    Pro wheels and wheel spacers

    I bought a used set for $125. After lifting my truck with Bilstein 5100 I didn't rub. After I added spacers I started rubbing. I have BFG 265 After a little trimming I'm no longer rub at full turn. Perhaps with 275's or 285's I will need to trim away some more plastic. I would also suggest to...

    Bump 5100 up a notch or add a spacer?

    I wouldn’t spend the money adding a spacer. Bump up one notch.

    Just bought a used 4 runner, how did I do?

    Just upgraded from a Highlander. You made a good choice. As many times as I have taken ours off-road, 4wd was a luxury not necessary. We picked up a 2017 4wd for $28k. It was Toyota Certified from a dealer with 100k warranty. It doesn’t have leather or 3rd row (which my wife would’ve loved)...

    2019 6th Gen 4runner

    Be careful asking for a turbo diesel. My new Chevy Colorado 2.8L sucks driving around town. Awesome that it can tow 7700lbs. But not really practical for me. The power and feel of a NA engine in comparison is why Toyota keeps making them.

    Roof rack/basket

    I 100% agree. Spend the money on a 3/4 or full rack and use it!

    Thanks - I wonder if he actually used the right tool how many guys would be more inclined to drill away. Still enjoy his videos and l like how he doesn't edit that stuff out.

    Hey guys! Just picked up a 2017 SR5 a few weeks ago and finished a few early mods to get the build started. Really trying to figure out suspension options. From the dealer... First trail with new wheels and tint... Prepping the roof for the Frontrunner Slimline II Rack... No turning...

    Roof rack/basket

    Your gear volume shows the value of needing as much rack space as possible. If OP is just looking for a basket (could potentially spend $300-500 on setting one up) I would think the best value would be to put that $300-500 towards a larger rack that will be well utilized.
