Has anyone here removed their 3rd row seating? I'm looking into doing this and replacing it with a base plate system. I don't want to spend a fortune on Goose Gear, and it looks like Sherpa's system is not on their site anymore. I'd just like to see some pictures if anyone has done it and any advice for making a DIY base plate for the cargo.

I would like to see it from about knee high?

As requested. I need to figure out how to attach the fender liner to the plastic bumper up higher so I can cut the black plastic off the bottom in front of the tires but I haven't had time to do that or to install the winch yet. The steel bumper is only primed right now so I can take more pictures when it's comes off for base and top coat

i removed and sold my third row then built by own base plate and drawers.

I have posted some photos here before.

The base can work out really well. i used Baltic birch plywood. I had a sub base where fasteners would attached to the frame (via the existing threaded holes) and then a top piece that ended up being the bottom frame of my drawers.

In that picture it was just 2.5/1.5 spacer lift kit and spidertrax wheel spacers. Currently my setup is in my signature though!

First thing i did when i got my 4runner was rip those seats out and the back section flooring removes as well, you gain a whole bunch of space. I put some carpet down and the liner back down, kept everything in case I have to put it back together. I built a platform and sleep on that with the two remaining seats folded down.

Hi Everyone!

coming from a 2018 Limited to a 2021 Limited Nightshade here. I'm looking for input on a subject that always comes up: wheels and tires. Please hear me out!

My use case:
My vehicle splits time between salt lake city, utah, and northwestern wisconsin. Seeing winter and summer in either location, it regularly sees dirt, sand, snow and pavement. out of the box, its already plenty capable for my needs.

Because its being driven across the country somewhat regularly, Im most interested in ways to improve MPG. If possible, id like to look at much lighter 17s and tires that could help improve gas mileage without sacrificing much in terms of off-road capability. Id also like it to look nice. Is this possible? Does anyone have any experience swapping out to 17s with the goal of improving MPG? Our stock wheels and tires are HEAVY. Would love to hear about any experiences you may have. thank you for your input.

This may surprise you and I may take some teasing for saying so, but it may be worth considering buying someone’s stock 20” rims and a set of new Geolander G96b tires... They ride great on the highway and I’ve never had a single issue whether driving through deep snow and blizzards up to VT for fresh power or on sandy beaches for fishing. I’m not rock crawling but I do plenty of everything else, including plenty of highway speed+ driving

ETA I believe they also weigh less and could give better mpg’s over tires with more rubber

Hey man, thanks for the reply. This is pretty much what comes on the vehicle stock, correct? I’m currently running the stock wheels and tires. I can get about 20-21 MPG on the highway. It sounds likes that’s pretty good for these old beauties, but I’d love to find reasonable and fashionable ways to squeeze even more out of it. Since I wouldnt be adding a lift, i was thinking that dropping down to much lighter 17s, with maybe the same yoko in a 17 would probably net me some great MPG gains. Might also look like hell. *shrugs*

I wish I would have found this thread/forum sooner! So many questions and answers through experience! HAHA!
I would like to share my build of my 2016 Limited. But so far, to the person asking questions about wheels and tires...
We went with 17" Ultra wheels and 275/65 tires. We decided to go with ATX grabber series because we live in the PNW and it gets a bit messy out there. However for regular driving I think a good all season instead of an all terrain would be better.

P.S. I've never been on a forum before so I don't know how to properly respond to anyone. LOL!

Also...what's a good photo hosting site to use to share (link) photos?

Welcome to the Forum and since I daily drive mine and in one day we could have all four season. I love having an all season tire. I have the BFG KO2 All Terrains on mine. I had the Mud version which absolutely sucked in the snow and ice. I can't tell you how many intersections I slid through when it was just snow. I hated them so much I that I finally went out and bought the all season version. I also never realized how loud they were till they were gone.

Sounds like a good plan and similar to what I want to do. Have you given any thought to a front bumper? I've only seen the ShrockWorks one and I'm starting to wonder if anyone will make a bumper that doesn't require ditching the radar system.
