2008 Urban Runner- BUILD

[FJH195]

285/70-r17 Falken MT's for tire size.

As far as the Wilco goes, I only got it because it was $500 on Facebook and in mint condition. I would never pay the $1100 for a brand new one. If you can find one used, try to look for the high clearance one. I lose ground clearance, and the damn thing sticks out two feet. My friend has the Rigd one, and I like that design way more.

To each their own, but I will be getting a rear bumper in the coming months.

I've seen the Rigd one too, I like that Wilco offers an offset version. I think I'm just going to wait and get a bumper..

Have you had any issues with 285's on the TRD wheels? I really want TRD wheels and 285/70 KO2's but the 7" width is kinda sus...

No issues. I've got +35k miles on both the wheels and tires, and will likely get the exact same setup by the end of the year. I love my tires, and I love my wheels (on and off-road).

Good to know! I can't seem to budge on either so i'm pretty sure i'm going with that setup. :thumb3:

Loved my Urban Runner... sadly it was totaled back in October in a rear-end accident that sandwiched me between two cars. [emoji17]

I have the Rigd one, pretty nice. Doesn't stick out as far as the Wilco seems too. Doesn't make any noise either.

Yikes dude, sorry to hear that. Thankfully you walked away from it!

Thank you!

I had an IG account just for the 4Runner, but I only used it for a week or so. All my 4Runner stuff just goes straight to my personal account- @strachanhagood

I appreciate the feedback.

Any plans to head to uwharrie anytime soon? Id love to get a look at your build and see how it handles

 

[dcraddo03]

Great build and thanks for the thread! Looks great and I'm sure it handles great too.

How do you like that wheel/tire setup with the spacers? Do you get any rubbing under flex? Looks great!

Yes, I will definitely be back to Uwharrie. We spent a few days there back in November, and I will go back this fall.

I don't enjoy camping when it's hot, so I probably won't be back up there until September. Hit me up on facebook or instagram, we can coordinate something.

Unfortunately not great at all. My CVs are busted, and my LCA bushings are shot too. I'm waiting on the new SuperPro LCAs to come in.

I love this tire/wheel setup, especially so with the wheel spacers. I did have the body mount chop done early on, so that helps mitigate rubbing. Under heavy articulation, there is minimal rubbing.

Nice build man. Do you have any close up pics of the LFD set up? I have the same rails but my side rails seem to have a high center which has made mounting things a little harder. Did you run into the same issue with yours?

What's your plan for CV's? I know these are in my future and would love ideas on options.

Awesome build!
