This is what Ben told me too (staying with 550), and it has worked out without the C4 low pro. When the low pro and winch are installed I'll have a pretty good idea if that is good advise. Ben mentioned that I can add some preload if I need to, after the winch/bumper is installed. I'll try...

Well, I recently changed from the stock Dunlap tires to BFG K02s load range C in 285/70 with stock OPR wheels. Rides slightly rougher, which was expected because of the tire change. But it continues to be very comfortable on road. I haven't been able to spend much time off road yet...

There is so much slop in the system that my guess would be from 2.5 months to 3.5 months. I think a lot of it has to do timing. I waited a long time, I knew we were moving to Northern Idaho, and I knew I wanted to get a 4Runner to go with our Tundra. I called the Coeur d'Alene Toyota dealer...

Oh, OK. Well good luck, I hope you find a system that works for you.

I think this is what I used for my boat. Add-A-Battery Kit - 120A - Blue Sea Systems This system switches batteries too. Batteries need to be similar. Don't let the simple look of the box fool you. You can buy simpler systems that don't do battery switching too. But the wiring and...

Well those aren't exactly schematic diagrams for electrical of electronics, but they convey the idea at a high level. As I mentioned in my earlier post, I did a marine grade second battery install in my boat. I did it myself, and its non-trivial if you don't know much about these systems...

The Jackery is a high quality solid piece of equipment, read the reviews. Most complaints are like, the XYZ brand has a certain plug I need, or the Bluetti brand is a little cheaper, etc. You will see very few failures if any. Of course they can be misused. My experience for about three...

Yeah, I agree with MrBlah above. ^ I think the simplest and most flexible solution these days is the Jackery or something similar. They just had an anniversary sale, it might still be happening if you check on their site or Amazon. Anyway, I just bought a 1500. And I think I saved $250...

Thanks for the heads up. Winch with synthetic rope and bumper is 120-130 pounds. Skids are aluminum and I haven't bought these yet, but distributed maybe 50lbs. Sliders 100lbs distributed. This might add a couple hundred pounds to the front. Well, it's probably on the border. I'd rather...

Just a note: I'm loving this forum. I just received my initial suspension setup. It will not be installed for a couple weeks. I'll describe what I got and give the details after installation maybe with pics. 21 ORP w/KDSS will be driven 95% on street until it ages awhile. Front: King...

Just found this older thread. Prices still high. My story; Knew I was moving to Idaho from Commiefornia last April. Wanted a 4R so in May I called dealer near where I was moving to. They, of course, had no 4Rs, but thought they might get an allocation in the FUTURE. I negotiated a price...

Thanks for the info and work you shared. I'm adding this to my list of mods for my 21 ORP. When I look at my mod list and prioritized it, I'm afraid this mod may not happen for a coupe years unfortunately. There is a tremendous number of helpful people on this forum who love their...
