Drybone Canyon Through from the Top

[Beardilocks]

This through hike has been on my list for years ... one day .... sigh.

You're going to love your FJ80 when it's done – solid axle FTW. I miss my FJ62, though I'm perfectly content with my (untested) 1st Gen Taco. Too many hard miles on me to sleep in the back of a Landcruiser or 4Runner these days.

For Toyota LBJs I personally wouldn't use anything but OEM. But, anything and everything can and will fail. Eventually.

Honestly, it was not a super hard hike.  I'd say it was easier than the Aguereberry to Furnace hike.  That or the vehicle failure wiped the pain from my memory.  

I already love my 80 even with only about ~1000mi on the shakedown after rebuild.  I swapped in a 1HDT diesel and 5spd manual.  New ... well mostly everything.  Lol.  Added a pop-top and troopy style build out.  Sleeping in the back of this is a LOT more comfortable than my 1st Gen with a bed topper on it.  And I did that for over 3yrs.
