Hmm... his profile says he drives a Tatra Kolos. Maybe all he needs is fuel?

Rex, One note about the throttle lock: If you are getting sleepy at all stop using it until you stop for a break. The constant rpms make you more tired, and if you do doze off it would be better for the bike to begin slowing down a bit (due to your wrist relaxing) which might wake you up a...

I don't know how the laws work where you are, but in NJ I have had two vehicles totaled due to the actions of others. In both cases I was able to negotiate at least 25% more than the insurance company's first offer and still keep the vehicles with intact, non-salvage titles. The key to the...

Someone around here had set up a filtered blower to create positive pressure inside his truck cap to keep dust/water out. I just don't remember who. He had a website about his truck build and I think it was also about where he went with it. The truck, that is...

If it is true that what does not kill us makes us stronger, you will be "Hulk Hogan" by the time this is through. Or maybe Rocky Balboa...:sombrero: Rocky Balboa... (Meant in the most positive light possible...:) )

Atta boy! :victory:

So you are planning to have a tow bar installed and ready IN CASE the truck dies, NOT planning to tow it all the way, right? Either way, you are going to get some ribbing from the Jeep and Rover guys :jump:

I don't know the pace you are keeping on the highway, but slowing down helps both fuel and oil consumption. It can be less fatiguing too. Maybe drive 55-60 MPH? You can stop every two hours to add gas and oil and do some exercises to stay alert. (Jumping jacks help me, YMMV) While I agree that...

If you note the bearing numbers and call some trailer axle suppliers (Dexter Axle, ABC Trailer Parts, Franklin Trailers, etc.) they may be able to sell you "loaded hubs" with new bearings, seals, retainers, etc. and send them to your door. www.abctrailerparts.com www.dexteraxle.com...

Has it been in to the dealer for the "frame rust" recall? There was a ball joint recall too. Was the water pump replaced when the timing belt was done? The rear frames sometimes get bent if the truck is overloaded, tows too much weight, or is tied down (on a trailer) too tightly. Some trucks...

All the ones I found were white (opaque) on the sticky side...the clear on both sides that you found would work though!

Like this? Or a more permanent solution...

Hey Trump, did you regear for your 285's? I see the ARBs, but I'm wondering what gears you have and if you would stick with the same ones again. Assuming you stuck with the 2.7, of course. To the OP: The $20,000 budget sounds like a great starting point as long as you plan on keeping...

Correction...you all should read my entire post before getting on the "bash wagon". :coffee: Please check your ADD at the door. The first paragraph was tongue-in-cheek, and I followed with nothing but praise for the 2.7. :sombrero: :victory:

I agree, if you are in Colorado with big mountains, the V6. In Maryland and our "little" east coast hills, either will work for you.

Well, the 4cyl Tacoma motor (2.7 L) is junk. My ex has ours, and after only 130,000 miles it already has thrown it's first CEL code. #3 coil failed. Can you imagine??? Only 130K and already falling apart? Jeez. Seriously, the above is true. The truck has been under my care since 2005 and...

Rain with a little sleet on the coast, 34.8 degrees. :coffee: Hubs are locked, parked facing the road, shovel on the front porch...this storm better be worth all the trouble of preparing. I have like eight minutes into this already! :rolleyes:

IIRC, there are small fuel screens in the injectors on that vintage TBI. Might be worth a look. If there are two injectors, are they "spraying" evenly under load? Is the timing advancing/retarding as it should? I don't remember how the HEI in that vintage operates, but a stuck vacuum advance...

Look through HERE on the Adventure Trailers site...there are a few threads here on ExPo about torsion axles too.
