I'll leave you in suspense on the wheel/tire setup. Tires are in the back waiting for the wheels

I'm thinking of getting the same baja rack. Do you still like it? Any thoughts on it? Where did you run your wires too? Any more wide shots of your great rig?

I like the Baja rack a lot. The flat utility rack helps gain back some practicality that I lost getting rid of my truck. Hauling 4x8 sheets of material is doable now. I don't have anymore pictures. I'll get some decent ones when I start driving again in a week.

Short term: have wheels and tires mounted and installed.

Install rock sliders.
Reinstall front skidplate

Trans cooler install.
Swap rear coils and shocks.
Long term. Make it my toy that stays parked and get a car.

The new setup looks good, man. You need to get that ass end up an inch or two.

Yes, I look at it every time I walk outside. I currently have 890s with firm nitrochargers. The ride is terrible.
I cannot decide if I want to go full SS 1.2 in the rear or not. I think 7 wraps would be a little tall for 265/70/17s though.
I have a set of 1.5" day star spacers I have trimmed to 1.0" that I may install in the meantime.

Updates.
I joined an event sponsored by ARB and Ok4wd in the Catskills. I had a good time testing its offroad ability for the first time and met some great people with some interesting rigs along the way
Also, I finally accomplished to perilous task of drilling holes in my roof for the PIAA lights. I dropped the headliner and used Heyco solar panel thru-plugs

I did a small weekend trip with a group from Tacoma world.
The 4Runner did MUCH better than I expected on some of the tougher trails that better equipped tacomas struggled on due to their wheelbase.
We explored around Dorset VT class 4 roads that turned into 4x4 trails, that turned into hiking trails.
Attached are some pictures and trail videos from one of the organizers.

I've got a little work to do.
New reman'd Toyota CVs should be here this week to install.
Do a drain and refill on the trans with toyota T-IV.
I ordered parts to get a "flex-ready" rear suspension
I ordered the Soranan Steel adjustable pan head bar and SS extended brake lines
Ordered toytec bump stop extensions
After this I can decide what rear lift I want. I am thinking 3" toytec coils because they look progressive and haven't been squashed from a previous rear swingout setup like my current 890s. I will probably get eibach rear shocks. They offer a 15" compressed and 24" extended length. I may go LC 7.5 and LC tokiko shocks but I don't know yet.
I also ordered a full bud built skid set in the 1/8" light weight option with stainless hardware.
I want to get it all ready for the exploring NH annual fall crawl event.
I feel like I've gotten a lot done in the last 6 months.
After this, my last big item will be an addicted bumper and winch but that will wait until I get another car to daily and this can stay parked
