The Overland Adventures - 4th Gen Build!

Yo fo' runnin' long time no chat! I was dinking around tr4.org and stumbled upon your build thread on the new rig. It looks great. I recently sold my second gen and upgraded to a 4th gen as well. I haven't started a Build thread because it was 90% the way it is when I bought it. But here it is.

Oh I also ditched the CB for HAM. Although i just picked up a hand held.

Cheers!

They are size "too wide." I think they are 315/75R16 but i'd have to double check. Deep Cepek Fun Country. The Bumper is kinda One-off custom jobber made by the now closed Safari Gard Inc.

You get a lot of rubbing on those? They look awesome proportionally to the rest of the truck.

NICE rig bud! That thing looks great! Glad to hear you've also switched to HAM! It's the only way to go!
 
awesome setup, tirerack is doing a special on 255/75r/17's since they're being phased out. in case any of you wanted a good deal on some pizza cutters. I think they're great, ran them on my Disco for years.

Daaaaaaang! That's a really good price! Just a tad too small for my needs though!
 
Did you have any issues with alignment before you swapped the front springs? Thinking of running the same setup on mine later this summer.

I recently enlisted the help of a buddy to help me build custom mounts for the Rola rack so I could ditch the factory rails and the janky u-bolts! He also welded the 3 pieces together into one solid rack for me! Looks much better and is 1000Xs stronger now!








































 
My Bilstiens are in the way and I'm thinking of also ordering some coils. You went with the toytec 2.0 in the rear and 5th gen spring up front right? What would be the equivalent for the fronts to give that 1" extra lift? And I'm guessing you still have the front shocks at 2.5"? That won't mess up the shocks at all?
