yes... the fluctuating idle makes it seem like your truck is sick...

oh, not what you meant? hehehehehe...

i do gotta say for a truck as heavily modded as yours and to be on stock suspension, it did pretty damn well...

I dont know whats up with the fluctuating idle. Im gonna replace the O2 sensor ( since i need to pass smog anyway ) and maybe see if that helps. if not. its either TPS, vacuum leak, or timing is slightly off.

Anyways, Does anyone have anymore videos/pictures? or are we just waiting for Eric ( shaggytrash )

I am finally back from the camping trip. We have to unpack and get everything squared away. As soon as Shaggy and I get a chance. We will be working on the editing. There is a lot of material to go though and will take some time to publish a final product. I'll post up again soon.

I would like to thank all of you for coming out to this years run. Hope I can actually wheel with you next year. LOL.

I also, personally thank all of you who helped out Shaggy Saturday night. I feel responsible for the confusion and the mishaps that took place. I was sure everything would turn out great, as this is the Yotatech family.

order up a HD leaf pack for next year! that way when you're all loaded down, you wont be negative arch!

No problem man. We pretty much cooked everything we had on sunday morning and gladly shared with Eric.

Chevy 63s are really gonna lift/flex that rear suspension. You should do a welded on u-bolt flip kit as well. Really make that rear suspension invulnerable! that way you can pack all of your stuff in there and dont have to worry about negative arch ( which you shouldn't have a problem anyway with 63s )

All of you were great, we had a fun time. I went over stuff I did not think possible. made it back home to Utah. Thanks for all your support and friendship. will be posting "Faces of the Trail Soon"

Bypasses-Sorry, no bypasses today.

Redneck fun=Alcohol, guns, and 4 wheel drives (yotas of course), and camp fires.

Thanks everyone!!

It is good to see that you had a great time. Now that you know what your stock yota can do, you will have to do more. It was great for too see you out there after driving so far to meet all of use. Kudos to you 87wheels.
