Toyota Tundras Overlanding Adventure Across Arizona | Epic Desert Expeditions!
In this video, we embark on a serene overlanding adventure as we take the first gen Tundras across the stunning Arizona wilderness. We've got two very different Tundras, Jason's full overland tundra with a Four Wheel Camper and my more stripped-down, simple tundra. Which truck do you like more? The simple ground tent or the big truck bed camper?
This video isn’t just about the thrill of offroading-it’s about slowing down, finding peace in nature, and experiencing the joys of camping under the stars in some of Arizona’s most beautiful landscapes.

Conquering the Toughest Trails: Epic RC Rock Crawling in the Vanquish VRD Carbon!
มุมมอง 187หลายเดือนก่อน
Join me as I take my Vanquish VRD Carbon to the rugged desert terrain for an epic day of rock crawling! 🌵💪 This RC crawler is an absolute beast, but how will it handle the unforgiving desert rocks and challenging obstacles?

Converting a Specialized Epic 8 into an Epic Evo Trail Shredder DREAM BUILD

I converted my Specialized Epic 8 into an Epic Evo trail shredder. I loved the Epic 8 but wanted to bridge the gap between my stumpy, so I broke it down (check out my build video on the Epic 8) and built it into a lightweight ripper. This bike absolutely eats up the trail while climbing like an XC bike. I highly recommend it if you haven't had a chance to ride an Epic Evo. I filmed this myself ...

A NEW DECKED 2.0 System for 2000 - 2006 First Gen Toyota Tundras!

    I’m beginning year three of my 1st gen tundra build and I just ordered TC UCA and LCA. This is an awesome video, I’m building mines exactly as you have shown. I’m 49 years old and this is my project vehicle, my uncle build hot rods, some of my friends old muscle cars and is all good but I want a totally restored and modified 1st gen tundra and I’m glad to have chosen TC for this part of my build.

    If your econoline wanders on the road, your front radius arm bushings need tightening or replaced. Same problem the OBS trucks had with the TTB front suspension. You can actually see it when you back up, the front wheels will squat a little into the wheel wells.

    This a changer for those of us with 1st Gen Tundras with Access Cab. (Can’t speak for double cabs) . I notice that your system is XT3/XT4. You’re using the XT4. The manual shows 2020- to current. Now when you check for Tundra it shows 2020 and other years separately. But it is NOT the XT4. 2023 IS XT4. I’m hoping the current XT4 is the SAME XT4 that you’re using.

    Did you have any problems with the cracked soft line on the power steering cooler? I did this mod and mine ended up leaking like crazy about a week later. Currently looking for replacement hoses and they don't seem to sell the soft line by itself so you have to buy the full assembly just for two small hoses.

    These are definitely not "must-do" suspension upgrades!, For the price of these "upgrades" you can buy another first gen Tundra. A lot of these "failures" of ball joints, spindles, etc, are normally from neglect of maintenance and lifting these vehicles way over than they should be, putting harmful angles on the ball joints. A small mild lift, no more than 2", you will be fine with stock components. If your trying to do some crazy rock crawling, it's time for a solid axle swap or a total custom front end suspension. I find the Bilstein 6112 coil over will be fine for more than 98% of 1st gen Tundra owners.
