hello thought I would say hi
I have been on mud for a while mostly in the 40 80 and 100 series side but now have decided to pull the trigger and trade my tundra in on my 2014 200 . Love it so far planning on a overland build. I just sold my 80series (it will be missed) and now have the funds to start my build. Will try keep up todate on prog.

I have read tons of these post on lift tires bumpers and have decided on a few

My front bumper is going to be Tjm may consider the iron man.

Lift I'm leaning hard on the iron man pro lift . Radaflo and icon are more maintince then I care to miss with rebuilding and shipping back and forth and I have already done the icon on my fj before and don't wana go down that road so I'll try the iron man kit.

Trying to get metal tech for Sliders had a set on my 80 they were epic. But they are still working on finding a rig to test and I'm in Montana so may have to go slee:)

Going with the reg arb rear bumper due to lack of any other option please feel free to suggest one available here in the USA is love more choices then what I have found!!!

Hoping for 35.12.50r18s don't mind going trimming but haven't seen much on 200s with 35s and what's needed to get them to clear :)

Still winch shopping
Going with the cree led bars I have had a few all work even one that was rolled over on lol

Anyway hi! Located in Montana

A couple of us on here are rocking the Ironman Cellfoam pro kit and loving it! I've heard rumors that Slee could possibly come out with a rear bumper at some point, also Willy Beamin has a guy that custom built one for him and can make more if ordered, check with Willy for details on that rear bumper. 35's are definitely doable, you'll proly need to get larger bump stops through Slee, a KDSS relocation kit and proly throw the Toyota front spacers in for a notch more lift... Where ya at in Montana, was just out there at Glacier last year, love it out there! Welcome to the gang!
 
leave it stock and buy a fast car - keep them both
 
Congrats on the new ride. Looks great. Beautiful state. We spent about a week driving up to Glacier/Flathead Lake, and staying in downtown (our relative owns a large hotel there by the university). Jealous of all the open land you have out there

Don't listen to this guy; build it and make it yours. Also, you should buy a fast car too.

I have been wanting a f430 since they came out in the late 2000s. Once we move into our new house in a few years, I plan on making that happen.

MS is correct, don't listen to me. Build it. I will say though at some point you'll get it to where you are looking for a new project.

I rented a F430 for an hour and drove the hell out of that sucker on the back roads of Maranello a few years back - sweet ride - you will enjoy it - this is what I really wanted to rent for the hour

thanks,
im in kalispell and was just in the park sunday and every other weekend really. just got off the phone with mark at metal tech earlier today . im doing the ironman pro with the spc upper control arms. ironman front bumper . metal tech sliders and maybe the 12000lbs monster winch. still on the ropes on that. not alot of reviews for the new ones. but they sound super solid and ill prob be the test monkey. 3 year warranty to!

on the speed side i have had my list of toys. 2 wrx sti, one with sr55 turbo kit . s8 audi urs6 audi aps twin turbo 6.0 gto .I have more fun after the road turns to dirt and montana roads are not the best to fast cars pot holes for miles.

those with 35s do they still flex ok on trails ? tires tuck ok? what offset are you guys running and wheels spacers?

Drool.

When I used to live in Memphis, there was a guy with an F50 and an Enzo. I was jealous to say the least. (Though, if I were him, I would have ditched the 50 for the f40)
