The Gallagher Lake Trail was built originally for a mining claim. The area wasn't placed into the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area because of the old mining claim. I've hiked and backpacked in the area from the Teanaway River side. Not being an official Forest Service Road, I doubt if this trail ever receives any maintenance. Only for 4x4's for sure! It's hard enough to walk on, a real ankle twister.

You don’t need your side mirrors to see traffic behind you. If they allow it, tilt them down and in so you can see where you are placing those rear tires. Could literally be a life saver!

I was going to say the same thing. He mentioned getting an older GC in the video and it made me want to see a comparison. For me, if I was shopping for a new vehicle it would be between the LC and the GC. Price and features they’re very similar. The LC is more traditional in capability but the GC offers better on-road manners and efficiency while still being very capable.

As someone who has both a lifted HE LC 200 on Kings and Lexus GX on Fox DSCs they are NOT harder to lift than non-KDSS unless you are planning on lifting into non-functional territory. Performance-wise lifting 1.5-2” is the max for Toyota IFS, anything greater will ruin your downtravel. If you are planning on adding longer control arms and a long travel kit then avoid KDSS eKDSS models.

Great video, Ryan. And nice rig. At 18:00 you suggested always locking the center diff if available. In my 80 Series Land Cruiser, I keep the center diff unlocked on most trails until needed. With it locked, tight turns bind up the drivetrain and put unnecessary stress on the rig. It may be different on your new Cruiser, I don't know. It might be worth experimenting with it off and on. Keep the great content coming! Thank you.
