The Overland Adventures - 4th Gen Build!

Been a crazy week at work, so haven't been able to update, but I got the tires on! I am EXTREMELY happy with the lift/tire combo. Had a little rubbing up front, but luckily it was just on the mudflaps, so I removed them and it hasn't rubbed since! It's perfect!





They stuff nicely!

Oh yeah, already had to go rescue a helpless Jeep too... lol

Any of you guys have any pros or cons on the Rough country kit?

Part #760.20A

It's a cheap kit which kinda worries me some.

I've got no experience with that kit, but it's just spacers for the front, which isn't bad, but isn't ideal either. I can't say enough good things about my current setup, the 5100s are great and ride super smooth both on and off road! I would go that route if I were you. I think I have $550 in my suspension.

Found a few minutes to sneak off with the kids while momma was at work today... I am very happy with the way this thing rides off road. Take bumps very smooth and gently, doesn't bind up, has plenty of flex, has plenty of ground clearance. I literally have NO complaints right now.

I really like the way yours turned out. Great build! Mine is only a 2wd so mine will be just for the looks. I wasn't sure if the 2wd model required different parts or if I could just use the same parts you did. Did you put spacers on yours?

If it's just 2wd and you're only doing the lift for looks, then I'd definitely just go with the lift you mentioned earlier. I just assumed you had a 4x4 and would be wheeling it. I do not have any kind of spacers. The 5100s provide 2.5" of lift in the front at their highest setting, which is where I have mine set to. In the rear I did the 2" lift coils from ToyTec.

My kids love going out in the 4runner.

Mine do too! They always have a blast, momma gets a little freaked out sometimes though. LOL :shocked::shocked::shocked:

Yea my wife is the same way, but she trusts me:lookout:. She loves going with me and she is hunting us more places to go. Looks like our builds have the same goals.
