    A lot of stuff.
    What's up everyone. I have a 2016 Trail that I've owned for about 3years now. The 4Runner was completely stock with about 10k miles when I picked it up. Here's what the build looks like 65k miles later. I'll try to keep this thread updated with any new mods coming in.

    Nice looking rig. Im in the process of building one with very similar components all the way around.

    Did you have to use the wheel spacers to clear 35's even with the -10 wheel off set?

    the wheel spacers weren't necessary. I just wanted the wider stance.

    Very cool setup. A couple of questions, how do you like the rear bumper? I have been wanting to do one just for protection but not for carrying a spare since I hear there is some vibration with some units. Second, any regrets or things you wouldn't mess with and just leave alone? Thanks and keeping ir going.

    Love the Nguyenworks bumper. I haven't had any vibration issues with it at all. The mods on the 4Runner was thoughtfully planned out and added as needed so no regrets here.

    I received a Nguyen rear bumper. It did not come with installation instructions. Could you post a pic of the inside corners of the hatch area? And what is the measurement from the top of the bumper to the horizontal line on the body panel behind the wheel well?
    Areas that I need, pics below. Thanks.
    Also, any advice would be appreciated. i.e. Tools to use, things to watch out for, etc. This seems a little intimidating.
    Did you cut the bumper cover on the 4R or did you remove it?
