If you're not planning on installing a rear steel bumper with tire carrier and/or roof rack with tent then you should, IMO, go with medium springs. I did go with HD front and back on mine but I do carry a lot including full camping build-out in the trunk plus steel bumper with swing outs for...

Really nice build you've got there! Thank you for the feedback - drawer system is a must for me in this case as I'll be able to stuff all my equipment in there - rear of the rig is not gonna get much use as there are just two of us that do get on the road in this thing. Still waiting for my...

that's more like it. I will update all about the outcome.

that might not be an option for me though - general idea for a rooftop tent is to avoid all sorts of creatures that might otherwise be able to crawl in - that's not me - just trying to keep my other half happy...

There are plans to hit the trails not much in the off-road fashion but more in the way of an exploratory type of thing. We just don't wanna go into a motel every night and rooftop has been chosen, as opposed to regular, is that my wife is sort of scared of any kinds of creatures that can visit...

IMO Victory would be the best choice. If I knew that they have the Blitz I would of picked it before investing in ARB. I am running full OME suspension front and back (HD) but still, would be nice to have low profile, lighter version so I wouldn't have to go with HD suspension.

I'm just interested in seeing how this would work with a rooftop tent - looking currently for ideas before I make the purchase... Do have Prinsu full length roof rack.

Went with 265/70/17 Pirelli Scorpion AT Plus - great tire IMO and no rubbing at all - riding on TRD rims. I was considering other brands but figured this was the best set-up for street, highway and occasional terrain - so far these tires proved to be pretty good on wet surfaces, snow and in a...

Trying to figure out the best set-up for my build - have a full size Prinsu rack and I'm looking for ideas regarding rooftop tents, Show me what sort of set-up you've got - trying to get ideas here - looking to install a tent and side canopy as well. Tent doesn't have to be large - there are two...

I'll PM

If these are still available I'll take'em! Got a 4th gen in the works.

and I'm undecided myself - I was also looking at Bilstein but OME looks better to me now - will be running ARB front bumper with winch and rear bumper with carrier and extras... and now main question is Medium or Heavy?

I could come up with a list here but will just say that through the years I have owned a few Explorers, built at least three of them to be trail capable and that at this time I'm driving a 2013 F-150 - decided to buy a 4Runner cause I needed something dependable - something I can take off the...
