First of all I want to say thanks.
I've been lurking here for awhile and have found alot of useful info.
So, Thank You!
Although I am new to the forum, I have owned my fair share of yotas over the years. The Wife and I have drove Toyotas for the past 12 years. So the yota blood is pretty thick at our house.
My family and I love the outdoors and have been trail riding for, well, ever since we've been together. Here's a few pics.
my '85.

We got some what "burnt out" with 4wheeling a couple years ago and our trail rigs just sat there, for about a year, ON PAVEMENT. So we sold them to some friends. Don't worry, they are in good hands and get plenty of trail time now.
Now we're missing the trials and here's what we have to work with.

It's the red T4R. Not the brand X in the back ground. We have owned "lightning" as my kids call it, for 5 years and have put 110,000 canoe hauling, camper towing miles on the clock. Only replacement parts have been the front brakes! And tires. Now we are ready to lift, lock, and get it ready for some trail riding and light rock crawling.
My thoughts are the 2.0 OW lift with a 1 inch body. Some mud tires equivalent to 33" or 34" with 16" steel rims. I don't like the idea of wheel spacers.
Def want some sliders and I need to mount my trusty winch on there some how, without a steel bumper. I like the idea of a front hitch mounted high through the stock bumper and a detachable winch plate.
As far as lockers go, I haven't found much on the subject, except the occasional ARB. I always ran the lock rights or the detroit EZ lock on my older rigs and had great luck. Is ARB the only option for the 4th gens?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
THANKS
