***The Clapped Out 4Runner CRUSHES the Rubicon!!***

[@Foodmeow]

Sick rims! Who make those?

[@markschwegler1100]

If your ever on your way up to the con or on your way back down, I manage the Napa auto parts in pollock pines...last parts store on the way to the trail. Stop on by.

[@tonyrebel631]

Sweat ride,never underestimate what these runner can do,

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Awesome, good to know!

[@FullSendX]

Were you on stock gearing with 37s?

[@JustinThigpin-q5s]

What bumper and winch do you have on that puppy.

[@clutchcouple9868]

Thank you for trash clean up let’s keep these parks open for our kids to enjoy as we have!!!

[@maneeoocho350]

Is the 3rd gen still running?

[@a_tacolypse]

Good job brother! Thanks for picking up the left behind trash.

[@stevendouglas6593]

That dog walked the Rubicon Trail. That’s a feat in itself.

[@MechanicalAdventures]

When gets to camp he still wants to play fetch! Haha

[@eriknash8783]

@@MechanicalAdventures Yup, I have 2 cattle dogs and the energy level can sometimes be maddening

[@djrodriguez6582]

Maybe unpopular opinion but I'd love to hear some engine, tire, and rock noises while crawling some obstacles instead of music

[@poweredbyrice5708]

Music ruins so many great videos

[@ClassyTacos]

Man that was awesome. I need some fire pit therapy soon.

[@e954rr2]

Love the dog

[@MechanicalAdventures]

❤️

[@Basshead40]

Very nice! I have a 2000. Have had it 22 years. Can't get better than the 3rd gen 4runner!

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Awesome!

[@CAL9919A]

I also drive a 1998 Toyota 4runner, abt to put it on 35s at 17 hoping to get her all fixed up by senior year

[@frederickmcknight2123]

4Runners are my favorite vehicles

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Nice! Me too 🤘🏼

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Love it!

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Thanks!

[@eriknash8783]

good call on skipping the front locker, especially with 37's. That would be a recipe for grenading front CV axles. Had a 95 4cyl 4x4 pickup (hilux) with 3" lift and 33's with front and rear lockers and I destroyed so many out CV joints when rock crawling. Did the Rubicon a few times with it.

[@Rhouzv]

My tundra was triple locked on 5.29s and with 37s I was blowing steering racks every few months after I added my front locker. Bought a 3rd gen runner to build and I’ll probably go locked rear and open front with a Marlin crawl box in this runner

[@zachroether5636]

E locker or no?

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Yessir

[@bajamedic]

I’m local and itching to get up there and see what this winter did to the trail.

[@AOW162435]

Fantastic video!

[@awesomeasyou]

Awesome. Hard to beat out in the rigs with the boys

[@MCgrease08]

The rig is sick, but the video quality and production is a close second. Really digging the channel.

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Thanks my man!

[@Gr8gazoo1]

[@Undersiegeisfunny]

This video is awesome . Are you doing all that on a stock driveshaft ?

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Yessir! All stock drivetrain with 310,000 miles on it as well as stock CV axles and stock ball joints ☺️

[@sachmong85]

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Watch all my videos and you will see 👍

[@davidrucci]

Sooo happy I stumbled upon this channel. 🙏🤙 Btw, what gear ratio did you upgrade to?

[@MechanicalAdventures]

5.29s

[@dmitriyblakonov6602]

What tire size are these? 40s?

[@MechanicalAdventures]

37s

[@Jimmhout]

Do you not run a spare? Great job on the build glad to see it killing it

[@MechanicalAdventures]

No spare, I have a decent amount to tire repair stuff and a spare is so heavy

[@dwaynemartin5174]

Shows you how easy Rubicon really is when you hit Fordyce I'll be impressed

[@MechanicalAdventures]

Don’t tempt me…
