As part of the cargo build, I'll be putting my old 32's on the trailer, along with a lot more. Stay tuned!

Took a pic while I was shuttling rigs around a couple months ago. Has the wrong slider here. "Wallace" (so named because two of it's keys came stamped with that name) and the TB:

Now that's what I'm talking about. Certainly an outstanding choice for the ultimate in tow vehicle capability.
Do you know about MUD?
IH8MUD is the ultimate Land Cruiser website/forum. Check it out.
Three cheers for the mighty Land Cruiser. If you're new to and want to know more about the Land Cruiser world, hit me off line.

I'm the same user over there too. :) "Wallace" is about to go under the knife and receive a '92 TPI/700R4/NP241 combo.

You done breaking diff gears? As seen and heard on UA vid. Welcome to the list. Make your trailer out of a Sequoia's main body. That would keep it all Toyota....

No trailer yet for me, though I'm working on a design for one. Once I get a trailer, it will be towed with either my 2010 FJ Cruiser:

or my 1964 FJ-40

Image

The FJ Cruiser is my fifth one: two FJ-40's, an FJ-60, an FZJ-80, and now my FJ Cruiser. All were built up, and I'll build up my FJ Cruiser too. I love my Toyotas!

I love how plans change. Just picked up this:

06 Wrangler Unlimited to use as a tow vehicle for a teardrop. Gotta design and build the trailer now.
