Crawling in Moab, UT April 2009.
I was having trouble because I didn't have the rear locker wired up. Of course it doesn't help having wet tires. Unfortunately my baby had to be sold in order to purchase my FZJ80. Filmed and edited by user russtuff.

Rob's 89 Toyota Rockcrawler from 35's to 42's
These are some random clips of my Toyota pickup from Tuttle Creek (near Randolph, KS) and down at Disney, OK. Started out with a Toyota straight axle swap and 35" procomp xterrains... Ended up 1 ton axles (d60/14b) and 42" super swamper IROKs. Had a blast in that rig. Yes the engine was making a loud clatter but kept chuggin' away. The guy I sold the motor to called to let me know the cam was wore so much and that's why we could never get the valves adjusted right. Front springs was a home brew toy rear pack, 63" chevy rears. Running a 2.28+4.7 doubler with twin stick.

Lifted Toyota Supra powered 4Runner
First time I get to give it a little gas in some semi-soft sand in Southern Utah near Lake Powell. (Dried up river beds are fair game. No vegetation, etc)
