    Lift kit for 4Runner doing mild off roading

    We have some experience with building out the 4Runner and FJ Cruiser platforms. If it's going to be a daily driver, mostly road miles, don't waste money on Icon, King, or Fox. In fact, those will likely produce a ride that he won't like on the street. The ones you mention, OME, Dobinsons...

    What happened to all the true adventurers?

    The goal of the article written has been very successfully accomplished. It's inflammatory, controversial opinion has directed an enormous amount of attention to a third rate, probably failing magazine. The writer/owner of the rag is probably sitting back and smiling at all the attention he's...

    Is Goose Gear worth the money?

    After looking at Goose Gear's base and the hefty price tag that goes with it we decided to build our own. We produced a video if you're interested. Ours is for a 4Runner but you can make it work for your Jeep. Here's a link to it: DIY Base Plate And yes, the biggest cost in constructing...

    Dual Battery Build Thread

    It's finally done and so far we're extremely happy with the whole setup! This was a difficult project to do. Not the install and custom fab work, but the research and choosing of the components. The method of charging and battery type to be precise. It seemed that as soon as I made a choice...

The only mod you'll need to do on your 4R is extend the rear diff and e-locker breathers up (google scuba mod). The trans, case, and front diff breathers are in the engine...
