    Photos never do the actual scene justice....at least mine don't.

    I think you answered your own question on Instagram. But yes they're 285/75-16's and I've liked them a lot so far.

    Thank you, I just got hired with the Fire Department here in Elko so soon my schedule will allow for more trips and ability to travel during the summer too so hopefully I'll get some more pictures and trip reports soon!

    Hmm little update here. Picked my rack up from Zack @prinsudesignsstudio while I was in SLC last week for my dads surgery. Put it together and on in maybe an hour in the parking lot of the VA hospital. Pretty straightforward installation, I actually didn't even have the instructions but it's fairly easy to figure out without them. Now I'm waiting on a single row 40" bar to mount right above the fairing. I think the 50" radius bar would look funky with the rack. Great product and awesome guy to deal with!

    5 bolts per side in three locations. It's awesome that the double cabs come pre drilled/tapped to accept a rack.

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma

    Nice build. Love the fact that you do all the work yourself

    Here's the rack with the 40" single row bar. I'll probably end up cutting the fairing to lower the bar down so the top of the bar and fairing end up being equal.

    In other news: I can't pass on projects. I bought another 4Runner. Same people that had my 85. Got it to our "storage" property, threw a battery in it, new fuel pump and what do you know, the 4Runner that "didn't run" runs. I think the power steering pump and it has no rear driveline but I was able to throw it in 4hi and drive it. It held 75mph off-road with the a/c on. Ended up paying $650 for it. Bought the cheapest fuel pump I could find online so now I'm into this 94 about $690. Here's some photos.

    Long term plan for Ol Blue is 3.4L swap, Total Chaos 4x4 long travel, deavers in the rear along with a T-100 rear axle. Will probably also do a dual T-case as well.
