I just put a set of 6 ply duratrax on my runner last week. They perform well in the snow but they drone at speeds over 30 mph. Not as bad as mud tires but definitely louder than my other set of bf a/t kos

I like it, I have two questions. What electric fan did you go with and did you remove you ABS controls to install the compressor if so how you do it?
Thanks

Here is a side shot.
I'm also running 265/75R16, I like the size.
I ended up with 2.5" of lift front and rear. I like the 906's cause they're not over stiff. But the OME sport shocks in the rear, those I wouldn't buy again. Would have gone with Bilstiens all around.
Bought the OME stuff at...
Nice looking 4Runner, I've owned mine since 07 and love it. Only wish would be that I held out for a Limited edition. Congrats on the new Runner..

Hey there,
I wish I had another one kicking around. I regreted selling that tire carrier as soon as I sold it. My intro post on expo has some close up pictures of it's build. I would build another one if I had a garage to make it in.
Cheers

What Software are you using to track you overland adventures? I've been looking for a good one to use. Do you use an external gps or the 3g?
Thanks
Tony
Because it comes naturally from the environment? :-)
The problem I've seen with the set up is: 1) where to get the gas from? your house?
2) I know here in WA the 3rd gens are still under DEQ so I have doubts that you could pass a vehicle...
More travel in your rear suspension offroad. Wild body roll on road. You can remove and see if you like it, but unless you have a really stiff suspension I wouldn't recommend removing it of you're doing highway driving.
Here's what I used

I cut the old ones off and reinstalled these new ones. $18 fix with a new tool.
Update
I realized it's been a while since I've updated my page.
1) Sold the roof rack and tire carrier (will build another one in the future)
2) Bought a lighter roof rack with extension from Curt off Amazon (review...
