    Overloaded heavy duty OME dakars?

    So the rear of my truck has been bouncy for the last few months, basically after I put on the CBI rear bumper with tire carrier, spare tire and hi-lift. And I though it was the wimpy looking 2.0 icon shocks that just could not handle the job, but when talking to the ICON guys at SEMA they...

    Sema 2018

    Here are photos from today. These are just taco’s. I post other content on my IG: m8us_actual And Magnuson will not be releasing a supercharger for the 3rd gen anytime soon because they can’t crack the ECU. :-(

    Oh damn! Yeah TT setup could be much better than an SC. Especially with the new fast spool turbos. Can’t wait!

    Sema 2018

    Anyone else going to SEMA this year? I have a ticket and a hotel, but getting the time off work is still up in the air. If I do go it will be Thursday, Friday (Nov. 1-2nd.) I know it will be a Jeep JL shit show this year, but I am really hoping for Magnuson to release their supercharger so I can...

    Reference Ask a beginner question, get a serious answer!

    Yes, all of that. I also believe the torsen is always locked when in straight line and delivering partial power when turning as each wheel rotates at different speed. This is fine for a rear axle, but front can become somewhat of a pain as you may be turning your wheel left and right to get...

    Overlander Prime a '16 TRDOR build

    Thanks! I am looking forward to going to SEMA this year to see what new stuff is offered. Hoping for Magnuson to release their supercharger so I can get it asap.

    Recall Latest TSB Update (Fixed Shifting)

    Yeah, you have to bring the printout of the actual TSB and show it to them. Then explain that this has been happening at some specific point - prefferably that matches what the TSB says. One of the recent ones said at higher elevations... so i mentioned I have a house in the mountains where I go...

    Overlander Prime a '16 TRDOR build

    Thanks! Yeah, my buddies and I went kayaking and letting the dogs play at a near lake. Took the long way, dirt road to where we ended up as we wanted to play with the articulation on the trucks and it was nice and washed out. Got to the lake, which was very low due to the drought, and kayaked...

    Recall Latest TSB Update (Fixed Shifting)

    Does anyone know the blower motor TSB yet? Mine has been slowly slowing down and even at max and inside air it's not blowing all that much. I did the tranny TSB and it made a huge difference in standard mode - not ECT Power. I always take my taco to Bell Road Toyota with the TSB printed in hand...

    Arizona Parts Train

    Hey guys just an FYI, I drive a lot between Tucson, Phoenix and Flagstaff. We have offices in Tuc and Phx so I am at one of them during the week, and I have house in flag that I go to on the weekends when it's not rented out. So any of you that need to get parts in between these 3, message me...

    Suspension Recommendations

    I ran the OME yellow with Dakar leafs and now run ICON's stage something with non adjustable resis. The OME I ran are OME90000 firm ride struts, with the OME 886X coils in front and Dakar in the rear -...

    On board Co2

    I use CO2 for inflation and a small HF compressor as a backup in case a run out. I would honestly have a hard time noticing this as the tires are one pressure in the morning, different in the afternoon or after driving, depending on how you park - the sunny side tires may be higher and then...

    Camping

    Also, I agree with others that if you do plan on going more often, it is best to have stuff in bins, divided ready to go. I used the waterproof ridgid cases from home depot and a couple gun cases for larger items. The ridgid cases connect together and are easy to fasten down and manipulate. I...

    Camping

    Depends on how light you want to go. My camping has turned into glamping at this point with all the gear and trailer. But when I did the Rubicon a couple months ago I just had my 2 person tent, chair, camp stove and 3 layer military sleeping bag. For your tent get yourself one of these, they...

    What exhaust do you guys have installed? If any?

    Here is my write up on the MBRP turn down. Right now it's sitting in my garage as a spare in case I crush/badly damage my stocker. http://phoenixoverlandgroup.com/2017/02/04/mbrp-turn-down-exhaust/

    Camper shell?

    Hey I have prinsu and love the design, but do yourself a favor and upgrade your hardware. The bolts it comes with snap easily (at least in my case.) Also the fasteners/loops/slide-in-bolts can be purchased much cheaper online in quantity - let me know if you need links to them.

    Camper shell?

    I did the bedrack with RTT for a while. I even had all my gear ready in dry boxes to head out and explore almost every weekend. Worked out great for what it was intended. I decided to remove it all however because it was also my daily at the time and I was putting about 40K miles a year on the...
