I'm not trying to be negative about it at all. I think it is pretty awesome. I just think it is interesting that it is 7" longer than a 4Runner yet has so much less interior space. Tapers towards the back in the overhead shots. Of note straight from the Toyota website the 5th gen 4runner has...
My only issue with it is this: Despite being 7" longer than the current 4Runner it has 11 cubic feet less cargo space with the second row down 89.7 vs 78.8, further it has almost 13 less with the second row up 47.2 vs 34.6. It has a great payload capacity but I think a lot of that comes from...
Icons are adjustable, and can be rebuilt. Both use digressive valving rather than progressive like Kings do. I have Icons on my 4Runner and for the most part have been happy with them. To be honest though if I were to do it all again I'd probably just go with an appropriate weight OME kit...
I think the biggest issue people have are the prices of the 34x10.50. I for one was excited about them, as were many others when the size was announced. BUT talk about sticker shock! $328 per tire at Discount Tire and $327 at Tire Rack! for a 33" tire to cost as much or more than many 35"...
Falken is releas
I have the Toyos in the 255/80R17 currently. Other than the somewhat tame looks I have been very happy with them. I was very excited about the 34x10.5 KO2s when they were first announced. IMHO BFG REALLY screwed up with the pricing on them. They are pushing the 35-37" tire...
That is for the original AT3, and not the entirely new lineup that came out in July. There are now 3 new versions of the AT3 ranging from a model for Crossovers to a model for heavy trucks and off roaders. Each is different. Other than a bit of chatter in the forum there has been no...
I have been surprised that there has not even been a mention of the new Cooper Discoverer AT3 Lineup on the front page. Maybe they are waiting to get some miles on them, but even a "Cooper's updated lineup" article hasn't even shown up. For how big of Cooper fans the Journal and Portal team...
My .02 cents. The icon springs are going to give 3" of lift in the back. If you leave the front suspension stock the rear, even loaded is going to sit far higher than the front. Not to mention that the stock TRD Pro shocks are going to be too short for those springs too. If you are worried...
Hey Congrats on the 4th Gen! The V8 is a great engine! I too have a fridge in back. I routed 10ga wire from the battery to a new 12V plug that I installed. The wires are routed along the driver side door jam under the plastic threshold. Super easy. Its better to use thicker wire anyway, there...
