285/75/17 Grapplers I know this post is a few years old, but if you're still on here can you give an update to this set-up? I'm looking to do the same but a little weary of the mpg hit. Those tires are about 15lb heavier than mine. Incredible looking vehicle. You must be proud!

Elephant Hill Devils Kitchen over Elephant Hill is a good trail. Managed it on my stock 4runner with 275 KO2s. Lockers are a nice to have getting back over the hump on your way out. If you have the time an easier drive is the White Rim Road. If you want to camp on it you'll need to book...

Tough but doable Few years late on response here, but thought I'd mention I just did this trail last month (May 2017) and although my stock 2017 Trail handled the trek well I came away wishing I had a slight lift and/or beefer skids on my truck. Fuel cover and front skid got bashed up fairly...

Rigid Foam leveling Great idea for weight conscious methods. Did you wrap the foam with anything, and/or use anything to keep it strapped to the floor?

See photo below for bolt placement. I left them long temporarily in case I needed to re-set the track or something. Temporarily like many things became permanent. The bolts are covered with a black rubber sock that came with the Yakima track. Here you can see where the track overlaps the...

Great idea! I knew i left those bolts long for a reason. It certainly wasn't laziness.

The metal strip is curved. Care to show us the whole length of it and which holes you used? How far inboard do you think should one move the mount to make sure it clears the quarter-window seal? T-Nuts or T-bolts would work without having to remove the end-caps. Thanks! I'm pretty happy...

I didnt powder coat but I did spray paint. I bought the Gunmetal matte wheels and Rustoleum puts out a good colour match for it. Bought the TRD sticker and will put it on there when it arrives...

Yakima track rails work well if placed in the right location. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/classic-t4rs/130505-roof-rack-2.html#post2677266

I used a Yakima track on my 1st gen. The roof liner mount is the same length and shares screw points similar to where I wanted to mount the rack on top, so I removed the liner mount, drilled out the holes that matched the rack, and re-installed with new bolts. I like this mount because it...
