Pair of Old Man Emu Rear coil springs Model OME 889x Gives 2.5"-3" rear lift and a weight rating of +220lbs over stock spring weight. There were on my 18 4Runner about a month, and I had to go up to heavier coils due to my aftermarket bumper/spare carrier. I believe these work all the way...

If anyone is in LA and wants a set, I have a brand new set in the box for $60. i was going to use them, but bought SCS wheels instead which have the spacing already done in the offset. DM me. $60, can't go wrong. EDIT< SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!

Per Ben, you can easily dial preload 2/3rds into the total thread length without I’ll effect. Showing 1-2” threads isn’t much when you see how long the threads actually are.. Interested to hear how it rides once you finish the work. When I got rid of the 440lb rears, it was perfect both in...

i haven't tried that. do you mean the rear tailgate window or rear passenger? rear passenger down about 8" def helps wind coming from driver side front window, but i'm not sure i've messed with lowering windows or tailgate window in conjunction with sunroof wind. i'll try it.

Hi Jimmy. Here is the story as I know it. Chris Hefty had an agreement with SSO to make the aluminum low-pro fronts (just like the SSO Steel fronts). SSO made the steel versions, and both vendors were selling both versions. Hefty is an alu specialist as I understand it. The alu low pro was...

Hi, thanks for the comments on the 4runner build. yeah i also ordered through filthy motorsports and thought I also got the wrong front springs. Mine are 550, which is what Ben recommended, then I def had to dial in some preload to get the ride height correct. He strongly cautioned against...

my understanding is that you can't user the sunroof rear pop up feature because it will likelly hit the cross bars. that said, you can completely adjust crossbar location, so it's ultimately about where and how you set up your loads and accessories. I will never mount a roof top tent, so I...

i notced that when the sunroof is open, i'm getting a bit more wind on my hair at speeds below 40mph. when going faster, there is no wind entering the cabin and there is no noise at all when the rack is loaded or unloaded. completely quite, and I don't notice a difference. at all, which was a...

I’m definitely not a minimalist and didn’t say that in the video, but I did say I come from an ultralight backpacking and cycling background, so I’m conscious of how incremental weight adds up. That rear bumper will be close to 250, so not near 300lb, but definitely heavy. If they made an...

You can see it a bit here

i'm not much of a youtuber or videographer to say the least, but occasionally post garage updates. the addition of an SUV for camping/overlanding has been a super fun project the past few months and a welcome addition to the stable. truck is about 4-5 months old, has 4K miles and is getting...

Why is SafeJack not more popular?
