You did not advise which way to turn the headlight adjustment nut. The info on the plastic faring that cryptically shows how to adjust up or down makes no sense to me. Must be Japanese thinking. 😉 Which way to lower?

My 07 pilot engin and vtm4 come on when it's going rain like 2 days before

I took my '03 pilot off roading a few times - I was blown away by its capabilities ... who knew?

I have an 03 honda pilot just recently the tire lock light has been coming on when it's not supposed to

Got the same ride & 3" lift , 315 Toyo's , Rear Tow Hitch. It Kills.

Hi, I installed Moog 81649 rear springs and now I feel like the SUV is higher in the rear and lower in the front. I am using Kumho AT51 235/70R16 A/T tires. How can I make the SUV sit flush between the rear and the front have the high seam?

Just installed a set of the Toyo Open Country AT3 in 245/70R16 (stock size) and I'm very happy with them. Bought them this past Friday and Sunday and Monday, we got around 6 inches of snow and over half inch of ice. They've been excellent in the snow! The 4WD system coupled with these tires is a great combo.

The pilot is a large scale SUV. The CRV is better for comparing to the RAV4.

How have the rear tuff country shocks been treating you?

Bro rev it up 😢

The emblem gets rained on by the driver breath. That's why it changes.

Our 2020 Honda Pilot Elite gets flashed fairly often. I just adjusted mine but agree with you that the factory setting is too high.

It's a damn shame that method discontinued the 502 in a 16x7 😢

Horrible place to put antenna. Get a lip mount.

One problem with your placement of your antenna is the rack and your cargo carrier. I would recommend getting a small piece of metal that the magnet fits on 90 degree bend with pre drilled holes to mount to the rack its self. That way it’s above the obstructions.

you guys should try getting on the death road in Bolivia I'm sure you will have fun .. love your videos

Love your Passport.. I agree with the guy in the beginning.. looks sick!!

Love the German swearing!! Awesome video! I wish there were festivals like that near me in Eastern PA. I have my eyes on the coming '26 Passport Trailsport and your vid gets me more excited for that. Thanks for sharing!

I KNOW THIS IS PROBABLY A STUPID QUESTION BUT WHAT PHONE MOUNT DO YOU HAVE IN YOUR PASSPORT?

Glad you guys are out having fun but serious question. Why not sliders and skids before the lift and all the other stuff?

I didn't realize you had to stop 2/3 the way up the shoot and re-start, very impressive and great driving line on that down hill tippy spot that looked so scary when the people in front of us did it. I'm in the BS and took the right hand approach, through the cut through, immediately before the tippy spot but if I'd have seen you go through first I'd have my brother spot me for the line you took there!! Ben, from HRG, really showed everyone how to do the spot where you took the door damage but that was after both of us had already done it.

It doesn’t look bad on the video, how bad is it?. Seeing Ian’s door at 5:34, that hurts… Uwharrie is so mean, it’s the only place I have done damage to my rig.

It was less stressful with the old Pilot. Your wife doesn’t seem like she is having fun with the new car. I would too.

You all need to come run 24 Hours of Appalachia.

Great job capturing the difficult afternoon ride! I'd say you did a proper job on the maiden voyage.

Good video. These are some really gnarly trails, and I heard about the trail damage this day but didn’t know you took some on too. Rock sliders are a good idea, but not totally sure if it would have saved the day. My favorite thing about this video was seeing you conquer the steep climb that you attempted in the old Pilot. Gearing and transmission type really make all the difference, and seeing you continue on from a complete stop was awesome.

Nice pilot. Is it lifted? Thinking about getting one. Thanks in advance.

Wow man. It looked like you just kissed that wall all the way down the passenger side. Once it slid into that rut, there was no going back. I hope the damage was minimal. The beauty with to old pilot was, any new scratches and dents are battle scars. No one will care. But you can't say the same with a brand new rig.

Future Aaron still alive 😂

Is your pilot still overheating after changing headgasket?

great trip but scary at some spots. Which state is this in?

“AWD Fest” aka “Trail destruction fest”. I long for a day when these grocery getters and snow cars with no Lo-range start getting banned from trails. In 40 years of wheeling I’ve never seen such ruined trails as I have in the last few since awd and razors became popular.

A # 2 phillips, fits in that gear perfectly.

The right Is a very long 14 or 16 inch #2 Philips head screwdriver. And you're right they're all too high.

Hey @Gotter Adventure, i recenlty bought a 2005 honda pilot with a blown engine got it up and running. Replaced springs struts axles control arms tie rods and added a 2.5 inch lift in the front and moog springs in the back which added about 2 inch in the back. My question to you is what your front end camber was like and if you could get it near zero and what you did to accomplish this. Thanks in advance for any response!

My 05 Pilot with 256k miles makes a knocking noise over bumps. Front end is tight, including the ball joints and lower A-arms. I wonder if strut mounts would cause the knocking. How would I know, or is there anything else to check?

Thank you!

Sick Pilot! Whats your tire size and does it grind at bumps?

Those look nice. You will probably still get a little bit of the sand and stuff under the mats ( I know that I do with my Weathertech Mats, somehow it still finds a way in there), but those look like they will do a far better job of protecting the carpet than the original ones.

With the fun and adventure you are having, have you considered undercoating for all the water, mud and gunk?

headlights all good now? what about the fog lights? are yours too low / dim? My PP fogs are only about 10 foot from the bumper - adjustment?

I didn’t see the Xterra go through the deep mud where the Pilot got stuck.???

My 2004 Pilot drivers side seat belt would get wet in a heavy rain ???? I removed the rail cover on the roof rack and saw a very fine crack in the weld for the bolt support. I gave it a good cleaning and caulked it with silicone. So far so good!

trying to remove the floor box over the spare, jack & tools from my 2025 - should be just like yours. Have you done that yet?

Just my new PASSPORT! yea!! now to follow your lead -- any idea how to carry a jerry can of gas inside the cargo area for the lawnmower?

Cool stuff! Thank you for sharing.. wanted a 4 runner but have a family. This seems like a good option! Why wouldn’t you just rebuild the motor? Keep it going for ever!

@GotterAdventure This was a great video. Very easy to understand and follow. Im looking to buy this same vehicle this weekend with a head gasket issue and hopefully not much more. I wanted to ask you, how much money did you spend overall (close estimate, ball park, or total actual cost) for me to perform this job? Also, do you require any special tools to tackle this project? Thank for this video. Have a good one!!!!

2008 Pilot EX-L 4x2, 3rd owner but I've had driving access since new. Rear suspension sag - accidentally had 4wd springs installed, mislabeled. Issue - leak on front floorboards, both sides. Sealed both sides under fender with sealer and plugs. looking into moon/ sunroof leak, evident with water at hood release. looking for schematic for location and routing of drain hose. 117,000 miles, no major problems, only general maintenance.

good job! looking forward to your interior mods so I can copy you! I thought JonDz was the only Passport guy around!

I have a 2009 honda pilot with almost 200000. Still going in Buffalo, NY weather. Comes out quickly in 2 feet of snow. Tried in 3 feet with some struggle but still survived.
