OK I will donate my 88 runner for the project anyone want to send parts we can make this a YOTATECH project and run it that way

 

How about when it breaks that rock at 0:59? Awesome!

 

Yea I thought that was cool too

 

seems like cheating...

 

seems like alot of USELESS weight, and things to go wrong.

 

it would hold complete baller status though.

 

Totally. In the demonstration, more droop and lockers would have gotten him off. It'd be fun at traffic lights though

 

haha. the beginning reminds me of some cheesy cartoon dance.
The rest was pretty interesting. Its cool that they used the hydrolics for something other than bouncing the vehicle down the street and for show.

 

Yeah haha no lockers.

 

x2...

 

Im sure he has lockers, but he had to put that thing in front wheel drive/open to make the truck incapable enough to justify the hyraulics.

 

All the above is true.. but i would mind destroying all that offroad though..lol

 

ok is it me or is that thing sound like a DIESEL motor... Preaty sure it is...... ill trade all my work for that thing

 

toyota made a diesel?

 

Toyota made lots of diesels. Very few of them made it to the U.S.

This reminds me of the AirRock suspension for Jeeps that came out a few years back. Lots of gadgets for the gadget-boys to play with and lots of things to go wrong. Most of the guys who had them had little to no clue how to drive off-road and spent their time stuck, or attempting relatively easy obstacles, and playing with their AirRock.

Here's my leaf-sprung 4Runner going over a rock just as big as the one in the video. I didn't have to play with any hydraulics to get off of the rock either.

 

where is this pic at? Looks like a sweet area..

 

Johnson Valley "the Hammers". It's the "legendary" mail box at the top of Sledge Hammer (IIRC)

 

Exactly right.

If you want to see more of the trail, here's my Photobucket album: http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y22.../Sledgehammer/

 

Still got to admit that thing is very impressive. Man love the runner and the beer delivery in the mail box... NICE
