    I have that issue on my 2nd Gen taco when the truck is at a angle I get oil into the pcv valve and what helps is a oil catch can will catch most of it and is able to give you more time to get through the obstacle once it starts to fill up, that’s why I recommend a catch can to most people

    I've never Rock Crawled, but I have ran a Log Skidder. Theres nothing more butt puckering when your wheel comes off the ground, and you start tilting. Especially on the side of a mountain

    😂hmmmm seen lots of long travel tacomas scoot rite up chicken rock. Just another fine example of portals don't do shit if you don't have travel. Get that glorified mall crawler back to the flat lands and shoot your overland vids.

      @tacomabeast I have more respect for people wheeling stock tacomas or any rig for that matter than I do for dinks like yourself and your God awful company. Portals are nothing but a sales pitch to new off roaders and it clearly shows in this video. You were outwheeled by 10k long travel kit vs your 20k portal abortion. Yes if you pair portals with long travel than you'll have something. But at a 30k price tag you could do full blown d60's with rear stear and have enough left to drive said vehicle to your business and take your wife out to dinner. Portals are a fad and a signal of deep pockets, they didn't work for the sxs market and the same will happen in the truck market.

      You have clearly not watched our videos on portals… we have said it before and will say it again: it’s not for everyone, and it’s a new mod we want to showcase. You can go wheeling in a stock Tacoma if you want to, we’ve never said you need all the stuff we have to go wheeling. You can keep making assumptions about us based on one video if you’d like but I would recommend watching the rest of our content. And maybe don’t get so triggered over other people having stuff that you don’t like? Live and let live brother 🤙

      IMO Marlin Crawler RCLT is a better upgrade than portals. RCLT in the front and portals in the rear is a winning combo.

    • @coffeetruckco
      @coffeetruckco 7 місяців тому +5

      I agree. Without a long travel setup, it just raises the center of gravity way too much. He tips way more than the other trucks and causing situations where he is sucking oil. Like portals in this situation has actually decreased his wheeling ability here.

    Maybe instead of throwing more money on the truck, take some of it off. With a lighter ride you would walk right up those. You stayed humble, listened to your spotters and made some serious obstacles. All those guys probably been there before and next time with less weight you'll make it look easy too.
