Great setup

Hey guys. New here. Not a Jeep, Toyota or LR but I have an '18 Ford Raptor that I'm hoping will spend a lot more time off road than on. Mostly stock now but I'm in the process of getting it outfitted. So far the biggest mods have been leveling the front, on board air and more money than I'm comfortable admitting in Baja Designs lighting. Have a set of 17" Method 305's waiting to go on. I'm currently looking for a bed rack that will allow me to use a roof top tent. Any suggestions you guys have is absolutely welcome!

Welcome and you have a vey nice rig going there. The three vehicles you mentioned are legends in their own right. Ford also has built many legends and they wont quit till it's done. Good choice my friend, I'm turning green..

Jumped off the Jeep bandwagon last fall, after almost 30 years and bought a ram 1500. I liked it so much that I traded that for a 2500 diesel. Just need to get rid of the 20" wheels for some 17/18".

2500 !

You go, man....

Whats wrong with the 20" wheels you have ?
The disk brakes you have now may not allow for a 17" wheel. ?????

From what I read it is 17" minimum. The wheels on it now have 0 offset so they make the truck about 8" wider than it needs to be and 17" tires are cheaper, better for airing down without popping a bead and more rubber to absorb obstacles without hitting the rim or pinching the sidewall. I also like narrow tires and would like some 285/75r18 toyo at. 35x11 pretty much.

I get it. I have an older 1984 Ram 250 4x4. I have 265/70r/17 on it that came off a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500. I'm changing over to a 305/R 70/16 for the same reason. I want more cushioning and better back spacing because the new wheels are 10" wide versus 8".. I will gain about 1 1/2 " of height as an added benefit.

Trying to get back on here. No longer have the Cherokee, but we do have a 2016 Tacoma. Loving this thing!

My JK Rubicon. Overlanding in a 2 Door is space challenging but lets me get places 4 doors struggle to fit.View attachment 102685View attachment 102686

I really like your setup. I, too, have the struggles of fitting everything into a 2 door JK. But I love this thing.

Up northwest of Prescott enjoying the cooler weather. Starting to build it out now that I have moved to Tucson.

Somewhat new here. I have been traveling for quite some time. I have the JKU and the 4runner is the wife's new rig. Getting ready to head to AZ from MO. Looking forward to meeting up with some like minded folks.

Will you be moving or just visiting AZ? So many places to wheel here - you will love it. Remember slow and steady here in the desert.

I had a hard time ever moving on to a 4 door anything. 6 kids changed my mind pretty fast. I never let a 4 door keep me from going where I wanted too. Just a few more maneuvers took care of that..

Where was that in Az. Nice little stream for a state with little water.

I love the Prescott area. Tucson is much like El Paso weather wise, and that is too hot for me now that I'm older and less tolerant of the weather. But you have to live where you make a living and cant always live where we really want to. Another reason to be an OB person, it keeps you sane.

That was a actually up north of Phoenix at Table Mesa. We have had quite a bit of rain and snow this year.

Nice place, I think I was there in 1974 but didn't stop in that area. I was on my way to Prescott.
