Thanks! Definitely one of the best trails!

Lol Thanks!

Thanks! 😉👍

Trail Runnah Thanks really appreciate it!😉👍 Make the trip it’s a whole other world out there. We are heading back west this summer. Feeling really trapped in Florida. Just lots of sand and mud holes here. 😂

Thanks! 😉👍

Cheesehead Tony Absolutely!!!!!

That’s encouraging. I’m thinking of doing the same this weekend. No armor, no extra lift or new tires…still stock. A bit nervous but going with friends in their lifted keep and a stock FJ Cruiser.

You are welcome!😉👍 Nice setup!

Thank you!

Thank you!😉👍

Thanks!👍

Thanks!!😉

MrJovila1234 Hi Joe, Thanks! Glad you liked the video. I was running 24psi on that trail. I absolutely love KO2’s. Best all terrain tire in my opinion.

Thank you very much!

Thanks! I have a OME 3inch lift 4R210

Jim Meyer No worries. I run 20-24lbs thanks

Cool! You’ll have a blast. I usually run 20-22psi. I know people say to go lower but that’s what I run. Gives me a little more clearance, less likely to loose a bead, and if my compressor takes a shit I can still drive it on the road.

Thanks! 94k miles no issues with CV’s or Axles Lower control arm bushings seem to be the weak spot I replaced them once and they are about due again.

Yes 285/70/17’s stock gearing

Yes you could. On these trails it helps to have skids you will bottom out from time to time. I also bring recover gear. Hand winch, traction boards, shovel, jack, yank strap. It’s a great trail!

Thank you!🙏

Thanks! I don’t remember seeing a bypass. From what I remember it has a T you can go either way and they both end. I think They both ended at some walking trails. You have to turn around and go back to the start.

You will fit through the squeeze.

Thanks! OME shocks and springs RCI skids and RSG Slider. I have a full walk around video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNikl5ii2L6okoU.html

Thanks! Lift and bigger tires.

Never mind, I just found your installation video for the TJM Airtec snorkel. Thanks again!

Jim Meyer no prob

Thanks! Congrats on your new rig. I have RCI full steel skids. I don’t recommend them as one of the welds broke the first time I used them and when I called they refused warranty or fix them. They also don’t coat them well. I’ve had to repaint them several times and they keep rusting really bad. I do recommend my RSG sliders they have held up way better! I also have a full build video I did a few years ago on my channel. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNikl5ii2L6okoU.htmlsi=sr6qyhuwi252Unvf

@@jimerinrose6235 Thank you for the info. You do some mighty impressive driving. We want to go out West soon. However, we want to armor-up. Our 4Runner will be used mostly as my wife for her daily use, but we want to be prepared. Appreciate the insights into RCI. At present, leaning towards BudBuilt. They have a 1/8" steel option (lighter than normal), but probably suitable for what we need and beyond. God Bless and safe driving.

goatee21 😂 LOL She tells me it’s her exercise. Thanks!

Yes was a couple years ago but it’s the same. 3 year 85k mile review and mods walk around 2018 4Runner TRD Off-Road kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNikl5ii2L6okoU.html

@@jimerinrose6235 thank you 🙏 Enjoy your videos very much. 👍

Thanks! Believe it or not I get more comments liking no commentary or music. Just a 4Runner in the wild.

oh and a shout out to me and Tracy as we follow you lol

Hi Ched, Sure I can make a video. I use the rear lockers on steep rocky inclines. Especially if one of the rear tires doesn’t have much traction. It’s my favorite of all the nannies. I’ve been dead stuck, hit the locker and up I go. Atrac is like traction control. It stops a spinning tire to allow more power to go to tire that is on the ground. When your rear locker is on Atrac mostly helps with the front wheels. It’s my second favorite nanny. Crawl control is great when you’re are getting all four tires spinning and not making any forward progress. It gives each wheel the right amount of power with losing the least amount of traction. Terrain select I don’t use much and really haven’t noticed much of a difference. I try to drive the vehicle with the least amount of nannies as it makes more of a challenge. But when it risk doing damage to the truck or I’m not making any forward progress I call on a little help from the magic buttons. Lol

Ched Lejano thanks!😉👍

thanks you much! appreciate it

Ched Lejano no prob😉👍

Rick Mccraw Yes! We live in SW Florida. We have made two off-road trips out west so far and absolutely love it. Heading back in August if this Covid-19 is under control. You’ll have a blast out there, totally different from Florida. Thanks for the comment, I’m glad you are enjoying the videos...😉👍

Nice Rig! You'll love Elephant Hill!!!!

WARWEAPONX Thanks! 😉👍 I have a 3inch old man emu lift and adjustable upper control arms.

Brandywine Maintenance 😂 Thanks That would be nice! Maybe they could throw in a couple spare 4Runners too!😎 I would rate Elephant hill a little harder than the main trail at Devils Revenge. It just has a lot more uneven rocks instead of smooth slick rock. The trail is in Canyonland national park so they do maintain the trail to make it passable using concrete and cold patch in some of the steeper sections. I would rate Poison Spider even harder than the other two. It’s not maintained as well and you have to spend more time picking good lines. All three are rated 6’s. If you search on-line under Moab trail ratings you’ll find a lot more info on the trails and what they recommend for vehicles. If your stock I think you could do elephant hill but you’re going to be scraping bottom. With a 3inch lift and 285’s my steel skids took some unavoidable hits. There are a ton of trails out there. Chicken Corners is a lot easier but we had just as much fun. Let me know how it goes. 😉👍

@@jimerinrose6235 Thanks for the info. I will definitely be looking for some ratings on line. I should think about getting set up with some tires and more protection. I really like the way you set yours up. When my daughters can climb in no problem I'll get the lift to. Keep the great videos coming. You're sidekick really does a great job at keeping the camera on the action!

Brandywine Maintenance My Pleasure. This is a really good book www.amazon.com/Guide-Moab-Backroads-4-Wheel-Drive-Trails We used it a lot in Moab. These rigs are super capable stock the ground clearance is the only limitation I experienced. I’m super happy with my set up and would highly recommend it. You can always tie a rope to the rock sliders to help your daughter get in. 😂 My sidekick/wife does do a awesome job she’s a trooper!! We have a blast off-roading and making these videos.

Better skid plates, and a set of sliders and you’ll be fine. Just take your time, and get out to check your line when you’re in doubt.

@@PineBarrens75 I will be looking for sliders. Was able to drop the gas tank "skid pan" and it easily was pressed back out using a bottle jack and the weight of the truck at the hitch point. Flattened it right out. It was definitely a workout at fins and things and Hells Reveng. I will be looking for Elephant Hill Trail for sure. Happy trails!

Fabrice Calixte Thanks! 😉👍 On Road ride is way better than stock, no more nose dive or big sway in turns. I absolutely love it!!!

Will Stevens they are steel sliders made by RSG

I destroyed my factory running board a long time ago, those are steel sliders if I lost those I would have left my frame too! Lol 😂 I was told me they charge $1,500 to recover vehicles there, maybe that’s why they added the concrete.

Still the factory one. Never had to used it. ✊🪵

Roland Georges Thank!😉👍 3inch old man emu from Toytec

Any reliability issue after the 3inch lift? Thingking of getting 4runner, I heard that its best not to lift 4runner over 2.5"? Great video, I really enjoy it!

Rodney Horsan Thanks! No issues, caused by the lift. Remember if you add steel skids and sliders your 3inch lift is probably going to drop down a little. Truck drives way better than stock. I did add adjustable upper control arms. To help with alignment. +4 caster. After I did research I decided not to do the diff drop. The only front end part that has given me issues is the lower control arm bushings. They did not fail but I started getting a clunk when I used them hard and found to much play. I just put factory ones back in next time might upgrade to aftermarket bushings or lower control arms. Truck has 55k miles lift was done around 10k. Lots of hard off-road use since new. Love this truck, and would recommend it to anyone! 😉👍

@@jimerinrose6235 Thanks for the info!

@@jimerinrose6235 Do you have KDSS? I have it and it handles great on the highway. When you said rides better than stock what difference did it make? I'm really interested in the old man emu also. Did you go with OME 884 front coils and OME 889 rear coils?

i122luvu yes 3inch lift 33 tires full skids/sliders

Ched Lejano 285/70/17

@@jimerinrose6235 any rubbing at all with the OME lift with the 285s?

Racehoss if my caster is anything below +4 degrees it will rub. I have adjustable UCA’s which are great for getting the positive caster after the lift. I did have to move the front inner fender liner forward and remove the front mud flaps.

Amadeius C Not for off-roading

And four wheels are better than two!
