couldn't make it up. im actually thinking of getting a 13 or 14 4runner trail 4x4, and would love to make it to the next moab meet, whenever that may be. it looks amazing.

 

No I think I was thinking of someone else or it happened on a different trail idk…. I think I was at picture frame arch when everyone ran fins and things

 

Yep, that was the guy who had his side curtain airbags deploy. But that was on 7 mile rim later in the trip.

 

aw c'mon. i had treadwrights and made it up just fine after him.

 

Treadwrights and treadwrights with kedge grip are not equal

 

And if I recal, you started up it, didn't go anywhere, and then flipped on the locker and walked up. He had no locker.

The treadwright comment was only half serious, I really don't know how much difference it makes

 

sure did. i'm just messing with you

 

True. But I have Treadwrights too without any issues.

True^^^^^

Also true. I've been happy with mine for what they are.

 

LOL, the vehicle wasn't the issue. He had a 4th gen like me, and 06' or 07' I would guess. He had the BFG TKO pattern Treadwrights, whatever they are called. He had issues at 7 mile too, not sure what pressure he was running, but high pressure on slickrock doesn't do well.

 

Was waiting for you to chime in. And yeah, was also going to bring that up. He had the AT treadwright (BFG copy) not the MT like the rest of you guys have.

Ozmon, don't let one picutre of one rig change you mind....

 

Hehe, couldn't let a fellow runner get slammed (not really) and not defend them!

Ozmon, I have taken my runner all over Moab without issue, just as capable as a taco, just a little different in regard to the suspension and 4wd system. One thing that is sweet about the runner is the center diff that will allow you to run in an AWD mode, which is great for the slickrock, as you can make sharp turns without binding the system as normal 4wd does on that type of terrain.

 

Nothing is more fun than having to jump out to unlock your hubs on every turn

 

Spooled or autolocked front diff?

 

When I first got my axle it was Lincoln locked
So...
Selectable front locker

 

skydiving period is amazing!!! one day soon ill be a skydiving instructor

 

technically theres no such thing as a "perfectly good airplane"

haha thats one of the things the guy told me as i was going to do my first skydive

 

225 to jump in moab for your first jump ever

its 180 to jump in tooelle for your first jump

 

We had to do this more with our 85 4runner. I know it had a spool in the rear, not sure what else. And don't know what our current crawler has lol

 

cool thanks for the reassurance.
