    Default Trail Outfitters New Expedition Rig...Toyota 4X4 Chinook

    Here is our new shop expedition build. I found this locally on CL and couldn't help myself. The previous owner took great care of it, and started to restore it. The fiberglass is in near perfect shape, 22r with 20r head, 5 spd trans, and spiffy blue interior. We fit the tires which are 32X11.5 BFG Mud Terrains. Pulls great and should have NO major power issues.

    We will have this down at the Overland Expo in Arizona next month!

    Plans:
    Paint white
    Custom front bumper
    Trail Gear front springs
    Fix some camper mounting points
    Gut interior and build minimal cabinets, kitchen, sleeping area
    Fix passenger door after a failed break it.
    New flooring(not sure what...ideas???)
    Plenty of other ideas!







    Popped up with old tires...

    Very very cool. I have seen a few two wheel drive ones, but never a 4x4 for sale. That is great.

    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"
