Impossible Race Against Bleepin Jeep & Marlin Crawler! - Method Bead Grips Fail

Рет қаралды 10,641

Somehow I found myself on a super sketchy tail called Moab Rim with off road legends ‪@DirtLifestyle‬ ‪@MarlinCrawlerMedia‬ and ‪@bleepinjeep‬. As a novice off roader who is still really new to rock crawling I was the least equipped and least experienced wheeler on the trails that day and to make it worse my #toyota #tacoma continued to present new issues I had never anticipated. If you're considering a set of Method Bead Grips for your rock crawler you should be sure to check out this video. Use Maxx10 for discount on Heretic Studios lights! :www.hereticstu...?sca_ref=32606.aw4WkGtKK9

Wow this was intense! I was considering bead grip for my 35 KM3s to shed some weight from my current beadlocks. I like to do similar rock crawling stuff. I guess I need to reconsider!

Yeah I’m a little disappointed with the bead grips after that run

Go air lockers and onboard air and leave your particular finicky e locker behind! Also I don’t think your bead grips were seated 100% I’ve heard they are difficult. Like they hold air under most circumstances but under stress they show it

@Maxx.Powell Жыл бұрын

Sounds like a plan to me. And yeah I think you’re right about the bead grips

Not having the most capable vehicle makes the success even that much sweeter. You're having to work harder than the rest of the guys and having way more fun.

Get a Jeep Maxx! I had a 2017 Tacoma and loved it. But love Jeeps too. You will be super happy with a Jeep that is on 37’s or more. Even 35’s…

Without lockers a Taco is worthless. I bypassed the factory switch for the rear and it works flawlessly. Hit me up if you’re interested no more flashing light BS.

If youre telling yourself its OPEN AND OPEN and youre on the trail and not the trailer. Keep it Maxx! Im taking my 3GT to moab again for a second time and this time with a whole new attitude with my tacoma. Have you had any electrical issues? Ive been having a slight haywire with mine only recently. (Cluster flashes, abs is off, speedo goes whack)

@Maxx.Powell Жыл бұрын

Yeah I’ve had off and on issues with the electrical system as well. I’m going to put some work into the truck this year

@Maxx.Powell I'm right there with you. I just found out my buddy fixed his tacoma abs/cruise control issues by pulling a simple tow brake fuse. I'm going to be cleaning up my truck this weekend too. Removing wires and everything! Good luck to you bud! Remember. Don't change the tundra !😁

Get me some rock assault axles from trail Gear. But don't get the springs! 3 link front and 4link the back. A jeep engine can't beat a toyota engine. Or get a jeep and put a 5.7 Tundra engine in it. Or just find a fj40
