KORR! Lol.

Welcome back Ken! Elizabeth looked so over it during that mud run. Also loved the door edit. Short and sweet to the point!

Aw, fresh powder😎⭐️🤩❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Aye yes!!! Loving the videos!! I took my jeep out yesterday and rescued a jeep with no brakes stuck up a mountain.

Nice and sunny snow day.

So glad to see you posting videos again and also glad to see progress in the business effort!

Welcome back Ken and company.

Yo Ken!! Good to see you back in action.

Looks like you are having a great time with that monster!

My wife equipped my Tacoma with a lot of Molle panels and I had no idea what for. Now I know what its used for

Was wondering how things were going the other day. Good to hear from you.

So great to see a new video and to know things are well with the Offroad Hub fam! Buy an extra set of hinges for the tube doors, remove the hinge pins and use a 5/16 pin as the hinge for the stock and tube doors. 2 minute door swap. 😉👍

Welcome back!

I used to love the mud. But after getting a rig of my own, and getting into RC crawling, I now strongly dislike mud. What a giant pain in the ass to clean it all.

Awesome!!

Impressive!

This is awesome!

Hey Ken, Nice to see you back. I was beginning to believe you feel of the Planet. I’m so glad to hear about the new Garage congrats. I do hope we see more of you soon.

Ho man!! You just made my day, love your videos Ken and what a monster Fj you built.

Great to see you again Ken. I’ve got a 2nd transfer case to install sure wish you were a little bit closer. Looks like Rubithon will be in the snow, in June. Happy trails.

Can't wait for Rubithon!

I could see it coming! Minimalist tube doors, cool factor BUT... very impractical on cold and muddy days. Should had put the doors back on it. Probably would have had a great time without having to cut the trip short AND, wouldn't had crapped the whole interior. 😂

Keep it coming Ken

A+

Really awesome very nice shop! One day we should meet up and do Merus adventure Park South of Amarillo Texas, Really want to do their trailrecon trail. You would definitely be able to pull me out when I get stuck 😂

Wow, I would have asked for a divorce after a trip like that. :) I'd customize the tube doors with a detachable plexiglas panel for situations like this: when there is rain, mud, etc. It's transparent, lightweight, can be cut/molded/bent in the shape you need. It won't stop all the rain and wind, but the interiors and the passengers will be dry and clean. It could be fixed in several ways, even welding to the door tubes 4-5 slots for bolts or screws. You would have the visibility, the shelter and a durable material. Just saying, but in this way you can still go out with bad conditions.

I was just thinking about my favorite fj on YT. It great knowing that your still wheeling i being to think that your new place took over you for bit.

Try to make an acrylic skin for the doors. You have a very good looking snow plow! Good job pulling the Jeep, that's what Toyotas are made for, hahaha just kidding. Ken if I may ask a question, not counting your FJ, what is your dream rig if money is not an object?

I've thought about door skin options. I don't think I have one dream rig. I would like a collection of purpose built vehicles, of money weren't a concern. A buggy, an overland camp vehicle, a trophy truck, etc... 😄

Good to see you back! How is it driving on the highway at 60-70mph with full hydro steering I'm very curious about this I see more and more people running full hydro on the road.

@offroadhub.official

Жыл бұрын

The only big difference is that there is almost no return to center. Other than that, it feels the same as normal steering. I also run very little caster, more caster might help it a little return to center.

Yeah man! Just thinkin’ about you…. Glad all is well. Snow wheeling is such a different beast! 🤙 Hey Ken… curious, what size and type of axles are you running front and rear?

@offroadhub.official

Thanks! I'm running a Dana 60 up front and a Sterling 10.5 in the rear, with 42" interco irocks.

@@offroadhub.official I don’t think I’m ever going to see 42’s. Always pondered an SAS on the 4Runner… but not likely. Plans are to potentially go RCLTHD up front “one day”. But since I’m set up for touring I need to strengthen my rear axle from the stock 8”. I’m on 4.88’s with an air locker but unfortunately I was a dummy and didn’t think to go bigger before I did that. It’s a toss between a Dana 60 or a Diamond 9.5 in the rear atm so I figured I’d see what you had going on. Thanks brother. 🙏 I do wish your shop was closer to me here in NM but one day maybe when back in Idaho… So happy you got that going. Was thinking about opening up something similar here down south. 🤙

You should modify your doors to be able hang them back on quickly.

Yeah, that's why I didn't go. Snow wheeling is fun but lots of getting out and hooking up towing gear. Fortunately mud is finally back.

The good thing about snow, vs mud, is that snow is at least very clean!

Your crazy, I’ll keep my doors

Is this a preview of what Rubithon will look like?! I hope not!

@offroadhub.official

Жыл бұрын

I'm hoping there'll be at least a little snow left on the Rubicon!

A lot of snow tires are narrow and run higher pressure. They also eject snow well.

Yea, there is a point where that can actually become really life threatening, really fast, if hypothermia sets in.

That's no joke! Fortunately we were never that far from others, and the heat in the FJ is extremely hot!

If you are looking for subjects to talk about, I am interested in your engine and drivetrain maintenance program.

I end up changing oils and fluids at pretty low mile counts, but usually time is what I consider. For instance I just changed the oil, after maybe 500 miles, but after 6 months.

I can tell you Ken , after those two last adventures, my wife would be giving me paperwork for a divorce. Especially the mudfest without doors😂
