Ok so if any of you are thinking of changing your tires on stock 18’s, it’s probably a bad idea as only super stiff e load is available in AT tires. If you have an sr5 (it comes stock with 17’s) you can upgrade to 285/70/17 in C load and it will be a lot smoother! I recommend starting with...
FIFTY PSI!!! Holy SHIP!
Those are p rated tires. You are lucky they didn’t go BOOM on the road. My sweet spot for my 4Runners p rated or C rated is 37psi.
in fact I ran the same psi in both my 5th gen’s.
Question about your trailhunter. Did the rear drop down a little when you added the tent and loaded up in rear?
The reason I ask is that the aftermarket arb/ome suspension is only available with light load springs. A medium spring if it were available could handle 300+ lbs of weight before it...
Thinking about this more.
The aftermarket OME kit comes with light load springs front and rear. In fact those are the only springs available.
no one knows the spring rate of the Oem trailhunter.
some members here have put a tent. Medium springs if they were available should handle 300+ lbs...
I have looked at icon, and fox 2.0 and disappointingly (correct me if I’m wrong) the springs are progressive. I have always liked linear and do not like the delay in handling with progressive springs.
I’m going to reach out to arb again as my search is inconclusive.
I do not mind digressive...
Make sure you didn’t go with E rated tires. Stick with C load. If you have 18” wheels I’d switch to 17 as every other option available is only E load
You probably don’t want aftermarket wheels then. FACTORY offset wheels won’t have this problem at all. In fact I had 285’s on the 5th gen’s I just traded in and it wasn’t an issue with factory trd wheels. I bought 4th gen Tacoma trd off-road wheels powder coated black. I have tires sitting in...
Lastly it looks like almost all builds from manufacturers are using sr5 or trd sport. FYI trd sport is just a rebranded sr5 but with the premium features.
Limited or sport. NO IM KIDDING!
Probably off-road. If you don’t care about premium interior I would just get the sr5. Throw your choice of 285/70/17’s on the stock wheels. Then grab the arb ome lift kit. It’s the same kit as the trail hunter but lifted more than trail hunter. 3 inch front and 2...
I’m looking for something that doesn’t attach to the crossbars. I have the crossbars set at each corner for a removable rack. I’d like to use the two innermost points. To mount. I’ll post if I eventually find something
In both my last 2 5th gen 4Runners I swapped out the alt-s fuse for a GM diode fuse that cost 10 bucks. This bumped up the voltage. It Would be cool if it worked in the 6th gen. I have a spare fuse but someone else can experiment because I’m not lol.
I got this response from ARB ON THE 3rd.
You will need our UCA's to correctly align your vehicle once the kit has been installed. If you do not have aftermarket UCA's I would suggest the 2135K, it will give you everything you need to achieve the lift and proper alignment. Not having them...
