Update on this is looks like JD Fab now makes a specific kit for the 4runner which is awesome. JD Fab Lower Control Arm Mount Kit

Can you get a picture of the racks clearance to the shark fin antenna? Can't really see how that fits with the new rack. Looks awesome though.

Good to finally see some pictures to show how it all works on the 4runner. Been fairly nonexistent which is unusual considering how popular the 4runner platform is for bolting on accessories to.

Awesome!!! Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Anyone order up one of these yet?

Glad this popped up. I'll be getting out the tube bender and making my own when I got some free time. My valance is half screwed anyways from a rock in Sand Hollow as well as the corner of the bumper. I'll get back with pics when I get to it, might be a few months since my priority welding and...

The price list shows 7500 for the toyota applications. Comparing visually the drive gear size it looks to be a little bigger than a C303. And they do hammer on them pretty hard with the 37" Treps. Maybe they make their own gears or source it off something else. Also when I refer to high speed...

Can see in this video that they still have the ABS sensors in place. Pretty cool. Жесткий off-road Toyota FJ Cruiser на колесных редукторах DV MAX. - YouTube Also if you scroll all the way to the bottom they have pictures of it being assembled. They use straight cut gears. FJ Cruiser...

Wouldn't be a Unimog gearset as they only have 2 gears which require the input to be reverse of output direction. This would have most likely a 4 gear design with 2 idler gears to get same direction input as output. Pretty cool but the problem with portal boxes is they can't handle speed and...

Looking forward to seeing how everything works out. I want to fit 35s without cutting the tub or anything plus fix caster. I'm definitely not shy of fab mods and custom. Just would like to keep it to a minimum and maintain road driving.

Looking forward to seeing the results and the build. I'm going to push the lower arms forward with the JD Fab kit and stick some 35s in without messing with body mounts and pinch welds. Good thing you didn't order the Tacobox if you weren't aware of how long Marlin takes you'd be getting...

If you do a 4 speed case you'll get to have a close to stock low range, a low range closer to what you had in your JK with the 3.8:1 and then super low as opposed to a close to stock and then a super low of twice what you had in the JK. That's a big span between selection. Cost is the same for...

I don't see why it wouldn't. They have the same front frame section. The only tricky bit will be if you have KDSS like me. But I'm going to push that all forward as well equal to what I move the lower bit forward. They have a upper control arm to go with the lower pivot kit as well to really...

If you look at your options I'd definitely if it were me and spending the money I'd get the 1.0:1 / 2.72:1 / 3.80:1 / 10.34:1 then you actually get the benefits of a 4 speed case. A regular low range, a good lower low range and a good super low range the Marlin Tacobox gets a final low low of...

Anyone done this yet or plan on it? I think I'll take a stab at it next year for 35" tires on my 4Runner. Simple enough to do and can use stock lower control arms. Just cut off your lower control arm mounts and weld these in, allows for up to an inch movement forward. Here is a bit of an...
