HOLY SH1T
Can’t imagine the wife was thrilled with that one Lol.
I’ve wrinkled up my fair share of vehicles so I know that gut wrenching feeling all to well. I had a close call on a greasy off camber trail and almost slapped the rear quarter into a tree. The pucker was real.
Baller move though to just fix it, and head back out there though. Hat tip.

Yeah, I got away with ignoring some smaller stuff without fixing it, but I couldn't ignore that. More detail back on page 1 of this thread. But yeah, on to the next one!

I'm a tall one. 6'7".
I do make the 4runner look small.

Short video from a rutted spot on Mosquito Pass. Looking at the video, it doesn't look all that difficult. I remember doing this stretch prior to lifting the truck, and I was scraping all over the place.

New tires. My KO2s had 45K on them, and I had been dealing with a leak for quite a while. It was time for some new ones. I came across a deal through a family member on some (already) cheap MTs, which were not really what I was looking for. I was planning on an AT in 285/75/17 before these came up. Decided to try them out, because hey, they're likely better than what I had. And I got them bought and installed for $100. If I hate them, I haven't really lost anything.
They're noisy at 55+ MPH, but not unbearable. I'll see how they do in the snow, that might be a deal breaker.
No rub, but I haven't stuffed them yet.
Ironman MT 285/70/17. Up from 275/70/17.

Thanks! We'll see how long I keep them for. Hoping to be pleasantly surprised.
Keep me posted on that roof rack! Apparently I'm a bargain hunter when it comes to mods.

I'll e-mail you more about the time frame and what I'll be selling.
I'm still looking forward to seeing some 285/75's on the rig!
