    Amsoil all day. Worth the extra 15-20 bucks for the absolute best oil you can get!

    How do you know if you put too much grease in the drive shaft yoke? You had said no more than 4 pumps, but i think i forgot and pumped more. What problems could this create?

  • @JasonExplainsThings

    Doing too much can make the slip yoke not go in and out enough, which can cause damage. If you’re afraid you put too much in you can remove the grease fitting, compress the slip yoke and all the grease will come out. If you put only a little too much in it’s likely not a huge deal. It’s more a problem if you way overdid it.

    Would lithium based NGLI 2 "Red and Tacky" be appropriate for all three zerk fittings on the proper shaft? The manual of course has two different types listed for the spider joint and the slide yoke, but ultimately says you can use lithium NGLI 2 grease on everything.

    In the past 24 hours I've ended up on this channel twice for two very different things. This was due to me searching for American made oil change tools, and the other one came up as a suggestion after watching some 4Runner content. Small world!

    Majority of DIY home mechanics don't need 12 Ton jack stands. Use that money to buy a better quality jack or power tools. I'd recommend checking out US General tool chests at Harbor Freight. Better build quality than what you find at Costco, lowes homedepot etc.

    Wife and I have been thinking about doing a 'his and her's' duo rigs. She loves our Subaru Ascent which as you know is already built. I'm thinking of picking up an older 4runner and building it out for myself. So far we've only done adventures with the whole family. I've never gone solo (or solo with our dog). Lately I've been wanting to go out on solo trips when the kids aren't feeling up to it. Although my Wife wants to go adventuring just as much as I do. :)

    i really enjoyed your videos that ive seen. thanks guys! i nailed down a date for the WABDR and im going soon... no one can (wants to) go with me this time, im doing the first half solo i guess. all my off-road pals are too old to sleep on the ground etc...i was the youngest one in our bunch and now i am about to step into geezerdom myself in a couple of years. to be fair, most of my off-road adventures have been rock crawling over the past two and a half decades. now i am wanting to camp and explore. i have a new vehicle for this purpose JT-DR (keeping my old jeep too) and i am very excited to meet like minded individuals who wanna do the same kind of stuff. i love the layed back, goofy friendship you guys have, im going to get there again!

    Had a Toyota Camry following me through one section on my trip. They kept getting out and placing rocks in ruts and dips. Not all sections are crazy hard. Lol On the jungle section you better bring some tree pruners otherwise you will definitely go home with forest pinstripes.

    For sure. Consider some true AT tires along with the ability to air down and up. Go with friends. Bring recovery gear. A 4Runner won’t have any trouble. You might find mud and snow early in the season that would require more capability (winch, skid plates, etc)

    I put this exhaust on my 4runner last year because I could not stand the drone of the OEM TRD catback exhaust at highway speeds. The NDT absolutely got rid of that and the exhaust still sounds good.
