October 6-9 Arkansas hunt for the toothbrush inventor

That's Mr Asshole to you
You need one of those shows on Velocity to show up at your house with a van of people to fix everything for you. They might even be able to help start your trailer build.
 

Taco Loco

Tired and Lazy, married to ‘The Laundry Fairy’
I have plenty of inspirational builds to go from... ultimately the Shittybilt trailer is, seriously, what I was planning to build. Its 85% of what I had designed. Now there is a couple things I would change and I believe I can for little effort. That being said I just don't have time to get one built as much as I try. Shit fixing the Taco has been longer than I like.

Pretty sure it's all those fancy gadgets is why you need to carry a trailer to haul more gadgets that don't fit on the truck.

Enough for 3 people. Plus it stays packed and makes going easier.

Bring it. Nothing too hard from our last routes. Only thing would be if we got into a right camping spot and had to back out or the road I went down that went no where and required a 6 point turn to get back out.
More like 12 point turn for me

Well should it arrive its coming. Plan is to put a small winch out the back to allow me to reposition it on trails.

Went exploring today so here's some pics to get y'all pumped for the trip. It's more of a park where people trailer their 4wheelers and side-by-sides to. It was a freakin muddy mess and I broke my radiator fan, but still a good way to blow off steam only an hour outside of Fayetteville. Already got my fan pulled and hoping I can get a new one in before class tomorrow.IMG_1374.JPG IMG_1375.JPG IMG_1376.JPG IMG_1377.JPG IMG_1379.JPG IMG_1381.JPG IMG_1386.JPG

Nice teaser pics. I am 90% sure I have the green light for a snorkel for my birthday in July. Because it is a necessary piece of equipment for this trip for low vehicles like my 4R.

How did you break your fan?

I wouldn't say it's necessary. Even though I have one, I still try to avoid water higher than the stock air intake at all costs. I have it as a safety if I screw up and end up in a hole. In a group setting, you can only cross water that's low enough for the guy with the lowest intake....so unless everyone has a snorkel, I wouldn't call it necessary.
I'm gonna guess water crossing
That's my only guess, although I never went through water that was taller than maybe halfway up my tires. I don't think there's an easy enough way for a stick to get in there and hit it. Plus, I didn't find any stick fragments in the engine bay.

Called all over town and no one has a fan in stock, so I had to order one with Toyota and it should arrive tomorrow

Do me a favor; don't say that around my sammich maker. She knows I would like one and this is an "easy" way to justify it.

LOL.. should I tell her you need aftermarket bumpers and a winch as well?

I already have her sold on that list. She actually prefers the Schrockworks bumpers over CBI. Also she is the one wanting the truck fridge before we do a lot of summer camping too.
