Hi I’m From Denver

I have a 2018 Toyota 4Runner SR5 mostly stock.

Im looking to get Kings suspension or fox shocks installed in the future.

Only real modification I’ve done so far is a ARB awning

I’m looking to go ultralight

Any recommendations on suspension wheels and tires would be great. I don’t wanna sacrifice my gas mileage.

Hey Daniel! welcome to the community from Fort Collins!
Our local group has a bunch of 4runners, i know several have gone with Dobinsons (@trail_runn4r and @Aeroscout) and IronMan Foam Cell suspensions (@RedRunner87), I know atleast one other has ordered Kings but has been waiting since almost april/may. I run Fox on my Tacoma and absolutely love it. Wheels are really a personal preference from the stand point of price, looks and performance. As far as tires most of us are currently running All Terrain tires, quite a few of us specifically have BFG KO2s, Falken Wildepeak AT3, Nitto Terra and Ridge Grappler. I personally will be upsizing next set of tires i get and will be going mud-terrains for summer still figuring out which set but ill be keeping my ATs for winter driving.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, I hope we get to meet you some time soon, we are in the process of planning recurring Rigs and (insert beverage/food here) meetups for the winter/off-season months.

Greetings everyone,

I joined today, live in Petaluma, CA. and drive a 2016 Tacoma Access Cab that’s an ongoing work in progress. I’m new to overlanding but not new to taking the occasional weekend camping trip. Definitely looking forward to meeting new folks and getting out.

Cheers, Paul

Hi everyone,

Currently in the Los Angeles area, but spent most of my life in the North Bay, near San Francisco.

I have a 2004 Nissan Xterra with a manual transmission. Only upgrades are all terrains and a steel bumper from Coastal Offroad I welded together.

Grew up driving my dad’s 85 Nissan 4x4 pickup in the woods. I’m actually planning on selling the X soon and turning the old truck into a new rig. Over the last 7 years I’ve taken the X on several multi-day back country trips with friends, mainly California and Nevada deserts. Took a clinic with Badlands Offroad Adventures a few years ago too. I’m always up for learning techniques, equipment, and hearing others’ stories. Happy to be here.

Hi Everyone

I'm Lance in Foley Alabama with my wife Cindy. We love watching YouTube vids of dirt roads and dispersed camping and wanted to try it. We have a 2019 Toyota 4 Runner. The first thing I did after getting it last year, was to get rid of the street tires and put on all terrain shoes. We have been rigging our ride and campaigning it in Alabama dirt ever since.

Hello Lance, welcome to Overland Bound.
I would suggest you not put your complete home address out on this web site, just a thought.

Hello! I’m an old school off-road guy, not new to the woods, but embracing the overlanding adventure. I live about 25 mins south of Atlanta Airport, always looking for back roads and that “sweet spot.” I look forward to learning, growing, and meeting as many like-minded folks as I can. Stay safe, ask if I can be of help or assistance, love talking about ham radio and off-grid communications.

Welcome! Just drive north and you’ll end up in one of my favorite areas to off-grid camp!

Hello everyone.
Been looking at getting into the overland camping experience for a few years now.
Currently own a 2016 Ram Rebel.
We will see if I keep this truck. I will be living Germany for the next 4 years. And may look at getting a new truck when I return stateside. Not sure if there is a big enough overlanding crowd over there to warrant building and investing in my current rig while over there.
Joined OLB to meet people that share the same interests and have experience and perspectives to share.
