Thanks! i would love to mod up the taco! Probably a lift only in the near future to maintain it as our daily driver. Ya it works pretty well. Though I like the centered spare I think if I did it again I would have the tire offset to create less moment and swinging distance. It actually protects...

I built the Tire carrier. works well and bolts right to the frame underneath. If I could go back I would have it pivot from both sides so that the swing isn't so long.

Here is the 4runner with the Taco.

Last but not least, Here is the finished Product!

After that, I put the bumper in the hands of Josh to let him work his magic in refining it to be a working template for a potential future product (Disclaimer that he will not be selling this production for a while)

So after a lot of CAD drawing and bending and Cutting(RCI hookup), I came up with working prototype although a little rough around the edges.

Thanks! I believe it was the cheaper coilovers they make. I did not have a lot of extra money at the time. It works great but I wish I had the Boss 2.0 with reserves. Maybe in the not too distant future I can upgrade. I put the Heavy Duty Springs in the Back. I love them.

Next, I has on to tackle the biggest build to date which was a custom bumper. Here is the First Step mockup I made on the Runner

Here is the finished product. I also built a sliding fridge mount for my ARB fridge that was on the way

Next up on the list, I wanted to have a place to store all of my tools and recovery gear so I decided to build some full extention drawers. Here's the pup helping me with the install.

the model # is TR888A1 from Alibaba.com

Thanks! You have an awesome 4Runner as well. I like that you have the built up taco for the wife. We just got a 2016 taco to keep the t4r company last fall. I'm still posting pictures of the build. I'll put one up soon of the runner and taco next to each other

I totally love the tent! Ya I also saw a Kickstarter company trying to pitch this exact tent. Sketchy. I would recommend this type of tent for 4runners because it fits nicely on top and is wind,rain and hail resistant. Hard top roof is nice in a storm.

Thanks t-Rex. I built the hidden winch system in my bumper. Basically welded a plate on the inner frame member with some other small fabrication. It worked pretty well. I have a badlands 9000lb. I would imagine the bud built hidden would work great. Now I have swapped the hidden winch for a full...
