    Door-slammer CYJ7+1 buggy

    Looks great. Are you going to skip putting in rear seats, or are they planned for later days? By the by, I personally love the look of the grill in there. You could fill in a little next to the turn signal slots to meet the bards you fabbed, but still it looks super as is.

    Time for a Four Seater - Buggy Build

    I am pretty sure you have likely worked this out already, but just incase someone else reads this thread with the same question... I personally find that when you are getting bubbles back from the release of pressure you can hook a tube to the release valve. Run that down into a cup full of...

    White Rim Open/Closed???????

    Well the article posted on the 12th of September, discussing the closer from the new flood, was apparently superseded on the 13th. Not sure why they even bothered to mention that it was closed if they were going to open it the next day... It seems that it was opened on the 13th from the repair...

    White Rim Open/Closed???????

    So what is the deal with the White Rim this year!? Does anyone know if they have repaired the damaged sections from this years flooding? I know that they got the mineral bottom switch backs repaired, and then a few weeks later a lower section in the more or less flats was washed out...

    2000 4runner. SAS'd, Linked, Locked, BUILT

    Ahhh It is nice to see some colorado trails in there. Holy Cross, never did get to do that one... just too far from C-springs for me to get anyone to go with me. Wheeler lake, on the other hand, was one of my favorite trails in CO. What a nice little jaunt that was! Used to live in...

    Moab, Oct 13-16

    Ah sigh...:-\ That used to be SUCH a nicer trail. I know it is nice that you do not have the bikes riding across the bridge anymore, but still, too bad you can't still drive down to it. I used to really enjoy that trail.:(

    Canada, and USA volunteering trip

    Here are some new photos from our photo contest we have been running. Remember these photos are all taken by Youth, who are learning from outdoors enthusiasts like yourselves, who simply have taken some time to volunteer their skills to teach those who do not have access to the knowledge we all...

    Canada, and USA volunteering trip

    Canada, and USA volunteering trip

    Hello everyone! I just wanted to post this up. Did you know that you can volunteer your time to help give back to the communities you travel through? The Muskoka Foundation is a non-profit NGO that runs volunteer projects for disadvantaged people here in the USA and Canada, as well as in...

    Former ambulance turned 4x4 camper

    That is really a cool looking truck. I ran across this today, and thought perhaps you would like to check this guy out. (I am not affiliated with it, just thought it would be cool) It is already 4x4! http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/cto/1744033716.html 1985 military chevy K30 1 ton CUCV...

    Mahindra dealer in Utah?

    That four door diesel truck just looks SO great. It is a touch homely, but not any worse than the two wheel drive toyota truck has looked for the last twenty years. I think it would be a very nice truck to own though. It really reminds me of the rather utilitarian toyotas that you can get...

    Mahindra dealer in Utah?

    Does anyone know where these are in Utah? The web page says there is one in Orem, Murry, and Ogden, but there is no further information, and apparently no way to get it. Anyone know if they are here yet? I would love to check one out. Thanks

    Looking for a Welder

    Basically I am looking for two supports. Think of something like |_| and yes aluminum would work very nicely, I just have no idea on the costs there. I have also been told that trailer hinges would work well also. If I have to spend a bit more money then that is fine, so long as I can keep...

    Looking for a Welder

    Tacoma, yes, I know that it is highly unlikely to find anything like that. I just do not know what the price points are. As I said, I have seen them for $50. that are meant to hold up to a 40" tire on the back of a truck. That should give you forces of easily over 150lbs. I just do not think...
