“Do something cool”
Having fun with anything on 4 wheels we can get ahold of. We spend as much time at Offroad parks like the Badlands Offroad and Silver Lake Sand dunes as we can. We also like to do trips on the Michigan trail systems. Often you can find us running RC cars when the chance arises.

Video from our fall 2024 trip to the Badlands Offroad Park. It was the sasquatch run so it was very busy. We were able to find some whoops to blitz but spent most of our time stuck in mud holes.

Video from closing weekend at Silver Lake sand dunes. There was a huge turnout for the trunk or treat and how better to finish a day than with trucks jumping. We gave away all my hotwheels so I guess its time to stock up on more.

Hope you were listening to some Saxsquatch during the run! That guy can really jam. Looks fun!
Always a great time at Badlands! The weather was perfect!!!!!
Thanks for your post. Looking forward to seeing the build.
Hello! Tell me, please, what gearbox is installed on the buggy?
It had a vw bus 002 now it wil have a built vw 094
@@4wheeltrips Thank you!
Upper control arms and 3.0 shocks does not make this truck a mid travel truck. You added no additional travel to truck,. It has stock lower control arms lol.
@@daleyfamily2179 actually uniball upper control arms allow more travel than a stock balljoint and when paired with a longer stroke shock allows for more travel making it what most refer to as mid travel. The lower control arm is usually not the limiting factor to travel.
These engines run forever 4.0L Jeep engines rule
Bet it still runs.
What are you running for front spring rates? I have a 6 inch over beam with 4 inch longer arms to put on this winter and i need to order coilovers and springs. I just kind of winged it on my rear setup bit i think theyre still a little too heavy. I was getting pretty bad bucking in the big whoops out there this past weekend.
I am 150 over 200 up front. I have not done much research to know about the rear yet but what is the shock valving in your rear? Did it take much preload on the spring to accomplish your desired ride height?
@4wheeltrips I started with 400 over 450 then I stepped down to 350 over 400 and had the rebound revalved and it helped but Its still not as good as I'd like. I have basically 0 preload on the spring just enough to hold it in place and It sags probably 4 inches or so at ride height. So I'm thinking maybe I'll go to 300 over 350 and then I can put a little preload in if I need to for ride height if I need to. Part of it might be the only having like 6 inches of front travel making things weird too its hard to say until I have it all done next year
She did amazing! We had a great time
Looks like fun and Good Times! Nice build!!
Thanks it is a blast and coming along
What front bumper is this?
It is an allpro bumper that has been modified.
Very nice Tacoma❤
Hows you manage to get there in the dark? 😂
The person hauling it up got held up. Couldnt let darkness keep us from testing it.
And she survived!
finally, the bug is back
We have the opposite builds going on i have my whole rear suspension done but my front is still stock ball joint and you have front suspension and stock rear lol
@@TheSupersample the back probably needs it more but I plan to build the whole car so figured it made more sense to start up front
@@4wheeltrips I did the swing axle to irs conversion, 2x3 arms, coilovers, bus trans swap, and ecotec all at the same time it came back to the dune the next year a totally different baja lol the first couple years I took it to the dunes I never even made it over test with the vw motor.
@@TheSupersample That was probably the right place to start. I hope to keep making steps to get a to 5x5 arms with coilovers and bypass out back and a motor swap soon.
Nice!
Thanks
Always loved me a bug 🤙
Great video brother 👍
@@frankfilippone9679 thanks man
@4wheeltrips I was cracking up watching the little jeep trying to navigate the wood pile 🤣 Getting ready to move to a new house, then putting tons in the taco 🌮 Picked up a 2003 F350 V10 4x4 with 27,000 miles from my friends school he's a auto shop teacher at , low miles and high rust! Bad! But the axles are in great shape, they'll be a video
@@frankfilippone9679 it sucks that we have to deal with rust
@4wheeltrips Horrible! I'm on a island, so it's a major problem here, and it's funny, I'm watching Modern Marvel's Corrosion and Decomposition, and they were just at the Michigan proving grounds testing Corrosion, I'd much rather live in the mid west then here in hell! Long Island is hell on vehicles, I've seen cars and trucks missing whole sections of frame and body, this place eats them alive!
where can I get these headlights you got on that make a mono piece? @4wheeltrips
@@louiezapata5602 they are spyder brand but you can get a few different options on ebay
What leaf spring is on the red truck?
@@damnitdang deaver e30
What size tubes you use for frame ?
main tubes are 1 3/4 120 wall and secondary are 1.5
I need more rock warriors. Less of those turd pros.🤪
This has nothing to do with baja bugs
Haha ya the other toys get jealous and need some time.
That RAV4 was pretty beefy! Any NEW Land Cruisers in attendance?
No i did not see any. It would be cool to see one offroad.
Dude in the blue hoodie sounds like drunken doofy. 😂
I just rebuilt a front end that was built like that. The tube that your reservoir is sitting on can’t take the load and eventually end up tearing . The top tube needs to be one piece to the beam. FWI
I could have done that in my stock 90’s rav 4
I personally know the guy with the gray Toyota. Prerunner with the orange bead lock rims
Good to see the Carolina Squat is finally gone!!
Going this year
Which leaf would you take off one of the smaller ones ?
i would take out the 3rd one from the bottom.
@@4wheeltrips how would this affect the way it can handle weight and how would it perform off road
@@AROD. It should be a minimally effect on weight and make it slightly softer. This should make it slightly easier for the suspension to travel.
I think I saw that last prerunner for sale on marketplace Edit: it’s still for sale
Looking good man. She was all smiles.
Where are you located?
I am in Michigan.
Sweet looking Baja. You have the right idea. Take time to enjoy it and from there your ideas for upgrades may change. Make it a running project so you don’t let it sit and lose interest.
Thanks. Seen it to many times where interest is lost or you change everything and struggle to get it dialed in.
@@4wheeltrips many people dive in with the best of intentions but then get overwhelmed and can’t see the end goal anymore. We’re behind you, you got this.
Happy to see yall this thing justice
Speaking from experience with my wife….. get her a subscription to the book club and go offroad with the guys. She is obviously uncomfortable with the car and seems to be trying hard to be willing for you. All the little complaints and stuff are red flags. Save money and your marriage… sit down and have a real honest discussion about what she really thinks about the whole hobby and what her options are. Some women are made to do this kind of stuff. Some women are not. Some women want to make their husbands happy and make an attempt to fake it and sacrifice their own happiness. They just want to be close to their husbands. Those situations are short lived and very expensive with no return on the investment. Bud, your wife is no tomboy and I guess would be happier hanging with the girls or grandkids and a glass of wine or lemonade. I hope you guys have a long wonderful marriage without regrets!!!! Amen
This is going to be her beach cruiser at home and at the dunes. She wont offroad with the boys. She is just not sure about driving it before we do the ecotec swap. She doesnt love the temperamental vw motor.
looks like fun guys!
because no more boring cars lol
Man I want that setup! Such a clean build!
Did you do anything to the lower ball joint or is that stock in this vid?
It is a stock lower. I have just always made sure to use grade 10.9 bolts with red loctitie. The LT kit on my truck currently also uses a stock lower. Never had an issue.
What suspension did you have on this??
Suspension: Front: Camburg Unibal UCA Fox 2.5 Coilover with RR Fox 2.0 RR with compression Clickers Total Chaos secondary shock hoop Rear: Deaver J59 with 12" Total Chaos Shackle over the frame Fox 16" travel 2.5 triple Bypass Fox 2.0 bumps
New sub here. Will be following this bug. Check out my build too!
Heyy, i saw your post on the FB group and quickly came to take a look, congrats on your new adquisition and you got a new subscriber here!
Cool drone shots!
Great drone shots!!
The jumping is pretty cool!
man that white ram with red wheels sure is sharp! i vote for it in the next stock truck challenge 😂
When you going up with us to run it against Andys Tundra?
You gonna be up for Memorial Day weekend?
