    Reverse: I'm using these JDMASTAR bulbs. Wanted to upgrade the reverse lights in my '21 Runner and just happened to find some of these still new in package from my Ram 1500 when I was cleaning out my garage of all things Ram related. Luckily, they are the same size and fit and work great in the Runner!

    High beams: I have the same headlight assemblies (LED lows/halogen highs/drls): I was ecstatic to learn that the 9005-9011 Philips mod that I used in my Ram also works for my Runner! So I just purchased these 9011 HIR Philips bulbs and will be performing this "mod" this weekend! Sounds like the upgrade in output will be just as good as it was in my Ram - if so, I'll be quite pleased!

    Wow, that looks great. I'm heavily leaning towards the IMS suspension for mine too. I'm running stock size Toyo AT3's on mine and I'm curious what size you have to give me a relative size comparison for the amount of lift you have.

    Toyo Open Country III as well in 275-70-17. They are only available in E load which for some are overkill. I figure they are indestructible...almost. Thought about 285-70-17 Toyos in C but they are heavier than the size I have. Didn't want to go KO2s due to user reports here of hydroplaning and balance challenges. KO2s in 285-70-17 C are a bit lighter.
    User experiences differ...

    Replaced rear pads and rotors. They had 80k miles on them. Rotated the tires while I was at it.

    Front Passenger side is done. These caliper pins are a pita. IMG_20220927_155021.jpg IMG_20220927_172142.jpg

    I'm able to get one of the caliper pins out on the driver's side, but so far, the other one won't budge at all.

    Thanks.
    Love it. Going up to MT/ WY soon to REALLY try out the suspension.
    I'll elaborate. Tighter, significantly improved nose dive, little stiffer (to be expected), takes speed bumps, expansion joints, RR tracks, pot holes and road irregularities with aplomb. Much improved over OEM suspension.

    That’s one of the best descriptions that I’ve read yet. Those “obstacles” are ones I encounter every day so that’s super useful information. Thank you!

    Dobinsons 2.5" lift. Cooper AT3 XLT 295/70R17.
    Ran out of daylight, so packed it up for the night. Left it soaking in some PB blaster, but I have a feeling I'll be removing it in pieces tomorrow. I was finally able to find a part number (47735-60300), so hopefully my local dealership has some in stock.

    Love how your wheels turned out. Did you powder coat them?

    This is the inspiration I needed. Thanks! I've been going back and forth between new wheels vs powder coat and your set up looks fantastic.

    Thanks. They were pricey. For the price I could have bought RR wheels but preferred the stockers the way I wanted them.

    Thanks. And I understand trying to wrap your brain on better using the space, my brain is warped from figuring it out. There's NOT much space for things. I needed the frame to support the expanded bed and closed it off for the looks and to use the cedar to keep bugs away. The storage was NOT planned or intended but still somewhat useful. NOT sure if it's noticeable, but the 80/20 is attached to the vehicle at already available anchor points, I think they're all 10mm, and there are several.

    Your profile says you're in AZ. I live in Phoenix and don't mind driving if you want to take a look at it. Anyhow, hope the pictures help.

    Is that a camping packed-out (food, water, clothing, etc) weight or only the vehicle?
