Who gets pissed that you didn’t take time out of you trip to not get us long videos of your trip? I really appreciate what you do and what you have taught your viewers. Keep on keepin on! 🇺🇸

Hey nate, if you do a fj cruiser transfercase swap and hardwire the front actuator you can slam it in 4 wheel drive 'manually'. The conversion is bolt on. Which would solve your abs issue and avoid being stuck in 2wd

So helpful for those of us who are looking for information on new products but want a real world, well tested, honest review. So many people I see get a new product (Sponsored or purchased) and give a final review after one quick use with no negative feedback, not helpful to me. There are pro's & con's to any product depending on the use and you can't know them all until you have tried them in different situations. Thanks for all the great content, I really enjoy your fabrication videos. Looking forward to more content of the Tacoma.

When using a resistor to mimic the stock locker, start with a larger value to minimize the current and step down as needed to get the light to turn off. You can likely drive a relay from the connector to run the air solenoid and trigger the locker light on the dash also.

You will get decades of performance out of you rig with very few mechanical issues.

Thanks for the update Nate! Good on you for giving yourself some downtime with camera work. People that haven't done this type of camera work don't realize what goes into it. If you can't take the time to simply enjoy your truck with friends, and not work about working the camera all the time, it will slowly (or quickly) degrease the quality of your passion. Side note: You really don't need to apologize so much (or at all) in your videos. I know you do your best to make high quality videos, but this is not some hollywood movie you are making, where you have a team of people working with you and work in a controlled environment. If people can't see and appreciate how much you put into your videos and feel the need to complain about it, then I genuinely feel bad for those people.
