  • Somehow I found myself on a super sketchy tail called Moab Rim with off road legends ‪@DirtLifestyle‬ ‪@MarlinCrawlerMedia‬ and ‪@bleepinjeep‬. As a novice off roader who is still really new to rock crawling I was the least equipped and least experienced wheeler on the trails that day and to make it worse my #toyota #tacoma continued to present new issues I had never anticipated. If you're considering a set of Method Bead Grips for your rock crawler you should be sure to check out this video.

    Open that door when using a high lift. This will save you from unnecessary body damage.

    Wow this was intense! I was considering bead grip for my 35 KM3s to shed some weight from my current beadlocks. I like to do similar rock crawling stuff. I guess I need to reconsider!

    Go air lockers and onboard air and leave your particular finicky e locker behind! Also I don’t think your bead grips were seated 100% I’ve heard they are difficult. Like they hold air under most circumstances but under stress they show it

    • @Maxx.Powell
      @Maxx.Powell  Год назад +1

      Sounds like a plan to me. And yeah I think you’re right about the bead grips

    If youre telling yourself its OPEN AND OPEN and youre on the trail and not the trailer. Keep it Maxx! Im taking my 3GT to moab again for a second time and this time with a whole new attitude with my tacoma. Have you had any electrical issues? Ive been having a slight haywire with mine only recently. (Cluster flashes, abs is off, speedo goes whack)

      @Maxx.Powell I'm right there with you. I just found out my buddy fixed his tacoma abs/cruise control issues by pulling a simple tow brake fuse. I'm going to be cleaning up my truck this weekend too. Removing wires and everything! Good luck to you bud! Remember. Don't change the tundra !😁

    Get me some rock assault axles from trail Gear. But don't get the springs! 3 link front and 4link the back. A jeep engine can't beat a toyota engine. Or get a jeep and put a 5.7 Tundra engine in it. Or just find a fj40

    That taco has bed. Beat to shit for the last 6 years or however long I've been watching your channel. You just can't look at a shiny new truck and wonder why yours isn't up to snuff lol
    After seeing RCLT in person, you should strongly consider it. Just look at Nate and Mike's Tacos.
