Reviewer's Notebook: CALMINI's Steering Stabilizer
Who needs a steering stabilizer? So you forked over the bucks for new, big rubber, you got them mounted? Now you're ready to rock, right?
Reviewer's Notebook: Marfield Ultimate Birfield Joint
In 79-85 Toyota mini-trucks, 84-85 4-Runners, and 69-89 Land Cruisers, the well-known weakest link in the front drivetrain is the Birfield joint inside the enclosed knuckle.
Reviewer's Notebook: Autospecialty Power Stop Rotors & Metal Master Pads
The quest for ever-increasing off-road prowess leads inevitably to modifications and accessories. Larger tires dramatically lengthen stopping distance; recent tests showed a 10' increase in braking distance for every inch increased in tire diameter.
Marlin Says That the LC Swap on Mini Truck Hub Does Not Change Track Width Since the Rotor Is Spaced Toward the Inside of the Hub
I've heard about a relatively bolt-on parts bin exercise that allows widening the track of a Toyota live-axle truck by about three inches. It sounded pretty easy, but I wanted to be sure, myself.

Reviewer's Notebook: Pull-Pal Anchor Model RW9000
As a rock climber, I understand the importance of good anchors. If you climb a route, you can top-rope with a solid anchor point at the cliff's top, lead-climb and find suitable anchor points as you climb, or free solo and be so confident that you do not need a rope or anchors.
Reviewer's Notebook: PIAA Lighting System (Part II)
PIAA is well known for their off-road lighting, but many off-road lights can not be legally (or safely) used on-road. Ever stare into a pair of 120-watt lamps coming at you on the trail?
Reviewer's Notebook: PIAA 520 Ion Crystal Driving Lamps
The war cry of the Tsunami Tribe of central Bulonga? French for "nice lights"? An acronym standing for "Pretty Incredible And Awesome"?
Reviewer's Notebook: Inside Armor: Seat Covers and Mats
Keeping a clean interior in the midst of a nasty trail exterior is difficult. Sand, slush, mud, and muck all wreak havoc on fabrics and carpet.
Reviewer's Notebook: PIAA Lighting System (Part I)
Too often, sunset requires this depressing decision. Daylight fades and we're forced to retreat as trail obstacles get uglier in the worsening light, especially during the winter months.
Reviewer's Notebook: Forrest Tool's MAX AX
Most 4x4s are crammed with tools, toolboxes, recovery gear, and spares. Add in a family's worth of camping gear, a weekend's worth of food, and there's no space left for the driver, let alone passengers!
Reviewer's Notebook: Cabelas Roof Rack Carrier
n recent years, the availability of roof racks has exploded. Safari type racks, sport system racks, and a variety of other versions of this simple idea cropped up.
Reviewer's Notebook: Ramsey Platinum 9000
Ramsey has been a predominant name in off-roading since the early 1940s. Their products grace the bumpers of countless four-wheel drive vehicles, and their owners testify to the dependability of Ramsey products, including locking hubs, mounting systems, and winches.
No Drill, No Frill Tow Hooks
I found myself panicked: Just a week away from my first real trail ride with the Eastern 4-Wheelers and I had no tow hooks. I could only imagine getting stuck in a big mud hole and having to submerge myself to get a strap around the axle.
