    Nice!! Thanks for the video @uhplifted, not very often I get to see myself in action on video like that haha.

    You can totally see me picking the wrong line there three times at 7:40 before I wised up and went around lol.

    If it is a stage it would be a stage 8? I think they only go to 7.

    What I mean is this isn't a stage setup. It's Icon Tubular UCAs, gusseted spindles, and Icon 2.5" RR Coilovers with CDCV. That is like a stage 6 I think?

    On top of that it is Icon S2 set up. Shock hoop and skid plate in order for the secondary triple bypasses to connect.

    One of the guys at America Tires in Lakewood had this on his 15 Tacoma. Said he just finished his build, hadn't really taken it off road yet. Was drooling all over it.

    They are honestly excessive for what I use them for. I am not a go fast type of driver. I like to take it slow and enjoy.
    Wish I could say I bought it! The previous owner installed it. I love it, but I wouldn't go this far if it was me setting it up. The rig was a good deal though!

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Same. Several voices have said 10-12 is "danger zone" and contrary to @dtaco06 I've never had the luxury of a tire cooling while offroad. Most of them bake even hotter I've found.

    No I am really digging Relentless stuff on this build so far like my sliders and IFS skid and they had my favorite rear bumper so I am going with them. I ordered a rear. it will be a while until I get a front. Have some life expenses coming up. Moving in with Long Term GF next month.

    These are the bumpers I'll have down the line.

    Snappers! The lines on that rear look great on the 4Runner. Very sleek. Although it looks like it's sitting super close to the body. Not much room for flex? Photo is probably just deceiving. Congrats on moving in with your girl.

    Thanks!

    That is their prototype. The original bumper. They are making one for Brittony (Eric's wife) and mine at the same time. She just got a 2016 in black. I'm confident that it has the right space. If not, I'll trim a little more off my rear bumper.
