Lunar Rock Gen III Thread

What a great description

 

Need some rules and this is one of them. Getting to 50 is easy especially with all of the content on the many threads.

 

Nice set up. Are you running OEM mud flaps? If so, any issues with the clearance? I was thinking of going this route when the stock tires wear out.

 

Yep, OEM flaps. I caught the front driver flap with a hard left turn up my driveway. Otherwise no issues running around town so far. I'll probably ditch the flaps and try to flex it out on a trail in the next week or two to see if there are any other issues. The Falkens are surprisingly quiet, the General X3's on my last Tacoma were way louder.

 

Thanks! Have fun out on the trail - I need to find the time to do that

 

It's not the greatest, I've lost traction a couple times, and a couple yucca plants had to die as a result lol. I'm def planning on replacing them with some nitto ridge grapplers in the future

 

Love the color combo with these plates.

 

Thanks for the info - I am concerned with the tires in the mud and snow for this coming winter.

 

Wanted to take a picture of the kids and my truck happened to be in the way. I thought it looked pretty decent from this angle so here it is. It’s been raining a lot so it’s finally pretty clean too. Just finished up a hike here and had to wait since the baby fell asleep and I don’t like waking her mid nap if I don’t have to.

 

Almost 17k miles so far on my ‘22 DCLB

Have a Softopper ordered (94th on the waiting list last time I called…), and a bed rack sitting in the box for around the topper. Can’t wait to get it all suited up when the ST arrives!

 

Looks great, I'm a fan of skinnies and use to run them on my TJ! If you don't mind me asking, what was this hit to the fuel economy with the bump in size?

 

17k miles! Glad to see you’re using it!

 

I finally sourced some cool old 6 lug wheels. Picked up these 16x8 -1 SSR Auswuch today 2 hrs away for a smoking deal. A friend does in house sandblasting and powdercoating so I'm going to remove the faces and sandblast them myself then have him powdercoat them (I'm thinking a very light gold or rose gold). The white faces don't look as bad as I thought they would
however

 

Hey everyone hoping to a part of the crew soon! I put a deposit down on a TRD Sport 4x4 DCSB in lunar rock last month. Hoping it comes in soon and I can post some pics!

 

Hit some trails this morning in Gardner Canyon, AZ with some friends in their jeeps. I've finally found the line for how much mud is too much mud with the stock TRD OR tires lol. Had a couple interesting moments going up a muddy rutted hill after last night's monsoon storms rolled through.

 

Skinnies look great, man!

 

The black decal in the back looks really clean. Good job

 

How do you like the Deuter kid carrier? Seems like your kid enjoys it lol. My wife and I were deciding between an Osprey, Kelty, and Deuter.

 

I haven't been tracking it too closely but I lost 1-2mgp depending on conditions.

 

We like it, my sister had an osprey for her kid. I think at this price range you’re looking at all good products. Best I can say is find an REI or local store and just wear it for a bit then pick based off that
