    Well that's not level...

    Not sure you’re too far off of being practical. Though a pic might help me realize what your measurements look like. You want it sitting level at your loaded “weekend weight” so you don’t look like the asshat squatting like those Texas rigs :p I know I purposely did a 99talls in front (lowest...

    Full mattress in 3rd gen??

    +1 on no drawers, but I still made a pull out for one side and actually use a trays in the other,way in there, to hold smaller items like straps, tool roll etc that I can pull out and carry around quick. You’re going to want something like that If you put anything down there that can move to the...

    Full mattress in 3rd gen??

    yep, build a simple box that ends up the height of the wheel wells for your matress pad to lay over. Keep in mind the higher you build for storage underneath, the less headspace you have to sit up and crawl around. I used 1/2" thick ply slapped on top of 1x8" pine as a frame and boom, sits...

    Best Shock / Spring combo for washboard roads. Not looking to lift

    +1 on Tire pressure. Drop it to ~20 psi front and rear of its blasting dirt roads at higher speed. Wouldn’t go lower especially if running 4 people and/or a bunch of gear. Any lower I’d start worrying more about rolling it off the bead or generating all that heat from flexing the sidewall at...

    Complete suspension overhaul (and questions about '99 spring mod)

    OME (old man emu) or dobinsons if you’re going to consider the price of OEM Toyota prices. I did bilstien 5100 all corners and did 99 tall front springs and Dobinsons rear all for ~$900 total. The 99tall might have lifted me an inch on a ‘96. Just don’t buy Moog or other cheap as dirt...

    3rd Gen 4Runner Lift Information and FAQ's

    Nothin else besides putting in the 99 coils/springs. I used 99 coils on the front of my 96 to get 1” out of it. Wanted the stock spring rates but not a 2” like the rear so it would have more rake built into it for the constant weight in the back+ gear on trips. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    265/75/16 fit without a lift?

    ‘96, but yeah. Bought it with 230k and Just turned over 250k on it this spring. Head gasket failed into cyl 3, newer 30k (such a score) motor goes in this weekend. Body/frame is in fantastic shape, this motors gonna put it past 400k for sure. Wild someone picked yours up with that many miles...

    265/75/16 fit without a lift?

    You won’t find anything but a 17” rim in 275 width. I searched for months on my tires before pulling trigger. Wider is what I really wanted, but I didn’t plan on a lift. 2 months after buying tires I ended up with a small lift [emoji849] 265/75 or 285/75 if you’re in a 16” rim. 265/75 looks...

    utah group

    Should have it in the shop next weekend to flip the motor out. Chose a transplant form a tundra with pretty damn low mileage. Oil was new on the dipstick, probably sat 10 years, crispy clean under the hood, even the brake fluid looked new. Was a roll over being towed behind an RV. Pretty...

    Tire question

    The reviews are VERY mixed on the duratrac. I chalked most of the reviews up to people never having good much experience with big lugged tires and bit the bullet buying direct from Goodyear’s site. Knew they’d back it up if I hated them or couldn’t get balanced (i’ve worked at a tire shop). Had...

    Tire Research Vomit

    My two cents, don’t get conservative if you want a good looking tire. Get the right size to get a stance you want. 265/70-17 probably not it. You can get the “best looking” tire, but if it’s too small, you’ll have remorse. Find the size. I’m in the 3rd Gen and that size looks beef on this, but...

    Tire question

    I should clarify, duratrac won because of the lack of choice on C rated tires that look good and we’re also rated well in snow. ALSO, C rated was 10-20 pounds lighter per tire, which going up to the 32” 265/75 tire was important to me. I didn’t want to make the truck much more of a slug...
