Broke steering box on my 4runner today about ~6.5mi from staging area on the Mckinney Road Entrance. Don't have another truck or a welder- need help extracting truck to staging area either by a trail fix or just a tow. Thanks

If the box is broke, get another one. Or is the frame broke, or?

Do you have pictures of the break?

I am with a group that is coming in from the McKinny end on Sunday. We have a couple of welders with us so if welding is what you need we will be there. We are planning on camping at the Springs that night so it's an easy day for us. We are leaving to Fresno Friday night. I'll PM you my cell phone number if interested.

I just called him. He said Jopes called him too. Not sure what can be done or who can help but it sounds like between you, Jopes, RockTractor, and anybody else who drives by, you are well taken care of.

Time for a winch and a tow rig ;)

as Bronchole said, the Snappers will be heading in that way Sunday morning...

give me as much details as you can. Frame broke? is it torn or cracked? do we need plate? angle iron? sizes? can you get a new steering box to bring in? is there a bracket for the box you need?... I've never worked on a Toyota so if I'm being ignorant thats cause I am.. I'd like to try to get you drivable somehow, cause thats a shitty tow on a strap with no steering.

You've got Dan's cel, and I'll PM you mine. we are driving up to Fresno tomorro evening, then to Robbs on Saturday. If early enough Saturday, I may try to get to you on Sat evening, but don't plan on me/us being there till Sunday morning. Please call me/Dan if you get out and leave me a message, I will make it a point to check my messages whenever I have service... also we'll be on CB 27 and GMRS 7-code 27. Hope we can help.

See ya on the way out Pete!.


I will be up there as well, I don't have a Toy (IFS?) box, but can weld the frame back on and I will drag you on Saturday morning.

Look for me, Blue/white Early bronco, WIDE.

I'm going up right now to see if we can get it out, i'll keep everyone posted, thanks for all the help

Im heading in with another toy on sat afternoon. But my buddy Dave has been up there since wed night. He is camped at loon, so it would be pretty easy to find him. He has everything you will need to get it out, well besides a box.

We just got back and with a little help from a tie down we were able to hold the steering box in place for enough distance to be able to tow it out. Thanks for all the help
