    Damn you! I've been bringing it up to friends and family, and now I don't think I'll be happy until I at least try 33s.... No one but my little brother seems to be talking me out of it. I should probably listen to him and stick with 32s. I may regret it but I won't know unless I try.... What's that saying?

    "Just send it."

    Too early to to tell but probably not. It's lighter than I thought. Either way, Im going to try designing and fab-ing a rack at work. Just trying to work out what I want and how to do it within the broad scope of tools we have. I think it might come out similar to @Tynan's since we can't bend or laser tube yet.

    Still pushing to get a tube laser but Ill settle for our new Fiber laser. It can do 1/2" plate steel... Might make a bumper!

    Quit it! The 4Runner is just fine with the 32s. Looks perfect. The one I'm having an issue with is the 3rd Gen Taco.... 33s with no lift.... At least for a few months. I'm crazy right?
