Are you running 35" tires?

Yep yep, I've been running 35"s for almost 3 years

Are there any rub at a full turn?

 

[the_josh]

At full lock and on compression like pulling onto a curb or rock I will get some rubbing on the frame other than That no

Maybe I missed it, but what water tank did you end up using?

I would like to do the onboard water at some point

Too bad there can only be one winner, but...

Congrats on T4R of the month! You have such an awesome 4th gen and great build thread to go along with it. I'm really digging the shower....

:iagree: What he said. Congrats! Any more info on your rock light setup? which lights did you go with? Sick truck - it's an inspiration to all of us, I'm sure.

I am using a 12 gallon valterra abs tank. I purchased it off amazon and it's been working out great

Thank you very much!

For my rock lights I used 8 Ddm tuning Zx series Offroad LEDs
From ddm:
"This Hi Power 116mm Round Off Road Flood Light uses 6 x 3W Hi Power LED bulbs for an incredible output of 1350 Lumens per housing. "

I wired all the lights to a blue seas marine bus bar then I water proofed it and ran it to a switch inside. Works great and the lights are super bright!

I'll make sure to get a bunch of night shots at Pismo in a few weeks

Awesome build, Josh. Everything seems to fit well together, and the 35's look great! They've got me wanting to search out some KM2's! Very nice.

 

[4runnertank]

To say this is a well built runner is probably the understatement of the year.

 

[the_josh]

nice!

thanks!

thank you very much, its been many years of planning!

the KM2's are a great tire and i will run them again after this set wears out

thank you so much, i really appreciate it!
