Just picked mine up this morning after having the bar installed at Southern Offroad in Atlanta. I added a few pics of the cuts needed to have it tucked up so high. This bar looks so right with this truck.
How did you go with this?
Noticed there’s another size available now for skinny 33s being 235/80R18.

Look at where your factory plates got beat up and go from there. You may not need full steel plates since most hits are likely upfront. My approach was to get budbuilt steel up front, with the convenience of oil filter access, then a mix of...
275/70R18 Toyo RT Trails on stock wheels at stock height (for now, with 2” lift inbound). The RT Trails are one of the best all around tire I’ve ever run in my 40 years of offroad tire nerd experience. They are flat out amazing.
I’ll add...
I’ve run the Toyo AT 3 on our 2020 Taco. They were decent, but I wanted something more deep snow and mud capable. The RT Trails are unbelievably good in snow. I live in the Kootenay region of British Columbia, which is world renowned for its...
My daughter is moving to Rust country so I just gave this one a good coat of WoolWax

It rides very very good.
I always felt Land Cruisers were a bit heavy in stock form for the...

1. The 6 is definitely more powerful and smooth and feels so much more appropriate for the size and weight of each. I do like the straightforwardness of the total package on the 1958 setup with the 4, and like that there’s enough difference to...
The ride is much better than the factory AVS shocks. Raised the front up about 2 inches, with 1 perch left to go up higher if I want. With the tires, which are a little bigger than the OEM Toyos, there is 12" of clearance under the front skid...
